Mythic Mind - 25 - From Heraclitus to Kierkegaard
play

10/28/22 • 44 min

As a reminder, the public podcast feed is on a hiatus during the current Patreon-exclusive series on the Grimm fairy tales. However, so the public feed isn't completely silent, I'm going to start dropping some recycled content over there.
This episode is a lecture originally delivered for my "Philosophy and Christian Thought" course that surveys some important themes in the history of Western Thought from ancient Greece to Kierkegaard. This comes from early in my online teaching career, so delivery and audio quality is not superb, but hopefully the content will be of some use to you!

Mythic Mind - 04 - We Need More Butter and Responsibility
play

09/07/21 • 19 min

In this episode, I provide some personal lessons I've learned during the gap since the last episode and we look at the first half of Chapter One of Kierkegaard's The Concept of Anxiety. We discuss the ethical relationship between the individual human and the history of the human race. As far as we are, or should be, concerned, where does guilt reside, how is it passed through generations, and what is the individual's ethical task? Does shame have any positive value? Practically speaking, why does the individual's relation to guilt matter? I encourage you to check out my blog over at andrewnsnyder.com, join our new subreddit at reddit.com/r/mythicmind/ and to consider supporting me on Patreon at pateron.com/andrewnsnyder. I can only start providing content on a regular basis with your support!
