You're an absolutely amazing teacher! Thank you for this lecture series my man.

[@danagarcia290]

Thank you! I’m reading Collingwood for my thesis in history and your explanation helped me to make clearer his text. Nevertheless, I think there’s more to say about him. For example, the idea about the history of thoughts can complement.

11:45 "History explains actions using reason. Historical explanations don't use laws. They involve the historian thinking like the person he is investigating, going through their thought processes and understanding why it was logical for that person at that time to think and act as they did". But does this not mean using the Law of Logic?

Wonderful lecture. I really enjoy the manner you explain difficult things by making them simple to understand.

[@Abbas_AliG]

Reason is the explanation of either cause or effect if it is of cause it must be studied as before it happened and if it is of effect it must be looked as an after effect.

[@jemscott3528]

but, if only the present is real then there can be no cause, only the outcome or the reason

[@solvidias779]

So why was Herodotus wrong about the Persian army numbers? I need to know now. Btw, Herodotus Histories are fascinating.

[@mightynathaniel5355]

merely word play without much meaning or usefulness. B. S unfortunately like much of "philosophy" from a time before people knew certain things. The fact that you are watching a video recording shows you the past exists. all memories and ideas work the same way. This is more of a word game or thought experiment someone with does in leisure Time in the absence of doing anything else.

[@stinkystealthysloth]

History is just his story
