1.7 The Enlightenment, Part II: Philosophy of Science
Update: 2021-10-11
Description
Last time we talked about the Enlightenment in preparation for an episode in which we’ll cover Gramsci’s rejection of a working class brand of anti-intellectualism. Having a familiarity with the Enlightenment will not only provide background for understanding working class anti-intellectualism, it will provide context to many other topics we will cover in the future, including the French Revolution and cultural hegemony.
Last week we specifically discussed the Scientific Revolution as a key ingredient of the Enlightenment. Today we’re going to discuss philosophy’s response to the problems created by the Scientific Revolution. In the next episode we will begin to discuss the cultural impacts of the Enlightenment.
