#mitchhampton #IsaiahBerlin #romanticism #TomStoppard #arts #culture #podcast On this, the sixth episode of our miniseries on Isaiah Berlin and Romanticism, I continue to emphasize prose style and conclude the subject of the art of letter writing - with a couple of examples from Berlin's extensive correspondence with the then young Polish political philosopher and dissident Beata Polanowska-Sygulska at the end of Berlin's life. In addition I will include the beginnings of a discussion of the Germans Hamann and Herder and their significance for arts and letters from the 19th century all the way to our present day.
