If you enjoy the video and would like to support my work, you can do so here: https://thedrewarchive.com/donate/ In this video, I cover: • What the Great Books collection is and why it matters • The story of how I found my set • The Syntopicon—a research tool that turns the Great Books into an encyclopedia of ideas • What I’ve actually read from the collection in one year • The pros and cons of owning this 60-volume set • Why physical books matter in an age of “brain rot” culture If you’re considering picking up a set, or you’re simply curious about the Great Books tradition, this video is for you.
