A Short, Brief, Concise History of Philosophy

Do you ever find yourself wondering how a few undergraduate philosophy students might summarize the whole history of philosophy in less than an hour? Well, if that’s something that sounds interesting to you then this is your lucky day. In this episode of the Grindstone, Lael Keller, Jonah Falcone, and Mert Kiroglu introduce the subject of philosophy by explaining how it has developed from the Pre-Socratics all the way to the 21st century. The topics addressed include Ancient Greek Philosophy such as Stoicism, how ancient philosophy combined with different religions of the Middle Ages and gave birth to Medieval Philosophy, and how a focus on the individual helped develop Modern Philosophy. Thank you to Mo Hunt for controlling the audio for this episode.
