Starting 10/21: Edward Mendelson on W. H. Auden

Edward Mendelson on W. H. Auden
Space is limited—register today!
“Auden was fascinated by the unsolvable problem of how much of life is governed by necessity and how much is chosen through freedom. Are we simply compelled to change the course of our lives or do we choose when to make that change?,” writes Mendelson, renowned Auden scholar and Lionel Trilling Professor in the Humanities at Columbia.
