  • Résumé

  • Dr Sebastian Morello rejoins The Two Cities Podcast to discuss one of our mutual loves - JRR Tolkien's Legendarium and the political philosophy within it. Topics explored include: the politics of the Shire; subsidiarity; the dichotomy between authority and power; monarchy and regnative prudence; the common good; the corruption of power as exemplified by Saruman and Denethor; the mystery of Tom Bombadil; technology and nature; and tradition vs. 'progress'. We conclude by discussing Tolkien's political theology and the dynamic of fallen men seeking the infinite in a finite world.

    Dr Morello is the author of the recently released book, Mysticism, Magic, and Monasteries: https://osjustipress.com/products/mysticism-magic-monasteries

    He is also the co-host of The Gnostalgia podcast: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCC9ajVAJ50H6OigNptVECww
