TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: Herder’s Reflections on the Philosophy of the History of Mankind
Sunday 25 August 2024 is the 280th anniversary of the birth of Johann Gottfried von Herder (25 August 1744 – 18 December 1803), who was born at Mohrungen, then part of Prussia and now part of Poland, just south of Königsberg, now Kaliningrad (where Kant was a professor), on this day in 1744.
Herder was a student of Kant, a protégé of Hamann, and an independent thinker who presented a counter-Enlightenment interpretation of human history, but still saw a future of progress for humanity.
