About this episode
This lecture discusses key ideas from the 18th century philosopher and essayist David Hume's essay The Natural History Of Religion.
It focuses specifically on sections 9-15, where Hume brings his work to a close by comparing polytheism and monotheism, as he understands them, against each other, not just in terms of their belief systems but their effects upon cultures and societies in which they play important roles.
