Two talks by PETER BURKE
Lecturer in History and Director of Studies in the History of Ideas at the University of Sussex
1: The ' Biography of Ideas
Perhaps it is the British distrust of ideas, plain and simple, which has made us slower to study them historically than Germany and America. But the history of ideas Is far from being windily abstract Their development and relation. ship can be studied not in terms of pure philosophy but in their living interaction with the societies that produced them and were in turn changed by them. Linguistics, psychology, communications theory —these are only some of the directions from which they can be approached.
Second broadcast
