The Sources of Living Authority with Dr. Zena Hitz

Dr. Zena Hitz was the keynote speaker at the January 2026 St. Louis Catholic Classical Education Symposium, ad Fontes, hosted by Chesterton Academy of St. Louis. Often, the Latin phrase ad fontes or "to the sources" is a rallying cry to focus on giving priority and authority to primary texts in teaching, but Zena Hitz helps us to explore the sources of authority in general: God and the Church, as well as our intellectual and cultural tradition. Further, she explores the necessary connection between authority and the intellectual and spiritual growth of the person. In fact, the Latin word for authority, auctoritas, comes from the word augere, "to grow."
