One of the great fears many of us face is that despite all our effort and striving, we will discover at the end that we have wasted our life. In A Guide to the Good Life, William B. Irvine plumbs the wisdom of Stoic philosophy, one of the most popular and successful schools of thought in ancient Rome, and shows how its insight and advice are still remarkably applicable to modern lives. In A Guide to the Good Life, Irvine offers a refreshing presentation of Stoicism, showing how this ancient philosophy can still direct us toward a better life.

Voltaire met ici tous ses talents au service de la justice, après l'exécution de Jean Calas en 1762, dont il est convaincu de l'innocence. Calas est condamné pour le meurtre de son fils qui voulait se convertir au catholicisme. Cette réflexion sur le monde judiciaire reste très actuelle quant à la responsabilité des juges et la présomption d'innocence.

Le Zen est, dans son essence, l’art de voir dans la nature de son être ; il indique la voie qui mène de l’esclavage à la liberté.

Qu'est-ce que l'art ? Comment s'est-il constitué et défini à travers l'histoire ? Quels rapports entretient-il avec la philosophie ?

L'écriture de l'histoire de la philosophie occidentale n'est pas neutre : une Grèce prétendument fondatrice à l'exclusion des pensées qui la précèdent dans le temps, une domination idéaliste, notamment platonicienne, une tradition qui poursuit ce parti-pris avec le spiritualisme chrétien et l'idéal allemand - l'historiographie dominante est nettement platonicienne. Or, on peut proposer une contre-histoire de la philosophie qui se soucie d'un autre lignage : matérialiste, hédoniste, nominaliste, athée, sensualiste, empirique, etc. Et s'y inscrire avec le souci d'une pensée systématique.

I grew up on the bottom screen. My older brother always took the top screen in our racing games, and I took the bottom. Less of a view, less room, harder to see where you were going. That's how I grew up — between Delray Beach and Boynton Beach, Florida, watching life happen from the bottom...
