Riassunto:

Excerpt from Knowledge and Practice

When we thus attempt to regard life in its true ideal significance, to see life steadily and to see it whole, it seems possible to rise above the opposition between knowledge and practice. Nevertheless, it may be said, this is a mere counsel of perfection, an ideal that cannot be realized under the actual conditions that constitute our finite and fragmentary mode of existence. We find that, as a mat ter of fact, there is a tendency to separate, and oftentimes to sharply oppose, these two aspects of experience, giving.

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book argues that rational principles and wisdom can guide our actions in an increasingly practical and materialistic world. With its core interests routed in the conflict between practical life and intellectual pursuits, the author gathers insightful commentary on knowledge and its applications across philosophy, education, literature, art, economics, and more. This book stresses the importance of distinguishing between what is practical and what is truly pragmatic, arguing that a focus on external goods alone results in a short-sighted and incomplete life. The author encourages us to resist the pressure to conform to the prevailing emphasis on practice and instead cultivate a love for knowledge and wisdom. The author also explores the dangers of succumbing to skepticism and indifference towards truth, emphasizing that a life devoid of intellectual curiosity leads to a loss of freedom and a stunted moral life. Ultimately, this book proposes that the true path to a fulfilling and meaningful life lies in embracing both intellectual pursuits and practical activities, recognizing that they are not mutually exclusive but rather complementary aspects of human existence. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Codice articolo 9781330532355_0
