Utilitarianism was one product of the Enlightenment, but so was Romanticism. As we begin to unpack these topics, Rabbi Rocklin will answer the following questions:

  1. Why did Bentham argue in favor of uncapped interest rates even if it would not be good for individuals?
  2. How do Bentham's final wishes—for his body to be dissected and his skeleton put on display—demonstrate the limits of the Enlightenment?
  3. What was novel about Blake's approach to children, particularly in his poetry?

Recommended Reading: Blake, William. "Jerusalem (And Did Those Feet in Ancient Time)." 1804.
