TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: Isaiah Berlin’s Enlightenment Apologetics
Thursday 06 June 2024 is the 115th anniversary of the birth of Isaiah Berlin (06 June 1909 - 5 November 1997), who was born in Riga, then part of the Russian Empire, the only son of a timber baron of the Baltic, on this date in 1909.
Berlin began as an Oxford linguistic philosopher but abandoned this for history of ideas, which, as he pursued it, was frequently mixed with philosophy of history. He was an erudite scholar of the Enlightenment and the counter-Enlightenment, which looms large in his work and his conception of history. Insofar as we can discern a philosophy of history in Berlin’s work, it is surprisingly conventional in terms of Anglo-American analytical philosophy.
