In our final lecture, witness the emergence of Christianity against the backdrop of the Roman world. Explore the life and teachings of Jesus - both the man and the idea he represented. We will analyse his teachings through the lens of ancient Greek philosophy and put his miracles to the test using our current scientific knowledge.

Embark on an intellectual journey that traverses the evolution of religious thought, unravelling the tapestry of belief systems from the ancient times of Zoroaster to the birth of Christianity.

Join us for a thought-provoking series of five lectures that explore the profound shifts in human understanding from Mythos to Logos, and the transformative milestones in the history of the Abrahamic religions. We will examine the evolution of ancient religion critically with the help of reason and science, as well as poetry.

The lectures follow each other but can be attended separetely. 

These lectures are part of The Poetic Reason Series, a series of lectures based on “The Poetic Reason: Or Enquiry into the Divine” (Azara, 2021), an investigation into divinity as seen through the lenses of history, philosophy and science - but also the heart.
