Religion & Mythology
Stories are written, read, and reinterpreted by every generation, and the most intriguing intrepretations happen when new ideas approach old one. How did people of the past not only write about the natural world in terms of myth, but how did people come to interprete prior myths? Moreover, how should we understand the stories that were a part of ancient cults as well as modern religions?
History of Science
How did we come to understand the fundamentals of the natural world we know today? There were many attemps in the past that looked like the sort of science we do today, and ancient peoples had theories about the nature of motion and what drives it. The intuitions people of the past had 2000 years ago, surprisingly, are the same we have today. So how did we get to our modern understanding, and what other intuitions are going to go the way of medieval physics?
