Mhm about this topic, Heraclitus and Socrates (cough cough Plato..) was not in favor of written language, as he believed it staticizes the dynamic, spoken word, which provides immediate feedback to the listener. He argued that true philosophy cannot be conveyed through writing but requires a way of life to comprehend its truth (cause most of the time it gets misinterpreted by incompetent individuals). Plato critiques written language in the second part of Phaedrus through the myth of Thoth, asserting that writing has deteriorated human memory and, to some extent, hinders the understanding of ''truth''. (He also references this in the Seventh Letter, although there is debate over whether it is authentic or not.)

Said by the wiseman who never had the guts of writing a book. Is so stup·d that people don´t call Entrepreneurs wiseman. Perhaps a wiseman that came to the right ideas becomes an entrepreneur. And a guy like Socrates, if lived these times when barries are less strong, and life is longer, would had acted very differently. What and idi·t. I guess in some videos he´s gonna say some things that make sense. But his amount of stup'd ideas, per 1000 words is still high.

Only reason we can enjoy the teachings of intellectuals like Jesus, Socrates, and Buddha is because it was written down in a book at some point. This is the reason why so much of the history and philisophy of India and their greatest intellectuals and yogis have been lost to time, no one thought it was beneficial to write it all down. Though you are definitely right that pride is a major corrupting factor for intellectuals that manifests itself in such things like writing books, autobiographies, etc. rather than living their lives according to their philiosophy and instead waste their time drafting, editing, publishing, advertising, defending, etc. This is also why almost none of the greatest intellectuals in history have written autobiographies and is regarded as a form of writing generally set aside for pop figures like singers and atheletes who have little to nothing of value to say.

I think some philosophers understand the deeper nature of reality which goes deeper than what the mainstream finds important and uses as a scaffold for structuring their entire lives. They also use all their time to think and think very deeply and sometimes have trouble understanding others that don't think like they do so they're not out picking up women all the time. They have a different calling in this reality.

Great observation. Walter Isaacson makes a living writing biographies. Jesus had 4 biographies. Then we have Moses who is credited with writing the Torah; however, he probably had scribes.

There are no autobiographies or biographies of Jesus and whether it be the Christian’s Testament or the Tanach neither are historical books. We have no writings from Jesus and the authors of the gospels are also unknown with only 7 of the 13 letters of Paul actually being his. Moses died before the book of Deuteronomy ended while scholars know of 4 different sources for the “Old Testament “. It is those who follow who write the most.

What a load of bullcrap. Women are attracted to power and perfectly correct in doing so--generally, power means money and influence in civilized societies--not to navel-gazing impoverished nerds with grating personalities. It's no wonder Xianthippe tormented Socrates. She probably wanted him to get a job and bring in some regular cash instead of daydreaming all day. Perfectly sensible of her. I wonder what made her marry such a lazy dolt in the first place. She must have been desperate and thought she could change him.

The question of what we want is very tricky. With a day job, it isn't easy to go deep and wide in various philosophies, and you are doing significant work to make it more accessible. I am well-read in existentialism, more than an average guy if not good as an academic. I am curious if you can consider attacking these cross-functional topics from a very practical lens - I am going to blaber them... a) Existential Leadership In Business. How to motivate a new class of workforce. Is American positivism toxic to the extent that it suppresses authentic confrontation with a part of us? How recent traction in emotional intelligence blanket covers things and creates resistance for newer forms of leadership. Can the face of death create more earthly meaningful ways of leading that is based on authentic confrontation with the indifferent world? b) Questioning the "purpose" rhetorics of a businessman. Questioning the "motherland" rhetorics of a man in war. Are both arenas a platform to bring a part of a man i.e. what if there is no purpose at all. Does business mean efficiently and effectively satiating the desires of other humans? If so, why (a part of the answer is in this video, though) c) Lacan and Rousseau d) Self-Sabotage and so on,..,

Listen to the great Shakespeare scholar Alexander Waugh on KZbin, to find out who was the real person behind the pseudonym William Shakespeare. The debate between Waugh and Bates is quite interesting, and also Waugh's interview by James Delingpole. All the evidence points to the Elizabethen coutier Edward de Vere as the author. It's quite remarkable that there are educated folks in the 21st century who still thinks the man from Stratford wrote the plays of Shakespeare; Edward de Vere wrote the plays.
@NullifidianКүн бұрын
"Listen to the great Shakespeare scholar Alexander Waugh...." Alexander Waugh was not a Shakespeare scholar. He had no formal education in the subject of Shakespeare and his era, and he regularly did what scholars are not permitted to do, which is make crap up. For example, one time he claimed to me, in pursuance of shoring up Eva Turner Clark's impossible proposal that the lost _Portio and Demorantes_ was a transcription error for "Portia and the Merchants", that the name in _The Merchant of Venice_ had always been "Portio" until the Shakespeare editor John Payne Collier standardized it in the 19th century. Unfortunately, he made the mistake of telling that lie in a comment section other than his own, where he would have simply deleted all evidence of his dishonesty, and he made the mistake of telling it to someone who had read the First Folio in its entirety. I demonstrated using the same stage direction, where the Prince of Morocco and his train enter with Portia, that it had been Portia all along in both the 1600 first quarto and the 1623 First Folio. These resources were as available to Waugh as myself. Scans and transcriptions of the Shakespeare quartos and First Folio are omnipresent on the internet. I even have a facsimile edition of the First Folio printed by Yale University Press back in the mid-1950s. Yet instead of bothering to check, he just hauled off and made a false assertion because it flattered his prior beliefs and because he was accustomed to being in an echo chamber where every word of his was taken on absolute faith. So you should only listen to Alexander Waugh if you're willing to be lied to by a serial fantasist. "All the evidence points to the Elizabethen coutier Edward de Vere as the author." What evidence? Is there a single 16th or 17th century title page in the entire Shakespeare canon that credits the contents to Edward de Vere instead of William Shakespeare? Is Edward de Vere listed as the author in Stationers' Register entries? Is he named as the author in Revels Account entries? Is he credited with any part of the Shakespeare canon in literary anthologies of the period? (No, and sometimes de Vere and Shakespeare are named separately in the same anthologies, thus signifying that they were understood to be different authors.) Did any contemporary of Shakespeare's say clearly and unequivocally that it was known that Edward de Vere was the author of William Shakespeare's works? And, lacking any of these more direct forms of evidence, is there any stylometric evidence that shows that de Vere's acknowledged writings are a good fit for the writings in the Shakespeare canon? No, there's not even that. In fact, stylometry _excludes_ Edward de Vere decisively from having contributed anything to the Shakespeare canon, much less having written the whole thing. Meanwhile, we have the converse for William Shakespeare: it's his name on the title pages, it's his name in the Stationers' Register entries, it's his name in the Revels Accounts, his name in contemporary literary anthologies, and every contemporary who bothered to speak on the subject identified Shakespeare as an author, including numerous figures who would have known him personally like John Heminges, Henry Condell, John Lowin, Ben Jonson, John Webster, Leonard Digges, etc., etc., etc. "It's quite remarkable that there are educated folks in the 21st century who still thinks the man from Stratford wrote the plays of Shakespeare...." Perhaps they're accustomed to defer to the documentary evidence and contemporary testimony, all of which says that William Shakespeare was an author, and none of which challenges that identification. Perhaps the problem is that you're not educated enough, but you think you know more than you actually do because you've been accustomed to listen to liars like Alexander Waugh.
