Miller center here at the university of virginia, who president says is broad, long term in perspective, balanced, and of course expressed in words, the written word. The other culture is represented in this room in one sense by the presence of pat oliphant. So please breeds path oliphant. I applause even more so by the work of them path oliphant, which you see displayed on the screen. The culture he represents is not broad, it had a specific daily perspective over the course of more than 60 years as a cartoonist, producing more than 10,000 individual cartoons five days a week. In the denver post for several years. Washington star for several years.

It is something of a reunion in fact since kent was with us for years and years and spending his time at university of South Carolina.

And well look to explore the dynamics therein and to relate them to see what kind of questions they prompt us to ask about contemporary dynamics about the history they contain, about parallels to todays events, about the practice of democracy itself.
