Laws is Plato's last and longest dialogue. It is generally agreed that Plato wrote this dialogue as an older man, having failed in his effort in Syracuse on the island of Sicily to guide a tyrant's rule, instead having been thrown in prison.

In this Very Short Introduction audiobook, Christopher Taylor explores the life of Socrates and his philosophical activity, before looking to the responses his philosophical doctrines have evoked in the centuries since his betrayal and execution at fellow Athenian hands.

"Încercat-am sa înteleg de unde vin lacrimile si m-am oprit la sfinti. Sa fie ei responsabili de stralucirea lor amara? Cine ar sti? Se pare însa ca lacrimile sunt urmele lor; dar fara ei nu stiam ca plângem din regretul paradisului. As vrea sa vad o singura lacrima înghitita de pamânt... Toate apuca, pe cai necunoscute noua, în sus. Numai durerea precede lacrimile. Sfintii n-au facut altceva decât sa le reabiliteze." (Emil CIORAN)

Las Meditaciones metafísicas, cuyo título completo es Meditaciones metafísicas en las que se demuestran la existencia de Dios y la inmortalidad del alma, es una obra escrita por René Descartes y publicada por primera vez en 1641, en latín, con el título Meditationes de prima philosophia, in qua Dei existentia et animæ immortalitas demonstrantur (una versión francesa, preparada por Louis Charles d'Albert de Luynes bajo la supervisión de Descartes, aparecerá en 1647 con el título de Méditations metaphysiques).

Aristotle wrote on everything from the shape of seashells to sterility, from speculations on the nature of the soul to meteorology, poetry, art, and even the interpretation of dreams. Apart from mathematics, he transformed every field of knowledge that he touched. Above all, Aristotle is credited with the founding of logic. When he first divided human knowledge into separate categories, he enabled our understanding of the world to develop in a systematic fashion.

El mito de la caverna (también conocida por el nombre de alegoría de la caverna), se considera la más célebre alegoría de la historia de la filosofía junto con la del carro alado. Su importancia se debe tanto a la utilidad de la narración para explicar los aspectos más importantes del pensamiento platónico como a la riqueza de sus sugerencias filosóficas. Se trata de una explicación metafórica, realizada por el filósofo griego Platón al principio del VII libro de la República, sobre la situación en que se encuentra el ser humano respecto del conocimiento.

Divided into short chapters that can be listened to in brief sittings, What Is Stoicism? compiles two millennia of Stoic thought into simple conversational prose.

In an age when philosophers had scarcely glimpsed the horizons of the mind, a boy named Aristocles decided to forgo his ambitions as a wrestler. Adopting the nickname Plato, he embarked instead on a life in philosophy. In 387 B.C. he founded the Academy, the world's first university, and taught his students that all we see is not reality but merely a reproduction of the true source. And in his famous Republic he described the politics of "the highest form of state."

Confucius knew all about life and told us how to behave, but we can't find out precisely what he was up to. His well-meaning platitudes, quaint maxims, and quasi-enigmatic anecdotes combined to produce an ideal philosophy for civil servants. It would appear that his aim was to turn his pupils into good government officials, but his teachings succeeded beyond his wildest expectations, providing rules of conduct and spiritual fodder for more than two thousand years.

When Athenians suffered the shame of having lost a war from their own greed and foolishness, around 404 BCE the public's blame was directed at Socrates, a man whose unique appearance and behavior, as well as his disapproval of the democracy, made him a ready target. Socrates was subsequently put on trial and sentenced to death. However, as René Girard has pointed out, no individual can be held responsible for a communal crisis.

In this translation of the Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle’s foundational work on ethics, happiness, and virtue is brought to life in fresh, accessible language designed for 21st-century listeners. Whether you’re a student of philosophy or simply seeking deeper meaning in your everyday decisions, this audiobook delivers powerful insights that resonate across generations.

Las Meditaciones de Marco Aurelio es una obra clásica de la filosofía estoica, escrita por el propio emperador romano como una serie de reflexiones personales destinadas a su desarrollo espiritual y moral. Lejos de ser un tratado académico, el texto es íntimo, sincero y profundamente humano. A través de sus páginas, Marco Aurelio se enfrenta a las dificultades del poder, el dolor, la muerte y el deber, mientras busca vivir de acuerdo con la razón, la virtud y la naturaleza.

Plato is, by any reckoning, one of the most dazzling writers in the Western literary tradition and one of the most penetrating, wide-ranging, and influential authors in the history of philosophy. This audiobook contains Plato's most notable books.

El Kybalión es un documento que contiene el conjunto de enseñanzas de la filosofía hermética, también conocidos como los siete principios del hermetismo. Escrito en los albores del siglo XX, su autoría se debe a un grupo anónimo de personas autodenominados Los tres Iniciados, aunque las bases del hermetismo se atribuyen a un alquimista de algunas logias ocultistas llamado “Hermes Trismegisto”, cuya existencia pudo haber transcurrido en Egipto antes de la época de los faraones.
