At these periodic campus gatherings, experts of all sorts-drawn from many different institutions of higher learning and the world at large-convene to reach beyond their specialties and, through confidential discussion, learn from each other. A Community of Scholars will convey the diversity and vibrancy of these proceedings by offering 13 essays written by Seminar chairs and other leading participants. The introduction explains how the Seminars came into being, why they still exist, and why they matter"--cProvided by publisher.20aColumbia University. bUniversity Seminars xHistory. 0aHumanities. 4aHumanidades 4aEducación superior  0aLearning and scholarship. 4aUniversidades zEstados Unidos 4aConocimiento y erudición 1 aVinciguerra, Thomas, d1963-2021eeditor 08iOnline version:tCommunity of scholarsdNew York : Columbia University Press, [2020]z9780231552912w(DLC) 2020009253
