À propos de cet audio

This engaging course of lectures begins by providing a detailed and accurate overview of Plato's philosophy and it's central idea - the idea of a transcendent reality that has popularly become known as the theory of the Forms. Professor Kreeft then takes us on a concise journey through Western Philosophical history to show how that central idea - the theory of forms - has either been built upon or reacted to by philosophers ever since. We explore not only the work of Plato, but also that of several other great voices in the Western Philosophical tradition - Aristotle, Plotinus, and Augustine - each of whom gave the forms a new metaphysical address. Later lectures explore both Christian Platonists and philosophical movements such as Positivism and Nihilism which have been anti-Platonist in their outlook. In the end we are left with a richer appreciation for Plato's work and its enduring legacy.

I hoped this would give me a better understanding of Plato and his followers. What I got, was something far better: a clear articulation of western philosophy, and perhaps even western culture, and why it has seemed to steadily decline since the high middle ages, despite everything getting better in material terms.

This course is much more than an introduction to the Platonic Tradition. It is a masterwork, a window beyond the world, much like the windows Kreeft speaks of in his final lecture.

I cannot possibly recommend this course highly enough.

The content of this book holds great merit to all audiences, those new to Philosophy and those heavily immersed in it alike. Thank you Prof for naming the n*minalist problem in Philosophy. N*minalism and it’s consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
