Episode Description
An episode about Goths and Atlantis featuring the parapol goat Reid does not really need an introduction but you deserve one anyway. I will set the stage by talking about language magic and how it developed during the Renaissance after the kabbalists fled Spain.
We will trace the origins of this Word and practice back through the eras of the neoplatonic logos doctrine. Reading early church fathers, apostles, desert dwelling mystics and my absolute favorite women among the Beguines and Beghards during the High Middle Ages.
After this extended dreamy first act which might lull you to sleep in the best of ways, or have you thirsting for more in the night under this still quite full moon. Sebbe, Reid and I will tell you about the OG modern Atlantis researcher, Olaus Rudbeck (1630-1702).
Together with this mad genius we will go through strange runic translations of old Greek myths, newly arrived Icelandic sagas, as spoils of war from the continental 30 year war fill up the shelf of the Collegium of Antiquites, with the most priced being the Gothic Silver Bible.
