Kenneth Clark's Civilisation 06 Protest and Communication

Is there still hope? Protest and communication; the trick is that one comes with the other if one wants to make any headway at all. Aks me the name of any intellectual, philosopher or thinker for our recent times I'd probably come up with Christopher Hitchens, Rowan Williams, Richard Dawkins, Anne Applebaum, William Dalrymple, Martha Nussbaum, Jürgen Habermas, Thomas Piketty, Jordan Peterson, and yes, even Waldemar Januszczak. Especially this episode of Kenneth Clark's Civilisation can make one think so much anew, is even highly inspirational at times, and renews any waning hope for mankind. Men like the influential monk Erasmus of Rotterdam or the successful politician, with a highly moderating voice, Michel de Montaigne, high-end cultural achievements like the Plantin printing press establishment at Antwerpen or William Shakespeare's mindblowing thoughts immortalized in prose, and so on. All of this easy access to reason is mostly locked away in vaults of simple neglect nowadays, and that's a shame. Unlikely but possible, one indeed never knows, it may inspire even one person now anew
