Carl Nicolai Starcke

Danish sociologist, politician, educator and philosopher (1858-1926)

In the history of thought, Carl Nicolai Starcke is one of the names that keeps being returned to.

The record lists Carl Nicolai Starcke as Danish sociologist, politician, educator and philosopher (1858-1926).

Carl Nicolai Starcke was born at Copenhagen in 1858. His recorded nationality is Denmark. He studied at Vestre Borgerdydskole.

The nineteenth century produced systems on a grand scale, and then the reaction against them.

His academic posts were held at University of Copenhagen.

The discipline keeps its dead in print, because the arguments are still open.

That the work was done from Denmark matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.

Carl Nicolai Starcke died in 1926, aged 68. The arguments remain in print, which is the form in which philosophy survives.
