Following the famous “five stages of grief” model developed by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, I present a typology of psychological responses to ‘The Crisis’ in both the temporal and spiritual spheres.

An exclusive first interview with the author of Inferno: A Journey Through Modern Hell in Search of Eternal Truth, Augustine Virgil

I am joined by Augustine Virgil (Fourth Eclogue Substack - https://goodvirgil.substack.com/) for a first look at his new book on the modern media hellscape, published by Stabat Mater Press.

https://stabatmaterpress.com/products/inferno?pr_prod_strat=collection_fallback&pr_rec_id=b97929cc9&pr_rec_pid=9939468845341&pr_ref_pid=9938877972765&pr_seq=uniform

We explore the outer rings of the infernal landscape; the quasi liturgical and religious nature of false political movements; the discordian officially-approved conspiracy sphre; the Neo-Nietzschean ‘land of sun and steel’; and the gnostic spheres of the light magicians and the perfecti.

LA COMMEDIA MODERNA is a full length trilogy that is to be published by independent Traditional Catholic publisher Stabat Mater Press, with the INFERNO released on the 8th of December 2025, the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. It will then be followed by the two sequels: PURGATORIO and PARADISO.

A major feature of contemporary politics, media and culture is the humiliation ritual. Will Tucker and I explore Aristotle's writings on Tyranny and its means of preservation, including humiliation of the subjects.
Mr Tucker presents his research on the occult metaphysics of ritual humiliation; Noahidism as 'decapitation through humiliation'; Nicholas de Cusa's concept of "learned ignorance" and the relations with kenotic theology, personalism and kabbalah. Will Tucker traces the humiliation ritual as a heterodox form of esoteric mystagogy to condition the intellect and will towards "divine nothingness."
