Plútarchos

    1. leden 2040 – 1. leden 0120

    Plutarchos byl řecký historik a esejista, který proslul svými životopisy a filozofickými úvahami. Jeho díla, napsaná v řečtině, si kladla za cíl oslovit jak řecké, tak římské publikum. Plutarchos je známý svým zařazením mezi střední platoniky a jeho práce často zkoumají morální a etické otázky. Jeho jedinečný styl spočívá ve spojování historických postav a filozofických myšlenek, což čtenářům nabízí hluboký vhled do antického světa.

      Freundschaft und Feindschaft sind der Gegenstand von drei Schriften des griechischen Gelehrten Plutarch von Chaironeia. Soll man viele Freunde haben? Es hebt das Selbstgefühl, von einer Vielzahl von Freunden umgeben zu sein. Doch was ist, wenn man auf einmal von allen Seiten um Hilfe gebeten wird? Wie man Nutzen zieht von seinen Feinden: In einer Wettbewerbs- oder Konkurrenzsituation kann man gegebenenfalls von der Strategie des Gegners profitieren. Wie man den Schmeichler vom Freund unterscheidet: Neben den üblichen Jasagern gibt es auch raffinierte Taktiker, die ihr Opfer so umgarnen, dass man ihnen nur durch eine Gegenstrategie das Handwerk legen kann.

      Er kann einen gewaltigen Schaden anrichten: der Zorn. Schließlich schadet er nicht nur dem ›Empfänger‹, sondern ebenso dem Zornigen selbst, und auch gänzlich Unbeteiligte bekommen mitunter ihr Fett weg. Doch Choleriker und ihr Umfeld können beruhigt sein: Der griechische Philosoph Plutarch wusste bereits vor rund 2000 Jahren, wie man den Zorn besiegt – und lässt in seinem ›Ratgeber‹ einen Betroffenen selbst davon erzählen. Der positive Nebeneffekt dieser Therapie: mehr Achtsamkeit und Wohlwollen gegenüber anderen wie gegenüber sich selbst.
