About this listen

Professor Alistair Duff explores the meaning of being an intellectual, discussing some leading intellectuals in history, starting with Socrates, who was a cobbler, and then fast-forwards to the nineteenth century with Kierkegaard and Marx. Finally, the podcast reviews a contemporary intellectual, Steve Fuller, the founder of social epistemology, who argues that intellectuals need a business plan and to get out of the ivory tower.
