Date and Time

12:00PM - 01:00PM EST

Czech Zone 2:
Comenius at 350!
In Czech and English.
 

On the occasion of the 350th anniversary of the death of the 17th century poet, pedagogue, and theologian John Amos Comenius (1592-1670), students of Czech come together with Houghton Library curators to perform dialogues and vignettes in an online montage of words, images, and music. Have you ever wondered what a beehive is and how it works? Why Cotton Mather invited Comenius to lead Harvard College?  

Tune in for a good old allegorical schooling on the hows and whys of the world on Friday December 4th, from 12 to 1pm.
