Philosophic thought

philosophical ideology discussed by many philosophers. Whether by means of Spirit, Geist, reason, individualism, or other ideas, philosophers have theorized the correlation between history and it unfolding into eventual true freedom. Three such philosophic minds are that of G.W.F. (Georg Wilhelm Friedrich) Hegel, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Friedrich Nietzsche. Although each of the philosopher’s ideas on the role history plays in several ways, they all believe that its end result is significant in the

1. Philosophic Exercise (p. 191) - Moral Consensus I agree with kidder that If we inhabit on the various differences that are among the interpretations of the one being in the state of good life, we are more easily and likely to miss and lose various similarities.

as a whole? However, there are actually many ways in which Philosophy can be extremely useful in terms of application to our lives. The act of philosophizing is an inescapable part of human existence. Almost everyone has pondered on essentially philosophic questions such as: "What is my purpose in life?" "Is there an afterlife?" and

act of thinking when examined from a philosophic standpoint has at least two potential meanings, either calculative or contemplative thinking. Though both are called thinking, calculative thinking is centered more as a memory management system in which facts and memories already established through life and learning are recalled. Calculative thought has the potential to unlock many things within science and life though ideas unlocked in this method of thought lead to an extension of what was already

William Blake and Anna Letitia Barbauld both constructed various works that dealt with the concept of human life. From thought being the source of life, and therefore the death of an individual, to a human containing the same soulful potential of a common animal. “The Fly,” a work by Blake, embarks on the interpretation that human existence is based upon thoughts; “The Human Abstract,” also wrote by Blake, uses imagery to transforms human emotions into the nature that surrounds us all; and “The Mouse’s

According to Russell the value of philosophy is in what it does for the person who studies it. He makes the point that goods of the mind are as important in life as goods of the body. He says that the main value of philosophy is that it enlarges one’s thoughts, brings one into union with the “not-Self”, and helps us avoid being caught in narrowness as human beings. His main ideas are that philosophy is to be studied to enrich our intellects, diminish our dogmatism, and make us citizens of the universe

What got me very interested in, was how people see what human nature is all about. Basically, human nature is the qualities that make someone a human being. People all around the world have a way to show who they are and express their true colors. What shocked me the most that human nature is the things we do to satisfy ourselves instead of the other person. When Velasquez says that we give money to someone who is homeless not because we just want to help, so we don’t feel guilty later that we didn’t

are passive due to its relation to senses. For instance, if two people,fin and Jack, are walking in the opposite direction of each other and Jack is looking at fin. Then, for jack fin exist. On the other hand jack doesn’t exist for fin. A similar philosophic way was used by Descartes. He used the scientific method of analyzing his abilities and knowledge in relation to the existence of god. For

To evaluate oneself, to truly invest the time and the effort into digging into the deepest recesses of one’s mind is not a quest that is as clear cut as it may seem to be. Evaluating oneself would seem to be the simplest task, to think to oneself, “Who am I? What things are important to me?” You could start with the easy ones. Family, friends, love, happiness. But what about topics outside of that? What world do I really want to live in? What kind of issues are at the forefront of my mind, the kind

example, one of the friend of my father sent a message to his friend that he chatted after an interval of several years. In the message, he said “Are you alive?” It was his joke. However, the person who received the message was depressed because she thought he had looked to be at death’s door. Fortunately, they got the record straight. However, misunderstanding can be caused in business writing. Supposing they had been an employee and the boss, their relationship would have been ended. There
