PostForum: Art of Prediction    Posted: Mon Oct 03, 2011 9:10 pm   Subject: Francis Fukuyama
I agree with a lot of what other people have already said and got a lot of the same ideas from this reading. I'll start with Knaide- I agree that Fukuyama was very interested in macrohistory and he sa ...

A lot of people made very valid points in their posts. When I first read the article, I definitely did not think Contat was a historian. I thought he was a story-teller and this story just seemed fict ...

Dylan, I really liked your idea of the relationship between science and history. I think it is an idea that we could really expand on. As far as DMT goes I agree with a lot of what people are saying. ...

I was also thinking the same thing, I also understand Kant better than Hegel so I'm mainly preparing my notes on Kant.

a priori seems like a concept that is generally understood. as a lot of people have already said, it is a basic framework that is just known, like time and space. it seems like there are a number of d ...

PostForum: Art of Prediction    Posted: Thu Sep 08, 2011 8:59 pm   Subject: Herodotus and Thucydides
And in reply to Niko's question, I do think that history needs to be accurate. A lot of people believe the entire point of history is to observe what happened in the past and learn from our "mist ...

Like a lot of people, I first was on the side of Herodotus being the father of history but as I continued to read I realized he was much more of a storyteller than a true historian. Yes, most of his w ...

The statement, "...true knowledge must be of the truly real," (pg. 5) I find really interesting because I think it applicable to both questions 1 and 2. I think it shows the differences in ...

PostForum: ABCD   Posted: Thu Oct 14, 2010 11:49 pm   Subject: What is the difference between IDENTITY and ETHNICITY?
