 nd: 2013-01-25\n\n 'A magnificent achievement.' - David Walker Howe\, auth
 or of What Hath God Wrought\nFar more than slavery was at stake in 1858\, 
 when challenger Abraham Lincoln debated incumbent Stephen Douglas seven ti
 mes in the race for a U.S. Senate seat from Illinois. In Lincoln's Tragic 
 Pragmatism\, literary critic John Burt examines the overarching and still 
 relevant questions posed by the Lincoln-Douglas debates: Can a liberal pol
 itical system be used to mediate moral disputes? And if it cannot\, is vio
 lence inevitable?\nJoin us for an evening with Brandeis English professor 
 John Burt\, as he discusses what historian John Stauffer has called\, 'A b
 rilliant\, ground-breaking book with fresh insights on almost every page.'
 \nParking is available directly behind Back Pages in the Crescent Street L
 ot (no charge after 6 PM).
