For Some Cause The Fact Of Understanding Philosophy Is Pretty Undemanding, You Just Need To Train Yourself

for some cause the fact of understanding philosophy is pretty undemanding, you just need to train yourself to comprehend some words or expressions on your daily basis, in other terms all depends of determination, and later you get used to it. [it helps a lot if you're a beginner] : here some recommendations to start reading. (enjoy it!).

• critique of judgment. (immanuel kant; others of him "critique of pure reason" or "what is enlightenment?").

• discipline and punish. (michel foucault).

• the rebel. (albert camus; plus "the fall", "the plague", and "the outsider").

• the trouble with being born. (emil cioran, and "a short history of decay").

• "nausea" and "existencialism is a humanism". (two different books of jean-paul sartre).

• phenomenology of spirit. (hegel's book, and "lectures on the philosophy history").

• "republic" and "allegory of the cave". (plato).

• "metaphysics" and "rhetoric" (aristotle).

• how to read lacan (slavoj zizek, gotta put others, but, is the only one that i've read, i'll update this)

• "capitalism is realism: is there no alternative?" (mark fisher), "postmodernism" or the cultural logic of late capitalism (fredric jameson), "phenomenology of the end" (franco berardi).

• "the burnout society". (byung-chul han).

Back Up Your Hard Drive. What do I mean by that? Although your life may be cruising along smoothly, I recommend that every once in a while you stop and envision a sudden shipwreck occurring. Then think, re-think and remember what you would really want to hold on to if disaster should strike.
