Story
Heroes, gods, and mortals. The Greek myths are the founding narratives of Western civilization: to understand them is to know the origins of philosophy, literature, art, science, law, and more. Indeed, as Luc Ferry shows in this masterful book, they remain a great store of wisdom, as relevant to our lives today as ever before.

Luc Ferry, en spécialiste et traducteur de Kant, nous offre une présentation extraordinairement claire et vivante des trois œuvres majeures du philosophe allemand - ses trois "critiques", sommets de la pensée mondiale. Avec un rare sens pédagogique, il parvient à en rendre évidentes les idées, l'originalité, mais aussi l'étonnante actualité.

Story
René Descartes, philosophe français par excellence, ouvre l'ère de la modernité. Sa volonté est de s'extraire des préjugés et des certitudes non prouvées, de passer l'intégralité du monde au crible du doute pour pouvoir penser par soi-même. Fondateur de la philosophie du sujet, il base tout l'édifice de la science et de la connaissance sur la réflexion humaine, le fameux cogito.

Philosophe majeur de l'idéalisme allemand, Hegel se propose de dépasser la contradiction, emblématique de son époque, entre la philosophie des Lumières, incarnée par Kant, et le Romantisme contre-révolutionnaire. Pour relever ce défi, il va construire l'un des systèmes les plus grandioses de l'histoire de la philosophie. Au fondement de cette œuvre immense, les réponses nouvelles qu'apporte l'auteur à deux questions léguées par la tradition.

Story
Premier grand philosophe contemporain, Schopenhauer ouvre l'ère du soupçon, l'ère de l'inconscient de Marx, de Freud et de Nietzsche. Bien que sa déconstruction des idées traditionnelles le conduise au constat de l'absurdité de la vie, son pessimisme n'est que provisoire. Par l'art, la morale, la sagesse, Schopenhauer nous arrache à nos peurs et entame la construction d'une doctrine du salut.

"Nul hasard si le premier livre écrit dans l'histoire de l'humanité, au XVIIIème siècle avant JC, "L'Epopée de Gilgamesh", raconte déjà l'affreuse souffrance qui s'empare des humains quand la mort vient leur enlever l'être aimé. Depuis, sages, théologiens et philosophes n'ont cessé de proposer des réponses, de chercher des solutions face à ce déchirement."

"Le point de départ de ce livre audio est une conférence dans laquelle j'ai présenté à un large public les points essentiels de mon livre Apprendre à vivre. On y trouvera une réflexion sur ce qu'est la philosophie, sur ce qu'elle peut nous apporter en termes de sagesse pratique, sur les temps forts qui ont marqué son histoire. J'y développe l'idée selon laquelle les grandes philosophies sont, pour l'essentiel, des doctrines du salut sans Dieu, des tentatives de nous sauver des peurs qui nous empêchent de parvenir à une vie bonne."

Story
Freud, figure majeure de ces penseurs que Paul Ricœur nomme "les philosophes du soupçon" est, on le sait, le père d'une approche radicalement nouvelle de l'expérience humaine : la psychanalyse. Le débat contemporain, polarisé sur la question de la validité scientifique des thèses freudiennes, oublie trop souvent d'en interroger le sens profond et d'en mesurer l'influence toujours vivante.

Story
Dans ce livre audio, Luc Ferry raconte comment les plus grands penseurs de l'antiquité, Platon, Aristote ou encore les stoïciens, ont repris l'héritage de la mythologie grecque pour parvenir à proposer une magnifique doctrine de la sagesse, une spiritualité laïque qui traversera les siècles et qui nous parle encore aujourd'hui. Pour l'essentiel, il s'agit de montrer que la vie bonne réside dans la mise en harmonie de soi avec l'harmonie du monde.

"Penseur controversé, beaucoup critiqué mais finalement méconnu, Nietzsche nous est ici dévoilé dans toute sa profondeur et sa finesse. La critique du nihilisme, la mort de Dieu, l'Amor fati, le grand style : harmonie entre les forces, la doctrine de l'éternel retour, autant de notions complexes qui deviennent accessibles grâce au talent de Luc Ferry qui fait de la philosophie un espace démocratique de partage et de réflexion."

Non, ce n'était pas mieux avant ! Luc Ferry s'associe à Nicolas Bouzou, essayiste et économiste, pour dresser un portrait de notre société contemporaine et mesurer le chemin parcouru au cours des deux derniers siècles. L'innovation est une destruction créatrice qui bouleverse les ordres établis, et devient un facteur de peur et d'incertitude, pourtant les bénéfices réels et potentiels doivent être reconnus.

Luc Ferry réplique par un optimisme lucide basé sur les nouvelles réalités de notre société.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.
