Socrates by Diogenes Laertius 3rd Century AD
Переглядів 1928 днів тому
Socrates by Diogenes Laertius. Diogenes Laertius wrote the lives of ancient philosophers, but who he was, when and where he was born, is nowhere recorded. It is idle to set bounds to the vanity of authors; but surely the writer of this book in his fondest dreams can scarcely have imagined that he would outlast his predecessors -that he, Diogenes Laertius, would survive, when Hermippus and Sotio...

Nietzsche's Apollo or Dionysus by A R Orage 1906
Переглядів 4992 роки тому
Alfred Orage wrote this essay about Nietzsche's view of Greek tragic art. He payed special attention to the conflict between Apollo and Dionysus. Apollo stands for Form as against Dionysus for Life; for Matter as against Energy; for the Human as against the Super- human. Apollo is always on the side of the formed, the definite, the restrained, the rational; but Dionysus is the power that destro...

To Lose Individuality is really to Gain Something by Arthur Schopenhauer 1851

Arthur Schopenhauer wrote Studies in Pessimism in 1851. He seems to say: The Joy of it: When you lose your individuality you gain everything. It sounds like some of the titles of Soren Kierkegaard's 1848 book Christian Discourses. The Joy of It: That What You Lose Temporally You Gain Eternally. The Joy of It: That When I “Gain Everything” I Lose Nothing at All. I'm not saying Schopenhauer read ...

    This is the spirit of idealism, which in the history of philosophy has had many names and taken many forms, and has in a measure influenced those who seemed to be most averse to it. It has often been charged with inconsistency and fancifulness, and yet has had an elevating effect on human nature, and has exercised a wonderful charm and interest over a few spirits who have been lost in the thought of it. It has been banished again and again, but has always returned. It has attempted to leave the earth and soar heavenwards, but soon has found that only in experience could any solid foundation of knowledge be laid. It has degenerated into pantheism, but has again emerged. No other knowledge has given an equal stimulus to the mind. It is the science of sciences, which are also ideas, and under either aspect require to be defined. They can only be thought of in due proportion when conceived in relation to one another. They are the glasses through which the kingdoms of science are seen, but at a distance. All the greatest minds, except when living in an age of reaction against them, have unconsciously fallen under their power. The soul of man is likened to a charioteer and two steeds, one mortal, the other immortal. The charioteer and the mortal steed are in fierce conflict; at length the animal principle is finally overpowered, though not extinguished, by the combined energies of the passionate and rational elements. This is one of those passages in Plato which, partaking both of a philosophical and poetical character, is necessarily indistinct and inconsistent. The magnificent figure under which the nature of the soul is described has not much to do with the popular doctrine of the ideas. Yet there is one little trait in the description which shows that they are present to Plato's mind, namely, the remark that the soul, which had seen truths in the form of the universal, cannot again return to the nature of an animal. If there are no universal ideas, what becomes of philosophy? All philosophy, even that part of it which is said to be based upon experience, is really ideal; and ideas are not only derived from facts, but they are also prior to them and extend far beyond them, just as the mind is prior to the senses. The Eleatic notion that being and thought were the same was revived in a new form by Descartes. But now it gave birth to consciousness and self-reflection: it awakened the 'ego' in human nature. The mind naked and abstract has no other certainty but the conviction of its own existence. 'I think, therefore I am;' and this thought is God thinking in me. The famous theorem of Spinoza, 'Omnis determinatio est negatio,' is already contained in the 'negation is relation' of Plato's Sophist. The grand description of the philosopher in Republic VI, as the spectator of all time and all existence, may be paralleled with another famous expression of Spinoza, 'Contemplatio rerum sub specie eternitatis.' According to Spinoza finite objects are unreal, for they are conditioned by what is alien to them, and by one another. Human beings are included in the number of them. Hence there is no reality in human action and no place for right and wrong. Individuality is accident. The Organon of Bacon is not much nearer to actual facts than the Organon of Aristotle or the Platonic idea of good. Many of the old rags and ribbons which defaced the garment of philosophy have been stripped off, but some of them still adhere. A crude conception of the ideas of Plato survives in the 'forms' of Bacon.

    Melville's story is about the boss really. It is in first person and the last sentence leaves no doubt. He cannot shake his sense of responsibility even though he declares himself blameless. Melville is always worth reading. Very like Shakespeare/Earl of Oxford in packing layers of meanings. Not like him in all ways - not interested in word games - but idolized him obviously.

    But...this film said nothing about Bartelby having previously worked at the dead letter section at the post office. All the lives that he affected by having to burn the undeliverable mail. Though not his fault people had moved, died, etc. so could not receive mail that in many instances would have had positive life-changing effects...but not possible now. Bartelby was profoundly affected by this. Maybe some unwarranted guilt involved, but mostly the sadness and his deep internalization of the futility of human life, dreams, endeavors, love, etc. struck something deep inside of him, as well as his complete helplessness to do anything to help those people.

    How can you listen to philosophy? And that question has a stuff that you s**** up or attempt to go beyond I? Can you learn experience? For example? I always very nuclear. Asked about gas chambers and I very open to changing my mind. But I have never seen proof of an offer proof that I consider credible knowing what I know, and in fact, that's me doing my research. All I've ever forgotten was attacked yoda or consultant for simply wanting to believe they are open to Hawaiian convinced me. I m not gonna try to disprove something i'm trying to prove it instead So kind of makes me laugh when people do that or similar things, and they offer examples of what everybody believes this or attend the dictionary or whatever looked like the world wasn't flat. Then it would be vital one point I sometimes are much more obvious like people I call you your name and then. Don't expect it to be called an impact. All too popular dinner bath are have theories that have no proof that I can't believe except that in fact, I go against proof but then believe something that's totally theory Like space or like connecting pyramids to astrology and own into aliens, they can believe that, but the case sees a truth ing narrow lives are OK. They don't believe in whereabouts, but you can go and get a book and see this disease that makes you aware of or dwarfs, but you can see sturdy little fellows. You could just imagine if there are the inner talls or you. Hobbits are at least the bones of hobbits species are k comedy, so volume thinks you provide that provide Evans. If you can see it with your mind, touch it, watch a video But they had done even understand that using words they donid1878 t get like they called someone a nice Galaxy. I believe nor it means that I will even know why I have no idea what nazi is or a people that translate the Bible using your English are a freedom as a translation rule is just not possible to have that word of concept and time period before existing mirror violethereby similar concepts. But I think you totally miss in the social aspect of wider doom. Or the wider meaning or implication, and you cannot put something with someone's mouth for life for history. That isn't there in thin bomb? Urbella is apparently a ball and I just didnid1878 t exist. Oh, why didn't they go or save Australian when Jesus was alive?
