Richard Tarnas: Western Culture: Death & Rebirth

This is an audio version of Richard Tarnas: Western Culture: Death & Rebirth which was published on the Rebel Wisdom YouTube site on October 29th 2018. 

Richard Tarnas is known as one of the most influential and perceptive cultural historians of our time. In 'Passion of the Western Mind', he presented a vast overview of the history of western thought and culture, with predictions of where both were heading. On its release it was hailed as a masterpiece, allowing "readers to grasp the big picture of Western culture as if for the first time". Twenty-five years on from its release, the world has changed dramatically, how has his thought changed? And in a time of renewed interest in philosophy and big ideas, what does Richard Tarnas make of the rise of Jordan Peterson and the Intellectual Dark Web?
