Mr. Edwin Faust gives the lecture, Original Sin in Fact and Fiction. Mr. Faust recounts his childhood introduction to the Good, the True and the Beautiful as it was conveyed through stories of the biblical heroes, the fall in the garden and the birth of the Savior. We live within the greatest story ever told - the redemption of mankind. Literature is a powerful lens through which to understand and the redemption story. By comparing fictional stories from two literary masters, Albert Camus, an entrenched atheist, and Flannery O’Connor, a devout Catholic, Mr. Faust demonstrates that good literature must address the universal condition of man - Original Sin.
