The Re-enchantment of the World: A Conversation with Lionel Snell

In this lively conversation with Lionel Snell—who has also published a number of books under the name Ramsey Dukes—Christopher McIntosh and Arthur Versluis discuss the disenchantment of the world that began with the advent of modern scientism and materialistic premises that still govern many peoples’ worldviews still today. How do we re-enchant the world around us and begin to develop more profound and meaningful relationships with nature and with others? Lionel Snell offers practical ideas for re-enchanting our world, and for understanding magic and magical thinking in new and provocative ways. Magic, as it happens, is not necessarily what you might have thought it to be.
