The Life of René Descartes
A documentary overlooking the life of the philosopher René Descartes. Cogito Ergo Sum is probably the most famous philosophy quote in history. Descartes was not just a great philosopher, but a scientist as well. So I've been traveling in his footsteps to show you the places where he lived studied and worked. We visits places such as Paris, Amsterdam and La Haye, which is now named Descartes in his honor. Hope you'll enjoy this episode, it's been a pleasure making it.
Big thanks to Ludvig Hyrefelt who helped me film in the Netherlands.
Almost all of the information in this episode comes from Desmond M. Clarke's book: Descartes: A biography.

Loved your video about Rene Descartes' life. I am working on a documentary about his idea of mind being soul and soul located in the pineal gland. How can I get in touch with you?

?? It was in the beginning of the 1500's Galileo Galilei was interrogated by the Catholic Church. About Earth not being the enter of the universe and so on.

Ehm, Galileo was born 1564 according to wikipedia and Galileo later defended his views in Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems in 1632.
