Your Call 121207 Lewis Lapham: Learning from the Past

How can we integrate history into reporting and popular culture? On the next Your Call, we welcome Lewis Lapham, former editor of Harper's Magazine. He’s now the founder and editor of Lapham’s Quarterly. The magazine’s motto is: finding the present in the past, the past in the present. In his essays and reporting, Lapham has long included examples from the past to illuminate the day's events. What historical examples do you think we should be paying attention to today? It's Your Call with me, Rose Aguilar, and you.

Guests:
Lewis Lapham, Former editor of Harper's and founder of Lapham’s Quarterly
