Episode 36: Travel Medicine Kit—Madrid, Where Jane Saw a Bullfight

Description:

The Hull House Museum in Chicago has one particular item on which they have lavished special attention.  Instead of a paper label stuck to the wall simply telling what the object is, they commissioned a book to draw every visitor into a slow museum experience.  I tracked down and asked its author, Terri Kapsalis, what role travel played in shaping Jane Addams and Hull House ... and hope listening like this evaporates borders.  Special thanks to the musician, Dana Boulé.
