Summary: "One of the proudest achievements of modernity is its investment in freedom. However, we seem in important respects, now to be letting that freedom slip from our grasp. We are falling back into Fate." In the 2002 Massey Lectures, Margaret Visser explores how the struggle to find meaning in our lives is helped by an understanding of the ancient world we came from.
