New meme book is here
>>24955864And a completely useless one at that. Who needs Aristotle? The ultimate truth that Plato and Aristotle never found (because they never really wanted it) with all their philosophy and its methods and terminologies is found by a Catholic child. A Catholic child knows all the truth about the basic dogmas that he needs to be saved. These most important of all truths that a Catholic child has were never found by Aristotle and Plato with all their brains, intellect, knowledge, philosophy, logic, dialectics, and grammar.
>>24955899Retard fight. Plato and Aristotle missed the mark the same way Catholics missed the mark. Philosophical failures, the lot of you
>>24955864What makes it a meme book?
>>24955934What mark, O wise one?
>>24955899Boring.
>>24955899Christianity is just Platonism with a Jewish middle man.
>>24956033They all fail to recognise and appreciate the omnipresent sense of "is"
Lot of faggots in this thread, there is.
Did we need a new edition? What's changed? I still have a Bollingen Plato. Fuck Hackett. Honestly, Thomas Taylor collection would be best if it weren't expensive as hell.>>24955899I'm Catholic and this post is embarassing.>>24955934Lol. Lmao even. So (post)modernity and nihilism are a lot better, right???>>24956062You say that negatively. But the meeting of Athens / Rome and Jerusalem vis a vis the Christian religion is a singular and unique and perhaps the ultimate philosophical moment in history...
>>24956287I have the Bollingen Plato too, but was somewhat annoyed realizing that the disputed Platonic works were excluded (even though there is now questioning the other way, about whether several of them like Alcibiades are genuine after all). Hackett at the very least has every work classically credited to Plato, which is important as they were only disputed relatively recently, and most commentators of Plato’s works were reading those disputed works closely too
>>24955864best translation and set of notes for Aristotle Metaphysics comes from CDC Reeve, so maybe it's good
>>24956033The vedic atman.
