And we’ve talked a lot about several of these pieces in previous shows, but we’ve never really sort of brought them together, so we can focus on essentially one topic

THE KEN SHOW: I DREAM OF GENEALOGY In his essay, “Who Ate Captain Cook? Integral Historiography in a Postmodern Age” (available to download here) Ken says the following: “But here’s the other thing, the incredibly important thing, that organic genealogy does: it gets us out of the dead-end of pluralism and extreme postmodernism. Genealogy rescues us from pluralistic relativism, from flatland egalitarianism, from the deconstructive postmodernism that is the epidemic of our age. Genealogy is the cure for the postmodern nightmare that has ruined not only academia but much of culture at large. In short, genealogy is the cure for

Ken and Corey continue their fascinating discussion about integral historiography, taking a close look at three common historiographical fallacies through an integral lens: – The Historian’s Fallacy (Presentism) – Chronological Snobbery – Teleological Historiography Ken and Corey begin the discussion with an in-depth exploration of presentism, which describes the process of projecting present-day values, ideas, perspectives, and moral standards onto historical events. This not only produces inaccurate and distorted interpretations of historical events, but also opens the door to all sorts of cultural biases and blindspots that can cause the historian to “rewrite history” in ways that consciously or unconsciously

Today we explore the fallacy of “chronological snobbery”, a term coined by C.S. Lewis that describes the idea that the intellectual, artistic, or scientific contributions from previous periods are inherently inferior to those of today. This comes from the notion that, because civilization has advanced over the millennia in certain areas, people in earlier eras were therefore less intelligent, less capable, and generally inferior. Obviously an integral reading of history describes the ongoing unfolding of various developmental intelligences and capacities over time, which might convince us of a certain superiority over our ancestors. But this in no way means that
