About this listen

In our culture numerous works of literature use magic and other pagan tropes as storytelling devices. This includes cultural Titans like Harry Potter and Christian works like the Lord of the Rings and the Chronicles of Narnia.

As Dante in the Divine Comedy meets his favorite pagan Poets, we will explore the role pagan ideas play in fiction today.

Along the way we will meet biblical magicians, demonic babies, and other myths and legends! So come, grab some marshmallows, come by the hellfire and join us for this weeks journey in the Divine Comedy!
