Does History Have a Meaning? | Featuring Nick Nielsen

Описание: Nick's Channel:    / @geopolicraticus  

I spoke with Nick Nielsen (Geopolicratus), who publishes a regular newsletter, and the series, Today in the Philosophy of History. We discussed Augustine's theory of history; the differing views of history of Hegel and Schopenhauer; the Renaissance and the Reformation; textual gaps in the Middle Ages; Nietzsche's "On the Use and Abuse of History for Life"; Nietzsche & Machiavelli as the monumental role models of our time; ideographic versus nomothetic knowledge; Peter Turchin's Cliodynamics. This was my first conversation with Nick, but it was lovely to meet him and I had a nice time talking to him. I very much enjoy his Youtube channel and would recommend it to those among the Patrons who enjoy history, and speculations about history.
