Stephen Greenblatt and Tony Kushner, Live at the NYPL: "The Rise and Fall of Adam and Eve"

On September 28, 2017, the Holberg Prize and the New York Public Library co-presented a facilitated conversation between 2016 Holberg Laureate Stephen Greenblatt and playwright Tony Kushner. This event was an installment of The New York Public Library’s series LIVE from the NYPL. Greenblatt and Kushner discussed the topic of Greenblatt’s new book, The Rise and Fall of Adam and Eve, which explores the story of humanities first parents–the origin story that is common to all the Abrahamic religions.
