Musonius Rufus (c. AD 30–100) was one of the four great Roman Stoic philosophers, the other three being Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, and Musonius’ pupil Epictetus. During his life, Musonius’ Stoicism was put to the test, most notably during an exile to Gyaros, a barren island in the Aegean Sea.

Distraction isn't a new problem. We're also not the first to complain about how hard it is to concentrate. Early Christian monks beat us to it. They had given up everything to focus on God, yet they still struggled to keep the demons of distraction at bay. But rather than surrender to the meandering of their minds, they developed powerful strategies to improve their attention and engagement. How to Focus is an inviting collection of their strikingly relatable insights and advice—frank, funny, sympathetic, and psychologically sophisticated.

POLITEIA (Teil 15 der sämtlichen Dialoge). Die Politeia gilt zu Recht als das Hauptwerk Platons, bringt er doch darin die verschiedenen Themen und Ergebnisse seines bisherigen Philosophierens nun zu einer großen Einheit. Dabei fasst Platon nicht weniger als den Entwurf eines idealen Staates ins Auge.

Reconocida como una obra casi científica, La naturaleza de las cosas se deslinda del conformismo y la mera aceptación y plantea los principios del «átomo» o también llamado por el autor como «la semilla». Lucrecio trata de explicarle a Memio, sin deslindarse de los dioses, que existe un complejo sistema que abarca los fundamentos de la vida. Es de este intrincado mecanismo de donde emergen las cosas y se generan los fenómenos. Es una certeza que hay leyes mecánicas que mueven al universo, y dentro de ese orden general, los hombres no somos más que piezas de un rompecabezas más grande.

Written in Greek by the only Roman emperor who was also a philosopher, without any intention of publication, the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius offer a remarkable series of challenging spiritual reflections and exercises developed as the emperor struggled to understand himself and make sense of the universe. While the Meditations were composed to provide personal consolation and encouragement, Aurelius also created one of the greatest of all works of philosophy: a timeless collection that has been consulted and admired by statesmen, thinkers, and readers throughout the centuries.

Lucretius' poem On the Nature of Things combines a scientific and philosophical treatise with some of the greatest poetry ever written. With intense moral fervour he demonstrates to humanity that in death there is nothing to fear since the soul is mortal, and the world and everything in it is governed by the mechanical laws of nature and not by gods; and that by believing this men can live in peace of mind and happiness. He bases this on the atomic theory expounded by the Greek philosopher Epicurus, and continues with an examination of sensation, sex, cosmology, meteorology, and geology.

Do we live inside a simulated reality or a pocket universe embedded in a larger structure about which we know virtually nothing? Is consciousness a purely physical matter, or might it require something extra, something nonphysical? According to the philosopher Eric Schwitzgebel, it’s hard to say. In The Weirdness of the World, Schwitzgebel argues that the answers to these fundamental questions lie beyond our powers of comprehension. We can be certain only that the truth—whatever it is—is weird.

Philosophy - the term sounds fascinating, beautiful, somehow romantic and harmonious, and at the same time like great intellectual effort. Yet philosophy is actually neither particularly romantic nor particularly strenuous. It is true that one has to use one's brain, and perhaps some things exceed normal common sense, but basically philosophy only means to be interested in man and the world. The image one has in one's mind of ancient Greek philosophers strolling in their long robes in the Athenian sun while exchanging their thoughts may seem romantic, but they often dealt with serious topics.

If we do what is right, everything else will follow: happiness, success, meaning, reputation, love. This is central to Stoic wisdom. The path isn't always easy, but it is essential, and the alternative - taking the easy route - leads only to cowardice and folly. In the third book in his bestselling Stoic Virtues series, Ryan Holiday explores the crucial role that integrity plays in every good life. From pillars of upright living like Ulysses S. Grant and Marcus Aurelius, to the cautionary tales of Napoleon and F. Scott Fitzgerald, this book shows us the power of owning our convictions.

Das zweite Buch des ersten Bandes des Klassikers. "Ich gehöre zu den Lesern Schopenhauers", schrieb Friedrich Nietzsche, "welche, nachdem sie die erste Seite von ihm gelesen haben, mit Bestimmtheit wissen, dass sie alle Seiten lesen und auf jedes Wort hören werden, das er überhaupt gesagt hat". Und so wie es Nietzsche mit der Lektüre von Schopenhauer ging, so ging - und geht es bis heute - vielen, die an tieferen Einsichten in die Möglichkeiten und Bedingtheiten unserer Erkenntnisfähigkeit in die Welt interessiert sind.

An entertaining and enlightening anthology of classical Greek and Roman writings on animals—and our vital relationships with them.

Der "Politikos" berührt viele Themen, die für Platons Philosophie zentral sind und die er ausführlicher in anderen Dialogen behandelt. So steht der Politikos im engen Zusammenhang mit der Staatsphilosophie, wie Platon sie uns in der "Politeia" und in den "Nomoi" entwirft. Indem auch Äußerungen zur Dialektik und zur Ontologie fallen, werden zudem klare Bezüge zum "Sophistes" und zum "Philebos" erkennbar. Schließlich finden sich durch den eingeschobenen Mythos vom Weltenlenker deutliche Anknüpfungspunkte zur Kosmologie, wie Platon sie uns im "Timaios" und auch in den "Nomoi" vorstellt.

Batı uygarlığının kurucu üç unsurundan biri kabul edilen felsefenin daha tarihinin başlangıcında, Hz. İsa’nın doğumundan 399 yıl önce gerçekleşen bu olay, sıradan bir filozofa karşı basit bir muhakeme davası değildir.

Richard David Precht widmet sich den großen Vordenkern der Moderne: Hannah Arendt, Walter Benjamin, Sigmund Freud, Martin Heidegger, Max Horkheimer, Ludwig Wittgenstein u. v. a. Die Moderne provoziert die Philosophie! Der Raum als feste Größe der Physik verliert an Bedeutung, die Frage, was Materie ist, erscheint auf einmal erstaunlich unklar. Ebenso unklar ist die Frage, was Leben ist, und auch das Bewusstsein wird zunehmend zum Rätsel. Mit Sigmund Freuds Psychoanalyse übernimmt das Unbewusste die Herrschaft über den Menschen und fordert die altehrwürdige Vernunftphilosophie heraus.

An Büchern zur Philosophiegeschichte besteht weiß Gott kein Mangel. Und so ist August Messers philosophiehistorischer Abriss in 5 Bänden eben nur einer von Dutzenden lesbaren Versuchen, einen ersten Überblick über die Ideenwelt des Abendlandes zu bieten. Statt den Leser auf ausgedehnte philosophische Exkurse mitzunehmen, bleibt er auf dem Hauptweg und präsentiert uns die Geschichte der Philosophie in ihren Hauptströmungen und wichtigsten Repräsentanten. Diesem Konzept bleibt er auch im zweiten Teil zur Philosophie im Mittelalter treu.

Aristotle said that philosophy begins with wonder, and the first Western philosophers developed theories of the world which express simultaneously their sense of wonder and their intuition that the world should be comprehensible. But their enterprise was by no means limited to this proto-scientific task. Through, for instance, Heraclitus's enigmatic sayings, the poetry of Parmenides and Empedocles, and Zeno's paradoxes, the Western world was introduced to metaphysics, rationalist theology, ethics, and logic.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 BC-AD 65) is one of the most famous Roman philosophers. Instrumental in guiding the Roman Empire under emperor Nero, Seneca influenced him from a young age with his Stoic principles. Later in life, he wrote Letters from a Stoic, detailing these principles in full. Seneca’s letters read like a diary or a handbook of philosophical meditations. Often beginning with observations on daily life, the letters focus on many traditional themes of Stoic philosophy, such as the contempt of death, the value of friendship, and virtue as the supreme good.
