Ancient Greek Thought and Ideas

The Lecture Friday Series continues at the Hellenic American Academy with a very interesting lecture – video presentation on the influence that Ancient Greek Thought and ideas had on writing the American Constitution.

The attending audience will view a video documentary produced by Project Paideia, showing the important role that the Greek philosophy and legal system played in informing our founding fathers thought when they undertook the framing of the Constitution.

Dr George Kouvertaris, professor of Sociology at Northern University, will elaborate on the most significant points made in the documentary and will offer his own thoughts on the high esteem the Greek civilization was held by our constitutional framers.

This wonderful lecture – presentation, appropriate for all ages, will be given on Friday, November 21, 7:30 pm at the Academy’s auditorium, 1085 Lake Cook Rd, Deerfield, IL.

Admission is free.
