A Conversation with David Valerio
Manage episode 350515367 series 3278160
David and I spoke on Twitter Spaces in July 2022. We discussed Eastern Catholic theology and its parallels with Buddhism. We discuss the origin of the word physis (from which "physics"), as well as the history of geology and anthropology, the conversion of the Roman Empire to Christianity, catastrophism vs uniformitarianism, and other topics in complexity.
Also mentioned: Darwin, Lyell, Spinoza, Geertz, Tolstoy, Orwell, Shakespeare, Tanya Luhrmann, David Graeber, Jacques Elull, Viktor Shklovsky, Draper & White, Thomas Kuhn, John McPhee, Andrea Wulf, Daniel Kehlmann, William Whewell, and Lev Shestov 😅
