Abstract

Socrates is regarded as the founder of Western philosophical inquiry. Yet he left no writings and claimed to know ‘nothing fine or worthy.' he spent his life perplexing those who encountered him and is as important and perplexing now as he was 2500 years ago. Drawing on the various competing sources for Socrates that are available, Socrates: A Guide for the Perplexed guides the reader through the main themes nd ideas of Socrates' thought. Taking into account the puzzles surrounding his trial and death, the philosophical methods and ethical positions associated with him, and his lasting influence, Sara Ahbel-Rappe presents a concise and accessible introduction. She concludes by suggesting that it is in fact the Socratic insistence on self-knowledge that makes Socrates at once so pivotal and so elusive for the student of philosophy

Abstract

Loin d'etre le premier philosophe, Socrate n'est-il pas le premier vrai therapeute ? N'est-il pas celui qui a le mieux compris les effets qu'il faut produire pour modifier son rapport a soi et au monde ?C'est l'hypothese qu'explore ici Francois Roustang. Ce livre est d'abord une patiente tentative pour retrouver la veritable originalite de Socrate a travers les textes qui s'en font l'echo. Mais cette quete prend aussi une dimension qui nous touche directement : pour le therapeute qu'est Francois Roustang, il s'agit de nous faire comprendre comment il est possible de produire une modification de l'existence en acte et pas seulement en pensee. La lecon de Socrate pour aller mieux ?Therapeute dissident de la psychanalyse, Francois Roustang mene depuis des annees une reflexion radicale sur les conditions du changement. Elle l'a amene a redecouvrir la fecondite de l'hypnose pour produire une modification profonde de notre regard sur nous-memes et de notre rapport au monde. Sa trilogie La Fin de la plainte, Il suffit d'un geste, Savoir attendre le range parmi les auteurs les plus originaux en France dans son domaine.
