PE 5 | Emergence of the Concept of Mind | Philosophical Roots

  • Summary

  • In this episode, we embark on a journey through the fascinating history of Psychology, tracing the emergence of the concept of the mind and its gradual separation from Philosophy. Join us as we delve into the profound shifts that occurred in intellectual thought, paving the way for psychology to emerge as a distinct discipline. We'll explore how ancient philosophers grappled with questions about the nature of the mind, laying the groundwork for the study of psychology. From Plato and Aristotle's musings on the soul to Descartes' dualistic views, we'll uncover the early roots of psychological inquiry embedded within philosophical discourse. This marked a pivotal moment in the evolution of psychology, as thinkers like Wilhelm Wundt established the first experimental psychology laboratory in the late 19th century. However, psychology's journey toward independence was not without its challenges! Through insightful interviews with historians, psychologists, and philosophers, we'll illuminate the key milestones that shaped psychology as a distinct field of study. Join us as we unravel the intricate tapestry of ideas that gave rise to the discipline of psychology and forever transformed our understanding of what it means to be human.
