- Multiple DatesJan 29, 2025, 7:00 PM – 8:30 PMAustin Institute, 3298-3200 Fairfax Walk, Austin, TX 78705, USAIn this reading group, taking our cue from the volume, we will explore what it means to be human. We will look at some of the great statements on the basic objects of human desire, whether it makes sense to desire perfection, and whether it makes sense to want to be immortal.
