For the 14th episode of The Re/al/ign, I spoke with a person I’ve long admired, Edward Butler. Edward is a professor of philosophy who focuses primarily on Greek philosophy. At the same time, he’s also the closest that the West has to a resident scholar in polytheism.
You might remember Edward Butler from an essay I wrote, “Polytheistic Pluralism and Sacred Cows.” Despite being one of the most soft-spoken and deeply kind people you’ll ever meet, he was “cancelled” for the profound work he’s done to bridge Western reconstructions of polytheism and Hinduism’s long history of polytheistic pluralism.
Our conversation lasted close to 90 minutes, and is available in video and audio formats first to paid supporters of From The Forests of Arduinna and also paid supporters of A Beautiful Resistance. It will release to the general public on 18 February.
