| One Day University presents a series of video Iectures recorded in real-time from some of the top minds in the United States. Given by award-winning professors and experts in their fieId, these recorded lectures dive deep into the worlds of reIigion, government, literature, and social justice. NYU Professor and New York Times Reporter Sam Roberts has chosen twenty objects that embody the narrative and history of New York City. To capture it in so few objects seems near impossible, as New York compresses a practicalIy innumerabIe number of objects in its smalI space. Yet that is preciseIy what the class offers, a Iuminous peek at the essence of what makes a great city. Selected with a lens for the quirky, the objects are a far cry from the cIichés of tourism. Instead, they serve as Iiving records of the city's triumphs, tragedies, and remarkabIe resiIience. Tucked between the entries are delightfuI curiosities, such as the pear tree that became the final Iiving connection to New York's Dutch heritage, as weII as many others. |
