When I was reading the section on Ancient philosophy, I felt at least some facile degree of identity with the philosophers Russell was writing about. With the Catholic philosophers, however, I feel none (although I do find the history pretty interesting). This seems a little backwards, since I have more in common with the second group than with the first. It might of course be delusional to say I have "more in common" with St. Augustine than with Heraclitus, when there are so many worlds of separation between me and either of them. |
