Thales and the Origin of Western Philosophy
In this video, I explore the philosophy of Thales, a philosopher whom many believe to have inaugurated the Western philosophical tradition. Most contemporary accounts of Thales portray him as cutting ties to Greece's mythological past and instead adopting a thoroughly naturalistic and empirical approach to reality, an approach that is said to characterize the whole of Western philosophy. In this video, I contend that this naturalistic picture of Thales is misguided and substantially outstrips our available historical evidence. First, I show how this interpretation requires a naïve appropriation of Aristotle's assertions concerning Thales. When we look at Aristotle's account in context, we can see that he isn't so much trying to articulate an objective historical account of previous philosophers as he is trying to set forth a whigish history of philosophy that culminates in his own metaphysics. Second, I demonstrate that contemporary interpreters also ignore Aristotle's observations that Thales account parallels the mythological accounts of Homer and Hesiod. Third, I show that the contemporary view ignores the animistic implications of Thales claim that "all things are full of gods" and I argue against a Spinozistic interpretation of Thales' assertion. Fourth, I show that even the standard anecdotal stories about Thales life are more ambiguous than the naturalistic interpretation would have us believe. And finally, I argue that Goethe offers a better myth of Thales than the current naturalistic myth by examining the Classical Walpurgis Night scene in Faust Part 2.

In this video I explain the mythology of Pherecydes of Syros and show how it anticipates many later developments in Greek philosophy. Pherecydes articulates a concern for finding a first principle or Arche, an ethical conception of the gods, a concept of a demiurge, and a doctrine of the immortality of the soul. In the process of examining his work, I show how the common cliche stipulating that...

    • @premieretatphilosophy
      @premieretatphilosophy 28 днів тому

      It's referring to a distinction invented by modern Christian theologians between two senses of history. Historie is the kind of account we get by applying "scientific" principles of history and attempt to demythologize the source material and rule out events such as miracles, magic, or interaction with non-human intelligences. Broadly construed, it's taken by those who adopt this viewpoint as constituting our most warranted reconstruction of what actually occurred in the past. Geschichte, on the other hand, is supposed to be a reconstruction of events that attempts to retain the meaning of those events for the original writers of the documents and thus can retain an element of myth.

    Thanks for this! This concept is not difficult to imagine when you understand that Plato knew we lived on the inside surface of the earth. This is called "Cellular cosmogony" or "Concave Earth." I am not here to tell anyone what to believe. But the "flat earthers" are only aware of half a lie. The rest of the lie is very well documented in our history. The critical mass of humanity has been dumbed down beyond the point of critical thinking. Thank you very much for this video, I will add it to my ever growing list of evidences that demonstrate that the "Reality" provided to us from childhood isn't very "real" at all. That's exactly what we get for having faith in institutions that have done nothing but lead us astray and create more problems than they solve. Thank you again for this video!

    Metaphysics book I, Aristotle: "....they supposed the elements of numbers to be the elements of all things, and the whole heaven to be a musical scale and a number..." Could contexts have been lost in esoteric symbols and oral transmissions, and have ultimately referred to degrees of consciousness attainment, (of all levels of life, and increasingly distinguishable as a scale of number gradients, from lower to higher, (reserved for requisite understanding)?

    With this wonderful even in Germany practically forgotten or nowadays mostly misunderstood work you find yourself in the core of the German soul and mind. Like Goethe and a few others of their time Schiller had a very deep knowledge about history, German people and the political task of Middle Europe. They actually were cosmopolitans in the best sense. Schiller for instance was by far not alone by urgently warning his compatriots to better not build a nation but to "act as individuals in the world". The rest is history. In terms of practical and therapeutical "use" I`d highly recommend you to start studying the works of Rudolf Steiner who later on imo not just enhanced and refined the works of Schiller and Goethe but also delivered a new perspective on philosophy in general and its meaning in human life Anyway, thanks a lot for your video. Best wishes and Greetings from Germany !

Socrates leaning back amused as his master Timues, is entertaining him. Noone knows the full details of the first and second creations but God and demigods. Wanting to keep everything good and free of gealousy, the created is always granted the chance to creat. Even us, we are granted the chance to create literature, machines..etc.

    Awesome video, these last three have been some of your best! I wanted to ask, would you consider the "Homeric faith" and the 'Philosophic faith' to be two separate but related schools of thought? I personally conceive of it that way, with the Mysteries like Orphism and Philosophies like Platonism being a form of Esoterism in contrast to the Homeric Exoterism, by late Antiquity they would grow closer due to be Christian competition and Influence, and because of that Neoplatonists began with reading Plato Allegorically but ended up with also reading Homer and Hesiod that way. Orientalism is also something that has always being a core feature, the Greeks began with the "Secret Books of the Prygians' and ended up with the Chaldean Oracles

    • @premieretatphilosophy
      @premieretatphilosophy 6 місяців тому

      Thanks! I agree with your idea that Homeric faith and Philosophic faith are two separate but related schools of thought. The main differences I see consist in Homer’s almost exclusive emphasis on the warrior virtues of glory (κλέος) and honor (τίμη), and in his, at best, morally ambiguous depiction of the gods. The philosophic view, in contrast, would widen its sphere of concern to include the soul and its union with the Absolute through contemplation, and, as a result, come to depict the divine as something that is essentially (and unambiguously) good and just. And I think that these differences can be overcome as you note, namely, by taking an allegorical reading of the Homeric myths and treating them as exoteric articulations of an underlying esoteric truth.

    As I went through this magisterial lecture I did, unsurprising to everyone based on my screen name, notice the presenter had an irrepressible appetite for making negative comparisons with the Bible. I though I'd overlook it and just let it go, as one often must do in the academy. But when the whole lecture culminated with one such comparison it seemed to justify my suspicion that there was an axe to grind, and I thought there might be some value in offering a corrective; or perhaps in true Socratic form, enter into dialectic if there is willingness to do so. To start off, the comparison with Psalm 89 was apt, as the Old Testament contains a number of creation myths, some of which are combat myths and some are not. A short time later there was a jab taken at God's "jealousy" and another taken at his participation in "human vices." The Hebrew word translated "jealousy" (קנא) is semantically broader than our word jealousy and does not always carry the same negative connotation. It may be used of "zeal" for example, or of an appropriate affection and defensive posture for that which is good, such as a man's loving concern for his wife. This caricature of petty jealousy, well known from a few pieces of popular antagonistic literature, is ultimately traceable to an unfortunate quirk of English translation. The greatest irony is at the end when Timaeus is pitched as a story in which people are invited to know and ultimately shine like the divine stars of heaven, as where Genesis, again, is showcased as a lackluster alternative. A few misunderstandings here. OT scholars debate the meaning of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, but they are quite certain the tree does not represent factual knowledge as such. Usually it's understood to mean something like establishing moral autonomy apart from the creator god, which even Timaeus would not permit since it is divine proportionality that becomes the rubric for human moral aspiration. The flourish about shining like the stars is ironic as well. Biblical scholars discern a story in which humans are meant to ascend to the divine council in exactly these terms, star-like terms. This is why the wise shine like the stars in Daniel 12, language usually reserved for divine beings. This language escalates in the Second Temple Period with figures like Philo who claims the children of Abraham are "like the stars" not only in quantity but in divine quality; and even Paul in 1 Corinthians 15 seems to be drawing on this ascent to divinity with his star language as a description of resurrection. The notion that the whole biblical narrative is about humans elevating themselves to the stars has even become a sort of subculture under biblical scholar Michael Heiser, which is why it was so strange to me to see this projected as precisely the sort of thing the biblical writers know nothing about. The presenter, in other words, did extraordinarily well when he remained in his lane - and I mean that as an authentic compliment on his talents. His animus, however, took him places where his fluency was broken.

    I've only watched Wagner's Parsifal. I couldn't understand how Percival could possibly know what question to ask. Also, when he returned to the castle, he didn't ask the question then, either. He simply became king instead of Amfortas. Does von Eisenbach's story explain these things?

    • @premieretatphilosophy
      @premieretatphilosophy 6 місяців тому

      Yeah, the question itself doesn’t seem to play much of a role in Wagner’s Parsifal. The emphasis seems to be more on the underlying virtue of compassion (Mitleid). Wolfram’s use of the question will probably also strike one as strange from a contemporary perspective, since Parzival is blamed for something seemingly beyond his control, given that he didn’t know that there was a healing question to be asked and was actually trying to follow the rules his teacher Gurnemanz had given him when he remained quiet. And similar things can be said about his guilt for killing his kinsman Ither and his involvement in the death of his mother. Wolfram is operating more in the realm of original sin or Aristotelian tragic hamartia than what we would think of as moral responsibility in a contemporary sense.

    Thank you for this rich depiction. As you move between descriptions of eternal principles and temporal events so also an element of my I experience itself now temporal now eternal. Perhaps this is what Fichte also experienced as he battled against the Kantian image of man. Concerning fertilization, that is the bringing of order into chaos, we can also consider the polar opposite of how irrational numbers (undetermined) are that factor that loosens up the determined world, seeds of chaos or indeed of life.

    God = Reality = Life Absolute = All-inclusive That which is, that is nothing in particular (actual), is by definition everything in general (potential). 0. Potential = Being 1. Actual = Becoming (actualized) Life eternally actualizes infinite potential, because only Eternity can fully embrace Infinity. The abstract (Heaven) can be expressed concretely (Earth) as a smile, hug, etc., thereby uniting Heaven and Earth. Psyche/Soul: Father = Mind = Inspiration Mother = Heart = Aspiration Child = Will = Volition Integration = Integrity = Soul When the Heart aspires, the Mind inquires and the Will conspires (combines). 'Now' is the presence of the eternal/Infinite within the temporal/finite, simply being aware of being aware. Being For (positive)/not For (neutral) is inherently sustainable (good). Being against (negative) is inherently unsustainable (evil).
