Maarten Doorman Rousseau
Een hoorcollege over de uitvinder van het authentieke in onszelf
Vanaf Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) zijn we in de greep van het verlangen naar echtheid en authenticiteit. Naar de natuur, naar spontaniteit, jeugd, vriendschap en liefde. Meer dan 300 jaar geleden werd Rousseau geboren, maar de uitvinder van het ik is nog altijd onder ons. Dankzij sociale media snappen we meer dan ooit dat we onszelf moeten spelen. Denk ook aan de geregisseerde echtheid van het programma Boer Zoekt Vrouw en de door mediatraining gestuurde oprechtheid van de politicus. Er loopt...

Joseph Norio Uemura Uemura’s Reflections on the Mind of Plato
"Plato was not a Platonist! I would like to show . . . that anyone who reads the dialogues of Plato without bias or an ax to grind will find a humorous, witty, pleasant friend; and not a desiccated scholarly mandarin. Plato was an open-minded, tolerant, reasonable individual, not a tight-lipped, pietistic, puritan. In a word, Plato was an Athenian, not a Spartan!" In the twenty-four centuries that have passed since the Athenians put Socrates to death, every generation has interpreted the meaning...

Albert A. Anderson Anderson’s Reality and the Arts
Art is the creative manifestation of essences. In order to understand the relation between art and reality, we need a philosophical guide. The best way to comprehend how the creative act of imagining enables the mind to seek reality is to employ the kind of dialectical thinking that Plato used in his dialogues. Beginning with the shadows on the wall of the cave in which each person dwells, that process gradually enables us to grasp the essences that are manifested in individual works of art. Without...

Walter Parks Jesus
The Missing Years
The Bible tells us of Jesus' birth and of His being in the temple in Jerusalem when He was a boy of 12. But then there is no further mention of Him until about 20 years later when He starts His ministry. Where was He? Why did the Bible not say? After an intensive search and study of The Dead Sea Scrolls and other ancient documents, I found where God gave instructions, through His Prophets, for the preparation of a place in the wilderness for His Son Jesus. The instructions were followed. A place...

A. Faber De gemaakte planeet
leven in het antropoceen
We leven in het Antropoceen, het tijdperk van de mens. De invloed van de mens op het reilen en zeilen van de aarde is groter dan ooit tevoren. In een meeslepend betoog geeft Albert Faber betekenis aan deze constatering. Hij neemt ons aan de hand van vele denkers mee van de Malediven naar de Andes, van Siberië naar de Oostvaardersplassen, van de allereerste steden tot aan onze technologische toekomst. Daarbij probeert hij antwoord te geven op vragen als: Wat houdt het Antropoceen in? En hoe kunnen...
