Genius of the Modern World | All episodes
Karl Marx, Friedrich Nietzsche and Sigmund Freud changed the landscape of the modern world. Together they re-imagined global economics, questioned the very foundations of morality and society, and unraveled the workings of the human mind. Historian Bettany Hughes uncovers the personal lives of the men behind the famous theories. Travelling to Europe, Bettany explores the social and political climates in which these great thinkers lived, shining a light on how these genius' ideas have been manipulated, misunderstood and ultimately influenced the way we think.
