How We Check Facts
The dialogue in each video is a reconstructed drama
The two people in each game mostly lived in different times and in different countries. The dialogue in each video is a dramatization reconstructed from what the two left in writing and in speech. Most of them never met; where there is a record that they actually crossed paths, as with Hegel and Schopenhauer in Game 1, we use only what that record covers.
