Excuse Me, Virgil, I Didn't Quite Get That: PURGATORIO, Canto XVIII, Lines 1 - 18
Virgil seemed to have come to a resting place in his monumental discourse on love: "Here's all I know . . . and all I don't know."But the pilgrim is less than satisfied. He wants Virgil to continue on, to show his work for these complex syllogisms.And Dante the poet is not done with Virgil either, given the mirrored structure of cantos XVII and XVIII.Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as we move beyond the mid-point of COMEDY and our pilgrim asks for more about how love is the seed of all human actions.If you'd like to help underwrite the many costs and fees associated with this podcast, please…
