Isidore's Pub, Episode 6: "Authority"

How does one make sense of the world? Where does one go to find the answers that are most important?

Welcome back to another edition of Isidore's Pub where Devin O'Donnell considers the origin of words and their forgotten meaning.

In this episode, Devin dives into the cultural crisis in which we find ourselves. It is precisely because we have lost sight of the authority which comes from books, writings, and namely the Logos Himself, that we’ve become unmoored. Culture will remain in peril until we recover the weighty and ancient pronouncements of the auctores.

Watch to learn more about the Latin etymology of the word “authority,” and set yourself anew on solid ground.
