Carl Korsnes on his Magazine Sivilisasjonen and Brentano's Four Phases of Philosophy

Is there an inevitable cycle that civilization is doomed to repeat — merely reenacting the fall of Rome — or can we break free from it? The biggest hindrance to a rich culture is the rejection of empiricism. Today, you are supposed to just accept the narrative — a certain signifier of the mystic phase we are currently living in. But history shows us, again and again, that we are not doomed. Sometimes, one man is enough to turn the tide. Our guest for the evening is a returning guest, the Norwegian philosopher and editor of Sivilisasjonen: Carl Korsnes.
