Lecture 13: Darwin, Marx and the 19th Century

from Audio and Video Podcasts from the History Class of Dr. Reiman · host Richard A. Reiman

This lecture surveys Europe and the European mind in the watershed year of 1848. Starting with the significance of the revolutions of that year and how they changed the perspective of the middle-classes on the very idea of revolution, we survey the ideas of Darwin and Marx. How the ideas of the nineteenth century reflected the spirit of that century and reverberated across the years is the focus of this lecture.Vodcast of Lecture 13
