PEDRO NAGEM DE SOUZA

In “Philosophy in the Tragic age of the Greeks”, the problem of the relationship between Philosophy, on the one hand, and the Health of Culture, on the other, is adressed inthe first two chapters, followed by an unfinished list of pre-Platonic philosophers and its main doctrines. Even before this problem, the preface highlights the notion of Way of Living.
The project's objectives are: to outline the importance of the Way of Living and its relationship with the notion of Health; from there, trace the continuity between the preface and the first two chapters through its two central concepts (health and culture); and finally, describe the synthesis made by the author, based on the notion of philosophical taste, of the figure and function of the philosopher in a healthy culture.
