Professor Brian Catlos, Religious Studies, will be delivering a lecture "From Bobby Fisher & Bob Dylan To Bill Gates: Islam, Medieval Spain, and the Roots of the Modern West"
Rock and roll, chess and the digital revolution: what does Islam have to do with modern Western culture? Everything. Find out why the medieval Spain and the Mediterranean world occupy a crucial place in the evolution of what we call "the West," and why scholars are reconfiguring deeply rooted notions of where and how western culture originated and developed.
