Examining the mark on modern life left by the innovations of ancient Greece, THE OWL'S LEGACY is a thirteen episode feast of ideas. Based on the model of the ancient banquet, THE OWL'S LEGACY brings together leading artists and intellectuals to drink wine and exchange ideas in four places: Paris, Tbilisi, Athens and Berkeley. Thirteen words of Greek origin that cover many aspects of the human experience are examined in order to find the ancient Greece that shape our thoughts, inspire our writers, influence our politics, and form our ideals of beauty.
