Roots and Branches is the ideas podcast with Selma Sondern from the Institute of Intellectual History at the University of St Andrews.
This podcast is all about digging into the roots of ideas, and seeing how they branch out into every corner of our lives.
Join us each month as we explore why anyone and everyone should care about the History of Ideas. How does it connect to the issues of our days? What does it matter for you and me right now and how can we use it to make change?
