>historical figures I admire
I think I've outgrown the kind of fawning admiration I used to have (and perhaps that's something sad, rather than an improvement in my character), but there are lots of figures I find interesting. I've always been interested in the lives of philosophers such as those written by diogenes laertius. I like the little bio porphory wrote about his teacher, plotinus. You can really feel porphory's tremendous reverence for his teacher. I used to love reading Plutarch's lives, especially of the Romans, and Emil Ludwig's biography of Napoleon is one of my favorite books. I also find Julian "the Apostate" to be a fascinating and tragic figure.

why not

>INTP
>historical figures you admire and why
Not admire really but I am interested in Napoleon, Genghis Khan, Rasputin, and Theodora.
>time periods you enjoy learning about/find interesting and why
Bronze age due to it seeming more mysterious and fantasy like as well as epic. The wars with the Sea Peoples, Hittites, Troy etc. Also Minoan and Sardinian titties.

There's also Mesoamerica since it has a lot of the same appeal I find in the Bronze age, but from a cultural region completely independent from Africa and Eurasia. The development of those civilizations are fascinating. Also the aesthetics and art of Mesoamerica is cool. As are their religions and philosophies.

istp
alexander the great

Typical S

INTP/J
Never really been drawn towards any historical figures in particular.
Prehistoric Europe (mainly Bronze and Iron Age non-Mediterranean Europe) and the Middle Ages. My interest in these periods is mainly because I like their "aesthetic" and because I can actually feel a connection to them given my ancestry.

>feeling a connection to prehistoric Europe from 'ancestry'

I'm European so naturally I find European history more interesting. I find it hard be interested in, say, Chinese history when I have no connection to China and don't give a shit about China.

So you don't love history so much as you're self involved.

>ISTJ
>I enjoy the real villains of history, and/or at least people with personality.
I really find Julius Caesar interesting, and his ability to bend the system. Classic villains such as Genghis Khan are always interesting, someone to be that evil
>Roman history especially, but I find the ancient world in general to be the most interesting

ENTP
Cao Cao and Napoopan, because they had a dream and they are tragic figure that couldn't achieve it.

>I enjoy the real villains of history, and/or at least people with personality.

Yes, I have literally no interest in history outside of regions and peoples that I can place myself into.

ISTJ

not admire, find interesting: Nero, Muhammad Ali

ancient history (mostly as a kid). always found early christianity fascinating. now i lean towards the 19th century with an emphasis on the Middle East and its relations with European countries

>ISFJ
>Historical Figures you admire:
I Admire Baldwin IV for being a Leper and yet a level headed and good king, Joan of Arch for obvious reasons, Alexios Komnenos for just being a fantastic leader during a crisis period in the ERE's history and Corneliu Zelea Codreanu for his Piety and traditionalist take on the far right.
>Periods of history
Eastern Roman Empire because of its own importance to Western History and my religious ties to it, Italian Wars between France and the Habsburgs+Italian cites because of pic related. Also the economic and logistical systems of armies in the Middle Ages, I find the systems of raising troops via land grants, retinues, Professional soldiers, levies from different types of soldiers and the Muslim Mamluk/Ghulam armies very interesting.

>ISFP

>Schelling, Hegel, Plato, Parmenides and Aristotle

These are people I truly feel to be masters of the absolute and I feel they have their abode in the high and frozen peaks of humanity.

>Ancient History

Researching and thinking about something truly in the mists of time causes a powerful feeling to well up within me.
There is this sense of Gods, deserts, storms and mystery causes my heart to overflow.

Hard to tell whether this is sarcasm or not

Mongol and Ottoman Empires in terms of functionality and structure of the Empires and the relations with the West.
Ancient Egypt (from early dynasties to the Roman conquest)
The history and facts of Japan
The history, spread and teachings of Buddhism and Early Christianity
The Spanish colonization of the Americas or Spanish history in general. I find the mixed Celtiberian, Roman, Germanic and Arabic heritage interesting.

INFJ
George Washington, Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and Cato the Younger. Sir Galahad is also an important role model of mine, but of course he is (probably) fictional.
All basically because muh VIRTUE.
My favorite historical periods are America 1776-1861, the Roman Republic, and the Middle Ages in general.

>ENTP
>Yukio Mishima because he both saw through the evils of modernity that the Americans had imported to Japan and wrote about it. He also managed to marry art and action for one brief moment within his life.

Like to add Napoleon as well.

Possibly Buddha.
>why
Because of his autistic approach to reality that is outside norm. His outlook on life, death, morality, emotions, conventions, etc

My construction of the world is similar in nature due to my exposure to his outlook and my own personal "stoic" like emotional behavior in intaking/judging what is/isn't.

~16-19th century. The spark of scientific revolution and the industrial revolution is my interest.

cont, my favourite periods are those of instability and power vacuums like the Sengoku Jidai, three kingdoms China and the fall of the Roman republic because because they offer a relatively level playing field and I can learn about how those people who came from nothing managed to use their intelligence, charisma and determination to rise to the top hoping I can use their example to better myself and reach my goals

Marcus Agrippa

If you get anything other than ENTJ or INTJ youre confirmed to be a brainlet or a woman but I repeat myself.

Intp
I am quite new to history things however recently been interested in roman empire stuff, Augustus seems most interesting to me following Caesar, i also enjoy art so Vincent Van Gogh, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec seems most emotionally moving to me.
Pax Romana civilisation, architecture and good male statues, Italian Renaissance art and innovation wise, 60's and 80's for pop culture, romance/horror movies, comics, games, fashion, photography, lifestyle, pin up girls, etc.
Currently finishing watching Rome the recommended book on Augustus should be delivered tomorrow, hoping to make time for that.

Oh i meant INFP, my bad.

because only intuitives can have an interest in history obviously

watch out, kiddos sharp edges coming through. nothing personal.

When I was younger I consistently tested as INTJ, but now as INFJ. I'm not a particularly emotional person, but I suppose I am bretty good at reading others. Isn't Myers-Brigs a meme at least in the way the internet uses it? There are functions within each personality quadrant that are more important than the whole thing and those functions are supposed to impact your thought process more than the simple definitions. I also had a friend who was getting a Master's in some psych degree and she called it mostly bullshit.
