Mortimer J. Adler Reihenfolge der Bücher (Chronologisch)

Aristoteles (384–322 v. Chr.) lehrte Alexander den Großen die Logik und durch seine philosophischen Werke jeden Philosophen seither, von Mark Aurel über Thomas von Aquin bis zu Mortimer J. Adler. Jetzt lehrt Adler – einst Vorstandsvorsitzender der renommierten Encyclopedia Britannica – die Welt die aristotelische Logik, indem er Aristoteles’ Erkenntnisse in einer aktuellen, wunderbar verständlichen Weise präsentiert. Er bringt Aristoteles’ Werk auf eine alltägliche, für jeden verständliche Ebene – »to go«, wie auf einen schnellen Kaffee mit Aristoteles. Indem er die Leser ermutigt, selbst philosophisch zu denken, bietet Adler uns einen einzigartigen Weg zu persönlichen Einsichten und zum Verständnis der grandiosen aristotelischen Philosophie, wie der Unterschied zwischen Wünschen und Bedürfnissen, der richtige Weg zum Glück und der richtige Plan für ein gutes Leben.

Focusing on a democratic approach to education, the proposal advocates for a liberal education accessible to all children, countering outdated 19th-century practices. It emphasizes that every child is educable and that learning is a lifelong journey, facilitated by active engagement rather than traditional teacher-led instruction. The framework encourages diverse teaching methods and prioritizes enduring values over mere vocational training. Adler's vision aims to cultivate informed citizens, rejecting elitism in favor of inclusivity in educational opportunities.

Each summer, Mortimer J. Adler conducts a seminar at the Aspen Institute in Colorado. At the 1981 seminar, leaders from the worlds of business, literature, education, and the arts joined him in an in-depth consideration of the six great ideas that are the subject of this book: Truth, Goodness, and Beauty - the ideas we judge by; and Liberty, Equality and Justice - the ideas we act on. The group discussions and conversations between Dr. Adler and journalist Bill Moyers were filmed for broadcast on public television, and thousands of people followed their exploration of these important ideas. Discarding the out-worn and off-putting jargon of academia, Dr. Adler dispels the myth that philosophy is the exclusive province of the specialist. He argues that "philosophy is everybody's business," and that a better understanding of these fundamental concepts is essential if we are to cope with the political, moral, and social issues that confront us daily.

Mortimer J. Adler's Haves Without Have-Nots is a compilation of six essays revolving around a unifying theme: the convergence of capitalism and socialism in a politically and economically democratic world society, the likes of which has never been seen until now, as the 20th century draws to a close.
