Aro Recommended Ascent of Man, The (TV Series)

 

UK 1973, 663 minutes
Rating: [Exempt]
Genres: Television, Documentary / History

Topics: Box-sets.

 

Aroview: Renowned TV series from the era of epic-length documentaries, this analyses the progress of mankind through scientific and technological achievement.

Writer Jacob Bronowski gives a uniquely eloquent appraisal of developments in mathematics, art, physics, chemistry, and medicine through the ages, revelling in the telling details of geniuses who have gotten us to where we are today. Comparable in some ways with Kenneth Clarke's CIVILISATION, and while equally poetic is far looser and anecodotal in nature.
