Heather McHugh: The Unwary Angel: Inquiry and Empathy (July 2014)

$5.00

“The role of art,” says faculty member Heather McHugh, “is to remind a mind that thinks it has made itself up.” Mc Hugh’s lecture takes on inquiry and empathy—and inquiry as empathy–through discussions of the poetry of Miroslav Holub, the writings of physicist Richard Feynman, and others. The two video clips referenced in this talk may be found on YouTube at
