Thomas Aquinas Summa Theologiae - Anger, Desire, and Naturalness - Sadler's Lectures 13:49

há 18 dias13:49

13:49

This lecture discusses key ideas from the medieval Christin philosopher and theologian Thomas Aquinas's work, the Summa Theologiae, First Part of the Second Part, question 46 "On Anger" It focuses specifically in particular on a comparison made between anger and desire (concupiscentia), and the question as to which of them is more "natural". This requires making some distinctions about what "natural" and "nature" can mean. In some senses, anger is more natural than desire, and in others desire is more natural.

Michel de Montaigne, Essays - On Anger - Sadler's Lectures 16:39

há 26 dias16:39

This lecture discusses key ideas from the Renaissance-era philosopher, critic, and essayist Michel De Montaigne's work Essays, specifically his essay On Anger It focuses upon his views on this emotion, partly drawn from other thinkers like Seneca and Plutarch.

He then discusses how anger tends to deform our judgements, leading angry people to dig in and get angry with truth or innocence itself. He also discusses the example Plutarch himself provides of imposing punishment when needed but not doing so out of anger To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 3,000 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler You can find Montaigne's Essays here - https://amzn.to/4l3iKfH…

Michel de Montaigne, Essays - How We Weep And Laugh At The Same Thing - Sadler's Lectures 13:49

há 29 dias13:49

13:49

This lecture discusses key ideas from the Renaissance-era philosopher, critic, and essayist Michel De Montaigne's work Essays, specifically his essay How We Weep And Laugh At The Same Thing It focuses upon the inconsistency of emotions we witness in a number of different people (including Montaigne himself), which should keep us from ascribing a fixed an immutable character to them. Montaigne explains that this has two sources, one within us, as we have a number of different emotions at any given time, though one dominates. The other source is that reality is complex and as we change our perspective, changes in emotional response can also take place To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 3,000 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler You can find Montaigne's Essays here - https://amzn.to/4l3iKfH…

Pierre Hadot, Philosophy As A Way Of Life - Christianity As Philosophy - Sadler's Lectures 18:02

há 4 weeks18:02

18:02

This lecture discusses the 20th century philosopher and historian of ideas, Pierre Hadot, and focuses on chapter 4 of his book, Philosophy As a Way of Life. He discusses how Christianity was explicitly identified by a number of early Christian thinkers as a "philosophy". This continued on through the middle ages, where Christian monasticism was also termed "Christian philosophy". Hadot points out that not only is there considerable continuity as well as contrast between the emergent Christian philosophy and pre-Christian pagan schools, but that they all are philosophies as ways of life.
