Durandal: A Divine Sword
from The Abracast · host Jon Towers
After this week’s disgusting and sinister Olympic opening ceremony, we revisit a favorite old show topic “The Song of Roland”. Parts of an ancient French poem are examined to maybe add some context to France (and the western world) current year. It’s sort of a meditation on culture, tradition and history.
