Join Titus, Aristocles and Tacitus as they wax lyrical, reading choice passages from Carlyle’s energizing text as well as analyzing it. With obligatory tangents and labyrinthine digressions into the obscure references you have learned to love from KulturKampf. Our next episode will be on David Hume’s “A Treatise Of Human Nature.” Enjoy!
