Reading Thucydides with Jakub Grygiel

In the final week of Political Studies, fellows will return to the question of statesmanship, what elevates it above ordinary political leadership, and separates it from tyranny. In this seminar, led by Jakub Grygiel of the Catholic University of America, fellows will focus on Thucydides’ masterpiece, The Peloponnesian War, and examine a series of strategic challenges and responses to them.
