Borderless Philosophy contributor George Saad and musician Peter Weatherall are philosophers rocking an album — an ancient philosophy album. Forget the silent stones of forgotten statues — the ancient philosophers are rocks with rhythm, pep, and swag.
You can listen to the whole album, or jump right to your favorite hits: Lady Philosophy opens the show…
Lao Tzu goes with the flow…
Heraclitus lets the fire roar…
Empedocles speaks of elements four…
Parmenides says that what is, is…
Gorgias rules the argument biz…
Socrates asks what is true…
Plato says you already knew…
The Allegory of the Cave unlocks your chains…
Aristotle has four causes he explains…
The Golden Mean is virtue serene…
Epicurus keeps his garden green…
Epictetus accepts things he cannot control…
Pyrrho is happy not to know…
Plotinus returns to the One…
While Boethius longs to see the sun.
Though the crew has no ambition of becoming modern“philosophy influencers,” these Dialectically Rolling Stones happily offer up this album for your enjoyment and edification.
