how can such an old and populous country have contributed so little of value to the field of philosophy?

The only things of relevance from there are Duns Scot and David Hume. The first moved to France and mostly worked there (may even be relevant to the thread), the second was an English larper and a caricature of self hating inferiority complex Scotsman.

Most scholastics of importance were Italian or French. Duns Scot is the main exception and he worked in Paris. Albert Magnus is less important but represent Germans, I guess. That's not counting late scholasticism which was largely Spanish and is based as fuck.
Isolating the scholastics is cope to not put France one step above and Italy not far behind. Italy isn't even on the list. If you count antique Latin writers as proto-Italian, I'd put France-Germany-Italy as a trio hard to rank. I'd also put Austria above Scotland but discussion would reach high autism levels.

>> No.16930113

>>16929798
I isolate the scholastics because its somewhat absurd to pretend Ockham was meaningfully English. Maybe Aquinas was really Italian, but for other countries its more doubtful.
Italy is omitted because this isn’t a complete list, and because Rome is included.

Sorry, France leads the world in philosophy. Germany might have had a slight lead in the 19th century, but overall France surpasses everyone. They're clearly the best at abstract thinking, which is why the best mathematicians are French (German mathematicians tend to be tinkerers, other countries aren't even worth mentioning).

I can see that, I think Austria was more sophisticated in things like epistemology. But on the other hand guys like Carlyle were more influential than the top Austrians combined. Directly or indirectly, he shaped the thought of everyone from Emerson to Hitler.
