Michael Drout: The Liberal Arts and Beowulf

Renowned Beowulf and Tolkien scholar Michael Drout joins me to talk about the two projects he is publishing through Signum University Press--How to Learn How to Think: What the Liberal Arts Are Good For, Anyway and The Beowulf Project. 

While not explicitly about Lewis or Tolkien, these subjects we cover this episode were near and dear to the heart of Lewis and Tolkien, as well as other members of the Inklings--many of whom were scholars.

I am also joined by friend of the show, Sørina Higgins, Editor-in-Chief of Signum University Press.

Next week: We'll be talking about C.S. Lewis' essay, "Religion and Rocketry," as well as Sørina's book, Shall These Bones Breathe?

Music for this episode is by The Medieval Jazz Quartet.
