- Augusto Del Noce (d. 1989) ranked as one of Europe’s leading public intellectuals and cultural critics.
- His seminal text, The Problem of Atheism, has never gone out of print in Italy, his homeland.
- A committed Christian and distinguished philosopher, he flirted with Communism as a counterweight to his nation’s fascism in the years before the Second World War.
- The love affair didn’t last. He spent his postwar career deconstructing Marxism and its toxic effects.
- But he also offered keen insights into the roots and rapid rise of practical atheism in the West.
- On January 5, The Problem of Atheism will appear in English for the first time. Join Prof. Carlo Lancellotti, Del Noce’s translator and an expert in Del Noce’s thought, along with EPPC Fellow Aaron Kheriaty, M.D., author of a forthcoming book on Del Noce, and EPPC Fellow Carl R. Trueman, author of The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self, for a discussion of Del Noce’s book, his work, and his enduring importance. EPPC Senior Fellow Francis X. Maier moderates the discussion.
