The cardinal directions are markers of not just where we are in the world, but who we are. North, South, East, and West are much more than simply directions on a compass. Tonight on Inquiry we talk with broadcaster, curator, and critic JERRY BROTTON. He is a professor of English and History at the University of London. He will be discussing his fascinating new book: FOUR POINTS OF THE COMPASS: THE UNEXPECTED HISTORY OF DIRECTION.
