In honor of the World Cup final, we revisit a classic Monty Python skit. The scene is the 1972 Munich Olympics. The event is a football/soccer match, pitting German philosophers against Greek philosophers. On the one side, the Germans — Hegel, Nietzsche, Kant, Marx and, um, Franz Beckenbauer. On the other side, Archimedes, Socrates, Plato and the rest of the gang. The referee? Confucius. On May 9, this match was recreated by The Philosophy Shop, a group dedicated to promoting philosophy among primary schoolchildren. The Telegraph gives you more details.
Meanwhile, on a more serious note, you can download free philosophy courses (in audio & video) from the Philosophy section of our Free Online Course collection.
hehehee :) thank you very much. I love it
Kinda boring without Plato. Fresh legs n’ all.
…and Marx is claiming that it was offside.

That of course is a clip from Monty Python at the Hollywood Bowl, one of the superior comedy concert films… but die-hard fans can tell you where that clip was first seen.
