Entre la vision occidentale du bonheur comme but de la vie humaine et celle de la pensée chinoise d'un "vivre à propos", il est intéressant de se demander si c'est bien la quête du bonheur qui doit véritablement gouverner la vie des êtres humains. Cette rencontre, organisée par François Lapérou, pour Arte-Filosofia, nous fait découvrir que l'aspiration au bonheur, prétendument universelle, est en réalité un produit de l'histoire et de la culture.

Title: The Consolations of Philosophy Author: Alain de Botton Narrator: Nicholas Bell Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 41 mins Language: English Release date: 06-01-13 Publisher: Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: In ancient Greece or Rome, philosophers were seen as natural authorities on the most pressing questions. However, since then, the idea of finding wisdom from philosophy has come to seem bizarre. Enter a university department today and ask to study wisdom, and you will politely but firmly be shown the door. The Consolations of Philosophy sets out to refute the notion that good philosophy must be irrelevant and gathers together six great philosophers who were convinced of the power of philosophical insight to work a practical effect on our lives. Socrates, Epicurus, Seneca, Montaigne, Schopenhauer, and Nietzsche are studied for the light their work can shine on certain great universal problems - poverty, inadequacy, lovelessness, and so on. They stand as examples of the practical utility of philosophy. Critic Reviews: "Singlehandedly, de Botton has taken philosophy back to its simplest and most important purpose: helping us live our lives." (Independent) "No doubt about it, philosophy is the new rock and roll and Alain de Botton is its Colonel Tom Parker.... A pleasure to read. And good writing, like good philosophy, is always a consolation." (John Banville, Irish Times) "Few discussions on the great philosophers can have been so entertaining...an ingenious, imaginative book." (Humphrey Carpenter, Sunday Times)

Title: 300 Quotes of French Philosophy Author: Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Voltaire, Michel de Montaigne Narrator: Katie Haigh Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 17 mins Language: English Release date: 08-30-17 Publisher: Astorg Audio Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Philosophy Publisher's Summary: French philosophy has been led on by three most influent thinkers, each one bordering on literature and bringing new understandings to politics, philosophy, and religion. Michel de Montaigne is known for popularizing the essay as a literary genre; his style merges casual anecdotes and autobiography with deep intellectual insights. His "Essays" are among the most influential ever written; one can recognize Montaigne's direct influence on great literary figures all over the world, from René Descartes to Nietzsche, Isaac Asimov, and possibly William Shakespeare. Two centuries after him, Jean-Jacques Rousseau keyed the modern genre of autobiography, vastly influenced the development of the Enlightenment through his political philosophy, and helped develop modern educational thought, although his book on the question outraged the French parliament so much that an arrest order was issued against him. His lifelong adversary Voltaire was a French writer famous for his wit and irony, his tools for launching vitriolic attacks on the established Catholic church, the adversaries of freedom of religion and expression, and on separation of church and state. Each one of these great thinkers has had a tremendous influence on the rise and shape of modern thought. This audiobook is a careful compilation of essential quotes summarizing their fundamental ideas, for you to get acquainted with the subtleties of their works in a practical format that will add to your culture and understanding of modern philosophy. ©2017 Compagnie du Savoir (P)2017 Compagnie du Savoir

Dies heißt zum Mindesten nicht 'Jenseits von Gut und Schlecht'." (Friedrich Nietzsche: Zur Genealogie der Moral - Erste Abhandlung) "An einer Theorie ist wahrhaft nicht ihr geringster Reiz, dass sie widerlegbar ist: Gerade damit zieht sie feinere Köpfe an. Es scheint, dass die hundertfach widerlegte Theorie vom 'freien Willen' ihre Fortdauer nur noch diesem Reize verdankt: Immer wieder kommt jemand und fühlt sich stark genug, sie zu widerlegen."
