Spanish term

sobre lo divino y lo humano

Spanish to English Art/Literary General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
Mi pregunta no tiene nada que ver con la religión. Se trata del título de una entrevista con un personaje en la que se tratan cuestiones de todo tipo, por ejemplo: "Una hora de charla con XXX sobre lo divino y lo humano".

Quisiera encontrar una expresión inglesa en el mismo registro.
Mil gracias por vuestras ideas

Andy Watkinson Dec 12, 2015:
Some expression using "Heaven" and "Earth" could be used for this but I've no idea how.
Beatriz Ramírez de Haro (asker) Dec 11, 2015:
Muchas gracias por vuestras respuestas. No busco una traducción literal que haga referencia a lo humano y lo divino sino una expresión natural en inglés para decir que se ha hablado de muchas cosas distintas sin limitación.
