Online Seminar Series
Love – Gunnar’s Daughter by Sigrid Undset
Saturday, March 27, 2021
Othello said about himself that he “loved not wisely but too well.” It seems that one can love things too much, but can one really love someone too much? Does the answer to that question depend on what is meant by love? Perhaps more fundamentally: are there different kinds of love? This series will devote itself to a discussion of the mystery and majesty of love.
