So in this episode, I am fortunate enough to interview Cornelius Schilt \u2013 perhaps better known to the world by his blog title, Corpus Newtonicum, which you can go and read at Corpus Newtonicum.wordpress.com. He is a DPhil student at the University of Oxford, studying the History of Science, and focused on the life, career, and works of Isaac Newton. What\u2019s more, he just handed in his thesis the day before I conducted this interview \u2013 best of luck on the viva, CJ!\xa0

In this, the second part of our interview, we talk about the context of the philosophy of time and Newton\u2019s philosophy of the universe, Newton\u2019s personal life, his alchemy, his legacy.

Our guest today was CJ Schilt, a History of Science DPhil student here at Oxford \u2013 in a few weeks\u2019 time, I have no doubt, Dr Schilt. If you want to find out more, you can follow him on Twitter, and do visit the blog Corpus Newtonicum.
