Reasons for our rhymes

"Reasons for Our Rhymes provides a chronological overview of the major philosophical approaches to human history. R. A. Herrera clearly presents the ideas and influence of key figures from the past two thousand years - from St. Augustine and Joachim to Bossuet and Vico, from Hegel and Marx to Soloviev and Berdyaev - showing how each of these thinkers initiated a new paradigm for our understanding of the meaning of history."--BOOK JACKET.
