Dr Stephen McInerney - Australian Identity in a time of Multiculturalism and Poetry in the TikTok Age
Stephen McInerney is Dean of Studies and Director of the Centre for the Study of the Western Tradition at Campion College, a leading liberal arts institution in Sydney.
He has a doctorate from the University of Sydney, a first-class honours degree in Arts from the Australian National University where he was awarded the university medal in English. He served for many years as a member of the executive of the Ramsay Foundation.
Stephen is also a published poet.
Today we discuss:
1. What he sees as the major threats to Western Civilization and Australian identity today
2. How his views politically have changed over time and how he grew to better understand the views of his grandfather
3. Whether classical education and “telling a better story” like the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship famously suggests is a sufficient response to the challenges we face
4. How academics should engage with the popular culture and how to get people interested in poetry in the age of TikTok.
And much more.
