Accolades: Warren Goldstein
Posted 8/24/2005
Warren Goldstein, professor of history and chair of the department, has an article in the current issue of Yale Alumni Magazine titled “What Would Plato Do? A (Semi-)Careerist Defense of the Liberal Arts.”
Read Goldstein's article, "What Would Plato Do?" He also reviewed David Block’s Baseball Before We Knew It: A Search for the Roots of the Game in the Times Literary Supplement of Aug. 12. “Given North American baseball fans’ nearly inexhaustible appetite for the arcana of their favourite sport, astonishingly few scholars have ever undertaken the detailed historical and anthropological research to find out where the game actually began," he writes.
Goldstein, the author of William Sloane Coffin, A Holy Impatience, also taught a week-long course at Star Island , N.H., this month titled “Preaching that Changed the World.” The subject of his next book will be religious liberalism in the second half of the 2Oth century and its continuing importance in spite of the dramatic growth and increased political power of evangelicals and fundamentalists.
