Titoli in Etica e moralità

La ética es una disciplina peligrosa y subversiva, capaz de cuestionar profundamente las normas establecidas. Ética en la calle pretende recuperar ese cuestionamiento de las creencias y los valores para crear una plaza pública virtual que permita a los lectores dialogar entorno a preguntas que nos formulamos hoy en día: explorar qué significa vivir una vida digna y buena, qué es el bien y el mal, cuáles son los límites que nos plantea la ingeniería genética o la inteligencia artificial, entre otros.

Las Meditaciones de Marco Aurelio es una obra que todavía hoy sigue ayudando a millones de lectores a vivir mejor. Cuando nos enfrentamos a su lectura, una pregunta nos asalta inevitablemente: ¿cómo pudo Marco Aurelio (121-180), máxima autoridad de uno de los imperios más grandes de la historia, conservar la serenidad en medio de un tumulto de guerras, traiciones, epidemias y catástrofes naturales que lo sacudieron durante cerca de dos decenios? La respuesta se encuentra en la filosofía en la que se formó desde muy joven y por la que experimentó una intensa pasión: el estoicismo.

O Sr. Hume possui um sentimento delicado, um pensamento de feitio original, uma linguagem perspícua, não raro elegante, qualidades que não poderiam deixar de recomendar seus escritos a todo leitor de bom gosto. É pena que um gênio como esse empregue as suas habilidades como frequentemente o faz em seus ataques à religião de seu país. Ele não age como um inimigo franco e leal, mas tenta enfraquecer a autoridade dela por meio de sugestões oblíquas e insinuações ardilosas.

Definía la ética Fernando Savater, en su conocido Ética para Amador, como "el arte de vivir, el saber vivir, por lo tanto el arte de discernir lo que nos conviene (lo bueno) y lo que no nos conviene (lo malo)". Manuel Calvo logra en Filosofía para la felicidad anticipar un nuevo clásico, una obra de divulgación filosófica que nos hace cuestionarnos nuestra forma de sociabilizarnos. Su lectura nos llevará a perder el miedo, el miedo a Dios, a la muerte, a la propia vida, para alcanzar la libertad, reivindicar el orgullo como dignidad y ser conscientes de nuestra realidad, nuestro papel, como parte fundamental del Universo.
