Showing results for "I" in Philosophy

Martin Buber’s I and Thou has long been acclaimed as a classic. Many prominent writers have acknowledged its influence on their work; students of intellectual history consider it a landmark; and the generation born after World War II considers Buber one of its prophets. Buber’s main proposition is that we may address existence in two ways: (1) that of the “I” toward an “It,” toward an object that is separate in itself, which we either use or experience; (2) that of the “I” toward “Thou,” in which we move into existence in a relationship without bounds.

Remarkably relevant, beautifully written, and filled with wit and wisdom, these three essays by Bertrand Russell allow the listener to test the concepts of the good life, morality, the existence of God, Christianity, and human nature. "What I Believe" was used prominently in the 1940 New York court proceedings in which Russell was judicially declared "unfit" to teach philosophy at City College of New York. "Why I Am Not a Christian" concludes that churches throughout history have retarded progress and states that we should instead "look to our own efforts here below to make this world a fit place to live in." Finally, "A Free Man's Worship", perhaps the most famous single essay written by Russell, considers whether humans operate from free will.

Vishvaguru Vivekananda was born in the era when the world was in the clutches of imperialism and India was being exploited by the British.

Am I aware of the process of thinking? Can I see that thought is destructive, except where it is essential? Why is it that we don't see something immediately? Do you know when you are thinking? Is the thing that we call thinking thinking at all? Do you think from the background noise when a problem arises? When the mind becomes totally aware of the background, is there thinking when a problem arises? What happens when I am aware of this hum, this noise incessantly going on? Is the background noise different from the observer? How am I to live an everyday life with complete silence?

Women, especially feminists and lesbians, have long been accused of hating men. Our instinct is to deny it at all costs. (After all, women have been burnt at the stake for admitting to less.) But what if mistrusting men, disliking men - and yes, maybe even hating men - is, in fact, a useful response to sexism? What if such a response offers a way out of oppression, a means of resistance? What if it even offers a path to joy, solidarity and sisterhood?

In "Life is real only then, when I am" Gurdjieff gives answers to the fundamental human questions: how do I really live and what are the requirements to lead a real life? What is reality? What is existence? Has every man a given I or what must he do to acquire a real I? First of all, we have to accept that we are not awake, but asleep. The vast majority of mankind never awakens through its whole life. Only those are given the chance to become awake, who fight for it with their whole hearts and beings.

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.

Giuseppe Cruciani intercetta ogni giorno gli umori vibranti del paese da un punto di ascolto privilegiato - la trasmissione "La Zanzara" su Radio 24 - rispondendo spesso con ironia e intelligenti provocazioni. Ha scoperto a sue spese, però, che su un argomento è vietato scherzare, perché ci si scontra con l'assolutismo di una comunità che ha sempre più potere: i "fasciovegani". Questi sono i più estremi sostenitori di un animalismo militante che spesso deborda nella violenza di pensiero, di parola, talvolta fisica.
