Ep.3 Johannes Niederhauser-Philosophising Today: Remembering Being and Returning to Plato's Cave

SENSESPACE

In my first conversation with Johannes we talked about his journey leaving the academy and participating in the new philosophical emergence with the founding of the Halykon Guild. We considered why philosophy lacks standing today and the re-appearance of questions of being and stillness. Lastly we riffed on Nietzsche's death of God and how we have 'swallowed the ocean' and wiped away the horizon of man. As accompaniment to the conversation see Johannes' powerful reading of 'Death of God' here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRM-c...

Johannes Niederhauser is a philosopher from Germany who recently completed a PhD entitled 'Heidegger on Death and Being' at Warwick University. He is the founder of the Halykon Guild and runs the Classical Philosophy Youtube Channel where he is re-enlivening philosophy from Socrates to Nietzsche in the public domain.
