Jessica Hooten Wilson on Solzhenitsyn against propaganda

<p><strong>In this episode, we're bringing you a presentation that was delivered as part of the 2021 </strong><a href="https://www.acton.org/lecture-series" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Acton Lecture Series</strong></a><strong> featuring Jessica Hooten Wilson speaking on Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and his fight against propaganda using art to force "even an opposing heart to surrender." Through fiction, Solzhenitsyn provides a way to love our so-called enemies, encourage conversation rather than silencing, and, even when all appears despairing, open the door to hope.</strong></p><br><p><a href="https://www.acton.org/religion-liberty/volume-33-number-1/solzhenitsyn-prophet-america" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Solzhenitsyn: Prophet to America</a></p><p><a href="https://www.acton.org/publications/transatlantic/2019/07/15/solzhenitsyns-advice-free-world" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Solzhenitsyn's advice to the free world</a></p><p><a href="https://blog.acton.org/archives/110322-solzhenitsyn-freedoms-habits-and-hindrances-video.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Solzhenitsyn: Freedom's habits and hindrances</a></p><p><a href="https://www.acton.org/alexander-solzhenitsyn" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Alexander Solzhenitsyn - Religion & Liberty</a></p><p><a href="https://blog.acton.org/archives/105195-aleksandr-solzhenitsyn-the-dragon-slayer.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, the dragon slayer</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
