Certainly, many 20th/21st centruy cultural trends have their roots in Romantic trends, and, in many ways, "the romantic search for meaning in life" continues today. 6 Tuesdays, Jan. 8-Feb. 12, 2013 Coffee at 6.30; Lectures at 7.00 Registration fee: $15/6 weeks Contact Bryan at bdwylie@gmail.com or 905.526.9828 **********
