Professor Eire's podcast on Christian mysticism: @christianmysticismpodcast
Join me for a fascinating conversation with Yale historian and National Book Award-winning author Carlos Eire as we discuss his new book "They Flew: A History of the Impossible." Published by Yale University Press, Professor Eire's new book is an academic exploration of mystical phenomena like levitation, bilocation, and miracles in early modern and modern Christianity. We tackle interesting questions, including studying such supernatural topics as a historian, the institutional biases against it, and what inspired Professor Eire to move forward with the project. In our conversation we explore the experiences of figures like Joseph of Cupertino, Padre Pio, Teresa of Avila, Maria of Agreda, and the Marian apparitions of Zeitoun, Egypt, and Medjugorje.
