About this listen
Kierkegaard no fue realmente filósofo en un sentido académico y, sin embargo, produjo lo que mucha gente espera de la filosofía. No escribió acerca del mundo, sino sobre la vida, sobre cómo la vivimos y cómo la elegimos. Su objeto de estudio es el individuo y la existencia del mismo: «el ser existente». Para Kierkegaard, esta entidad puramente subjetiva está más allá del alcance de la razón, la lógica, los sistemas filosóficos, la teología; más allá incluso de las «pretensiones de la psicología». Sin embargo, este ser es la fuente de todas estas materias. La rama de la filosofía a la que Kierkegaard hizo nacer acabaría siendo conocida como existencialismo.
En Kierkegaard en 90 minutos, Paul Strathern expone de manera clara y concisa la vida e ideas del influyente pensador danés. El libro incluye una selección de escritos de Kierkegaard, una breve lista de lecturas sugeridas para aquellos que deseen profundizar en su pensamiento y cronologías que sitúan a Kierkegaard en su época y en una sinopsis más amplia de la filosofía.
«90 minutos» es una colección compuesta por breves e iluminadoras introducciones a los más destacados filósofos, científicos y pensadores de todos los tiempos. De lectura amena y accesible, permiten a cualquier lector interesado adentrarse tanto en el pensamiento y los descubrimientos de cada figura analizada como en su influencia posterior en el curso de la historia.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Story
La filosofía de Berkeley niega la existencia de la materia. Según él, no existe el mundo material, solamente la experiencia, de modo que, cuando algo no se ve, es que no existe. Entonces, ¿cómo es que subsiste el mundo? Pues porque lo sustenta la percepción constante de un Dios que todo lo ve. Las ideas de Berkeley parecen llevar el empirismo hasta extremos absurdos, pero ¿acaso no tenemos nosotros que dejar el sentido común y lo obvio a un lado para ir más allá de la pura existencia cotidiana? Paul Strathern expone de manera clara y concisa la vida e ideas de George Berkeley.

Story
El desconstructivismo de Derrida es nada menos que un intento de destruir toda «escritura» demostrando su inevitable falsedad. El escritor escribe con una mano, pero ¿qué hace con la otra? Todo escrito, todo texto, insiste Derrida, contiene su propia agenda escondida, sus propias suposiciones metafísicas. El propio lenguaje del escritor distorsiona inevitablemente lo que piensa y escribe. Se socava así la «verdad» de todo conocimiento; llega el posestructuralismo.

Story
Schopenhauer, el «filósofo del pesimismo», ve el mundo y nuestra vida en él como un mal chiste. Pero si bien el mundo es indiferente a nuestro destino, no es su propósito fastidiarnos adrede. La fachada del mundo se apoya en lo que Schopenhauer llama la voluntad universal, ciega y sin propósito. La voluntad nos acarrea toda nuestra miseria y todo nuestro sufrimiento. la única esperanza es la de liberarnos de su poder y de los atavíos superficiales del individualismo y el egoísmo, que están a su merced.

Leibniz fue el primero de los grandes filósofos alemanes en producir un sistema filosófico omnicomprensivo. Llegó a la notable conclusión de que el tiempo y el espacio no existen, de que son suposiciones supersticiosas. Sólo las cosas existen, y sólo Dios es capaz de verlas como realmente son, desde un punto de vista sin perspectiva. Pero el número infinito de sustancias que componen el mundo no son materiales, son metafísicas, y, por lo tanto, no están sujetas a la ley de causa y efecto.

Story
En vida de JeanPaul Sartre, su filosofía fue bien conocida por estudiantes, intelectuales y revolucionarios, e incluso entre el gran público de todo el mundo. Esta popularidad, sin precedentes para un filósofo, fue debida en parte a sus propias ideas políticas revolucionarias, pero sobre todo se debió a su papel como portavoz del existencialismo en el momento justo en que este conjunto de ideas llenaba el vacío espiritual heredado de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y sus despojos.

Some people bounce back in response to setbacks; others break. We often think that these responses are hardwired, but fortunately this is not the case. Stoicism offers us an alternative approach. Plumbing the wisdom of one of the most popular and successful schools of thought from ancient Rome, philosopher William B. Irvine teaches us to turn any challenge on its head. The Stoic Challenge, then, is the ultimate guide to improving your quality of life through tactics developed by ancient Stoics, from Marcus Aurelius and Seneca to Epictetus.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.
