Lecture on Audio: Art & Mythology 114-A - "Civilization"

November 11, 2017 Larry Barnett

This is an audio of a lecture given on March 4, 1975 to his Art & Mythology class at Sacramento State University. It's a classic Kurt lecture, all at once an engaging, notes-free, improvised performance presenting scholarly information and humorous schtick woven within the serious truths of ancient wisdom. It  begins with an extended critical riff on receiving mailed sales material about Time-Life's offer of  Sir Kenneth Clark's "Civilization" educational slide-strips. It runs about an hour and takes a minute to begin playing. Enjoy!
