Truth and Method: how we understand the past

Small scale history such as that of a pop group is inevitably filled with incredible coincidences, randomness, quirks, strangeness and charm. To revisit the lifeworlds of young adults in 1962 as they climbed their way to the toppermost is by nature a kind of hermeneutical study. Sounds fancy? It's just another word for interpretation/understanding. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ We have a HUGE set of links to accompany this episode. Please see the illustrated page. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll wet your pants. Share with friends: https://beatles60.group/history-links ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Every time we get a new Fab story from 1962, every new single that is released that year, every new 1962 trend, all the tv shows, all the stories we get in comments from people who were at the Cavern or the Top Ten or Star-Club in 1962, it builds our understanding every day. We're not just deducing facts from artifacts, we're making sense of the story’s development, how the people in the daily story experienced their path, their evolution together as a pop cultural phenomenon. A lot of it is as mundane as remembering or reimagining the ordinary lifeworlds of young adults in 1962. You don't need a doctoral degree in philosophy to understand the hermeneutic circle. Just experience our daily info drops and think about how this interpretive dance is what we actually do if we're paying attention. This isn't just for egg heads. It's for everyone who follows daily. NOTE! We give you a nice long list of links for each episode. The links are almost as interesting as the podcast! See: https://beatles60.group/blog
