This week on #HoPWaG we look at Pierre Bayle, and ask whether his Dictionary is supposed to lead the reader towards skepticism or a more profound Christian faith. (Maybe both?)

Today's new #HoPWaG episode looks at the delightfully cynical and quotable aphorisms of La Rochefoucauld: we explore the profound ethical theory underlying his "maxims" and writings of other French Moralists: historyofphilosophy.net/french-moral... #philosophy #podcast #earlymodern #philsky

Coming up tomorrow on #HoPWaG: the debate between Malebranche and Arnauld on the "vision in God": how we form our ideas. This turns out to be an early version of the contemporary debate over representationalism. #philsky #philosophy #earlymodern #epistemology #podcast

On today's new episode we tackle the Port-Royal Logic, the most influential philosophy textbook of early modern Europe, which combines ideas from Descartes with scholasticism: www.historyofphilosophy.net/port-royal-l... #logic #podcast #philsky #philosophy #podcast #earlymodern #hopwag

Wegen einer Wirtshausstreitigkeit an Silvester fand heute vor 270 Jahren im Amtshaus von #Triberg (#Schwarzwald) ein Prozess statt. Auf welche Weisen sich dieser Ehrkonflikt auf dem Weg von der Kneipe in den obrigkeitlichen Kontext vor Gericht transformierte, untersucht:

I've been somewhat quiet these last few weeks as there were things to do... Yesterday, I finally presented my #research on #earlymodern #siege #warfare to the faculty at @unibwm. #HabilKolloquium

Was warfare in the era of "cabinet warfare" and #Enlightenment becoming more humane? A #microhistory inquiry reveals that the practices of siege warfare remained horrendous (as they still are!), but also that sensibilities for this suffering were raised - and even voiced by practitioners of war.
