In George R.R. Martin's world, no one is safe, and the good guys don't always win.
What made "A Song of Ice and Fire" a cultural phenomenon that captivated millions?
In this lecture, we will analyze how Martin took real medieval history and turned it into a sharp mirror reflecting human nature.
We will discuss the moral grayness of the characters, the fascinating struggle for the Iron Throne, and the biggest question of all: Why do humans continue to fight each other when the real threat to their existence is imminent?
