About this listen
Join The Firestone Files this December for Descartes December. Each week Dr. Firestone will release a segment of his lecture series on Rene Descartes for Academia.edu. This week, Dr. Firestone introduces Descartes and sets the context for the turn in the Western tradition from metaphysics as first philosophy to epistemology.
The Firestone Files: Letters to My Grandchildren is a podcast hosted by Dr. Chris Firestone. In it, Dr. Firestone uses his expertise in philosophy and worldview to bring answers to profound questions to bear on the mundane of life through personal anecdotes and family stories.
Dr. Firestone is Vice President of Academic Excellence and Strategic Partnerships as well as Director of The Great Writings Honors Program at Champion Christian College in Hot Springs, Arkansas. He is Professor of Philosophy, Emeritus, and former Director of the Humanities Division at Trinity College in Trinity International University, where he taught and conducted research for over twenty-five years.
