« Le spectre d’un avenir potentiellement sinistre, proche ou lointain, est par définition incertain et donc ne légitime aucunement une réaction fataliste et défaitiste, par opposition à constructive et préventive dans la mesure du possible. Nous aurons une éternité pour faire le mort quand tout sera vraiment sens dessus dessous et que la terre prendra la place de l’air dans nos narines. D’ici là, nous sommes tenus de fournir un effort quotidien pour mettre de l’ordre dans nos idées et nos affaires, et ainsi nous montrer dignes de la vie qui nous anime encore. »- Laurent Grenier, extrait du chapitre « Les menaces existentielles ».__________À propos de « La vie revisit...

In this book, you will find information about five different philosophers, some of them well-known, others less. But all of them had a significant impact on the ancient world and how people thought, as well as some of our modern-day ideas. The first in line is Marcus Aurelius, a stoic emperor who reigned with righteousness and justice, according to historical records. The second is Hipparchia, a cynic who broke through traditions and took a second look at society and its principles. Third is a somewhat better-known historical figure called Heraclitus of Ephesus. This Greek thinker who noted that “life is flux”, meaning that all things change constantly. Fourth is Diogenes of Sinope, a Greek philosopher who was known for holding a candlelight to people’s faces in search for honest people. His studies in Athens have left their mark. The last this guide mentions and discusses, is Parmenides, founder of the Eleatic School of philosophy. He talked about the “way in which it is and the way in which it is not.” These wise theorists can inspire you if you let them. Go ahead and start reading the E-Book or listening to the audiobook.
Face aux atrocités rencontrées par les Africains, certaines personnalités fortes décident de se mesurer à l'anathème : Amo Afer est de ceux-là. Kidnappé dans un village de bord de mer en Afrique occidentale (Gold Coast) vers l'âge de trois ans et embarqué pour la Hollande, un duc allemand le reçoit en cadeau. Grâce à cette famille ducale, il fait de bonnes études et devient professeur d'université. De tels hommes de caractère doivent être connus et Amo devrait, dans cette perspective, être rangé dans le peloton de tête : il mérite d'ailleurs de servir de modèle à ses congénères.

The condemnation of memory inexorably altered the visual landscape of imperial Rome. This volume catalogues and interprets the sculptural, glyptic, numismatic and epigraphic evidence for "damnatio memoriae" and ultimately reveals its praxis to be at the core of Roman cultural identity.
