Many wonder what will come of the deep divisions in American society. What lessons do the Civil War and other historic periods of conflict offer for our own divided time? How can we use history well to understand the present? Join us for a conversation with Allen Guelzo and James Hankins, two of America’s greatest historians, who will reflect on these conversations in light of the Civil War and the Italian Renaissance.

Allen Guelzo is Senior Research Scholar in the Council of the Humanities at Princeton University. James Hankins is a Professor of History at Harvard University.
