LOS FILÓSOFOS Y LA MUERTE.La propia,claro.(I)


Hace unos días, Gregorio Luri, en su Café de Ocata, nos deleitaba con esta cita del libro "La estrella de la Redención", de Rosenzweig, libro del que yo no sé una palabra pero me basta con la de Gregorio Luri, el cual afirma que es un texto memorable:

“Por la muerte, por el miedo a la muerte empieza el conocimiento del Todo. De derribar la angustia de lo terrenal, de quitarle a la muerte su aguijón venenoso y su aliento de pestilencia al Hades, se jacta la filosofía.”

Pues bien, esta serie que ahora comienza nos mostrará qué tal se las componían algunos célebres filósofos con esa importante experiencia, especialmente en la variedad no tan infrecuente conocida como "ser asesinado", gracias a las privilegiadas informaciones suministradas por D. Thomas de Quincey, de quién no cabe poner en duda ni la más pequeña brizna de sus palabras:

En la entrega de hoy, el gran Thomas Hobbes:

Hobbes no fue asesinado, nunca he logrado comprender por qué ni en virtud de qué principio. Esta es una omisión capital de los profesionales del siglo diecisiete, pues a todas luces se trata de un espléndido sujeto para el asesinato, salvo que era flaco y huesudo.

Por lo demás, puedo probar que tenía dinero y (lo cual es muy cómico)
carecía de todo derecho a oponer la menor resistencia ya que, conforme a su propia tesis, el poder irresistible crea la más elevada especie de derecho, de modo que constituye rebelión, y de las más negras, el resistirse a ser asesinado cuando ante nosotros aparece una fuerza competente.

No obstante, si bien no fue asesinado, me complace asegurarles que, según su propia cuenta, estuvo tres veces a punto de serlo, lo cual nos consuela.

La primera fue durante la primavera de 1640, en que pretende
haber repartido un pequeño manuscrito en defensa del rey contra el Parlamento. Este manuscrito, dicho sea de paso, no se encontró jamás, pero Hobbes afirma que «si Su Majestad no hubiera disuelto el Parlamento» «lo habría puesto enpeligro de muerte». De nada valió disolver el Parlamento, pues en noviembre del mismo año se reunió el Parlamento Largo y Hobbes,temiendo por segunda vez ser asesinado, huyó a Francia.

En Francia, Hobbes logró defender bastante bien su garganta durante
diez años, pero al cabo publicó el Leviathán en homenaje a Cromwell. El viejo cobarde empezó a morirse de miedo por tercera vez; imaginaba que las espadas de los caballeros se volvían contra él y recordaba la suerte de los embajadores del Parlamento en La Haya y Madrid.

«Tum» dice de sí mismo en su vida, que está escrita en un latín para andar por casa:
«Tum venit in mentem mihi Dorislaus et Ascham; Tanquam proscripto terror ubique aderat.»

Y en consecuencia corrió de vuelta a Inglaterra.


Ahora bien, es innegable que el hombre merecía una paliza por haber escrito
el Leviathán y otras dos o tres por perpetrar un pentámetro que acaba tan villanamente en «terror ubique aderat», pero nadie pensó nunca que fuese digno de algo más que una paliza.

Toda la historia es una pura invención suya. En una carta mentirosísima que
escribió «a una persona ilustrada» (Wallis, el matemático) cuenta lo sucedido de manera completamente distinta y dice (pág. 8) que huyó a casa «porque no estaba seguro con el clero francés», insinuando que podía ser asesinado a causa de su religión, lo cual en verdad hubiera sido algo de mucha risa: ¡Tom en la hoguera a causa de su religión!

Lo cierto es que, fueran o no tales historias simples exageraciones, Hobbes temió hasta el fin de sus días que alguien lo asesinase.

"Thomas de Quincey.Del asesinato considerado como una de las bellas artes."

Efectivamente, es un libro memorable. Pero añado: y muy, muy difícil. Lo cual quiere decir que no estoy seguro de haberlo entendido.

Me ha abierto el hambre.¿hay alguna edición/idioma que recomiende?

Gregorio Luri dijo...

Creo que han reeditado recientemente la edición de Sígueme. Te aconsejo
que
antes le eches una ojeada, de verdad.

Dhavar,

No tiene nada que ver, disculpas. En Bloglines aparece una entrada "Ricky López. Un hombre despechado" que no aparece en el blog, y que me lleva a una página de error si trato de acceder a ella desde Bloglines, deduzco que la borraste. ¿cierto?

De De Quincey leí en su momento las Confesiones, apenas me acuerdo del libro. Me parece una idea muy interesante esta serie.

GLuri:

Gracias.Lo hojearé primero.

Mary White:

Ayer tuve una juerga importante en casa.Y, mientras, entraba y salía del bolg.Alguien, en algún momento, lo borró.Quizá yo mismo,no recuerdo bien.
Lo voy a poner otra vez.

Bueno,una juerga es el mejor motivo para estas cosas.

If you stop and think about it, you will likely notice a lot of the distinct ways it can wiggle its way into your life. Still as with many things, there is more to it and some things should be carefully thought about.

But most people have a decent perspective about many of the different results. However, you and many others still would like to be more educated on this matter. The rest of this article will boost your awareness of this topic.

The relative complexities of men's and women's fashion

Both women and men may feel the demands of keeping their wardrobe up-to-date and in time, yet men's fashion frequently feels a lot simpler. Of program, for both sexes, costumes and style choices may be just as delicate, and there are numerous'trendy'things that can quickly become fashion faux pas - who is able to say they frequently see people running around in 70s flames? On the other hand, men's fashion features a few choice items which can exist forever - which man is planning to watch out of position with a good-quality, tailored suit, for example? Choose classic pieces, colours and fabrics and you'll never seem out-of-place.

Why common men's style is timeless

The classic man's suit has barely changed for over a hundred years. True, there are several kinds for various occasions, however they are all common in their quest for a clever, sharp try to find the person. The great thing about common fashion for men is that it is effortlessly elegant effortlessly neat. A well-groomed gentleman can more often than not look his sharpest in a well-tailored suit, and it is a testament to the style of such clothing. A suit will be utilized to work in several jobs because of the professional look it provides to the person, instilling a sense of respect and trust. Equally a suit will be utilized to many social situations, such as a tuxedo to a black-tie affair. This extraordinary versatility which allows suits to be used in almost all occasions is what gives it its eternal side and a lasting invest men's fashion.

Contemporary movements in traditional men's fashion

Whilst common men's designs can never be changed, it's interesting to remember that changes in men's fashion trends have produced particular basic clothes back to fashion. The recognition of vintage clothing, specifically, has taken back a wide-variety of basic models into men's wardrobes, such as that of the dandy gentleman. 'Dandy'is a term used to refer to men who clothe themselves in a classic yet luxurious way, operating in a polished method and placing value on appearance. This tendency for nearly'over-the-top'classic fashion for men is evident from events such as the'Tweed Run', wherever men and women of all ages clothe themselves in especially Victorian-style clothing and take to the streets on vintage bicycles - with lots of the men sporting remarkable mustaches! This really is just one single of several types of research presenting the revival of such designs. Additionally, there are numerous blogs online which give attention to gentlemanly style - such as'The Dandy Project'and'Dandyism'- as well as complete web sites such as'The Art of Manliness'specialized in giving articles on classic men's fashion and grooming.

In conclusion, although specific issues with classic men's fashion can be cut back as new developments, the basic clothes that they are based on will never fall out of fashion.

The enterprise provides 1 [url=http://nhommuadeal.com/thoi-trang.html]gia re hom nay[/url] for each and every working day in each and each and every of the marketplaces it serves. The Groupon performs as an assurance deal using ThePoint's system: if a specified number of individuals indicator up for the provide you, then the offer you gets obtainable to all if the predetermined minimum is not happy, no one receives the provide that working day. This decreases threat for suppliers, who can consider treatment of the discount codes as quantity reductions as nicely as solution sales marketing devices. Groupon tends to make money by retaining around 50 percent the revenue the customer pays for the coupon.

For example, an $eighty therapeutic massage could be purchased by the consumer for $40 via Groupon, and then Groupon and the retailer would break up the $40. That is, the retailer gives a therapeutic therapeutic massage valued at $eighty and will get roughly $20 from Groupon for it (underneath a 50%/fifty% break up). Or, if $240 effectively worth of home portray options is acquired by the consumer for $fifty by indicates of Groupon, then the business gets $20 five and Groupon keeps $twenty 5. The buyer gets the massage, or the property portray company, in these examples, from the retailer for which they at 1st paid out $forty (or $fifty) to Groupon. There are specific firms to which Groupon to start with did not offer its providers, like taking pictures ranges and strip golf equipment nevertheless, taking pictures ranges have been showcased on Groupon.

Unlike classified advertising, the merchant does not shell out any upfront expense to take part: Groupon collects personal particulars from willing buyers and then contacts only these consumers, largely by every day e-mail, who may most likely be fascinated in a specific product or provider.

Groupon employs a substantial quantity of copywriters who draft descriptions for the bargains showcased by e mail and on the web site. Groupon's marketing textual content for the 'deals' has been noticed as a contributing element to the acceptance of the web internet site, showcasing a distinctive blend of substantial fact-analyzing and witty humor.

Owing to Groupon's market place obtaining largely composed of feminine consumers, the provides are frequently centered on the overall well being, fitness and attractiveness marketplaces.

There are prospective difficulties with the company design. For illustration, a successful supply could briefly swamp a modest organization with also a whole lot of buyers, jeopardizing a likelihood that consumers will be dissatisfied, or that there won't be satisfactory resolution to satisfy the desire. Gap, a huge clothing retailer, was capable to offer with 445,000 price reduction codes in a countrywide provide (even even though it skilled server troubles at a single phase), but a smaller sized enterprise could grow to be all of a sudden flooded with buyers. one coffee keep in Portland, Oregon struggled with an increase in clients for three months, when it bought shut to one,000 Groupons on the a single working day it was introduced, according to a single particular report. In reaction to equivalent troubles, Groupon officers situation that 'deal' subscriptions want to be capped in development to a inexpensive assortment.
