PORTABLE PROFESSOR™ is a series of exciting and informative lectures recorded by some of today's most renowned university and college professors. Each course introduces listeners to fascinating, and sometimes startling, insights into the intellectual forces that shape our understanding of the world. Each package includes 14 riveting lectures presented by notable professors as well as a book-length course guide.
The Bible is undoubtedly the most influential work of literature in Western culture. From Milton to Joyce, Shakespeare to Hemingway, generations of writers and thinkers have taken inspiration from the stories, poems, and parables found in the sacred volume. In this fascinating course, Professor Adam Potkay examines how the Bible—which continues to be one of the bestselling books ever—has been read and interpreted throughout history, and how its timeless themes can be found at the very roots of the cultural and literary traditions of the West.
Adam Potkay holds degrees from Cornell University, Johns Hopkins University, and Rutgers, where he received his Ph.D. He is currently Professor of English at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia, where he has taught since 1990. An internationally renowned scholar of eighteenth-century literature, Professor Potkay is also the recipient of the William and Mary Alumni Fellowship Award for Excellence in Teaching.
