Rebooting the Thucydides Roundtable
[Mark Safranski / “zen“]
Like all of you, we (except Lynn Rees) were all caught off-guard by the unanticipated and dramatic results of the presidential election this week. It was obvious that most of the bandwidth on social media was consumed with the implications of the election of Mr. Trump and the inter- and intra -partisan rancor that has followed in its wake. It was unlikely that new posts at the Thucydides Roundtable were going to be able to compete for attention with that kind of event.
Now however with the realization of a very different administration coming to power in Washington next January sinking in, the appetite for lessons from Thucydides may suddenly increase 🙂 Therefore, we are rebooting the Roundtable schedule – Book Four posts will begin this Monday with the schedule consequently adjusted thereafter.
In the meantime, if you have not read any of our series or missed a few contributions, you can get started right here.
