The Great Gatsby continues to inspire and withstand the tests of time. This class will examine the masterful way author F. Scott Fitzgerald infuses fiction with fact to both cast and sweep away the glamour of the American Dream. Join this class in rereading the Jazz Age novel that both defined and decried the opulence of “The Roaring 20’s.” Students must purchase a copy of The Great Gatsby prior to the first class.

We live in difficult times with uncertainty. The term“lasting happiness”may seem preposterous to us given the world’s suffering. Nevertheless, two men, the Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu, have undergone a combined fifty years of exile as they lived through each of their own nation’s violence and suffering. Having both earned the Nobel Prize for Peace both men present a vision that allows for a spiritual peace. The Book of Joy is a New York Times Bestseller. We will discuss our common spiritual humanity and provide directions for a spiritual path. Meditation practice and teachings will be an ongoing part of these classes. We highly recommend the book is purchased and read, available in both print and e-reader forms, prior to class. Note: This Structured Remote Course (SR) is entirely online.
