About this episode
Many of the greatest philosophers in history were misunderstood. It makes sense – for someone to be great, they must be different from everyone else. And that often takes the form of being misunderstood. Still, it’s an interesting conundrum because clearly, they are understood in some ways. Otherwise, why even listen to them? And then there’s the question: does EVERYONE misunderstand them? And do we need to be understood, by the world or by even one person to function? In this episode, I’ll be talking about being understood and misunderstood. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
