Historians, even historians of philosophy, have tended to dismiss Stoicism lightly, and popular opinion has taken the cue. No doubt, relevant reasons abound. The riches of Socrates, Democritus, Plato, and Aristotle served to accentuate the comparative poverty of the next age.

Wie der Name des Dialogs es bereits ankündigt, geht es im "Sophistes" um eine genauere Bestimmung desselben. Ausgehend von der Frage, was denn das Wesen des Sophisten sei, vertieft Platon einmal mehr das die griechische Philosophie beschäftigende Thema von Sein und Nicht-Sein, von Wirklichkeit und Schein, von wahren und falschen Bildern. Dabei bildet die parmenideische Philosophie den Hintergrund, vor dem der junge Theätetos und der anonyme Gast aus Elea die eben genannten Themen im "Sophistes" diskutieren.

Denostado, incomprendido, relegado durante siglos al olvido, Epicuro propuso con su filosofía un camino para alcanzar algo tan esquivo para sus contemporá- neos como lo sigue siendo para nosotros: la felicidad. Y lo hizo de una forma simple y coherente, alejándose a un tiempo de la búsqueda incesante del placer—empresa vana, con la que no logramos sino acrecentar más y más nuestros deseos—y del ascetismo extremo propio de doctrinas rígidas como el estoicismo.

Stoicism has a lot to offer that is as relevant today as it was 2,000 years ago—its guiding purpose was to help us to live better lives. The Stoic golden rule was that "we can't control external events, but we can choose how to respond to them". This idea can have a profound effect on how we exist in the world.

In his Poetics, Aristotle puts forward that everything we create is a kind of imitation of life, merely using different types of media, objects and manners, whether painting, music, or language. We shape the images, sounds or words to make some particular point and tell a unique story. But if you want an audience to respond to what you have to say, whatever you create must be connected logically to the real world. The rules of doing this successfully are laid out in Poetics.

Vieles, was wir heute denken, viele unserer westlichen Werte gehen zurück auf die Glanzzeit der ersten Philosophie in Griechenland um 500 v. Chr. Verbunden mit den Namen Sokrates, Platon und Aristoteles. Und auch unsere Literatur bestimmen noch immer Figuren und Geschichten der Antike. Unsere Box vereint Klassiker der Denk-und Dramenkunst. Mit dabei: "Die Apologie des Sokrates", "Das Gastmahl", "Phaidon" (alle Platon), "Die Nikomachische Ethik" (Aristoteles), "Antigone", "König Ödipus" (Sophokles), "Medea" (Euripides), "Die Perser" (Aischylos) und "Die Vögel", "Lysistrate"(Aristophanes).

What’s the big idea? To Socrates, living according to his values was more important than life itself. Plato’s Apology is in three parts: Socrates’ personal defense in his trial for impiety and corrupting the young, his plea before being sentenced, and his address to the jurors after he was condemned to death. This book includes an introduction, telling who Socrates was and how he came to be on trial for his life before his fellow Athenians.

Theophrastus' Characters is a joyous festival of fault-finding: a collection of thirty closely observed personality portraits, defining the full spectrum of human flaws, failings, and follies. With piquant details of speech and behavior taken straight off the streets of ancient Athens, Theophrastus gives us sketches of the mean, vile, and annoying that are comically distorted yet vividly real. Enlivened by Pamela Mensch's fresh translation, Theophrastus' Characters transports us to a world populated by figures of flesh and blood, not bronze and marble.

Seneca (1 – 65 n. Chr.) war mehr als nur ein Philosoph: er war Staatsmann und Erzieher des despotischen Kaisers Nero. Wenn Seneca, Hauptvertreter der Denkrichtung der Stoa, praktische Lebenstipps erteilt, weiß er genau, wovon er spricht. Seneca weiß: ein gutes, glückliches und sinnvolles Leben ist möglich. Hier enthalten: Vom glücklichen Leben, Von der Kürze des Lebens, Von der Gemütsruhe, Vom Zorn.

Is good character something that can be taught? In 430 BCE, Socrates set out to teach the vain, power-seeking Athenian statesman Alcibiades how to be a good person—and failed spectacularly. Alcibiades went on to beguile his city into a hopeless war with Syracuse, and all of Athens paid the price. In The Quest for Character, philosophy professor Massimo Pigliucci tells this famous story and asks what we can learn from it.

Perfect for any listener who is searching for a deceptively simple yet powerful approach to life, this book offers you a source of inner strength and guidance, allowing you to enrich your life and face your challenges with a renewed level of insight.

The original Latin name of this important essay by Seneca, written around 60 CE, was De Beneficiis, which is why it is generally translated as ‘On Benefits'. However, it is more usefully titled ‘On Favours', because this is what it is essentially about: the giving and receiving of favours, with all the implications of such transactions.

Was ist Wissen? Dies ist die grundlegende Frage, die Platon in dem Dialog "Theätet" verhandelt. Um diese so gewichtige Frage philosophisch zu diskutieren, lässt Platon seinen Sokrates mit dem Mathematiker Theodoros und dessen Schüler Theätet zusammentreffen. Während der ältliche Theodoros für den Erkenntnisgang des Dialogs eher die Rolle des Mitunterredners einnimmt, rückt der noch junge und unerfahrene Theätet mehr und mehr ins Zentrum des Dialogs.

The Greek philosopher Socrates once asked his student Phaedrus: "Where have you come from and where are you going?" These two simple questions are at the heart of "real" Greek philosophy. We all want to know where the universe came from, and what is our place in it. We also want to choose the best, most fulfilling and happiest life for ourselves in the years ahead.
