Ancient and Modern Celebrated Freethinkers by Charles Bradlaugh Lina This book presents a brief bio and a summary of important ideas & events in the lives of 23 great philosophers from ancient times through the 19th century. The book focuses on freethinkers, who are known to say things which upset those in power, Several of these men paid for their beliefs with their lives; many others were persecuted and imprisoned for saying what they believed. (Summary by Ted Delorme) Prooflisteners: silverquill and lubee930 Lucretius Today - Epicurus and Epicurean Philosophy Cassius Amicus Lucretius Today is a podcast dedicated to learning Epicurean philosophy through study of the poet Lucretius, who lived in the age of Julius Caesar and wrote "On The Nature of Things," the only complete presentation of Epicurus' ideas left to us from the ancient world. We'll walk you line by line through the six books of Lucretius' poem, and we'll discuss how Epicurean philosophy can apply to you today. In this podcast we won't be talking about modern political issues. How you apply Epicurus in your own life is entirely up to you. Over at the Epicureanfriends.com web forum, we apply this approach by following a set of ground rules we call "Not Neo-Epicurean, But Epicurean." Epicurean philosophy is not a religion, it''s not Stoicism, it's not Humanism, it's not Libertarianism, it's not Atheism, and it's not Marxism or any other philosophy - it is unique in the history of Western Civilization, and as we explore Lucretius's poem you'll quickly see how that is the case. The home page of thi NeanderArt NeanderArt From the caves and rock shelters of Europe and the Near East, new evidence is emerging that the ancient people we now know as Neanderthals did not simply scrape by and live in a delicate balance between ape and man, but surrounded themselves with creations of art and culture that we used to think were the exclusive domain of modern humans.Join us in conversation with the experts who are making these discoveries and revolutionizing our ideas about the world of NeanderArt.These conversations stem from the presentations and ideas shared at the inaugural NeanderArt conference held at the University of Turin and organized by CeSMAP with the scientific partnership of the International Union of Prehistoric and Protohistoric Sciences (UISPP) and the International Federation of Rock Art Organizations (IFRAO).
