Nicolaus Cusanus (b.1401)

In the quiet hours of twilight, we drift into the contemplative realms explored by Nicolau Cusanus, where philosophy gently collides with the divine. His profound musings bring us De Docta Ignorantia, a dialogue on the bounds of human understanding and the paradox of knowing through unknowing. This journey extends through De Concordantia Catholica, where the intertwining of ecclesiastical governance and spiritual wisdom paints a panorama of harmonious coexistence. As night deepens, let the mystical echoes of De Visione Dei guide our thoughts to places where the divine gaze meets ours, inviting a serene encounter with the infinite.This episode is hosted by William Davis.
