More Christ Episode Eighty-Seven: Carlo Lancellotti and Paul Kingsnorth: Modernity, Plato, Science, Marxism, God, Religion and Mystery

Welcome to More Christ. We seek to bring some of the world's most interesting and insightful guests to discuss life's central and abiding questions.  In this eighty seventh episode in a series of discussions, I'm joined once more by Paul Kingsnorth and Carlo Lancellotti.   Paul Kingsnorth is an English writer who lives in the west of Ireland. He is a former deputy-editor of The Ecologist and a co-founder of the Dark Mountain Project.  Kingsnorth's nonfiction writing tends to address macro themes like environmentalism, globalisation, and the challenges posed to humanity by civilisation-level trends. His fiction tends to be mythological and multi-layered.  Follow him here: https://www.paulkingsnorth.net/ https://paulkingsnorth.substack.com/ Prof. Carlo Lancellotti is a Professor and Chair in the Department of Mathematics at the College of Staten Island. He received his Doctorate in Applied Mathematics from the University of Virginia in 1998. His main field of scholarship is the kinetic theory of plasmas and gravitating systems. He has also translated and edited two volumes of works of 20th-century Italian political philosopher Augusto Del Noce. He is one of the organizers of the New York Encounter, a large weekend long cultural festival held once a year in New York City. He was one of the co-founders of the Crossroads Cultural Center, which for over fifteen years has been organizing cultural events around the country.
