Polyester. All that and jealousy over olfactory inputs. Join us, won't you? Episode 405- Polyes-tsar
Live from the 2022 Catholic Imagination Conference in Dallas, TX, Nate and Rich interview Gregory Wolfe. Gregory Wolfe is a writer, editor, publisher, and teacher. He has been a pioneer in the resurgence of interest in the relationship between art and religion. He is the founder & editor of Slant Books, which is an independent, not-for-profit literary press. In 1989, Wolfe founded Image, which Annie Dillard has called “one of the best journals on the planet.” Now one of America's top literary quarterlies, Image is a unique forum for the best writing and artwork that is informed by—or grapples with—religious faith.
Writer, editor, publisher, and teacher, Gregory Wolfe has been called “one of the most incisive and persuasive voices of our generation” (Ron Hansen). Both as a thinker and institution-builder, Wolfe has been a pioneer in the resurgence of interest in the relationship between art and religion—a resurgence that has had widespread impact both on religious communities and the public square. As an advocate for the tradition of Christian Humanism, Wolfe has established a reputation as an independent, non-ideological thinker—at times playing the role of gadfly but ultimately seeking to be a reconciler and peacemaker. Special Guest: Greg Wolfe.

Segunda parte do novo episódio do Estante BSM, em que Stefani Onesko convida Silvio Grimaldo, Luciano Oliver e André Assi Barreto para discutir "A Beleza Salvará o Mundo", de Gregory Wolfe. O autor reflete em seus escritos a confiança ilimitada no debate racional e na ação política e o não entendimento da implicação da beleza na redenção do mundo, na possibilidade de renovação. Wolfe foi vencido pela sabedoria de Dostoiévski, visto que, este último analisa como a beleza está intimamente ligada ao bem e à verdade e como os três elementos são inseparáveis. Em um contexto, em que a verdade e a bondade são obscurecidas por regimes totalitários ou ideologias perturbadoras, a existência da beleza pode dar esperança ao mundo e por meio da beleza, as pessoas podem se religar à verdade e ao bem. É dessas ideias que nasce este livro. Vivemos numa época extremamente politizada. Guerras culturais e conflitos cada vez mais partidários têm reduzido a discussão pública a meras gritarias em disputas ideológicas. Deste modo, o ponto essencial criticado por Wolfe, é o comportamento conservador, cada vez mais ligado e próximo da política e das ideologias e ao mesmo tempo, mais distante da cultura e da arte no seu tempo, abandonando por desprezo e preconceito, campos tão essenciais. O autor não teme ao afirmar que “a maioria dos conservadores pensa na cultura como um museu, e não como uma continuidade orgânica. São todos a favor da promoção dos clássicos, mas quando se trata de cultura contemporânea e moderna, simplesmente se eximem”. Segundo Gregory Wolfe, os conservadores devem enriquecer a linguagem e elevar os debates através de um retorno às raízes mais profundas de nossa cultura. Faz-se necessário dialogar com grandes artistas e pensadores de outras épocas, sem perder a sensibilidade e as características do nosso tempo. O retorno dos conservadores à arte e à cultura se faz urgente. “Se a arte não pode salvar nossas almas, pode ao menos fazer muito para remir a época, dando uma verdadeira imagem de nós mesmos, tanto no horror e tédio a que estamos sujeitos, quanto na glória que, por raros momentos, podemos ter o privilégio de vislumbrar”.
