Platão é considerado um dos nomes mais importantes para a compreensão do pensamento filosófico no Ocidente. Ele foi aluno de Sócrates, de quem registrou as ideias, e professor de Aristóteles–apesar das divergências que posteriormente os separaram. Um de seus legados mais importantes é a concepção do mundo das ideias em contraposição ao mundo dos sentidos. Para explicar essa teoria, o filósofo grego formulou a “alegoria da caverna”, que revolucionou para sempre a nossa forma de interpretar a realidade.

Friedrich Nietzsche é considerado um dos filósofos mais importantes do mundo. As ideias desse pensador alemão questionam a natureza humana, as noções de moral e as concepções religiosas, levando o leitor a interrogar campos diversos, como artes, política, religião e sociedade. Seu livro mais conhecido “Assim falou Zaratustra” sugere a morte de Deus e dos valores morais, além da necessidade de superação da natureza humana, ideia cristalizada no conceito de “super-homem”.

Entre biographie et essai, le livre de Jean-Pierre Rioux, salué par la critique et succès d'édition, évoque l'orateur hors pair, le philosophe, l'intellectuel et l'historien, le défenseur des droits de l'homme, l'homme de la paix, l'adversaire du colonialisme. Les questions d'aujourd'hui auxquelles le premier mort de l'été 1914 avait donné sa réponse continuent de nous hanter. Comment ne pas trahir quand on est au pouvoir ? Comment lire une société d'inégalités ? Comment récuser le désordre établi si l'on n'assume pas l'histoire et l'héritage ? Que serait un avenir sans morale et sans religion ?

Aristóteles é considerado o primeiro cientista da humanidade e uma das mentalidades mais geniais de todos os tempos. Inventor da lógica e fundador da escola filosófica Liceu, foi aluno de Platão, mas não seu seguidor. Com isso, formulou sua própria filosofia e foi responsável por expandir a compreensão de disciplinas diversas, como biologia, ética, astronomia, retórica e política. A Coleção Saberes chega com o propósito de apresentar ideias e teorias de uma forma organizada, sintetizada e dinâmica.
