2 | Only a God Can Save Us ft. Eva Brann

The Question Concerning Technology: Ancient & Modern

On this week’s episode I am joined by retired St. John’s College tutor (and living legend) Eva Brann. She taught at the college for more than sixty years, and is the author of over twenty books, including The World of the Imagination, The Music of the Republic, Homeric Moments, and The Logos of Heraclitus. Ms. Brann is also part of an august Plato translating team that has done the Statesman, Sophist, Symposium, Phaedo and Meno.

Our discussion centers around the nature of technological thinking and the relationship between ancient Greek and Roman thought and our own day.

UNTIMELY MEDS
Untimely Meds — The Most Radical Podcast on the Internet
Conversations that go beyond the news cycle, beyond the "takes," and beyond the so-called culture war to get to the bottom of what is going on today. From the Latin radicalis, meaning “roots,” this show is “radical” because what is sought is the origin of things, the foundations of our world. For in an age of uncertainty, the only medication is untimely meditations.
