Today at noon, AEI will host an event “The state of the American mind: Anti-intellectualism in America more than 25 years after Allan Bloom.” AEI was fortunate to host Bloom on two other occasions. He was one of the first lecturers in AEI’s highly regarded Bradley Lecture series, joining Irving Kristol, Allan Meltzer, Robert Bork, Gertrude Himmelfarb, Michael Novak, and Walter Berns in the inaugural season. His subject, Madame Bovary and “Madame Bovary” and Bourgeois Freedom. Then in 1988, Bloom joined Charles Murray and Harvard’s Edward Banfield to discuss The Pursuit of Happiness: Then and Now. The wide-ranging discussion touches on topics much in the news today including inequality. The interview appeared in AEI’s magazine Public Opinion.
