What a useful resource.I certainly will love to see the CBC tapes or the transcript if available as they certainly will be most useful to my cross-cultural work in existential philosophy.Please consider and thank you for being an excellent curator.

Greg,

I’m not sure if you will check this, but I wanted to know if you were ever able to get copy of the CBC tapes. I’m working on a documentary that includes information about Becker and would love to see them. Please email me at Stephanie@honestenginetv.com if you have any information.

Thanks so much!

I am writing from the Ernest Becker Foundation in Seattle, Washington. Would love very much to get a copy of the “Dialogue on Man” lecture with Mr. Becker and Fulton Fisher. Please advise how I may do this and thanks for any help.

I often ask learned people if they have read “Denial of Death.” I used the book a lot in my last few masters courses in history. It would be such a thrill if you had a way to pass on the CBC tapes or files. I would love to see them. How great for you to have been there!

In the spring of 1972, Becker gave a six part video lecture with Fulton Fisher at the CBC studios in Vancouver, British Columbia. It was called, “Dialogue on Man,” and it put the two protagonists on a studio floor, with Fisher arguing for the scientific bent to our destiny, Becker the cultural anthropology of our destiny. Or something like that! I was in the audience and if anyone would like the “tapes” out of the CBC archives, I will try and pass them on. So far CBC has not responded to my entreaties.
