About this event
Why do we do things the way we do them? What do our manners reveal about what we value as a culture, and what it means to be human?
A remarkable number of our common social practices today find their origins in the classical Greco-Roman world.
Join this conversation with Margaret Visser, award-winning author and teacher, who has been called the "anthropologist of everyday life."
She is a pioneer in the realms of food and etiquette writing because of her zealous interest in understanding the "why" behind the norms we take for granted every day.
