Socrates wordt wel de vader van de westerse filosofie genoemd, maar wat zijn precies zijn filosofische opvattingen? Hij staat bekend om zijn nederigheid, maar lezers vinden hem vaak arrogant en neerbuigend. We herhalen zijn bewering dat 'het niet-onderzochte leven het leven niet waard is', maar zetten geen stappen om een onderzocht leven te leiden. We weten dat hij veroordeeld werd tot de gifbeker omdat hij 'de jeugd zou hebben gecorrumpeerd', maar onderwijzen de hedendaagse jongeren met s...

Becoming someone is a learning process; and what we learn is the new values around which, if we succeed, our lives will come to turn. Agents transform themselves in the process of, for example, becoming parents, embarking on careers, or acquiring a passion for music or politics.

Omniprésents au Moyen Âge, les fantômes auraient dû déserter l’Europe à l’avènement de la philosophie mécaniste de Descartes et de Newton. Pourtant, des silhouettes aux contours très anciens continuèrent de peupler les mondes d’Ancien Régime : enfants mort-nés, cadavres sans sépultures, gardiens spectraux de trésors oubliés…Lancée sur les traces de ces apparitions tantôt apaisantes tantôt effrayantes, Caroline Callard fait émerger les termes de ce véritable « moment spectral ». Au t...

Parents and educators expect gifted children to be well-behaved, studious, and hard working. Why, then, do so many have trouble in school? According to Dr. Rosemary Callard-Szulgit, perfectionism—the number one social-emotional trait of gifted children—can actually immobilize some children and cause social adjustment problems for others. This explains why so many of today's gifted children do not, or cannot, complete school assignments or even follow through on personal responsibilities.

Casi 2500 años después, la figura de Sócrates sigue suscitando interpretaciones encontradas.

Sin embargo, el carácter verdaderamente radical de su pensamiento ha sido, en muchos casos, domesticado o malinterpretado.En Sócrates al descubierto, Agnes Callard —renombrada filósofa y profesora de la Universidad de Chicago— recupera con brill...
