After a week off, we resume on November 18 to discuss Iris Murdoch.

Then, the following week, we'll look at a popular philosophical text of the last few years--Randy Pausch's Last Lecture.  In this, please look for and "excavate" the philosophical meanings underlying his work, and the resonances with some of our other authors.

The Last Lecture became a book, but for our purposes we're looking at the original lecture.

Here is the transcript.

And here is the video.  Watching the ENTIRE video is optional, but please watch at least a few minutes of it to get a feel for the experience of it as an oral text.
