In this episode of Hegel’s History of Philosophy (#4), we journey to the ancient Greek coast of Ionia, where human thought first dared to explain the universe without myth or gods. This is the story of how philosophy was born.
Through the ideas of Thales, Anaximander, and Anaximenes, we explore how early Greek thinkers searched for a single underlying principle behind all things—whether water, the infinite, or air. Guided by Hegel’s powerful interpretation, this episode reveals how humanity took its first step from sensory experience into abstract, philosophical thought.
We also examine Aristotle’s critique of the Ionian philosophers and why their theories, though revolutionary, were incomplete. From the idea of a universal substance to the absence of a true principle of motion, this chapter shows how philosophy began its long journey toward understanding consciousness, reason, and reality itself.
This video is part of the ongoing series Hegel’s History of Philosophy, where we uncover how human consciousness evolved from myth to science, from nature to thought.
