The Tanner Humanities Center’s second annual Evening with Great Books event was held at the Alta Club in downtown Salt Lake City on October 16. More than sixty community members and Center supporters enjoyed dinner and brief lectures from College of Humanities faculty, including some from the course, Great Books in the Humanities: Jordan Johansen on Homer’s Odyssey; Richard Preiss on William Shakespeare’s Richard III; Scott Black on Miguel de Cervantes’s Don Quixote; Chapman Waters on Immanuel Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason; and Nadja Durbach on Carlo Ginsberg’s The Cheese and the Worms.

Starting in 2024, An Evening with Great Books has become an annual Tanner Humanities Center event.
