Fellow Philosophers,
Sending a special Saturday version of our Weekend Roundup since we got a day behind with American Thanksgiving.
A quick recap of this series, we studied 4 core elements of 7 major philosophical traditions and thinkers:
Epistemology: Theories of how we acquire knowledge (ie revelation, reflection, observation etc.)
Ontology: The object of study (ie god, the self, reality etc.)
Ethics: What was good and why
Greatest Work: Only my opinion, feel free to comment!
These elements help us to quickly understand a lot of information in a meaningful way.
Plus, now when you visit your family for the holidays you can confidently say things like “epistemic” or “ontological” and everyone will be impressed. You’re welcome.
I’ll post a short summary with links to the newsletters below, most of them have audio recordings so feel free to catch up and listen to one that interests you!
