ISBN: 9780393047257 - a map to the end of time: wayfarings with friends and philosophers (19 risultati)

Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. Ronald Manheimer began to teach philosophy to a group of senior citizens in the hope that their experiences might help connect him to the great philosphical ideas and clarify his thoughts about aging and mortality. His conversations with his students and others around him provide him with dazzling new insight into his own life and his place in the world. A gifted teacher and philosopher, Manheimer's recounting of his class' discussions are playful and profound. When some of Manheimer's younger students take part in the class' philosphical search, an interesting fusion of generations and ideas occurs. Manheimer, his students and the reader all come closer to understanding that becoming a self is to become a citizen of the world of interconnected ideas and beliefs. In these tales which explore answers to life's Big Questions, Manheimer reinvigorates the ancient tradition of using storytelling to explore truth. Showing how ideas and lives can illuminate one another, his engaging narratives address these questions while providing an inviting exploration of the ideas of thinkers from Plato and Aristotle to Kierkegaard, John Stuart Mill and Martin Buber.…
