Thoughts Out of Season by Friedrich Nietzsche - The Complete Work Plus an Overview, Summary, Analysis and Author Biography , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 725min

Thoughts Out of Season is a collection of paramount importance consisting of four notable essays written between 1873 and 1876. All four essays review 19th-century German culture in an incisive and acute manner. It is a work of acerbic criticism toward contemporary pseudoscholars who Nietzsche calls Philistines and towards the blatant abuse of history. At the same time it constitutes an encomium to Wagner's ingenious artistic and creative nature and to Schopenhauer's unique perspective of the cosmos. A fifth essay was also written as a meditation to the discipline of philology, yet it was not published. This summary includes a biography, a review of every chapter of each essay, and ample explanation of the social and historical background. It is a must-hear synopsis and analysis of this substantial work of Nietzsche, imperative for all students of philosophy or all those who want to familiarize themselves with the magnificent spirit of that great philosopher of the 19th century. ungekürzt.

Symposium, Hörbuch, Digital, 142min

The Symposium (Ancient Greek: Συμπόσιον, Sympósion [sympósi̯on]) is a philosophical text by Plato dated c. 385-370 BC. It depicts a friendly contest of extemporaneous speeches given by a group of notable men attending a banquet. The men include the philosopher Socrates, the general and political figure Alcibiades, and the comic playwright Aristophanes. The speeches are to be given in praise of Eros, the god of love and desire.In the Symposium, Eros is recognized both as erotic love and as a phenomenon capable of inspiring courage, valor, great deeds and works, and vanquishing man's natural fear of death. It is seen as transcending its earthly origins and attaining spiritual heights. This extraordinary elevation of the concept of love raises a question of whether some of the most extreme extents of meaning might be intended as humor or farce. Eros is almost always translated as "love", and the English word has its own varieties and ambiguities that provide additional challenges to the effort to understand the Eros of ancient Athens.The event depicted in the Symposium is a banquet attended by a group of men, who have come to the symposium, which was, in ancient Greece, a traditional part of the same banquet that took place after the meal, when drinking for pleasure was accompanied by music, dancing, recitals, or conversation. The setting means that the participants will be drinking wine, meaning that the men might be induced to say things they wouldn't say elsewhere or when sober. They might speak more frankly, or take more risks, or else be prone to hubris-they might even be inspired to make speeches that are particularly heartfelt and noble.The host has challenged the men to deliver, each, in turn, an encomium—a speech in praise of Love (Eros). Though other participants comply with this challenge, Socrates notably refuses to participate in such an act of praise and instead takes a very different approach to the topic.
