This podcast traces a panorama of Western philosophy, from the influence of Kant after the Enlightenment and the Scientific Revolution, to the emergence of political ideologies such as Marx and Engels\u2019 socialism in response to the inequalities of the Industrial Revolution. The podcast explores the impact of fascism and totalitarianism in the 20th century, contrasting them with philosophers who resisted these ideologies. It also addresses advances in science, such as the theory of relativity, genetics and neuroscience, and reflects on the tensions between scientific knowledge and religious faith in the modern era, culminating in Einstein\u2019s perspective on mystery as the source of science and philosophy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
