Description
This guide aims to show philosophy not as a boring discipline, but as a pursuit, an aspiration, a love of wisdom, as interesting and entertaining reflection.
Entertaining philosophy means thoughts and reflections, thought-images, parables, anecdotes, interesting arguments, jokes, poems.
Tasks and exercises in philosophy — for university students and everyone interested in philosophy.
Can Achilles catch up with the tortoise?
Why did Buridan’s ass die?
Which came first: the chicken or the egg?
What does the phrase “Colorless green ideas sleep furiously” mean?
Can one know the faculty of cognition before one cognizes?
Can something meaningless be endowed with meaning, or can the senseless be made meaningful?
The audiobook “Entertaining Philosophy” is a collection of interesting thoughts and reflections, as well as parables, anecdotes, jokes, and stories from the lives of famous philosophers.
After listening to it, you will understand that philosophy is not a boring discipline and not at all “the ability to distinguish Hegel from Bebel, Bebel from Babel, and Babel from a mongrel.” It is a fascinating science, a love of wisdom, an engaging reflection!
