Dante’s The Divine Comedy 2019/2020 Lecture 38: Paradiso's The Primum Mobile and Entry to Empyrean: Cantos 27-30

Update: 2020-03-03

Description

In this lecture we consider (a) the nature of space and time and how "the roots" of all the universe are contained in the Primum Mobile; (b) we think over several cosmological/theological questions: the relative speed of each sphere of heaven, the intelligence and memory of angels, and number of angels; and then (c) we ascend to the Empyrean and see a river of light.
