Acerca de esta escucha
Born in Athens, Greece, acclaimed Yale-educated philosopher Samuel Loncar helps you discover how ancient Greek philosophy - or “love of wisdom” - forms powerful bridges between East and West as well as past and present.
In this provocative audio course, you will explore Greek philosophy in its historical context, in which philosophy was not just an intellectual pursuit but a way of life integrating the mind, body, and cosmos. By delving into the works of Greece’s greatest thinkers, including Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, you’ll gain powerful tools for self-discovery.
Greek philosophy is the foundation of Western civilization, but it is rooted in the wisdom of African and Near Eastern philosophy. These 15 illuminating lectures explore how ancient Greek philosophers saw themselves as members of a multicultural tradition and project that could heal political strife and help humans find peace.
As you journey through the diverse thoughts and ideas that form the basis of Western civilization, you’ll find answers to some of culture’s most significant questions: What is the connection between Eastern and Western philosophical traditions? Do we have souls, and should we be concerned about them? What can philosophy offer me in my daily pursuit of peace and contentment?
At the conclusion of this course, you will have an excellent overview of the essential foundations of Western philosophy and understand how these ancient ways can help you live well in the modern world.
This course is part of the Learn25 collection.

Seeing self-possession as the key to an existence lived 'in accordance with nature', the Stoic philosophy called for the restraint of animal instincts and the importance of upright ethical ideals and virtuous living. Seneca's writings are a profound, powerfully moving and inspiring declaration of the dignity of the individual mind.

In 1942, the Allies were losing, Germany seemed unstoppable, and every able man in England was on the front lines. To "set Europe ablaze," in the words of Winston Churchill, the Special Operations Executive (SOE), whose spies were trained in everything from demolition to sharpshooting, was forced to do something unprecedented: recruit women. Thirty-nine answered the call, leaving their lives and families to become saboteurs in France.

Explore some of the most powerful theological ideas, economic tensions, and political struggles that shaped Western civilization. This series traces western European civilization - with detours to the East - from the transformation of the Roman Empire to a thousand-year medieval period that started slowly before 1000, flowered for 300 years, and then declined sharply with the Black Death and social revolts until Constantinople fell in 1453 and Columbus sailed in 1492.

Although it was originally published in 1892, Early Greek Philosophy by John Burnet remains unquestionably one of the most respected and admired surveys of the pre-Socratics. It is an illuminating springboard into classical Greek philosophy.

A lively and relevant exploration
Dr. Loncar does an excellent job of bringing what could be seen as a dusty, obsolete topic to vivid, breathing life. His passion for Ancient Greek philosophy and belief its continued relevance today are infectious. After the first lecture on why Greek Philosophy matters, you'll be hooked.
