Why the Arts and Humanities Matter: A Podcast Talk – Discourses on Minerva

On Wednesday, 9 March 2022, I joined Erich Prince (Open with Erich Prince) to discuss Eric Voegelin, VoegelinView (the journal I’m editor of), and the importance of the arts and humanities and the idea of an aesthetic life in the 21st century. Included in the discussion are some personal stories about me and my adventures in hiking and appraisal of romanticism and why the romantic aesthetic way of life is so, so important in our contemporary society.
