When I decided to write my own book, I found a suitable topic relatively quickly: love. What also became clear very quickly was the way I wanted to portray it, in a very everyday way. It shouldn't be too romantic but not too dry either. For this reason, I decided...
I recently had the pleasure of attending a lecture by Dr. Kai Rugenstein. A not insignificant part of the lecture dealt with the development of the subconscious according to Laplanche. Dr. Rugenstein impressed me not only with his incredible specialist knowledge, but also with his eloquence and humor - after all, it is not easy to explain such a complex topic with such...
At a time when self-optimization is preached and praised everywhere, I would like to share a little thought of my own. I am well aware that most of us have some character traits that are not worth keeping. However, the problem in my opinion is that we don't stop when we are at a good point...
We as individuals are not in a position to change the objective world, i.e. the world as it is. What we can change, however, is the subjective world, i.e. the world as we see it. This may sound like a sad compromise, but it is a much more powerful gift than we might think. Because...
Alfred Lansing's book Endurance Shackleton's Incredible Voyage [635 Days in the Ice: Shackleton's Expedition] is by far one of the best books I have read in recent years. Not only the subject matter but also the way it is written is incredibly authentic. In order to roughly summarize the story but not to anticipate too much, I will not go into details....
Precisely because Hegel is known for his moving world view, it is not exactly surprising that he also thought about eternity. In common parlance, eternity is an ultimate state. The eternal progression of time and the resulting never-ending, eternally continuing existence. But it is even less surprising that...
As we know so far, Hegel was particularly known for his non-static philosophy. In his eyes, the world was always changing and no event could be considered without another. Everything in Hegel's world is related to the other. Just as his being and his nothingness are empty in themselves and...
Hegel was of the opinion that being and nothingness are two sides of the same thing. They create each other, so to speak, because without being, nothingness cannot exist and vice versa. In this way, nothing and being generate becoming between them. Roughly speaking, becoming is the process that creates the entire...
As we have already learned in other articles, Baruch de Spinoza was a rationalist. It is therefore all the less surprising that he approaches the world in a very modest and frugal style. In a very beautiful quote, he explains why we cannot succeed in some things. "As long as a person imagines that he cannot do something...
After I finished my article yesterday, Why hip-hop is so successful: people's love of fiction, I had a few more thoughts on a very similar topic. Said thoughts revolved around the topic of cosmetic surgery. After some quick research, I found almost shocking figures, as there were around 15% more procedures in 2022...
