  • On the Future of our Educational Institutions - Second Lecture Part 2
    Oct 16 2026
    In which the weary battleground of public education reveals itself as a theatre of empty slogans and illusory goals, where the lofty ambition of classical learning is but a veil for confusion and neglect, and the nurturing of language and form is all too often forsaken. Here, amid the clash of a shallow modernity and a proud yet faltering German spirit, the true path to culture—steeped in rigorous discipline and reverence for the mother-tongue—lies obscured, awaiting patient rediscovery under diligent guidance.

    Oct 5 2026
    In which Zarathustra finds solace and kinship in the pure air with his beloved animals, the eagle and serpent, away from the company of the higher men, whilst an old magician wrestles visibly with his melancholy demon and muses on the nature of truth and poetry’s wild, impetuous spirit.
