Take the challenge: Philosophy
Posted by profpam - 27/12/09 at 11:12:37 amFrom the Telegraph UK Ben Fogle’s latest challenge: philosophy.
The discussions are expertly led, with the conversation focusing on how we can best apply ancient philosophy to our modern-day lives. Socrates, Sartre and Foucault are all cited as useful philosophers we can learn from.
There is a lavish breakfast laid out for us, which goes some way to settling any nerves we might have. The discussions are expertly led, with the conversation focusing on how we can best apply ancient philosophy to our modern-day lives. Socrates, Sartre and Foucault are all cited as useful philosophers we can learn from.
The event was part of American Express’ new Realise the Potential campaign which has been encouraging people to try new experiences and enrich their lives through learning new skills.
Philosophy is not only an interesting subject but it is invaluable in that it enables you to see your life through fresh eyes. There is a lot I am going to take away with me from this.
I hate to rain on someone’s newly found interest in philosophy, but I wonder about the approach to “philosophy” or “philosophizing” that was used. Of course, I’m partial to Socrates, the question apparently was, “How should I live my life?” But it seems as though “practical philosophy” was what they were doing. Hard to tell. I’ll monitor this for the promised updates.
