Charleston Literary Festival Collaborative Lecture
|
The Charleston Literary Festival Collaborative Lecture, co-sponsored by the Waring Historical Library and the Charleston Literary Festival, will be held Friday, November 6, 2020, at 3:30 PM virtually on WebEx. Dr. Mark Honigsbaum will discuss his book The Pandemic Century: One Hundred Years of Panic, Hysteria, and Hubris and the scientific dreams of preventing catastrophic outbreaks of infectious diseases since 1918. His book exposes the limits of science against nature, and how these crises are shaped by humans as much as microbes. Registration is required to reserve your seat and receive log in information. The event is free and open to the public. Please register here: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/p99qkpa4/register. For more information, please contact the Waring at 843-792-2288 or waringhl@musc.edu. |
This lecture is part of our first expanded lecture series. The Waring Society Lecture Series provides a look at new, fresh, and innovative research and publications on the history of the health sciences. Each lecture will be presented in a hybrid format, part formal recorded presentation, and part live discussion online with the author-historian. Those who wish to attend will need to register so that you can receive the necessary link to join the presentation, as well as a more detailed description of the logistics.
