#283. The Politically Incorrect Guide to Western Civilization
The Politically Incorrect Guide to Western Civilization (11 Hours): Western civilization is under attack. At universities and in the media, professors and pundits decry Western civilization as exploitative, destructive, and without value. But fear not: coming to its defense is this "P.I." guide to Western civilization. Using historical evidence, Professor Anthony Esolen knocks down the relativist arguments and shows how the West laid the cornerstones for all of modern civilization, including historical, artistic, and intellectual achievements. We owe it to history and to ourselves to acknowledge Western civilization's role in shaping our values and our world.
