Watch our conversation with University of Chicago historian Ada Palmer on the nature of intellectual transformation. Looking across more than 500 years of European history—from Medieval scholasticism to the Enlightenment—we examine the relationship between ideas and historical change.

The event is part of Conversations @Graham, our new series featuring big ideas discussions with extraordinary scholars and innovators who teach in the Graham School’s Open Program.
