Description: The Sidney Greats lectures aims to provide accessible introductions to great books, ideas, questions, and figures. The lectures themselves are designed for undergraduate and graduate members of Sidney Sussex College, but we hope that as Podcasts they will also prove interesting to a wider audience in Cambridge and the world beyond. Lectures this term are on Dickens, Dostoevsky, Environmentalism, and international relations after the age of American hegemony.
