Lisää Daily 15: Philosophy to Welcome the Day

A deep and thoughtful life is a life well lived. Explore philosophy, and think in the company of others. Our podcast is simple. Each episode, we 'zoom in' to two paragraphs from a philosophical work. It could be anything: From Plato, to Freud, to Homer, to Proust! Our goal is to give you the tools to think about the paragraph and ideas yourself, to de-ivory-tower-ify it, rather than provide a simple summary. Think of it like a morning mental workout. New episodes every Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday.

Kant on Respect for the (Moral) Law

Today’s excerpt comes from Kant’s Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals.
