Russell Shorto: Descartes' Lost Remains

The missing remains of the great feast of knowledge which surrounds and unfolds the bones of philosophers. In 1650, Rene de Cart, the father of modern philosophy, left a lonely place to hide the flu from pneumonia. And one day, over the years, his skull disappeared from his body in the grave. Author Russell Shoto overheard the bizarre fact that while the remains of Decart were being carried through the process, people began to steal them and went out to find the remains in the Decatte themselves. The author interviewed many philosophers and historians in Europe, and he collects stories of a highly unknown decart. They also go from the living quarters of Dekart to the residence of Stockholm where he died, and they take their direct steps back to Western Europe, where the bones of the Decart crossed. This will allow us to see clearly the history of the great philosopher who strives for the truth of learning with reason, and the geography of modern philosophy and science, which surrounded the bones and the intellectuals.
