Word on Fire Institute | Ep. 33 | Solzhenitsyn’s Harvard Address — Gary Saul Morson @word-on-fire | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
In 1978, a Soviet dissident and former Gulag prisoner Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn stood before the graduating class of Harvard University and offered the commencement address. But it wasn’t the address they expected (or necessarily wanted). In fact, it caused great angst among the contented intellectual classes. Join me and Dr. Gary Saul Morson, eminent professor of Russian literature as we consider the shock and lasting relevance of Solzhenitsyn’s Harvard address.
