another Aristotelian virtues and vices Core Concept video -- a few more of these to shoot, edit, and upload, and I'll have the entire sequence available online

Gregory B. Sadler, got back from work, watching. Mmm... So basically you teach philosophy to young adults? Sounds like fun! :) I haven't read any Aristotle I'm afraid, but "feel fear on the right occasions in the right amount & have the correct response" sounds pretty logical. I almost LOL'd at "gambling requires a sort of courage" though, I have to say. ;) I guess that makes it the _vice of the virtuous._ Hehe. It was a cool lecture, only wish you'd covered a bit more material perhaps (even if at the cost of a few examples). But then again, I'm not exactly an expert. ;)

I'd have to be very rash to watch them all in one sitting, Gregory B. Sadler. ;)

Thank you so much Dr Saddler. I am currently writing a paper on Aristotle and Gandhi on the virtue of courage. This was very helpful. Very clear and understandable lecture. Thank you for doing this.

I think I need to be more courageous. The motivation is to have a good character., which one then feels good in having self-respect. IF I err, I err on the cowardly side, and the little sparring I have done was to overcome the fear of combat. But I think I should have done more. As real physical combat is not likely in my everyday life it would be a fear of poverty or a lack of freedom with my time or of what I can and will think that is more a real issue. I have taken steps to give reasons to have confidence in the face of these fears. I feared I was not as intelligent as many other people, and had ambition to learn as much as i could, though I do not think that training at Luminosity will improve my memory, my problem solving, my reasoning ability. I thought philosophy would help me with that. I think I may be arrogant: I am not afraid of being dead, but the dying is scary. Some of the people whom I have seen die suffered greatly shortly before their death. I fear never completing this ill-defined search for wisdom before dying.Hand to hand physical combat with no limits. Having an entire society make it impossible for me to earn a living, while demanding payment. Losing my mind: my knowledge and my self-control. I disagree. It is not reasonable to be afraid of a horror movie: one should know it is not real.Startled and grossed out maybe. The only thing more intimate that physical combat is sex. Speaking the truth when platitudes and cliches are being said at meetings at work. Not stepping in when one sees a) a man punch a woman b) a bouncer choke a man almost unconscious, c)a group of bullies bad mouthing a person, c) neighbors having a routine argument with violent sounds of furnishings breaking ( and that neighbors two dobermans running freely through their neighbors property). As a teacher, I risk revealing my ignorance, or the limited degree of my knowledge.

Just so I'm not crazy..... You did have the Vice deficiency and Vice excess backwards as written on the blackboard???? A courage vice excess should actually be "rashness" and a courage vice deficiency would be "cowardice." This was mislabeled. Ironically, I kept waiting for one of the students to display some of that Aristotelian courage that was being discussed and point out that what was wrote on the board was incorrect.

You've got it wrong. Fear. Excessive fear. Not excessive courage. The videos presuppose the actual text, in which this is pretty clear

+Gregory B. Sadler Ok. Thank you for the clarification. I have read the text, but for whatever reason I failed to make the proper interpretation.

I find this talk ironic given that most of your class seems terrified to speak up or say anything. I encountered a profound aversion to talking in public places when I was in college... pity really, I try and shake people out of it much as possible but it's not easy task. Good talk by the way.

It's strange that you would think -- without being able to see any of the class -- that you could generalize that "most" of them are "terrified". Some days, they're more willing to talk, other days not.

True, I was jumping the gun - pushing personal experience upon a viewing. My mistake.
