Aristotle's Poetics is best known for its definition and analysis of tragedy and comedy, but it also applies to truth and beauty as they are manifested in the other arts. In our age, when the natural and social sciences have dominated the quest for truth, it is helpful to consider why Aristotle claimed: "poetry is more philosophical and more significant than history." Like so many other works by Aristotle, the Poetics has dominated the way we have thought about all forms of dramatic performance in Europe and America ever since.

Socrates is on trial for his life. He is charged with impiety and corrupting young people. He presents his own defense, explaining why he has devoted his life to challenging the most powerful and important people in the Greek world. The reason is that rich and famous politicians, priests, poets, and a host of others pretend to know what is good, true, holy, and beautiful, but when Socrates questions them they are shown to be foolish rather than wise.

Epiktet war einer der Hauptvertreter der Philosophie der Stoa, und als solcher äußerst einflussreich. Sein "Handbuch" ist ein Leitfaden für praktische Philosophie und bietet einen präzise formulierten Leitfaden für eine ethische Lebensführung. Ein sehr alter Text - doch immer noch hochaktuell!!

Pupil of the great Plato, teacher of Alexander the Great, Aristotle is a massively influential figure in Western philosophy. Cicero described his literary style as "a river of gold". Modern ethics are based on his ideas about virtue; his writings literally encompassed all the scientific knowledge of the time and beyond, so much that many of his findings were still considered cutting-edge many century afterwards. Aristotle also shaped modern logic, and put his mark on all subsequent philosophy and theology.

Socrate va par les rues d'Athènes, interpellant ceux qu'il trouve sur son chemin : Connais-toi toi même ! Ne te soucie pas des richesses, cherche la vérité et deviens philosophe ! Ce n'est pas du goût des Athéniens. Au terme d'un procès, Socrate est condamné à boire la ciguë. Va-t-il s'enfuir ? Un philosophe doit-il craindre la mort ?

This Aristotelian treatise makes up part of the philosopher’s Parva Naturalia, which is Latin for “short treatises on nature”. In this text, he presents his ideas about the human senses. He connects each sense to an element - sight to water, touch to earth, etc. While Aristotle’s view of the senses is scientifically inaccurate in many ways, this treatise is a fascinating read for anyone interested in learning more about how the ancients understood the world.

"Cine sunt eu?" este o întrebare esențială. De multe ori, răspunsurile pe care ni le oferim sunt formulate pe baza interpretărilor asupra trecutului ori pornind de la ceea ce cred alții că suntem sau ar trebui să fim. Ne identificăm altfel cu ficțiuni proprii sau cu ale altora. Ficțiunea Sinelui e, însă, doar răspunsul iluzoriu la întrebarea privitoare la adevăratul Eu, ne spune Eckhart Tolle. Adevărul ființei mele este prezentul - acel "Acum" în care mă deschid spre marele și tainicul Întreg.

"Mi-am propus sa va vorbesc despre minciuna, ceea ce înseamna despre un lucru pur omenesc: numai omul poate minti, pentru ca numai omul are parte de un "lucru" care poate sa exprime si care, exprimând, se poate misca în doua directii total opuse: adevarul si falsul intentionat. Acest "lucru" este limba. Voi vorbi despre minciuna nu în sensul ei "privat", ci în cel "public", asadar voi vorbi despre minciuna colectiva, în care unul sau mai multi îi mint pe multi care la rândul lor sunt fie mintiti, fie mint in corpore, traind împreuna cu cei care îi mint, într-un vast scenariu al minciunii." (Gabriel Liiceanu)

"Nimeni nu traieste cu adevarat daca nu cade sub o forma sau alta de seductie. De fapt, oamenii ramân cel mai adesea acolo unde specia îi asaza: (în "bancul de heringi", de care vorbea un filozof danez), acolo unde se traieste dupa regula tuturor. Acolo ne instalam cu totii din clipa în care venim pe lume si tot acolo ramânem, cei mai multi dintre noi, pâna la sfârsit."

Corren tiempos de dispersión en los que es muy necesario escucharnos. Sentirse escuchado significa conectar con otras personas casi íntimamente; supone crear vínculos. Ser un buen oyente, nos dice Plutarco, es un arte que todos deberíamos aprender. Saber escuchar es tan importante como saber hablar bien. El placer que se alcanza al escuchar a otra persona depende tanto de quien habla como de quien escucha.

"В чому наше благо? Вибрані думки римського філософа" — збірка творів, що належать перу давньогрецького філософа Епіктета. До неї увійшли "Афоризми" і трактат В чому наше благо? Це роздуми відомого, зрештою, провідного, проповідника стоїцизму від класичної грецької школи про сенс життя і природу, про моральність, щастя і свободу особистості. Власне, роздуми Епіктета — це підвалини філософського напрямку самовдосконалення і саморозвитку. Епіктет вважав, що людина повинна розділити усі речі і обставини на залежні від неї і незалежні. У першому випадку мужньо виконувати свій обов'язок, решту — ігнорувати.

These three ‘Consolations', written by Seneca to his mother and two friends, have been described as ‘the crowning achievement in the canon of ‘consolation letters'. But sentimental they are not, for they emerge from the writer's deep-seated commitment to Stoicism, where individuals are exhorted to inhabit qualities of virtue, positivity, resilience, and indifference. This recording opens with Seneca's consolatory letter to Marcia, who, after three years, was still mourning the death of her son.

The Phaedrus by Plato, is a dialogue between Plato's protagonist, Socrates, and Phaedrus, an interlocutor in several dialogues. It was probably written around 370 BC, at about the same time as Plato's Republic and Symposium. Ostensibly about love, the discussion in the dialogue focuses on the art of rhetoric and how it ought to be practiced. The dialogue appears in the direct words of Socrates and Phaedrus, without an introduction.
