Dune – A Sacred Text

Shai-Hulud and Dr. Keith Witt

KMO welcomes Dr. Keith Witt to the C-Realm Podcast for a discussion of the first ever C-Realm Book Club selection, Frank Herbert's Dune. Keith is an integral psychologist who read Dune when it was first published and has returned to it at various points throughout his life, often to find new depth and new meaning in the novel. The conversation includes the friction between religious, ideological, and tribal forms of consciousness with the more world-centric view from which Paul Atreides tries to direct his fanatical followers. The book also offers amble material for discussing feminism, drugs, technology and the dangers and abuses of fascism. The conversation will continue on a conference call with C-Realm listeners on TalkShoe.com.
