Henry Corbin - La Philosophie Islamique Par Henry Corbin - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Through his spellbinding, fluid and complicit speech, Edgar Morin traces new ways of entering words. He is a smuggler of knowledge neither mutilated nor compartmentalized, able to grasp the complexity of the real, which preserves us illusory knowledge, by making us drop our blinders. Each situation becomes a resource sensuality, friendship, risk, science, politics, poetry, coexisting, struggle and ends up harmoniously intertwined in the thinker's thinking about the world. In this intimate self-portrait, Edgar Morin gives us the clutches of his thought which, throughout his life, have determined the construction of his impulses, his convictions and his struggles.

Why did Socrates, on the eve of his death, decide to start playing music? Why is beautiful music often sad? Why is this sadness also a consolation? Why do we always hope that music is able to make us better if we listen to it? And above all, why does music have so much power over us, why is it able to upset us from top to bottom while, literally, it means nothing and has nothing to say? Based on the analysis of Jankelevitch, Hegel and Alain, we will try to answer these questions, and put words to the elementary and mysterious power of music. Ollivier Pourriol, an associate of philosophy and a cinema specialist, likes to mix the two. From scenes of illustrious films, he explains the concepts of philosophy, which take shape in reality.
