Confessions of a philosopher: Bryan Magee's final interview

As a philosophy student in the 1980s, the New Statesman's editor-in-chief Jason Cowley learned more from Bryan Magee than from any seminar or lecture. Magee's 1987 BBC television series The Great Philosophers, described by one critic as “two boffins on a sofa”, examined some of life's most recondite questions in an accessible way. Magee was also a prolific author (of philosophy, poetry and fiction), a Labour and then an SDP politician. But when Cowley later met Magee, sent to interview him by the Times in 1997, he was struck by something the philosopher said as he left: “I get the impression that you feel I am lonely and unfulfilled.” Was he? Eleven years later, now editor of the New Statesman, Cowley visited Magee in a nursing hospital in Oxford, shortly after publication of the 87-year-old's book Ultimate Questions. The issues that had made Magee restless in his sixties still loomed large: “What the hell is it all about?” he asked, and compared himself unfavourably to Bertrand Russell and Karl Popper, men he had known (“they were a whole class above me in intelligence”). In this rich and beautifully observed profile, Cowley explores these themes, as well as the formative years of one of Britain's most interesting thinkers. Written and read by Jason Cowley.

Dnes bude reč o nemeckom filozofovi Friedrichovi Heglovi, ktorý ovplyvnil, pozitívne či negatívne, také významné mená filozofie ako Soren Kierkegaard, Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger, Jacques Derrida, Charles Taylor a mnoho ďalších.----more---- Prečo sú ľudské dejiny nasmerované čo je to ten „duch“, či Geist, ktorý sa v nich rozvíja? Ako funguje Heglova dialektika a čo má do činenia so vzťahom pána a otroka, našim každodenným myslením či dokonca súkromným vlastníctvom?

Morálka sa často chápe ako systém hodnôt, pravidiel a princípov, ktoré, ak sú správne nastavené, nám má pomôcť viesť dobrý život. Samozrejme, morálok existujú rôzne druhy, ale predpoklad je ten, že----more---- ak si vyberieme ako celá spoločnosť tú správnu, potom sa nám bude žiť dobre.

O Williamsovi som už hovoril v 99. dávke a v závere ju pripomeniem, ako skvelé pokračovanie ten dnešnej, ktorá bude kritická práve voči morálke: voči morálke ako morálnemu systému.

Introduction I am Ixion, strapped to the burning wheel of fire in the underworld that is my life. A bleak assessment to be sure, but I put it to you that it is the truth. For what is life if not an ever-swinging pendulum of pain and boredom, kept in motion by the insatiable will? I constantly strive for the things that I want, but what I want is never enough; long-term satisfaction is tedium elegantly veiled. This alone is a cruel trick to the individual, but in a world of many, it is the ultimate tragedy. The wills of the multitude cannot avoid the inevitable conflict, as one will’s ends treats another as its means. The tiger feasts on the wild dog, who feasts on the baby turtle, all to propagate life so that future generations can play out this tragic scene ad infinitum. In human life - save rare moments of true compassion - we are little better. Yet, there is a hint of salvation.  What if we all realised that, at our core, we are the same will? What if we could make the wheel of Ixion stand still, if only for a moment? Would it be possible to see beauty? Would it be possible to see to fellow sufferers rather than fellow egos? I suspect it might, but I am afraid that I, and many others, are easily fooled. ‘The Will’ will do as it pleases, and not what pleases us. Contents Part I. The Life of Arthur Schopenhauer Part II.

65. Nietzsche: Boh je mŕtvy. Dovidenia sloboda?

Nedávno som cez „messenger story“ zverejnil na 24 hodín krátky úryvok z eseje Vzbúrený človek od Alberta Camusa, kde ponúka zarážajúcu interpretáciu niektorých kľúčových myšlienok Friedricha Nietzscheho. Keďže táto pasáž vyvolala ako pozitívne tak i negatívne ohlasy, rozhodol som sa s vami dnes nad ňou zamyslieť. Nietzsche je básnikom a jedna interpretácia jeho diela naviac nemôže uškodiť----more----Úryvok #1„Súhrn všetkého, čo je možné, ešte netvorí slobodu, ale na druhej strane sa každý nedosiahnuteľný cieľ rovná otroctvu. Aj sám chaos je svojím spôsobom otroctvom. Sloboda jestvuje len vo svete, kde to, čo je možné, je súčasne definované ako to, čo nie je možné. Bez zákona niet slobody. Ak osud nie je usmerňovaný nejakou vyššou hodnotou, ak je kráľom náhoda, je to cesta do temnôt, strašná sloboda slepca. Na vrchole najväčšieho oslobodenia Nietzsche teda volí najväčšiu možnú závislosť. „Ak neurobíme zo smrti Boha niečo ako veľké sebaodriekanie a ustavičné víťazstvo nad sebou samými, bude utrpenie nenapraviteľné.“ Inými slovami, u Nietzscheho revolta ústi do askézy. Karamazovo „ak nič nie je pravda, všetko je dovolené“ teda nahrádza hlbšia logika – „ak nič nie je pravda, nič nie je dovolené“. Poprieť, že na tomto svete je zakázaná jediná vec, znamená zriecť sa toho, čo je dovolené. Tam, kde už nemôže nikto povedať, čo je čierne a čo je biele, svetlo zhasína a sloboda sa mení sa dobrovoľné väzenie.“ Úryvok #2 „Nietzsche sa teda vracia ku koreňom myslenia, k predsokratikom. Tí vylučovali konečné príčiny, lebo večnosť princípu, ktorý si predstavovali, chceli nechať nedotknutý. Večná je len sila, bezcieľna sila, Herakleitova „hra“. Nietzsche sa iba usiluje dokázať, že zákon je obsiahnutý v dianí a hra v nevyhnutnosti: „Dieťa, to je nevinnosť a zabudnutie, večné začínanie, hra, koleso, ktoré sa krúti samo od seba, prvý pohyb, posvätný dar hovoriť áno.“ Svet je božský, pretože je bezúčelný. Preto ho môže pochopiť iba umenie svojou stálou bezdôvodnosťou. O svete nepodáva správu nijaký súd, ale umenie nás môže naučiť svet opakovať, tak ako sa svet sám opakuje v podobe večných návratov. Prapôvodné more neúnavne opakuje na piesočnom brehu tie isté slová a vyhadzuje naň tie isté bytosti v úžase, že žijú. A prinajmenej pre toho, kto súhlasí s návratom a ku komu sa všetko navracia, kto celým svojim srdcom rezonuje, sa toto umenie podieľa na božstve sveta.“ Použitá a odporúčaná literatúra: Albert Camus, Vzbúrený človek (Slovenský spisovateľ, 2004). Brian Leiter, "Nietzsche's Moral and Political Philosophy", The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (2015 ), plato.stanford.edu/archives/win2015/entries/nietzsche-moral-political.Bryan Magee hovorí o filozofii Friedricha Nietzscheho s J.

Matthew Sweet and guests discuss the state of academic philosophy in the UK today. It's often thought of as being difficult, abstract, and far-removed from the concerns of every-day life. It even came up recently in the US Presidential campaign, when Republican hopeful Marco Rubio claimed America needs fewer philosophers and more welders. So what is the place of philosophy in today's universities? And what role can it play in wider culture? Few people in the UK have done more to help philosophers reach a wider audience than Bryan Magee, whose TV interviews with leading philosophers were prime-time viewing in the 1970s and '80s. As Magee publishes a new book, Ultimate Questions, Matthew and his guests discuss his legacy as a broadcaster who interpreted philosophy for a wider audience. With with philosophers MM McCabe, Lucy O'Brien, Nigel Warburton and Constantine Sandis.Ultimate Questions by Bryan Magee is out now from Princeton University Press.Producer: Luke Mulhall.
