Lecture: Greenwich Village and West Village with the Zuckermans
This presentation is designed to explore the historical significance of Greenwich Village as well as its impact on society, the sciences, and the arts. Literary lions such as Mark Twain, Eugene O’Neill, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Edgar Allen Poe, O’ Henry, Clement Clark Moore, and Edith Wharton will be featured. Additionally, we will discuss the “Ashcan” School of Art, origins of many clichés such as “up the river”, “keeping up with the Joneses”, and “86 It!”, several of the greats of music and comedy who called Greenwich Village and the West Village home, NYU and Washington Square Park which are the cornerstones of the area, and some of the great events that occurred in this iconic New York City neighborhood.
