The Spanish Inquisition remains one of history's most complicated institutions, its legacy shaped as much by legend and polemic as by archival record. Join linguist and historian Nettah Yoeli-Rimmer as he examines the Inquisition not simply as an instrument of religious persecution, but as a calculated tool of state-building under Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile. Explore how a fragmented kingdom gave rise to a unified Spanish identity and the Inquisition's impacts on Spain's Jewish community.
A viewing of the online lecture will be held in the Event Center at Abbot Public Library, followed by a discussion session.
Registration is required and limited to 35. Please register at <a href="https://tinyurl.com/RS-Spanish" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">tinyurl.com/RS-Spanish</a>. Can't attend in person? Please register for the program or join the Wait List. Everyone who is registered will be sent the recording.
Nettah Yoeli-Rimmer studied French and Spanish literature before going on to get a master’s in European culture at the University of Cambridge. He has traveled extensively and has many years of experience leading educational adventures in France, Spain and Italy. He has recently completed a Ph.D. in 19th-century Spanish literature. In addition to his principal research, he regularly writes for a number of publications on urban history and architecture.

We now think of George Washington as America’s foremost patriot, but he came to accept war and independence only slowly. Far from embracing his selection as commander-in-chief, he feared it would lead to his ruin - and possible death. Join author and historian Dr. Edward Lengel as he explores how Washington’s hope for America’s future led him to take on leadership in the struggle for independence. Celebrate the United States of America’s 250th anniversary in 2026 through the lens of Washington’s leadership in the Revolutionary War.
A viewing of the online lecture will be held in the Event Center at Abbot Public Library, followed by a discussion session.
Registration is required and limited to 35. Please register at <a href="https://tinyurl.com/RS-Washington" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">tinyurl.com/RS-Washington</a>. Can't attend in person? Please register for the program or join the Wait List. Everyone who is registered will be sent the recording.
Edward G. Lengel is an award-winning historian and educator. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Virginia, where he directed the Washington Papers Project and later held senior roles in public history. An author, speaker, and battlefield guide, Lengel has written 14 books on American history, including the official history of Colonial Williamsburg and “General George Washington: A Military Life.” He is a corecipient of the National Humanities Medal and has won two writing awards from the Army Historical Foundation.
