Ce geste universellement compris — lever le majeur en repliant les autres doigts — est aujourd'hui un symbole grossier et insultant. Mais quelle est son origine ? À quand remonte-t-il vraiment ? Pour le savoir, il faut remonter… très loin.Les historiens s'accordent à dire que le doigt d'honneur est l'un des gestes obscènes les plus anciens de l'histoire. On en retrouve des traces dans l'Antiquité. Chez les Grecs déjà, au IVe siècle avant notre ère, le philosophe Diogène de Sinope l'utilisait pour se moquer ou provoquer ses interlocuteurs. Le geste, appelé katapygon, visait clairement à représenter un symbole phallique. Le majeur dressé était vu comme la représentation d'un sexe masculin tendu, les doigts repliés suggérant les testicules. Une manière directe et visuelle d'insulter.Les Romains ont hérité de cette coutume. Chez eux, le geste était connu sous le nom de digitus impudicus — littéralement, le "doigt sans pudeur". Il avait la même connotation sexuelle et servait à marquer le mépris ou à offenser quelqu'un. On le retrouve mentionné dans plusieurs textes latins, preuve de sa large diffusion.Et après l'Antiquité ? Le geste n'a jamais complètement disparu. Il a traversé les siècles, souvent associé aux classes populaires et aux comportements jugés vulgaires. Mais son retour en force dans la culture contemporaine est plus récent.Contrairement à une légende tenace, le doigt d'honneur ne vient pas des archers anglais de la guerre de Cent Ans. Cette histoire raconte que les archers anglais faisaient le geste pour narguer les Français, qui leur coupaient l'index et le majeur s'ils étaient capturés. Mais cette anecdote est largement apocryphe : aucun document médiéval sérieux ne la confirme.Le doigt d'honneur tel qu'on le connaît aujourd'hui s'est surtout popularisé au XXe siècle, avec l'émergence de la culture de masse. Dès les années 1920-30, on retrouve des clichés de boxeurs ou de gangsters américains utilisant le geste. Puis, avec le rock'n'roll, le cinéma et la télévision, il devient un signe de rébellion et de provocation universellement compris.En résumé : le doigt d'honneur est un geste vieux de plus de deux millénaires. Né dans la Grèce antique, codifié chez les Romains, il a survécu à travers les âges pour devenir ce symbole de défiance que l'on retrouve aujourd'hui sur tous les continents. Un simple doigt levé… mais chargé de 2 400 ans d'histoire. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

La théorie selon laquelle Jésus aurait été un philosophe grec repose sur plusieurs hypothèses et interprétations, bien que cette idée soit loin d'être consensuelle dans les milieux académiques. Elle repose sur l'idée que son enseignement aurait été influencé par la philosophie grecque, voire qu'il aurait été formé dans une tradition philosophique proche du cynisme ou du stoïcisme. Voyons les principaux arguments avancés par cette théorie.1. Jésus et la philosophie grecque : quels parallèles ?Certains chercheurs ont noté des similitudes entre les enseignements de Jésus et certaines écoles de pensée grecques, notamment :- Le cynisme : Cette école, fondée par Antisthène (disciple de Socrate), prônait une vie simple, le rejet des richesses et des conventions sociales. Les cyniques, comme Diogène de Sinope, vivaient dans la pauvreté, méprisaient les institutions et prônaient une vie en accord avec la nature et la vérité. On retrouve des échos de cette pensée dans les paroles de Jésus, qui encourage ses disciples à abandonner leurs biens matériels et à suivre un mode de vie détaché de l'opulence (cf. Matthieu 6:19-21).- Le stoïcisme : Fondé par Zénon de Citium, ce courant philosophique enseignait le contrôle des émotions, la maîtrise de soi et l'acceptation du destin avec sérénité. L'idée de pardonner ses ennemis et de rester impassible face aux épreuves, très présente dans le message de Jésus, rappelle des principes stoïciens.- L'analogie avec Socrate : Comme Jésus, Socrate enseignait de manière orale, se méfiait des institutions religieuses et politiques et acceptait la mort avec calme. Tous deux ont été accusés de corrompre la jeunesse et d'aller à l'encontre des croyances dominantes.2. Jésus a-t-il été exposé à la pensée grecque ?Historiquement, il existe plusieurs raisons de penser que Jésus aurait pu être influencé, directement ou indirectement, par la culture grecque :- La Galilée, une région hellénisée : À l'époque de Jésus, la Palestine faisait partie de l'Empire romain, mais était encore fortement marquée par l'hellénisation, initiée par Alexandre le Grand au IVe siècle av. J.-C. Des villes comme Sepphoris, non loin de Nazareth, étaient des centres de culture grecque où les idées philosophiques circulaient.- Le contact avec des Grecs : Dans les Évangiles, on évoque des Grecs cherchant à rencontrer Jésus (Jean 12:20-21), et certaines paraboles (comme celle du bon Samaritain) suggèrent une ouverture vers un auditoire plus large que la seule communauté juive.- L'emploi du grec : Bien que Jésus ait principalement parlé l'araméen, le grec était la langue véhiculaire de l'époque en Méditerranée orientale. Certains chercheurs pensent qu'il aurait pu comprendre le grec et avoir accès aux idées philosophiques grecques3. Une thèse controverséeSi ces parallèles sont intéressants, la majorité des historiens et des théologiens réfutent l'idée que Jésus était un philosophe grec :- Un prophète juif avant tout : Jésus s'inscrit dans la tradition des prophètes juifs, citant les Écritures hébraïques et se positionnant dans un cadre religieux spécifique. Son enseignement repose sur des concepts comme le Royaume de Dieu, qui n'a pas d'équivalent direct dans la philosophie grecque.- Différence de méthode : Contrairement aux philosophes grecs, qui développaient des systèmes de pensée argumentés, Jésus enseignait principalement par des paraboles et des actes symboliques.- Un message eschatologique : Là où la philosophie grecque cherchait souvent la sagesse et la vertu dans cette vie, Jésus annonce un bouleversement imminent du monde et l'instauration du règne divin.

Célèbre aboyeur de l'Antiquité, le sulfureux philosophe grec Diogène a traversé le temps grâce à ses coups d'éclats spectaculaires : une vie de marginal passée à dormir dans un tonneau, à défier les puissants et à se moquer des conventions sociales. Mais derrière le masque cynique de l'enfant de Sinope se cache une sagesse qui interpelle chacun de nous avec une simple question : es-tu vraiment celui que tu crois ?******Saviez vous que Nouvelle Acropole est réalisée à 100% par des bénévoles ?

He was the brother of the Apostle Peter, from Bethsaida on the shore of Lake Gennesaret. Andrew left his fisherman's trade to become a disciple of St John the Baptist. Soon after the Forerunner had baptized Jesus, he said to Andrew and his other disciple John the Theologian, "Behold the Lamb of God!" At this, both disciples followed after Jesus. After conversing with Christ, Andrew hurried home and told his brother Simon Peter, "We have found the Messiah." For being the first to recognize Jesus as the Christ, St Andrew is called the First-Called.   After Pentecost, Andrew was appointed to preach the Gospel around the Black Sea and in Thrace and Macedonia, traveling as far as Lazica in the Caucasus. According to Slavic tradition his travels took him even further, into the land that was later to be called Russia.   In later travels the Apostle preached throughout Asia Minor with St John the Theologian, then traveled to Mesopotamia, then back to Sinope on the Black Sea, and finally to Patras in the Peloponnese, where he soon established a large community of Christians. One of his converts was Maximilla, the wife of Aegeates, the Proconsul of that region. Aegeates was so angered by his wife's conversion that he had the Apostle arrested and crucified head downwards on a cross in the shape of an "X." The holy Apostle rejoiced to be allowed to suffer the same death as his Master.   The holy relics of St Andrew, after various travels, were returned to Patras in 1964, where they are now venerated.   In the West, St Andrew is venerated as the patron of Scotland: in the Middle Ages, more than eight hundred churches in Scotland were dedicated to him.

She was a maiden of fifteen who lived with her parents in the Christian enclave of Sinope in Pontus during the 1700s. One day, as she went to the marketplace, she passed by the house of the local Pasha (governor), who, seeing her beauty, was seized by lust for her. He ordered his servants to bring her to him, and made two attempts to defile her; each time, however, he was prevented by a mysterious power that kept him from her like an invisible wall. Determined to have his way for her, he kept her prisoner in his house; but she was able to slip away and run home to her parents' house.   Enraged that his prey had escaped, the Pasha called together the leaders of the Christian community and promised that, unless Helen were handed over to him, all the Christians in the town would be massacred. Grief-stricken and fearful, the leaders persuaded Helen's father to return the girl to the palace. The vile Pasha made several more attempts to rape the Saint, but once again he was restrained as if by an invisible wall as she recited the Six Psalms and all the prayers that she knew by heart. Realizing that he was powerless against her, the Pasha had her thrown in the common jail, then ordered that she be tortured to death. The executioners subjected the maiden to several cruel torments before killing her by driving two nails into her skull and beheading her. They then put her body in a sack and threw it in the Black Sea.   Some Greek sailors followed a heavenly light to the place where the sack had sunk, and divers retrieved the Saint's relics, which immediately revealed themselves as a source of healing for many. Her body was taken to Russia; her head was placed in the church in Sinope, where it continued to work miracles, especially for those who suffered from headaches. When the Greeks were driven from Sinope in 1924, refugees took the head with them. It is venerated today in a church near Thessalonika.

Diógenes de Sinope, fue el primer cínico, aunque el fundador de la escuela cínica fue su maestro, el filósofo ateniense Antístenes, discípulo de Sócrates. Pero fue Diógenes el que se ganó el apodo, utilizado como insulto, pero que él recibía como halago.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Neste podcast: Clóvis de Barros fala sobre convenções sociais a partir da história de Diógenes de Sinope.

Transcripción: En este episodio: • Hablaré del síndrome de Diógenes, un problema social. • En la segunda parte, conocerás a Don Armando, una persona que tenía un pequeño secreto en su casa. ¡Hola! Soy Óscar. Gracias por acompañarme en un nuevo episodio del pódcast de unlimitedspanish.com. Si necesitas el texto del episodio, lo puedes encontrar en unlimitedspanish.com/podcast. Es una buena práctica escuchar y leer al mismo tiempo. No solamente te aseguras de entender todo lo que escuchas, sino que aprender a saber cómo se escribe cada palabra. Vale, empecemos con el tema de hoy. No hace mucho se murió una mujer mayor en la calle donde vivo. Era una mujer encantadora que debía de tener unos 80 años o más. Sus hijos vinieron a vaciar la casa de sus cosas para poderla vender. Resulta que la pobre mujer había acumulado una cantidad impresionante de objetos. Parece ser que ella tenía la tendencia de acumular cosas. Hoy hablaré del síndrome de Diógenes, una condición que quizás no sea muy conocida, pero que tiene un gran efecto en la sociedad. Este síndrome se caracteriza principalmente por la acumulación excesiva de objetos y basura en el hogar. A veces, lo puedes ver en las noticias. Tal vez conozcas a alguien en tu vecindario que guarda una cantidad sorprendente de objetos en su casa. De hecho, no significa nada que tengas cierta tendencia a acumular cosas. Muchas personas son así. Incluso yo tengo que acordarme a veces de deshacerme de cosas que ya no uso, porque se acumulan en casa. No obstante, no hablo de esto. Me refiero a la acumulación extrema, un comportamiento patológico que lleva a las personas a vivir rodeadas de montañas, de objetos y basura. Es irónico que el nombre de este síndrome provenga de Diógenes de Sinope, un filósofo griego que defendía vivir con muy pocas cosas. En contraste absoluto, quienes sufren de este síndrome acumulan indiscriminadamente objetos, aferrándose a la creencia de que serán útiles. Aunque no se cataloga estrictamente como una enfermedad mental, este trastorno de la conducta a menudo coexiste con otros problemas de salud mental y tiende a afectar con mayor frecuencia a las personas de avanzada edad. Esto último se atribuye a veces a experiencias difíciles en el pasado, como haber vivido una guerra, donde la mentalidad de guardar todo lo posible era esencial para la supervivencia. En España, los servicios sociales han encontrado casos alarmantes de personas mayores con síndrome de Diógenes. Por desgracia, se observa que el número de estos casos va en aumento. Cuando se identifica una situación así, los servicios sociales intervienen ofreciendo limpieza, atención médica y apoyo psicológico. Sin embargo, no siempre se recibe bien esta ayuda, y los profesionales deben respetar la autonomía del individuo que decide vivir de cierta manera. Dado que la sociedad está envejeciendo, es probable que veamos un incremento de este síndrome. Esperemos que los gobernantes tengan en cuenta esto y implementen las medidas necesarias. Tengo curiosidad. ¿Sucede lo mismo en tu país? ¿Crees que es un fenómeno que solo pasa en ciudades, o también en pequeños pueblos? Puedes escribir en la sección de comentarios o enviarme un mensaje.

The ancient philosopher Diogenes--nicknamed "The Dog" and decried by Plato as a "Socrates gone mad"--was widely praised and idealized as much as he was mocked and vilified. A favorite subject of sculptors and painters since the Renaissance, his notoriety is equally due to his infamously eccentric behavior, scorn of conventions, and biting aphorisms, and to the role he played in the creation of the Cynic school, which flourished from the 4th century B.C. to the Christian era. In The Dangerous Life and Ideas of Diogenes the Cynic (Oxford UP, 2023), Jean-Manuel Roubineau paints a new portrait of an atypical philosopher whose life left an indelible mark on the Western collective imagination and whose philosophy courses through various schools of thought well beyond antiquity. Roubineau sifts through the many legends and apocryphal stories that surround the life of Diogenes. Was he, the son of a banker, a counterfeiter in his hometown of Sinope? Did he really meet Alexander the Great? Was he truly an apologist for incest, patricide, and anthropophagy? And how did he actually die? To answer these questions, Roubineau retraces the known facts of Diogenes' existence. Beyond the rehashed clichés, this book inspires us to rediscover Diogenes' philosophical legacy--whether it be the challenge to the established order, the detachment from materialism, the choice of a return to nature, or the formulation of a cosmopolitan ideal strongly rooted in the belief that virtue is better revealed in action than in theory. Jean-Manuel Roubineau is a specialist in ancient history. He previously published Milon de Crotone ou l'Invention du Sport and Les cités grecques, winner of the European History Book Prize in 2016. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

Hi! I'm Georgiana, and I'm back with a new episode. I'm here to help you speak English fluently. And what do you need to speak fluently? You need to LISTEN, LISTEN, LISTEN, and LISTEN. :) If you want to help me, SHARE the podcast with your friends and family. That would mean a lot. Thanks. On my website you can get the 5 Secrets to speak English and also my premium courses. Before we start, get the transcript at SpeakEnglishPodcast.com/podcast It's completely free! Ok, let's start! Today, I want to talk about something called Diogenes syndrome. It might not be something you're familiar with, but it's a big deal in society. This syndrome is about people accumulating too much stuff in their homes. My friend shared a story with me last week about her dear 80-year-old neighbor who recently passed away. Her children came to clear out the house so they could sell it. It turns out that the poor woman had collected a lot of stuff over the years—furniture, boxes, and more. It seems like she had a habit of collecting things. You might have seen cases like this in the news, or maybe you know someone who just can't seem to throw things away. It's like they have a habit of hoarding stuff. Many people can relate to this—I sometimes have to remind myself to get rid of things I don't need anymore because they start piling up at home. But what I'm talking about here is more extreme. It's a condition where people hoard so much stuff that their homes become overwhelmed with clutter. Ironically, it's named after Diogenes of Sinope, an ancient Greek philosopher who believed in living with very little. People with this syndrome, however, collect things indiscriminately, thinking they might need them one day. While it's not officially classified as a mental illness, it often goes hand in hand with other mental health issues, and it tends to affect older people more. Some experts think it might stem from difficult experiences in the past, like living through a war, where holding onto things was a matter of survival. In the US, when someone has Diogenes syndrome, people try to help them in different ways. Here's what they do: Doctors or nurses might visit their homes to see if they are physically and mentally okay. Mental health experts can talk to them and try to help them feel better. Support from Social Workers: These are people who help others with their problems. They can arrange for someone to clean their house, talk to them about keeping it tidy, and connect them with other helpful services like food or counseling. Keeping in Touch: It's essential to check on them to ensure they get the help they need. Sometimes, the Law Gets Involved: If the person is in danger or putting others in danger, some legal steps might need to be taken to make sure they get the proper care. The goal is always to make sure the person is safe and healthy. It's also essential for more people to learn about Diogenes syndrome so that those who need help can get it sooner. Sometimes, people don't want help, and professionals must respect their choice to live as they please. Research shows that the causes of Diogenes syndrome are complicated—it could be genetic, psychological, or tied to traumatic events. As society ages, we might see more of this syndrome cropping up. It's something policymakers need to think about and take action on. Is it the same where you live? If you have any insights, feel free to share.

Don't let looks deceive you, though: This example actually comes from the Greek word koimame (κοιμάμαι — “to sleep”), which is also the root of another word, koimitirion (κοιμητήριο — “dormitory”). Is it creepy, then, that we call our final places of rest “dormitories for the dead”? Perhaps. cynicism The word "cynicism" comes from the Greek word "kynikos," which means "dog-like." This is because the Cynics, a school of ancient Greek philosophy, were known for their simple, ascetic lifestyle and their outspoken criticism of social conventions. They were often compared to dogs, who were seen as independent and untamed creatures. The Cynics were founded by Antisthenes, a student of Socrates. Antisthenes believed that the only true good was virtue, and that everything else was a distraction. He argued that people should live in accordance with nature, which meant rejecting material possessions, social status, and even family ties. The most famous Cynic was Diogenes of Sinope. Diogenes lived in a barrel and begged for food. He was known for his sharp wit and his willingness to challenge conventional wisdom. He once famously told Alexander the Great to "get out of my sun," when the king came to visit him. The Cynics were a minority movement, but they had a significant influence on later philosophers, such as the Stoics and the Epicureans. Their ideas about virtue, simplicity, and independence continue to be relevant today. democracy Ahh, good old democracy. Combining demos (δήμος — “people”) and kratos (κράτος — “power”), the meaning of this quintessential Greek word used in English is simply put: power to the people!

One of his converts was Maximilla, the wife of Aegeates, the Proconsul of that region. Aegeates was so angered by his wife's conversion that he had the Apostle arrested and crucified head downwards on a cross in the shape of an "X."

Cub Kuker Supernatural Podcast EP345 The canonization of the Bible refers to the process by which certain texts are officially recognized and accepted as authoritative scripture. This process was complex and varied across different religious traditions, with the Catholic Church and the development of the King James Version (KJV) representing significant milestones in biblical canonical history. However, this process has provided possible data-loss as well as potential manipulation opportunities throughout the canonization process. In the context of the unique message of Jesus, there is an increasing recognition that his teachings, often presented in the "red letters" in some editions of the Bible, are extremely different and distinct from certain aspects of the Old Testament and even some teachings in the New Testament. Jesus' message often emphasized love, forgiveness, and a spiritual authority as ONE with God, which some believe appears in stark contrast to the elements found in the Old Testament and largely within the New Testament. The idea that Jesus' teaching stands alone, particularly in the red letters, is a perspective held by some who emphasize the distinctive nature of Christ's message, including Marcion of Sinope. Marcion proposed the idea that Jesus brought a new spiritual practice and a transformative understanding of God as the SOURCE, rather than a deity as observed by the status quo of his day. The notion of two different kingdoms—one of extraterrestrial origins and another of metaphysical light—is not a mainstream or widely accepted understanding; however, we will discuss this theory in detail today. It's important to note that interpretations of biblical texts can vary widely, and different individuals or traditions may have diverse perspectives on the meaning and significance of certain passages.

Cub Kuker Supernatural™ Podcast EP336 In this episode, I delve into the intriguing story of Marcion of Sinope, a significant figure in early Christianity with beliefs that sent shockwaves through the emerging early Christian community. Join me as we explore the life, beliefs, and impact of this enigmatic character. Marcion's beliefs were groundbreaking and highly controversial. He proposed a dualistic worldview, where he distinguished between two gods—an unknown God of love and mercy in the New Testament, and a “little-g” god of justice and judgment in the Old Testament. According to Marcion, the Old Testament was the work of a completely different deity.  Marcion's reasoning can still be clearly seen within our modern Bibles today by using a Strongs Greek/Hebrew concordance if you're willing to suspend disbelief and dig deeper into the roots of the original words. Marcion's rejection of the Old Testament and his selection of a unique Christian canon, featured only a subset of Paul's letters and a modified version of the Gospel of Luke, this led to a major schism in early Christianity. Major conflicts and debates that erupted within the Christian community as a result of his teachings. The impact of Marcionism on the development of Christian theology is polarizing even today, including his (often heretically viewed) formation of a New Testament canon. His controversial ideas prompted early Christian theologians to define the boundaries of orthodox doctrine and decide which texts were authoritative. Join me on this journey through the life and beliefs of Marcion of Sinope, a figure whose legacy, though ultimately marginalized in Christian history, left a lasting mark on the early Christian world and the shaping of the New Testament as we know it today.  Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share this video with fellow truth-seeking enthusiasts! *As always do your own research to formulate your own opinions that are based on authentic data from reputable sources. × I Create Vids About Supernatural Realms.

She was a maiden of fifteen who lived with her parents in the Christian enclave of Sinope in Pontus during the 1700s. One day, as she went to the marketplace, she passed by the house of the local Pasha (governor), who, seeing her beauty, was seized by lust for her. He ordered his servants to bring her to him, and made two attempts to defile her; each time, however, he was prevented by a mysterious power that kept him from her like an invisible wall. Determined to have his way for her, he kept her prisoner in his house; but she was able to slip away and run home to her parents' house.   Enraged that his prey had escaped, the Pasha called together the leaders of the Christian community and promised that, unless Helen were handed over to him, all the Christians in the town would be massacred. Grief-stricken and fearful, the leaders persuaded Helen's father to return the girl to the palace. The vile Pasha made several more attempts to rape the Saint, but once again he was restrained as if by an invisible wall as she recited the Six Psalms and all the prayers that she knew by heart. Realizing that he was powerless against her, the Pasha had her thrown in the common jail, then ordered that she be tortured to death. The executioners subjected the maiden to several cruel torments before killing her by driving two nails into her skull and beheading her. They then put her body in a sack and threw it in the Black Sea.   Some Greek sailors followed a heavenly light to the place where the sack had sunk, and divers retrieved the Saint's relics, which immediately revealed themselves as a source of healing for many. Her body was taken to Russia; her head was placed in the church in Sinope, where it continued to work miracles, especially for those who suffered from headaches. When the Greeks were driven from Sinope in 1924, refugees took the head with them. It is venerated today in a church near Thessalonika.

Er gilt als eine der schillerndsten Persönlichkeiten der Philosophiegeschichten, Platon hat ihn einen „verrückt gewordenen Sokrates genannt“ und nicht wenigen sehen in ihm den Ahnherrn der Hippies: Diogenes von Sinope. Als praktischer Philosoph suchte er nach den Wegen zu einem guten, lebenswerten Leben und war überzeugt, dafür müsse er sich von allen Einschränkungen der Gesellschaft befreien, ebenso von der inneren Unzufriedenheit, die verursacht wird vom Begehren, von Gefühlen und von Angst. Albert und Jan besprechen im neuen Pudelkern-Pod die wichtigsten Zitate, Anekdoten Erkenntnisse des „Philosophen aus der Tonne“. Autarkie, verstanden als Selbstgenügsamkeit war sein höchstes Gut. Dieses Ziel und das Glück können nach fester Überzeugung von Diogenes nur durch eine völlige Unabhängigkeit von äußeren Gütern erreicht werden. Denn richtig glücklich kann nur der sein, der sich von überflüssigen Bedürfnissen, äußeren Zwängen und Konventionen freimacht sowie im Rhythmus der Natur lebt. Durch seinen provozierenden Lebenswandel als Straßenphilosoph und seine subversiven Äußerungen („Geh mir aus der Sonne!“) stellte er das Leben und Verhalten seiner Mitbürger bloß, um sie so von seinen kynischen Lehren zu überzeugen.

Friday of the 24th Week in Ordinary Time Saint of the Day: St. Phocas the Gardener; lived in the Third and Fourth Centuries in Sinope, earning his living cultivating a garden; he shared with the poor, and provided lodging to travelers; when his identity as a Christian became known to the pagan Roman authorities, soldiers were dispatched to arrest Phocas; they stopped at his home for lodging, unaware of who he was; Phocas revealed himself the next morning, and the soldiers--though reluctant to carry out their orders--ultimately beheaded him, around 303 A.D.

En 1975, le médecin américain Clark, qualifie le syndrome de Diogène chez la personne âgée, du trouble de comportement associant une négligence extrême de l'hygiène corporelle et domestique ainsi qu'une syllogomanie, cette accumulation d'objets hétéroclites, qui peuvent conduire à des conditions de vie insalubres. Le Diogène auquel Clark fait référence est Diogène de Sinope, un philosophe grec du 5e et 4e siècle avant J.C. Diogène était le fils d'un riche banquier, avec une petite enfance probablement heureuse, mais la découverte que son père falsifiait de la monnaie, a entraîné sa fuite de la famille et sa capture par des pirates. Diogène mène alors une vie d'esclave. Il travaille pour acheter sa liberté et devient l'un des élèves d'Antisthène, le fondateur de la philosophie cynique. Les adeptes de cette école ne se contentent pas de dire leur désintérêt pour la propriété et l'absence de tout besoin matériel. Ils vivent dans la pauvreté ! Mais, alors quel est le rapport entre Diogène et le syndrome de Diogène ? Qui est concerné par ce trouble du comportement ? Comment les aider ? Quelles prises en charge ? Ecoutez la suite dans cet épisode de "Maintenant vous savez". Un podcast Bababam Originals, écrit et réalisé par Zineb Soulaimani.

They say that good things take time - and great things take even longer. And such has been the case with the canonization of one of the most important and transformative figures in Pre-Nicene Christian history. Within theological circles, he's known as the real-life Indiana Jones and after almost 2,000 years he's now known as a saint. In today's episode we explore the life of Marcion of Sinope (85-160 A.D.).

Diógenes de Sinope era um excêntrico que desafiava todas as convenções da época — e várias das atuais — com palavras e ações que renderam várias anedotas antológicas

An engaging look at the founder of one of the most important philosophical schools of ancient Greece.The ancient philosopher Diogenes--nicknamed "The Dog" and decried by Plato as a "Socrates gone mad"--was widely praised and idealized as much as he was mocked and vilified. A favorite subject of sculptors and painters since the Renaissance, his notoriety is equally due to his infamously eccentric behavior, scorn of conventions, and biting aphorisms, and to the role he played in the creation of the Cynic school, which flourished from the 4th century B.C. to the Christian era. In this book, Jean-Manuel Roubineau paints a new portrait of an atypical philosopher whose life left an indelible mark on the Western collective imagination and whose philosophy courses through various schools of thought well beyond antiquity.Roubineau sifts through the many legends and apocryphal stories that surround the life of Diogenes. Was he, the son of a banker, a counterfeiter in his hometown of Sinope? Did he really meet Alexander the Great? Was he truly an apologist for incest, patricide, and anthropophagy? And how did he actually die? To answer these questions, Roubineau retraces the known facts of Diogenes' existence.Beyond the rehashed clich's, this book inspires us to rediscover Diogenes' philosophical legacy--whether it be the challenge to the established order, the detachment from materialism, the choice of a return to nature, or the formulation of a cosmopolitan ideal strongly rooted in the belief that virtue is better revealed in action than in theory.Buy the book from Wellington Square Bookshop - ​https://wellingtonsquarebooks.indiecommerce.com/book/9780197666357

This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient letter collection called the Cynic Epistles. This one looks at those letters (most likely falsely) attributed to Crates, the third scholarch of the Cynic school. Specifically it focuses on the Cynic conception of philosophy, and the trope that Cynic philosophy is the short road to happiness. Crates, the third scholarch of the Cynic school, was a member of a developing tradition that was viewed as started by Antisthenes and refined or perfected by Diogenes of Sinope.

This is part 8 of the Early Church History class. Origen of Alexandria is the man behind the curtain. Although few Christians today would recognize his name, most denominations are still on a trajectory he initiated eighteen hundred years ago. His influences in theology, christology, eschatology, apologetics, textual criticism, asceticism, hermeneutics, and Christian philosophy are astonishing. Understanding Origen's life and ideas is a major key to comprehending the history of ideas within Christianity's most creative and speculative period. With the knowledge you've gained from our previous two episodes, you'll be able to see how Origen drew on Philo and Clement and also moved beyond them to synthesize a doctrinal package in response to pressures and criticisms from the Gnostics, Valentinians, pagans, philosophers, and Jews.

Review Origen was the most important Christian thinker between Paul and Augustine. He was an ascetic who trained himself to avoid pleasure. He strongly believed that God inspired Scripture. His hermeneutic (interpretation method) was to peer beneath the body of Scripture to its soul, and occasionally even its spirit through the use of allegory. He strongly opposed belief in a physical hope, preferring heaven to paradise on earth and a spiritual body to a physical resurrection. He believed elite Christians should ponder deeper esoteric truths that weren't safe for the simple-minded. He interpreted Scripture through the lens of Neo-Platonism, always looking for a lesson on the soul's ascent to the higher, spiritual plane. He believed the supreme Father eternally begot the subordinate Son/Logos as rays are eternally generated from the sun. A tireless defender of the faith he knew, Origen regularly risked his life as a young man and in the end suffered physical torture for his faith, eventually resulting in his death.

Today's counter-culture and alternative movements question mainstream norms, such as putting too much value on material possessions. The Cynics, practical philosophers of ancient Greece and Rome, also rejected conventional desires to seek wealth, power and fame. They were not your usual kind of philosophers: rather than lecturing or writing about their ideas, they acted out their beliefs by denying themselves worldly possessions and tried to live as simply as possible. Their leader, Diogenes of Sinope, allegedly slept in a ceramic jar on the streets of Athens and ate raw meat like a dog, flouting convention to draw attention to his ideas. So who were the Cynics? How influential was their movement? What made it last some 900 years? And why does the term 'cynicism' have a different meaning today? Bridget Kendall is joined by three eminent scholars of Greek philosophy: Dr. William Desmond, Senior Lecturer in Ancient Classics at Maynooth University in Ireland and author of several books on the Cynics; Dr. Elena Cagnoli Fiecconi, Lecturer in Ancient Philosophy at University College London; and Mark Usher, Professor of Classical Languages and Literature at the University of Vermont and author of new Cynic translations into English.

He was the brother of the Apostle Peter, from Bethsaida on the shore of Lake Gennesaret. Andrew left his fisherman's trade to become a disciple of St John the Baptist. Soon after the Forerunner had baptized Jesus, he said to Andrew and his other disciple John the Theologian, "Behold the Lamb of God!" At this, both disciples followed after Jesus. After conversing with Christ, Andrew hurried home and told his brother Simon Peter, "We have found the Messiah." For being the first to recognize Jesus as the Christ, St Andrew is called the First-Called.   After Pentecost, Andrew was appointed to preach the Gospel around the Black Sea and in Thrace and Macedonia, traveling as far as Lazica in the Caucasus. According to Slavic tradition his travels took him even further, into the land that was later to be called Russia.   In later travels the Apostle preached throughout Asia Minor with St John the Theologian, then traveled to Mesopotamia, then back to Sinope on the Black Sea, and finally to Patras in the Peloponnese, where he soon established a large community of Christians. One of his converts was Maximilla, the wife of Aegeates, the Proconsul of that region. Aegeates was so angered by his wife's conversion that he had the Apostle arrested and crucified head downwards on a cross in the shape of an "X." The holy Apostle rejoiced to be allowed to suffer the same death as his Master.   The holy relics of St Andrew, after various travels, were returned to Patras in 1964, where they are now venerated.   In the West, St Andrew is venerated as the patron of Scotland: in the Middle Ages, more than eight hundred churches in Scotland were dedicated to him.

He was the brother of the Apostle Peter, from Bethsaida on the shore of Lake Gennesaret. Andrew left his fisherman's trade to become a disciple of St John the Baptist. Soon after the Forerunner had baptized Jesus, he said to Andrew and his other disciple John the Theologian, "Behold the Lamb of God!" At this, both disciples followed after Jesus.

She was a maiden of fifteen who lived with her parents in the Christian enclave of Sinope in Pontus during the 1700s. One day, as she went to the marketplace, she passed by the house of the local Pasha (governor), who, seeing her beauty, was seized by lust for her. He ordered his servants to bring her to him, and made two attempts to defile her; each time, however, he was prevented by a mysterious power that kept him from her like an invisible wall. Determined to have his way for her, he kept her prisoner in his house; but she was able to slip away and run home to her parents' house.   Enraged that his prey had escaped, the Pasha called together the leaders of the Christian community and promised that, unless Helen were handed over to him, all the Christians in the town would be massacred. Grief-stricken and fearful, the leaders persuaded Helen's father to return the girl to the palace. The vile Pasha made several more attempts to rape the Saint, but once again he was restrained as if by an invisible wall as she recited the Six Psalms and all the prayers that she knew by heart. Realizing that he was powerless against her, the Pasha had her thrown in the common jail, then ordered that she be tortured to death. The executioners subjected the maiden to several cruel torments before killing her by driving two nails into her skull and beheading her. They then put her body in a sack and threw it in the Black Sea.   Some Greek sailors followed a heavenly light to the place where the sack had sunk, and divers retrieved the Saint's relics, which immediately revealed themselves as a source of healing for many. Her body was taken to Russia; her head was placed in the church in Sinope, where it continued to work miracles, especially for those who suffered from headaches. When the Greeks were driven from Sinope in 1924, refugees took the head with them. It is venerated today in a church near Thessalonika.

The rest of the show covers the second half of the second century. In this period, the little Jesus clubs evolved into the imperial church incorporate. This and the next few episodes cover the three dominant personalities of that period. In this episode I investigate the ‘heretic' Marcion of Sinope. Marcion shook the church to its foundations when he moved to Rome. He rejected the idea that Christianity was based on Judaism and the Old testament. He constructed the first Christian canon: ten letters of Paul, and a reduced version of the gospel of Luke. Decisively expelled by the imperial church incorporate, Marcion returned to Asia Minor and founded a successful rival to the church, one that persisted for centuries. Marcion forced the church to build its own canon, and to raise Paul from obscure letter-writer and martyr, to pre-eminent apostle. 

The night sky is filled with beautiful objects with beautiful names — names from ancient Arabic, Greek, and Latin. But the most prominent object in the night sky doesn't have one of those names. It's the Moon — a name that means — well, the Moon. The name is a little more lyrical in other languages — Luna in Spanish, Lune in French — but they all mean the same thing. There's no real story behind any of them. That's not the case for the moons that orbit the brilliant planet Jupiter, which is to the left of the Moon early this evening. Jupiter's first four moons were discovered in 1610. Since they attended Jupiter — the king of the Roman gods — eventually they were given names associated with Jupiter. Callisto, Europa, and Ganymede were all seduced by Jupiter, while Io was driven mad by his jealous wife. The next Jovian moon wasn't discovered until almost three centuries later, but astronomers stuck with the naming theme. They chose Amalthea, after a nymph who had nursed the young Jupiter. Later discoveries also kept the theme, but widened it a bit — they included characters related to Zeus, the Greek god whom the Romans adopted as Jupiter. So that gave us names like Sinope and Lysithea. That tradition continues today, although it takes a little more work. Even though Jupiter and Zeus were grand characters with rich histories, even they eventually ran out of nursemaids and partners.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory
