“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

Tim's Holiday Lectures Gift 7: X-Existence

This was the annual history of art lecture at the College of William and Mary and I gave it on January 28 of this year. Thanks to the fantastic Alan Braddock for his kindness before, during and after this. He's been such a helpful influence, and he's one of those people who go beyond the call of duty on a regular basis.

You'll hear something like a part of my book Humankind here. This year I devoted all my lectures another engagements to working through issues having to do with the books I've been working on, one for Verso and the other for Penguin.
