36 Abolition of Man Part 1
Episode description
This episode, the first of three discussing Abolition of Man with Dr. Nathan Pinkoski, a former EICS student and current Assistant Professor of Humanities at the Hamilton Center at the University of Florida, considers why it should be viewed as one of the great dystopian texts of the 20th century. Prompted by a review of “The Green Book,” Lewis gave a series of lectures 80 years ago which were later published as Abolition of Man. In the work Lewis argues that “[t]he practical result of education in the spirit of The Green Book must be the destruction of the society which accepts it.” Here in this episode, we find out why.
