Dr. Holmes is excellent (especially when he rolls his R’s). I can see his spit flying into the front row of students as he teaches with such passion!
He brings a seriously thoughtful approach without asserting views and unfair bias (as many Christian minds have). Great care is taken to represent historical elements while not neglecting the relevance of the works for today. He was a bastion of Christian philosophy that is quite rare today, and so he is truly missed. I am so grateful for these le... more
Apple Podcasts5Luke HeberleUnited States6 years ago - Dense material meticulously explained- but he’s pretty harsh w Ryan on Whitehead ep
I’ve been intermittently zoning out and intensely zooming into snippets I gather from these glimpses of complex & abstract thinking out loud.

The professor clearly knows the subject deeply but rambles and does not have a structured style of presentation. Very charming if you know the material but likely confusing to a beginner.
Apple Podcasts4CarneadesUnited States7 years ago - La storia della filosofia in termini semplici e chiari, ma non banali né riduttivi.
Uno strumento validissimo per acquisire una conoscenza generale, ma non troppo generica, degli autori e delle correnti più importanti della storia del pensiero occidentale.

These lectures, to me, set the standard for how history of Philosophy should be taught.

I go back to these repeatedly. Thank you, Wheaton College.
