The scottish history section being located in a perpetually unlit section of an English library is the most beautifully poetic thing I think I have seen
-
I love how hundreds of years later Hearne is being dumped on by YET ANOTHER popular scholar.
-
I love how Alexander Pope's message was essentially "Thomas Hearne is a hoarding prick" and Grey, after months of excruciating work, basically confirmed it.
-
Grey has just done the real, actual, unironic job of a historian.
-
Grey: "The poem didn't even make it into the -main video-" The "main" video: 2.4 million views This video: 3.3 million views
-
Let's be honest, if Alex pope watched this video today he'd probably be laughing his ass off at Hearne continuing to fail 300+ years later.
-
9:00 Alexander Pope literally wrote down: "To future historians: This guy's a hack." And here we, future historians, goggle at his spiteful, beautiful foresight.
-
cgp grey, exasperated: "I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF ANYONE IS STILL LISTENING AT THIS POINT!" me, being entranced by the centuries old drama about Hearne while eating a Klondike bar: "ya, I'm with ya"
-
"Ardent STEM stan slowly discovers the Humanities, descending into madness" has been a wonderful plotline so far. Can't wait to see what's in store.
-
"Provided nothing of value" - actually, I will be sending this to a friend who is a history teacher who will most likely use it as a way to demonstrate to students how misinformation can take root and be passed down through the centuries and why checking the original source material is so incredibly important. It may actually provide far greater value than you realize.
-
I think this is important as it shows how a single person's incompetency can spread misinformation for literally hundreds of years. This is a small thing but how many of these small things are there out there that end up changing the total narrative either through this same level of incompetency or intentionally? The idea is so fascinating to me that it almost makes me wish I took up history.
-
Watched this with my fiancée. We're both PhD researchers and this was just perfect.
-
I love that this channel is just “proper research is agony”
-
"Look at what you did to Grey, Hearne. You goddamn monke." - Alexander Pope, probably
-
-
I’m a PhD student and I just got back from a 7 mile hike turned 16 miles by a wrong turn and, suddenly, the forest of all knowledge analogy just got 1000% more relatable
-
"Is anyone still even watching?" Yes, me. And loving every second of this batshit crazy journey through minor points in history.
-
“I’m here to find the Sconichicronomicon… In the Scotland history section, Which is in the dark” The irony of English-Scotland relations reflected in a London library.
-
As someone who recently fell down a similarly niche rabbit hole of research, this video entirely encapsulates the feeling of being possibly the only person who cares about X subject/question in the modern world. We take Google for granted until it turns up zero results, or when the Wikipedia footnote trail runs dry or lacks any page to begin with. It’s genuinely fascinating to me
-
This took the butterfly effect to the extreme. A few hundred years ago some guy made a fanfic about the scotronomicon and a few hundred years later some random guy is going insane wondering how someone lived 89 years before he was born
