Description
In this fascinating and, at times, hilarious account of an improbable career, Ronnie Landau, classicist and modern historian, takes the reader from his beginnings in a small Jewish community in north-east England, to his diverse experience of teaching and lecturing in radically different educational settings.
Whether it is his account of cutting his teeth in a rough-and-tumble north London comprehensive, being a visiting tutor in uber-posh Eton, running a massive department in Europe's largest adult education Institute, being visiting professor in a Canadian university, located in an exotic English castle, or enthusing about Greek civilisation aboard cruise ships, this book will inform, engage and entertain.
This memoir also tells of the author's struggles to write about what he sees as the most important, universal messages of the Holocaust, and the intimidating demands of getting his first book published.
Penetrating, thought-provoking and often irreverent, this rich assembly of ideas and observations will challenge the way we think about the worlds of education and identity, and of recent history itself.
