Aight.

that better

@Bunyip I haven’t gotten too far into Scruton’s A Short History but it just seems like a generic synopsis of normie philosophy. I tried to track down Scruton’s Aesthetics of Architecture but it was checked out

@clossington most short histories seem normie, just the nature of the style. If you do keep reading it let me know how he covers the continentals, I've been told he struggles making sense of Hegel and Heidegger.

I don’t think he goes over Heidegger in my book

>goes over modern philosophy
>doesn't cover one of the greatest German thinkers
very homogay

Scruton isn’t particularly great on modern philosophy

But he wasn’t supposed to be

he knows Kant quite well

Didn’t he subscribe to most of Kant’s ethos?

<:GWaobloChildPepeShrug:407618817569718272> I read his introduction to Kant and liked it

thats about as far as i went

In his Why Beauty Matters documentary, he gushed over Kant

yes

still if one talks about a history of modern philosophy Heidegger is a big name and not covering him shows you as inept to some degree

Heidegger goes over natural beauty and natural order very thoroughly iirc

It’s a shame Scruton probably never read it

iirc Scruton made a comment something like "If Heidegger is saying something it is brilliant however if he is merely rambling about nonsense then it means very little, and it can be hard to tell which is it"
