Can we understand Philosophy in 100 words? Philosophy does not have a separate terminology like Mathematics or Medicine. Philosophers, skilled manipulators of language, take everyday, familiar words and, like magicians, assemble them to interpret the world and persuade us of the truth of their statements.
The hundred maxims of the book you hold in your hands analyze and give meaning to concepts ranging from truth and will to state, religion, and deconstruction, belonging to significant figures from Plato to Kant and Derrida. A concise and comprehensible guide to often conflicting, sometimes deceptive, but always fascinating ideas.
The series Que sais-je? (What do I know?), to which this book belongs, is one of the most renowned general knowledge series in the world. Since 1941, it has been continuously enriched, covering a wide variety of topics in an understandable way, from Homer to gastronomy. Titles from the series have been translated into 45 languages.
What exactly does Augustine mean when he says "I loved my depravity" and Nietzsche when he states that "God is dead"? One hundred fundamental sayings from all eras and schools of thought are gathered and analyzed in a book that can be read like a short story, or can be perceived as a practical guide or unique dictionary of Philosophy.
