TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: Kahler’s Bottom-Up Approach to Meaning in History


Tuesday 14 October 2025 is the 140th anniversary of the birth of Erich von Kahler (October 14, 1885 - June 28, 1970), who was born in Prague on this date in 1885. Like many European expatriates, he left off the “von” when he came to America.


Kahler wrote at least three books of immediate relevance to philosophy of history, Man the Measure: A New Approach to History (1943), The Tower and the Abyss: An Inquiry into the Transformation of Man (1957), and The Meaning of History (1964). Widely read in his time, Kahler is little cited today, but his distinctive way of formulating the problem of the meaning of history represents a way out of the dead end in which many twentieth century philosophers found themselves in respect to meaning.
