Aeschylus and the author of the Book of Job were at their ascendancy at about the same time, like two great morning stars of the world's literature. Each is important because in his work there is felt for the first time in the literatures of the world the spiritual awakening of mankind. Each cries, in the anguish of a tortured soul against the injustice of fate and of God, and that cry is symbolic of the first upward step in the sipitham progress of man.

Today at 12 o'clock in Sever '26 Professor Gulick will speak in Gulick 11 of the "Prometheus Bound" of Aeschylus, one of the most intense and moving of the early week tragedy.
