Krátky popis
An entertaining guide to history’s most fascinating philosophers –
from Sappho to Kant, and Aristotle to Simone de Beauvoir – which
seeks to help us answer life’s big questions. In showing how the
great philosophers of human history lived and thought – and what
they thought about – Peter Cave provides an accessible and
enjoyable introduction to thinking philosophically and how it can
change our everyday lives. He addresses questions such as: Is there
anything ‘out there’ that gives meaning to our lives? Does reality
tell us how we ought to live? What indeed is reality and what is
appearance – and how can we tell the difference?This book paints
vivid portraits of an assortment of inspiring thinkers: from Lao
Tzu to Avicenna to Iris Murdoch, from Hannah Arendt to Socrates and
Plato to Karl Marx, from Kierkegaard and Nietzsche to Sartre to
Samuel Beckett – and let us not forget Lewis Carroll for some
thought-provoking fantasies and Ludwig Wittgenstein for the
anguishes of a genius.As well as displaying optimists and
pessimists, believers and non-believers, the book displays
relevance to current affairs, from free speech to abortion to the
treatment of animals to our leaders’ moral character. Cave brings
to life these often prescient, always compelling philosophical
thinkers, showing how their ways of approaching the world grew out
of their own lives and times and how we may make valuable use of
their insights today. Now, more than ever, we need to understand
how to live, and how to understand the world around us.
