Economist John Maynard Keynes worked on a wide range of issues, from probability theory to business cycles and macroeconomic fluctuations. Northwestern faculty members Robert Gordon, the Stanley G. Harris Professor of the Social Sciences, and Lynne Kiesling, senior lecturer of economics, explore Keynes’s passions—from economics to literature and art—and the role the Bloomsbury group played in shaping them.
