Orlando Furioso | Ludovico Ariosto Audiobook | Epic Poetry, Knights, Romance & Renaissance Adventure Part 1 ✝️ Catholic Star-Rated Review ★★★★☆ (4 / 5 Stars) In Orlando Furioso, Ludovico Ariosto crafts a dazzling epic of chivalry, love, and spiritual conflict set against the backdrop of Christendom’s struggle with Islamic forces. Rooted in the tradition of medieval Christian knighthood, the poem reflects a world shaped by honor, virtue, and divine providence—though often expressed through romance and fantasy. From a Catholic perspective, the work is both enriching and complex. It celebrates ideals such as courage, loyalty, and sacrificial love, yet also explores the dangers of passion ungoverned by reason—most famously in Orlando’s descent into madness. While not strictly theological, the poem resonates with themes of moral struggle, the tension between reason and desire, and the call to virtue. A masterpiece of imagination that rewards both the intellect and the soul when approached with discernment.

Europe's indecisiveness has invited many a barb. Scott Bessent, America's treasury secretary, recently quipped that the continent's only response to crises (in that case one caused by Mr Trump's bizarre obsession with invading Greenland) was to create "the dreaded European working group". Ha ha; most of the time working groups produce better results than carrier groups. Confabbing, summit-holding and deliberating result in decisions that—when they are eventually taken —have some sort of logic and general buy-in. Can Mr Bessent say the same of his team! It is anybody's guess what America's tariff rates will be next Tuesday. Europe's can be divined a decade away.

As there is a Charlemagne Prize for "uniting Europe", I wonder whether more than 1000 years from now, there will be a Putin Prize awarded for "uniting Europe"?

At the death of #Charlemagne on #ThisDayInHistory in 814, his last son by Hildegard, #LouisThePious, became sole emperor (he had co-ruled since 813). His first official act at the capital of #Aachen was to destroy the collection of #pagan texts and items his father had collected.
