We have everything important that they said and what they thought about everything important. The nuances of each philosophical idea is explained without turning pedantic and the striking vein of agility in his style provides a colorful read. What mystery or miracle, of Old Testament or New, could be half so incredible as this monstrous fatalistic myth, this nebular composing tragedies? Add a review Your Rating: Your Comment:. There is more to it, but these guys need lessons in logical argument. Read then some commentary. Still, he does sound particularly interesting and I have been meaning to read his Ethics for years — I even have it on my bookshelf waiting, always waiting… It's a good thing Spinoza is so patient. Durant attempts to popularize philosophy, but if it is not popular because it is difficult, then the answer is not to simplify it, but to disregard those who are unwilling to rise to the challenge and grow through the attempt. The book kindles our imagination and offers a delicious food for our thought by presenting the world's best minds at war in their course to understand and reveal the meaning of this world, in and around us. Sep 30, Trevor rated it liked it Shelves: philosophy. When you're done with the book, you'll better understand the human history and the knowledge to venture into any discipline of philosophy. Recommend for readers who are interested in western philosophy and wondering where to start. Love to love - because his wisdom and seemingly caustic yet correctly derogatory views about the inept masses. Every subsequent philosopher either reproduced his conclusions through their ideas or reacted strongly against his ideas. Simply put, this is both a poor history of and introduction to philosophy; it fails to convey adequately what philosophy is, what philosophers do, and how philosophy developed. While some of the messages are easily to comprehend, there are a few notions which are so esoteric that they represent a test of both patience and sanity. Want to Read Currently Reading Read.

This is at first glance a delightful arrangement; it becomes disastrous because the people are not properly equipped by education to select the best rulers and the wisest courses.

For its demands often conflict so much with the personal welfare of him who is concerned that they undermine it. The Story of Philosophy is a brand new and highly ambitious survey of the thinkers and ideas that have perplexed humanity from time immemorial. I am glad that I chose to read Will Durant. He thought it would be easy to make the citizens happy, but finds that no matter what he does someone is upset about it. Namespaces Article Talk. This deals with the concept of infinity.

The Story of Philosophy Writer Spinoza lays down a simple rule of conduct to which, so far as we know, his actual behavior thoroughly conformed:. We do not guarantee that these techniques will work for you. I read this book for a different reason, most likely, than most others would. That said, I did find Durant's selection of philosophers somewhat odd; he unexpectedly devotes a whole chapter to Herbert Spencer and a large portion of another to the largely forgotten Benedetto Croce while referring to Locke, Hume, and Hobbes only in passing and hardly glancing at Leibniz, Descartes, or much earlier the pre-Socratics. This is because there are two kinds of substances: the body and the mind, where one is physical and the other a ghostly essence which drives our thinking, feelings, hopes and dreams. Sort order. The further I advance in age, the more I find work necessary. Aug 01, Melania rated it it was amazing Shelves: philosophy. I over liked the further reading section. One of the underlying themes here is that Plato was right that the best form of society is an aristocracy. Kierkegaard experiments with various philosophies for living the best life. Well written and rather amusing at times. Therefore our senses cannot tell us about the thing in itself and our language makes it certain that what we can communicate about what we have sensed is even less of this greater reality. All in all I would say a reader would get a very good feel of philosophy with this book vs. It is because one can be frivolous that the majority do not hang themselves. Written from an academic perspective so gets a little bogged down in parts. One of the best books I have ever read. One thing only I know, and that is that I know nothing. Upon reading this book I got the essentials of what ancient, recent and current philosophers did or are doing for that matter. This is the most sensitive look at philosophy I've ever read. This story discusses faith and reason, and fate and free will. Using simple language and a dash of contextual wit, James Garvey and Jeremy Stangroom take the reader on a whirlwind tour of the evolution, development and future of Western philosophy. Found it an interesting read and giving it 5 stars because it is written in easy and understandable language. Love to hate - because he seems to be the soil on which the thorny, poisonous plant called Hitler seems to have taken root. That's a fact, alright, but Having no first hand notion of living or the complexities of life they have decided that life is driven by conflict, is limited to what we can perceive, and we cannot perceive much; that the urge to procreate keeps us from being much of anything and that death, being as much as anyone can achieve, it is preferable to life. It characterises all the horrors of late 19th and early 20th centuries. This book was with me unopened for about 25 years. I loved this book. Easy to understand for those who are approaching philosophy for the first time, interesting for those who already have a certain basic knowledge. It's familiar.

Community Reviews. Law is necessary because men are subject to passions; if all men were reasonable, law would be superfluous. Epistemology is a central part of philosophy, and, besides, a central concern of the greatest modern philosophers; so any treatment of the subject lacking epistemology is doomed to miss the mark.

All superstition is much the same, whether it be that of astrology, dreams, omens, retributive judgment, or the like, in all of which the deluded believers observe events which are fulfilled, but neglect and pass over their failure, though it be much more common. All the certainties they had in their youth start crumbling away. The Story of Philosophy Reviews The turf of philosophy too witnessed the transition of economic and political processes from feudal aristocracy to the rule of the middle class. The final goal of the philosopher is to harbor no dogmatic opinions—and by dogmatic I mean opinions that are accepted without scrutiny—but rather to probe and investigate every assumption, idea, and goal in life. Hence the fiction that all celestial bodies move in perfect circles. Having no first hand notion of living or the complexities of life they have decided that life is driven by conflict, is limited to what we can perceive, and we cannot perceive much; that the urge to procreate keeps us from being much of anything and that death, being as much as anyone can achieve, it is preferable to life.

Paperback , pages. Surprisingly, it paid off. Subtle and finely written. Jul 14, Roli rated it it was amazing. The ideas and the long dead philosophers come alive magnificently in these pages and Durant even manages to fill one with the thirst to go ahead and read all these works that are compressed and presented This was a long postponed book as I always thought it would be a long and trudging read, hard to comprehend and harder to remember afterwards.

  • Philosophy and Life by Saad Malook
    57 Al-Hikmat Volume 28 (2008), pp. 57-70 PHILOSOPHY AND LIFE SAAD MALOOK* Abstract. The paper presents the applications of philosophy to life. Philosophy has been serving the homo sapiens for thousands of years. It has been the queen of all sciences and was the cradle for entire human civilization. The topic, ‘Philosophy and Life’ is so extensive and rich in its nature that many volumes of books could be written but my purpose to write on this topic is to clear the misconceptions regarding philosophy and its significance to life, which are present among various circles in the present age. What is the nature of philosophy? How was it in the past? What is life? Has it meaning and purpose in this world? How does philosophy contribute for man today? How will it improve the quality of life of man in future? Which philosophy of life should man adopt to make this world a heaven? These are the questions, whose answers are tried to be sought out in this paper. Man’s impatient mind has ever been in search of the hidden realities in the microcosm (man) and the macrocosm (universe). The history of man reveals that he has contributed to the improve- ment of the world. Thales’ search for the ultimate substance made a start to the odyssey of philosophy, which journeyed through various trenches, uneven paths, faced numerous challenges from *Mr. Saad Malook is Lecturer at Department of Philosophy, University of the Punjab, New Campus, Lahore-54590 (Pakistan).

  • Examining the Nature and Structure of the Mind, Leaning on Kant's Analysis
    172 Wesley Taiwo Osemwegie (Benin, Nigeria) Charles Uwensuy-Edosomwan (Lagos, Nigeria) EXAMINING THE NATURE AND STRUCTURE OF THE MIND, LEANING ON KANT’S ANALYSIS AND THE CONCEPT OF “INTENTIONALITY” IN HUSSERL’S PHENOMENOLOGY 1. Introduction The mind is a critical component in the examination and analysis of phenomenon, especially in the constitution and epistemic grasp of reality. Though it is somehow argued in the ancient era that the mind has little or nothing to contribute in the grasp of reality, this view has been sufficiently discarded. In fact the mind serves a vital role in cognizing reality and apprehending experience. The imperative to understand the nature and the structure of the mind cannot be over-emphasized. It is germane to assert the importance of the mind as the nitty-gritty or bedrock in the determination of the epistemic certainty. To attempt or embark on the nature and structure of the mind is like asking what constitute the stuff of the universe. To put differently, what is the nature of reality? Just as it is not easy to pin-down or decipher reality in one fell-swoop, so also is the determination of the nature of the mind. The study of philosophy and by extension the study of the mind is not only to demarcate what reality really is from what is not but also to enable philosophers exert and query the cognitive element which is often the tool of epistemic enquiry. Thales, who is often, refers as the father of western philosophy engaged the mind in the determination of what the primary stuff, the constitutive element of the universe is.

Hawkins, Chair The core of this study concerns a historical yet current question: what constitutes humanist education? From ancient times to the present, the essence of humanist education remains the same, to cultivate human nature. Gradually, it becomes commonly recognized that humanity can be fully developed only when it is in social encounters with other people, societies, and the world. This recognition indicates that humanist education has become a project encompassing I-Thou relationships that construct shared meanings and humanity. The assumption is that, the more I-and-Thou relationships share realities, the more complete is their reality. My intellectual interest is to unravel the “ever-expanded and complex reality” in which I- Thou relationships have struggled, survived, and thrived. From a comparative perspective, I conduct the following. ii Crossing time and space, I explore the classical ideals of humanist education by tracing Western and Chinese origins.

  • Africa, Asia, and the History of Philosophy”* ______
    Journal of World Philosophies Author Meets Readers/48 Race, History, and Affect: Comments on Peter K. J. Park’s “Africa, Asia, and the History of Philosophy”* __________________________________________ DAN FLORY Department of History and Philosophy, Montana State University, USA ([email protected]) This article offers an assessment of Peter Park’s book in the context of critical race theory. I note how Africa, Asia, and the History of Philosophy powerfully synthesizes and expands earlier scholarship regarding the concept of race’s distorting impact on how the history of philosophy was told. In addition, I note how Park’s scholarship has implications for the concept of “philosophy” itself. I go on to speculate about the ways in which this monograph fits into recent explorations of implicit racial bias. I develop three minor criticisms of Park’s book concerning the relation it depicts between Christoph Meiners and Immanuel Kant, the possible influence by David Hume on these figures regarding race and philosophy’s alleged origins in Europe, and Park’s stance toward academic outcast Martin Bernal. The method used is one weakly committed to analytic philosophy. I conclude by arguing that in order to counteract what is now the entrenched view of the history of philosophy and its allegedly exclusive origins in Ancient Greece, analysis and criticism of affect and its relation to race will be needed, in addition to the sorts of rationalistic criticisms that Park’s book so admirably provides. Key words: racism; implicit bias; Hume; Kant; Meiners; philosophy; Ancient Greece; Martin Bernal 1 Introduction It is commonplace to find popular as well as academic histories of philosophy flatly declaring that philosophy began exclusively with the Ancient Greeks.

  • Did Philosophy Originate in Greece? an Africanist Response
    ISSN 2039-2117 (online) Mediterranean Journal of Social Sciences Vol 5 No 23 ISSN 2039-9340 (print) MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy November 2014 Did Philosophy Originate in Greece? An Africanist Response Matsephe M. Letseka Department of Educational Foundations, College of Education, University of South Africa Email: [email protected] Doi:10.5901/mjss.2014.v5n23p1302 Abstract The article aims to subvert the Eurocentric taken-for-granted assumption that philosophy originated in Greece. It shows, first, that long before Greek philosophers such as Socrates, Plato and Aristotle gained prominence, Chinese philosopher Confucius was already an established sage who was dispensing pearls of wisdom on virtue, moral excellence, righteousness, human nature, humane consideration, perfecting oneself, and benevolence. In fact Socrates was only ten years old when Confucius died. Second, the assumption in question fails to account for the historical fact that the Kemetic culture and civilization in present-day Egypt predates Greek civilisation. Indeed Plato visited Egypt around 390 BC to learn about Kemetic culture and civilization. Finally, the paper touches on research on Sage Philosophy in Kenya. The sages were old members of their respective communities who had no prior contact with or exposure to Western formal education and yet they were found to be philosophically rigorous and logical in their engagement and reasoning. All these considerations taken into account, the paper’s central view is that philosophy is a bastard, hybrid, grafted, multilinear, and polyglot discipline that cannot be reduced to a single origin. Keywords: origins of philosophy; Greece; Kemetic civilization; Confucian philosophy; sage philosophy 1. Introduction The origins of philosophy (Heidegger, 1956), the nature of philosophy (Priest, 2006; Deleuze & Guattari, 1994), or whether ‘African philosophy’ is indeed philosophy or simply a myth (Hountondji, 1996), these are some of the issues that have preoccupied philosophers and continue to be the major bone of contention.
