An introduction to the great books and the great conversation. In this episode, I (Christian Poole) also cover questions like: Why read the great books? What makes a great book? Why focus on the great books of the West and not the East? Also covered is the Great Books of the Western World set, which I use extensively in this podcast and channel.
