Thanks for making Berlin’s lectures more widely known. Very helpful.
Isaiah Berlin speaks remarkably clearly and transparently and easily to understand, better than most native English speakers, who still have yet to become as good at speaking English as him.
Fantastic!
I was introduced to him through Stendahl’s Red and Black.
This was helpful for more information on the man and his time. Thank you 🙏🏼
had to turn this down to 1.5x speed but its understandable enough. thanks for the upload!
What a great Bank Holiday treat! Isaiah Berlin giving his insights into Harmann and de Maistre. Thank you!
Playback speed .75 makes it comprehensible. Same with Michael Segrue. Most of the others you have to turn UP to 1.25.
Thank you for this. They either speak too fast or they have a rather thick accent.
@Joseph Hofer I agree. His treatment of the continentals is similar to that of Russel! That is to say, full of malice and dishonesty!
@Joseph Hofer what an old fool

I never realized how much of a pragmatist De Maistre was, I had a more idealized 'the last Roman aristocrat' view of him. Very interesting talk by Isaiah Berlin.

Another philosopher, another professor. Great!!!!! Mind boggling. ❤️lol The more the merrier. Suggestion: Choose a red head. It adds more spice. Firey 🔥
Wow you're enthusiastic
THIS COMMENT WAS HUMOROUS. NO LONGER SUBSCRIBE TO THIS CHANNEL. I have other professors. IT WAS MEANT FOR ONE OF THE CHARACTERS ON COMMENTS WHO WAS WRITING ABOUT IT. lol Hopefully, I did not mess your day up. MY APOLOGIES. ❤️
I know where the mistake is, in this masterpiece of persuasion.
He's not wrong, and then he's very wrong, the perversely wrong. Imagine being enlightened to the point you're against what enlightened you.

Was the enlightenment a product of the proceeds coming from various British colonial projects?
No . Based on the illusion of democracy . Naive thinking .
No.
um chud logic?
Think it's safe to say he in a sense much more complex than that
But yes
Damn it, you beat me to it! xD I was gonna type Chud Logic.
@@dasuero7489 Nah, its just logic.
even the most immature part of the (undergraduate) audience eventually stops laughing & frolicking after 43:35
When this is translated into 'English' I will be more than happy to listen to it!
@Justin batchelar You seem to have an 'attitude', hmmmm, wonder what else you might have???
@Justin batchelar How old are you? 20's? 30's? 50's?
@@richardnailhistorical3445 It is U-English, namely, Upper Class English which has its own phonetic peculiarities, like other registers of the mighty Anglo-Saxon tongue. It's characterised by its perceived high speed that stems from its being clipped and to the point, the old-fashioned realisation of the [r] sound, &c. For what it's worth, it is the finest, and Englishest of English, to my mind.
@Justin batchelar Confirmed - you are a nut case!
@@johnubal2825 Really, is that so, my, my, my, well I have little patience for listening to high speed, muffled, garbled static infused narration, sorry, can't talk in calm, sensical manner then I don't listen!
