Philosophical Investigations was published in 1953, two years after the death of its author. In the preface written in Cambridge in 1945 where he was professor of philosophy he states: ‘Four years ago I had occasion to re-read my first book (the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus) and to explain its ideas to someone.

Idealism is the part of philosophy that focuses on the mind and its creations, which implies the problematic notion that everything we ever experience can only be shaped by our senses and the way our mind functions. It has its roots in German philosophy, of which Immanuel Kant is one of the most important figures. He is said to have affected a Copernican revolution in philosophy, akin to Copernicus' reversal of the age-old belief that the sun revolved around the earth.

Welcome to The Two F's Podcast: The Philosopher and the Farmer! Where two unexpected friends get together to discuss diverse topics and people from differing perspectives and beliefs. Part of the point of this podcast is to show the world how two people who should hate each other (according to current societal terms) can look past our differences and truly listen and understand. Disclaimer: neither of us are "experts" or "professionals" - the podcast fully ignores political correctness for the sake of honest opinion and discussion. Offense may be taken, but it doesn't have to be.
