In this episode, Dr. Orlandi sat down with Dr. Scott Roniger, Associate Professor of Philosophy at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, to discuss beauty, love, and faith. This time, the excuse was philosophical and literary ... all at once. Dr. Roniger, a philosophy of literature scholar, was recently the author of a paper bringing together the platonic symposium and Waugh's most famous novel. Tune in to hear about charm and beauty, about educating eros, and about metaphoric and embodied ascents to truth redemption. Hopefully, Dr. Roniger will visit us in person soon too.
