EarthDiverse: Understanding the Classical World

todd from EarthDiverse

Interested in World History? Consider enroling in Peter Dornauf’s course entitled “Understanding the Classical World and its Impact on Modern Life.” This series of 8 talks, from our Introductory World History series, explores and reveals the primal influences of classical Greece & Rome, and explains how these influences manifest today and get played out in the modern world. Knowing these things helps not only with our sense of identity, but also provides us with a point of reference against which to measure our values and make critical judgments.

Begins Wed 19 October, 11:00am-1:00pm for 8 consecutive weeks.

EarthDiverse, 401 Anglesea Street (3 shops north of the Hamilton Central Bus Station, located upstairs). For more information and registration please visit our website.

Favourite holiday finds

Hi there,
We're putting together an article on Kiwis' favourite holiday finds, and would love to hear about any great new places you discovered on your holidays and are happy to share.
It could be a beach you'd never been to before, a walking track you'd never tried, a town that pleasantly surprised you or a particularly good cafe, restaurant or bar. Please feel free to comment here or to message me directly. Please put 'NFP' in your comment or message if you do not want your name or suggestion published.
Thank you very much in advance.
