Guys?

Sorry man, I can't help you. Thank you for the meme though

What is your philosophical goal?
If anything read the Republic, since Aristotle responds to it.

I'm going to study philosophy at university. Currently I'm preparing. (Politeia=The republic)

>>8221761

No problem. Always happy to supply other anons with memes.

>studying philosophy at university

Why the fuck would anyone do this? You can study philosophy without doing so in an educational institution and get a degree which will actually lead to employment (unless you're going to study PPE, in which case go ahead).

Nah, it's philosophy and mathematics for me. Either I'm going to be a neet who studied philosophy and mathematics or I'm going to be just a neet since I literally can't motivate myself to do anything else.

>>8221889
Yes you can. You're choosing not to.

If you're committed to doing shit all be an academic - that's just like being a student for life.

Read the Theaetetus. Solid foundation for epistemology. Euthyphro is a good as well, deals with the piety question with which almost any university course starts. The Cratylus starts you of on philosophy of language.

Reading Descartes, discourse de la methode, is also advisable. Descartes is very accessible and the start of the modern period.

Just a general history of philosophy to contextualise whatever course you get. Plato.stanford.eu is the resource to use. You can further read up on Kant.

If you going for mathematics, take statistics/data science direction for maximal employability.

Of course I'll try to go down the academic road but I probably won't make it. Maybe I'll also throw German literature into the mix and when I'm alone in my neet abode I can try and write a book. Not that I think I'll have some sort of success, it just sounds like a thing I'd really enjoy.

Thanks! I'll get right to it.

Pre Socratics. That should really be first.

Plato's Gorgias, Cicero's De Inventione, then Rhetorica ad Herennium (sometimes sold as by Cicero), then Schopenhauer's Art of Being Right, and you'll never have to read a book.

Stop being so negative, pal. If you genuinely read philosophy and don't just do it at university "because" there is a good chance you are intelligent on some level, and therefore you can make it.
