Brilliant,fascinating and utterly compelling...An outstanding lecture/talk by Professor Williams. A true man of knowledge ,wisdom and compassion.... .....I fear humanity cannot ever overcome the compulsion to violence and it will lead soon to our demise. ..And then the endless cycle will begin again.

The best professor I ever had, bar none. My love of classics is down to him and him alone.

Ren茅 Girard got me here. I would never have read the Orestia otherwise. See Girard's book "Violence and the Sacred".
