@swatlibrary @SwatPhilosophy @SwarthmoreITS @swarthmore @SwatAlum @SwatAthletics @SwatAdmissions "Categorical imperative" won't fit on two hands. I think they're just going to have to settle for two bicep tattoos of Kant and Nietzsche.

That moment when you realize that reading The Symposium without studying the history of classical Greek sexuality might make it a bit hard to understand.

[Swarthmore Philosophy @SwatPhilosophy]

That moment when you realize that question of what history is and how one should do it is actually a philosophical question...

[Swarthmore History Department @SwatHistory]

@SwatPhilosophy Well, it does mean that the context that you need to read philosophy well is right there at hand on that floor. Convenient!

[Swarthmore History Department @SwatHistory]

@SwatPhilosophy Yes, all that history there really does a lot for it.

[Swarthmore History Department @SwatHistory]

@swatlibrary Ahem. I think that's the floor where history is.

Welcome #Swat2023! Get ready to study why dead people and vanished places are really important! (And why what is dead may never die.)
