Classicist, translator, and educator Brian Lapsa joins us from Europe to discuss faith, culture, and classical education across the Atlantic. A scholar of ancient education and an advocate for living Latin, Lapsa reflects on the decline of the humanities, the renewal of moral formation, and his work bridging British and American classical traditions.

In this episode, we discuss:
📖 The “long withdrawing roar” of faith in Britain—and why there’s still hope
📖 How late antiquity modeled education through imitation and moral exemplars
📖 What active (or “living”) Latin offers modern students
📖 How classical learning can restore intellectual virtue and cultural confidence
