A brilliant author, Ida Friederike Görres went the majority of her life without the recognition her writings deserved. Daughter of a German Diplomat of the Habsburg Empire and of a Japanese woman who withheld motherly love, Ida Görres wrote on matters spanning from the beauty and fruits of marriage to the lives of Saints, and on deep challenges facing the Church in the 60s and 70s: challenges that persist, aggravated, to this day. Along the way, she developed a friendship with the man who later became Pope Benedict XVI. He gave the eulogy at her funeral in 1971.Dr. Jennifer Bryson spent years translating her works, including The Church in the Flesh (2023) and Bread Grows in Winter (2025), helping modern English-speaking audiences rediscover this long-lost author. Her latest translation, What Binds Marriage Forever (2026), brings to life Görres' writings on the importance of marriage in a time in which it is increasingly seen as something purely optional, not permanent, and solely a matter of feelings. In this episode, Dr. Orlandi leads a discussion on this latest book, today's misleading perception of marriage, and its effects on society and culture at large.Links & ResourcesDr. Jennifer Bryson: https://www.jenniferbryson.net/Dr. Orlandi’s Review of What Binds Marriage Forever: https://iwasnttold.substack.com/p/unbreakable-the-nature-of-marriage?r=4je44nAustin Institute: https://www.austin-institute.org/What Binds Marriage Forever by Ida Görres, translated by Dr. Jennifer Bryson: https://www.cuapress.org/9780813240398/what-binds-marriage-forever/
