Early Modern Philosophy second lecture
Today we discussed Copernicus, Galileo, Bruno. The quiz question was did Bruno get what he deserved? I totally forgot to turn on the camera! We got started early talking about interesting things - Galileo's model of Dante;s Inferno I think, that I forgot to set the camera up. Sorry. I think it was a good class too.
