A book talk by NYU historian Stefanos Geroulanos

September 17

5:00 - 7:00 pm
NAC 6/316 and via Zoom

We have been obsessed with prehistory for three hundred years, and books about the origins of humanity continue to dominate bestseller lists. Prof. Geroulanos will tell us why, arguing that claims about the earliest humans have not only shaped Western intellectual culture, but given rise to our modern world.

Stefanos Geroulanos is professor of history at NYU and director of the Remarque Institute. He is co-editor of the Journal of the History of Ideas; author of An Atheism that is not Humanist Emerges in French Thought (2010) and Transparency in Postwar France (2017); and co-author of The Human Body in the Age of Catastrophe (2018).
