TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: Lessing’s Broad and Ugly Ditch
Monday 22 January 2026 is the 297th anniversary of the birth of Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (22 January 1729 – 15 February 1781), who was born in Kamenz in Saxony on this date in 1729.
In a controversy known as the Fragmentenstreit (Fragments Controversy), Lessing said that there was a broad and ugly ditch that separates contingent historical truths and necessary truths of reason, and that he couldn’t leap this ditch. Like a twenty-first century surveyor, I take a look at this ditch for myself to assess its leapability.
