Aside from love, few actvities seem to promise us as much happiness as going traveling: taking off for somewhere else, somewhere far from home, a place with more interesting weather, customs, and landscapes. But although we are inundated with advice on where to travel, few people seem to talk about why we should go and how we can become more fulfilled by doing so.

Henry at Work invites listeners to rethink how we work today by exploring an aspect of Henry David Thoreau that has often been overlooked: Thoreau the worker. John Kaag and Jonathan van Belle overturn the popular misconception of Thoreau as a navel-gazing recluse who was scornful of work and other mundanities. In fact, Thoreau worked hard—surveying land, running his family's pencil-making business, writing, lecturing, and building his cabin at Walden Pond—and thought intensely about work in its many dimensions.

Que serait la philosophie sans ces belles histoires ? La caverne de Platon, le tonneau de Diogène ou la chouette de Hegel, la philosophie aime les petites histoires qui illustrent la pensée des plus grands. Ces histoires, ces fables, éclairent des pensées parfois complexes et permettent à chacun de mieux comprendre les plus grands philosophes de l'histoire. Depuis la nuit des temps philosophiques, ces histoires sont une manière pour ces grands penseurs de se faire comprendre du plus grand nombre en privilégiant l'humour, la métaphore, ou la morale.

Human beings spend most of their time talking to themselves. Constantly preoccupied with the past and the future, we live in a perpetual state of distraction and mental turmoil.

This Very Short Introduction introduces listeners to the key concepts of political philosophy: authority, democracy, freedom and its limits, justice, feminism, multiculturalism, and nationality. Accessible and assuming no previous knowledge of the subject, it encourages the listener to think clearly and critically about the leading political questions of our time. Miller first investigates how political philosophy tackles basic ethical questions such as "how should we live together in society?" 

What does it mean to know something? Can we have confidence in our knowledge? Epistemology, the study of knowledge, can often seem like a daunting subject. And yet few topics are more basic to human life. We are inquisitive creatures by nature, and the unending quest for truth leads us to raise difficult questions about the quest itself. What are the conditions, sources, and limits of our knowledge? Do our beliefs need to be rationally justified? Can we have certainty? In this primer on epistemology, James Dew and Mark Foreman guide readers through this discipline in philosophy.

Where can we find a wellspring of inspiration to raise us from our doldrums, rekindle our enthusiasm about everyday events, and encourage us to explore untested possibilities? Maybe we can find it in familiar places: within ideas and examples of people we know that illuminate higher values to aspire to; among simple interests and pleasures that we take for granted and never fully recognize; and connected to unresolved problems that cry out for innovative solutions.

Short insight from Chassidus into passages from Tractate Sotah

Monument de la philosophie stoïcienne, Les Pensées pour moi-même ont été écrites par l'empereur romain Marc Aurèle au IIe siècle, au cours d'un règne tumultueux. Conçu au fil de l'eau comme un journal intime ou une bouteille à la mer, ce texte fait partie de ces viatiques pour l'âme qui ne craignent pas le passage du temps. Au même titre que les Essais de Montaigne ou les Pensées de Pascal, il bâtit les arches d'une méditation sur notre condition humaine, construit un pont vers la connaissance de soi.

Au moment où il écrit La Vie heureuse et De la Providence, Sénèque est un homme vieillissant, immensément riche, au terme d'une carrière politique et littéraire exceptionnelle. Ces deux textes prennent la forme de lettres : l'une adressée à son frère aîné, l'autre à l'un de ses plus proches disciples. Comment vivre en philosophe dans un monde où la sagesse n'est pas souveraine mais précaire ? Comment demeurer libre lorsque la fortune, le pouvoir ou la peur menacent à chaque instant de tout emporter ?
