14 Cassettes [Transcript: 201 pages]

Wherever you have man, he is in this same strange quandary: that he must continue what others have done before him, and he must begin something what others must continue after him. Therefore, to convey conviction and to inherit conviction is the essence of your fruitful living.            

November 10, 1953

Another title for this series was "Fathers and Sons." It addresses history as a social process among generations. Rosenstock-Huessy uses biographical examples from American history to illustrate his points, with emphasis on Cotton Mather, Jonathan Edwards, John Quincy Adams, James Fenimore Cooper, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Herman Melville, Henry James, Sr., William James, and Henry Adams. Not all of the original lectures have survived; the series now consists of 14 partial or full 1-hour lectures.
