Showing titles in Metaphysics

In the 18th chapter of the Book of John, Pilate said: "So you are a king?" and Jesus replied: "You say that I am, but my kingdom is not of this world. For this I was born. For this I came into the world, to bear witness to the truth." Then Pilate asked: "What is truth?" and when there was no response, Pilate left, saying: "I find nothing in this man worth condemnation." Having already claimed: I am the truth, and my word is truth, here we find Jesus making the claim: I came to bear witness to the truth.

Il "Fedro", scritto da Platone probabilmente nel 370 a. C., è un dialogo tra due personaggi, Socrate e Fedro. Il dialogo è composto da tre discorsi sul tema dell'amore che servono come metafora per la discussione del corretto uso della retorica. Esse comprendono discussioni sull'anima, la follia, l'ispirazione divina e l'arte.

We all want to know how to get the good things in life. Kolie Crutcher introduces us to a reliable method, a mechanism by which they are naturally attained and secured long term.

Perhaps unlike any other species on the planet, we have the ability and 'smarts' to influence our own evolution and future. This doesn't necessarily require manipulation of our DNA - although this may be one mechanism we utilize. Merely by thinking and using our imagination, we can change our course. This We Are is as much a celebration as who and what we are as humans as it is a polemic. Its brevity belies its depth. It is a clarion call to each person on this special planet to live the most magnificent life they can.

Art is the creative manifestation of essences. In order to understand the relation between art and reality, we need a philosophical guide. The best way to comprehend how the creative act of imagining enables the mind to seek reality is to employ the kind of dialectical thinking that Plato used in his dialogues. Beginning with the shadows on the wall of the cave in which each person dwells, that process gradually enables us to grasp the essences that are manifested in individual works of art.

What is truth? How can one be true to oneself without knowing what it means? How can one be sure to tell the truth when reality is such a difficult thing to attain? So many philosophers have struggled to define truth, each one of them coming up with enriching ideas that shed light on the concept from as many different angles.

At the age of 32, divorced and alone, I suddenly found myself in a deep depression. Never having experienced this before, I didn't know how to cope. Seeing my car keys, I was going to drive off a cliff. The next morning I awoke and was scared by what I had felt. At that point I begged God for something to change.

Philosophe et romancier, Pascal Bruckner a la volonté de transmettre le sens de ses écrits incarnés par sa voix, il collabore donc pour la seconde fois...

Pourquoi grandir, pourquoi vieillir ? Les âges seraient-ils en train de disparaître ? Alors qu'il relevait autrefois de l'évidence, le sens des âges semble à notre époque irrémédiablement brouillé. L'adulte est cerné par une jeunesse qui s'éternise et par un troisième âge actif où on peut enfin s'épanouir. L'âge adulte n'est plus un idéal où peut s'exercer la liberté, il est le temps des soucis et des responsabilités.

Socrate est souvent qualifié de "père de la philosophie". S'il n'en est peut-être pas le fondateur, il est le premier à se détourner de l'étude de la nature et à insister pour que la réflexion philosophique s'intéresse désormais, et exclusivement, aux "affaires humaines". En raison de cette stature, et du fait qu'il n'ait jamais laissé d'écrit, on a longtemps cherché dans les œuvres de Platon, de Xénophon, d'Aristophane ou encore d'Aristote, la trace du vrai Socrate, du Socrate historique.
