St. Augustine and a More Hopeful Politics, with Michael Lamb
Manage episode 356098972 series 3322177
Join Sam and political theorist Michael Lamb, to see how St. Augustine of Hippo (354–430 A.D.) helps us to navigate the bleak and cynical political culture of our day. Key to Augustine's approach is the virtue of hope — the virtue that prevents one from veering into the ditches of presumption or despair.
Michael Lamb serves as F. M. Kirby Foundation Chair of Leadership and Character at Wake Forest University, Executive Director of the Program for Leadership and Character, Associate Professor of Interdisciplinary Humanities, and Research Fellow with the Oxford Character Project. His most recent book, A Commonwealth of Hope: Augustine's Political Thought (Princeton University Press, 2022), develops the insights touched on briefly in this conversation.
