  1. Thomas Aquinas, Multiple Thomisms, and Christian Philosophy - Feast Of St. Thomas Lecture (part 3)

    8H AGO

    Thomas Aquinas, Multiple Thomisms, and Christian Philosophy - Feast Of St. Thomas Lecture (part 3)

    This is part 3 of the recording of the invited inaugural Feast Day Of Saint Thomas lecture given at Mount Angel Abbey and Seminary. The full recording includes my lecture, Thomas Aquinas, Multiple Thomisms, and Christian Philosophy, a response by associate dean and professor Justin Shaun Coyle, and my answers to his and others' questions. Thomas Aquinas' works, thought, and approach have been viewed at times as an exemplar for Christian philosophy by many. His influence in Catholic circles in some times was massive and practically unavoidable, while in others Thomism was marginalized. In this talk, I focus on one period in which attentive engagement with Thomas Aquinas' thought, taking form as various and often rival Thomisms, was at a peak, an era centered by the 1930s Christian philosophy debates. I outline a narrative that starts with the Thomist revival in the late 19th century, discusses some key positions staked out during the modernist crisis and the 1930s debates, and takes us up to our own times. I bring the lecture to a close by providing a few suggestions for productively engaging, interpreting, and incorporating the insights and spirit of Saint Thomas.

    Jean-Paul Sartre, No Exit - Traps, Webs, and Proposed Solutions - Sadler's Stories

    This lecture discusses the French Existentialist philosopher, Jean-Paul Sartre's play, No Exit, and focuses on the various ways in which the three characters attempt to find some manner of making their situation, trapped with each other for eternity, livable for themselves. Inez Serrano speaks of the situation as one beset with traps, and Joseph Garcin uses the metaphor of webs, but they do consider possible solutions, only to find that none of them will work in the long run.

    Jean-Paul Sartre, No Exit - Estelle Rigaut, The Coquette - Sadler's Stories

    This lecture discusses the French Existentialist philosopher, Jean-Paul Sartre's play, No Exit, and focuses on the third of the main characters within the drama, Estelle Rigaut, who is a younger woman originally from the lower classes who married her way into upper class society, and who seems to be attracted to Garcin, when in reality she depends on men for maintaining her self-image. It turns out that she cheated on her husband, and killed the baby who resulted from that affair, which then led her lover to kill himself To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO You can find over 3500 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Purchase Jean-Paul Sartre's No Exit - https://amzn.to/3Lv5uU6

    Jean-Paul Sartre, No Exit - Inez Seranno, The Sadist - Sadler's Stories

    This lecture discusses the French Existentialist philosopher, Jean-Paul Sartre's play, No Exit, and focuses on one of the central characters trapped in the room with the other two, Inez Seranno, a postal clerk who describes herself as cruel, and who behaves sadistically towards the others. A lesbian, she pursued her cousin's wife and turned her against her husband, and she attempts to seduce Estelle. She also seems to have more insight into their situation and less illusions about how they can make it liveable for eternity To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO You can find over 3500 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Purchase Jean-Paul Sartre's No Exit - https://amzn.to/3Lv5uU6

    Jean-Paul Sartre, No Exit - Joseph Garcin, The Coward - Sadler's Stories

    This lecture discusses the French Existentialist philosopher, Jean-Paul Sartre's play, No Exit, and focuses on on one of the three main characters stuck together in the afterlife, Joseph Garcin, a newspaper man who claims that he was executed for desertion over his being a pacifist. He also cheated on his wife. As it turns out, he is actually at heart a coward. He also proposes solutions for the situation they find themselves in and says the famous line "hell is other people."

    Jean-Paul Sartre, No Exit - Themes, Characters, and Setting - Sadler's Stories

    This lecture discusses the French Existentialist philosopher, Jean-Paul Sartre's play, No Exit, and focuses on the setting of the work, which is a particular version of hell where some of the dead, specifically three people, Joseph Garcin, Inèz Serrano, and Estelle Rigault, are condemned to be for eternity. Each of the three portrays or betrays themselves as being a certain type of person, and they will attempt to find ways to exist within the space together, unsuccessfully, since in some sense, "hell is other people".
