The Sphere of Mercury, with Prof. Robert-Louis Abrahamson

A Conversation about the Sphere of Mercury in Paradiso, and how the Transcendent and Divine Truth is shining through the bigger scales of Empires, Civilizations and Humanity itself.

One of the main arguments in the Second Sphere is that on a cosmic scale, Humanity is a young species with a very recently emerged self-awareness, moral capacity, and Free Will. And over the longer time spans, we need to align both spiritually and with our Institutions and Civilizations with the Transcendent Good and Truth, argues Beatrice.

Hosts are Richard Emerson and English Professor Robert-Louis Abrahamson.

Professor Abrahamson also has podcast with three seasons on Dante here: https://eveningunderlamplight.substack.com/

Music: "Gregorian Chants", by Kevin MacLeod.
