Philosophy For Teens

Socrates: A Life Worth Living traces the life and ideas of one of Western civilization’s founding philosophers, whose influence is still felt more than two thousand years later. Socrates is famous for how he died, executed by the Athenian government for corrupting the youth of Athens, but his most important contribution was to challenge the people around him to test their ideas and beliefs in conversation with each other, in the belief that in this way we could become a society that knows the difference between truth and falsehood, and find what makes a life worthwhile.

A brilliant schoolboy in 17th-century Amsterdam, Bento Spinoza⏤formally Baruch and later Benedict de Spinoza⏤quickly learns to keep his ideas to himself. When he is 23, those ideas prove so scandalous to his own Jewish community that he is cast out, cursed, and effectively erased from their communal life. The scandal shows no sign of waning as his ideas spread throughout Europe. At the center of the storm, he lives the simplest of lives, quietly devoted to his work as a lens grinder and to his steadfast search for truth, striving to embody a philosophy of tolerance and benevolence.

Socrate în blugi este un pariu cu adolescenţii de orice vârstă: oamenii curioşi, sensibili şi inteligenţi, pentru care succesul în viaţa personală şi în carieră nu a redus la tăcere întrebările sâcâitoare cu privire la sensul vieţii, nici nu a suprimat mirările copilului fascinat de cum se petrec lucrurile pe lume. Miza pariului, la fel ca în Apologia lui Socrate, e că filosofia rămâne cea mai bună pregătire pentru viaţa de adult.
