À propos de cet audio

In this second edition of his wide-ranging and accessible work, Jason M. Baxter puts our contemporary culture in conversation with literature and its “sister arts” to make the compelling—and sometimes chilling—case not just for the relevance but urgency of the humane tradition as we enter our “digital apocalypse.” Baxter draws on his areas of expertise, Dante and C.S. Lewis; his background in teaching the great books, art history, and music history; as well as his own travel literature to give his listeners an almost sensuous feeling for what the alternative to our tech-obsessed culture is.

This book is exactly what we need to hear today. I love anything Dr. Baxter writes, especially his "Introduction to Christian Mysticism" and "A Beginners Guide to Dante's Divine Comedy". This wonderful book though is one I can recommend widely to those not specifically interested in mysticism or Dante. It shines Truth on our current culture in a way that impacts the reader but also uplifts the reader and strengthens them to live fully as we are meant to live in this world at this time. I will reread it many times. Also it is read by the author who is a wonderful reader so it is just doubly delightful.

I can't say enough good things about this book!
