  In today's world, something strange is happening: Celebrities like Kat Von D and Russell Brand are embracing Catholicism, finding allure in its newfound status as a counter-cultural symbol among media personalities, influencers, and the literati. Tech titans like Elon Musk and Peter Thiel are shirking the rationalist modus-operandi, making open allusions to the arcane, and even funding research into occult phenomena.This unexpected shift raises pressing questions: What is driving these influential individuals in secular liberal democracies to embrace ancient religious institutions, fringe mysticism, and what only a decade ago would have been ridiculed as conspiracy?Late-Stage Babylon delves into this post-secular spiritual crisis, offering insights and guidance in navigating these turbulent swings of the spiritual pendulum. 
  As we enter a new age where the arcane and the obscure hold sway, Late-Stage Babylon serves as a guide, illuminating the path forward in the murky territory that's been brought about by the resurgence of long-dormant forces in the collective psyche.

  Phaedrus is one of the dialogues written by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato, and it explores the nature of love, beauty, and rhetoric. The dialogue is set on a hot summer day outside the walls of Athens, where Socrates and Phaedrus engage in a conversation about love and the art of rhetoric. 
  Throughout the dialogue, Socrates and Phaedrus discuss the power of love to inspire greatness and the role of rhetoric in communication and persuasion. They examine the different types of love and how they relate to beauty, knowledge, and the soul. They also explore the ethical implications of rhetoric and its ability to manipulate people's beliefs and opinions. 
  Phaedrus is one of Plato's most famous works, and it continues to be studied and debated by scholars and philosophers today. Its themes of love, beauty, and rhetoric are central to many philosophical and literary traditions, and its exploration of these concepts continues to be relevant to contemporary discussions in ethics, aesthetics, and communication studies.

  Scripting Empire - Broadcasting...

  Scripting Empire recovers the literary and cultural history of West Indian and West African writing at the BBC in order to rethink the critical mid-century decades of shrinking British sovereignty, late modernism, and mass migration to the metropole. Between the 1930s and the 1960s, a remarkable group of black Atlantic artists and intellectuals became producers, editors, and freelancers at the corporation. Operating at the interface of a range of literary and broadcast genres, this loose network of African Caribbean writers and thinkers prompt a reassessment of the aesthetic, formal, and political fallout of decolonization between the outbreak of World War II and the first airings of post-colonial independence. 
   
   
   
  Scripting Empire works comparatively across dozens of different programs spanning the General Overseas Service, Home Service, Light Program, and Third Program. Drawing upon a transnational archive of materials, including scripts, correspondence, periodicals, visual records, and sound recordings, it seeks to reposition the cultural contribution of West Indians and West Africans within a more pervasive and porous account of radio transmission, the legacy of which extends well beyond broadcasting.
