ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Today's conversation with Philosophy Professor Scott Samuelson covers generations of philosophers through a magical kind of timeline map of Rome. But more than just a conversation about Philosophy, Scott's book gives insight into art history, linguistics and language arts, architecture, religion, ancient and Renaissance history, a field guide to some of Rome's most important and lesser-known buildings, philosophy, government, human nature, joy, happiness, death, and food.
It's a wide-ranging and incredibly interesting book and conversation.
