Ropes Lecture
Series
Each winter, the Ropes Lecture Series
at the University of Cincinnati focuses
on a central theme, inviting prominent
writers and scholars for public lectures,
which are always free and open to
the public. The 2008 Ropes Lecture
Series explores the interrelations
of violence and literature in a post-9/11
world and seeks to understand how
human rights issues are central to
the humanities. We hope you will join
us.
All lectures will be held at 8:00
pm in ERC 427 (on the ground floor).
Cash and credit parking is available
at Woodside Garage, located next to
ERC. Take the garage elevator to the
main floor, exit the library's lobby,
and ERC (Engineering Research Center)
will be on your left (campus map <http://www.uc.edu/architect/documents/Logistics/logisticsbw.pdf>
and directions to campus <http://www.uc.edu/directions/main.html>
).
