I got really into the renaissance a couple of years ago and this was the catalyst book. But find any topic or person that you‘re even vaguely interested in and find an overview or biography. It’s so rewarding to go deeper than wiki, and you never know what kind of rabbit hole you’ll find yourself in.

If you’re looking for a reliable and extensive resource for learning, I highly recommend JSTOR. It’s an online library filled with academic articles, books, and primary sources across a wide range of topics like history, science, literature, and more. The content is curated and trustworthy, making it a perfect place to explore in-depth research or even just to satisfy your curiosity about niche subjects. I use it all the time, and it’s my favorite platform for learning!
You should look into some niche philosophy and sociology topics—they’re super interesting! Like the philosophy of humor, which dives into why we laugh and how comedy connects us, or time perception across cultures, exploring how different societies experience time. Another cool one is the ethics of memory, looking at how communities decide what to remember or forget. Even stuff like moral luck (how much of morality is out of our control) or urban sociology (how city design impacts social behavior) is fascinating!
