In this episode of Chasing Leviathan, PJ and Dr. Christopher Yeomans discuss his book, The Politics of German Idealism, focusing on the philosophical underpinnings of Hegel, Fichte, and Kant. Together they explore the estate structure in Hegel's philosophy, the impact of the French Revolution, and the evolution of social classes in Germany during a time of significant transition. Yeomans emphasizes the importance of understanding the historical context of these ideas, particularly in relation to urbanization, social mobility, and the role of status in society. The conversation concludes with reflections on modern citizenship and the relevance of pluralism in contemporary political discourse.

Who thinks that they can subdue Leviathan? Strength resides in its neck; dismay goes before it. When it rises up, the mighty are terrified. Nothing on earth is its equal. It is without fear. It looks down on all who are haughty; it is king over all who are proud.

These words inspired PJ Wehry to create Chasing Leviathan. Chasing Leviathan was born out of two ideals: that truth is worth pursuing but will never be subjugated, and the discipline of listening is one of the most important habits anyone can develop.

Every episode is a dialogue, a journey into the depths of a meaningful question explored through the lens of personal experience or professional expertise.
