The Elizabeth T. Kennan Lecture by Richard Drayton, fellow of

What happens at the crossroads where one culture, or way of seeing,
meets another? Many contemporary academic disciplines explore
this as a problem of the margins. But this question is perhaps
the central intellectual and ethical question of our age. How
as teachers and students, as citizens, and as people sharing the
world, do we make sense of differences in values, worldview, styles
of perception, moral registers? How do we, in peace rather than
violence, rise to the challenge of other human beings? Room 101,
