Join John and Nicole for a conversation with Drs. John and Helen Freeh, AMI Senior Fellows and pioneers in liberal learning. We discuss the founding of Kateri College of the Liberal and Practical Arts (https://katericollege.org) and Helen’s course in the Magnus Fellowship on Tolkien and Friendship in Lord of the Rings.

Fellowship Q&A with AMI Senior Fellow, Dr. Anthony Esolen on the first book of Milton’s Paradise Lost. Is Milton showing off or alining himself with the great epics of the past? Does Milton characterize the will of the angels as perfect and unchanging? Is Satan’s will his own? Was Milton influenced by Descartes? What about Dante? Why does Milton have the devils use gold to build? Listen and benefit.

Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) holds the Catholic Church's title of Doctor Communis (Common Doctor) meaning that after Christ and the Apostles who were blessed by Christ, Thomas is her greatest teacher. What does the Common Doctor’s work have to do with that of Dante? More than you might think. Join us for AMI President Steven Cortright’s first class in the Magnus Fellowship.
