What actually is ancient Greece in philosophy?

Many times in philosophy have mentioned some persons from ancient Greece. That place and time were full of philosophers, who created many thoughts about things, like idealistic republic and atomic models, but people almost ever asked one simple questions about those philosophers. They ever ask "why those texts are made in long time ago"? In philosophy, the key thing is not proof anything like in some empiric investigations. And what means or what is the role of ancient Greece or philosophers of ancient Greece in that profession. Another question goes like this: what is the difference between the philosophical and historical Greece?


The element of philosophy is to use rhetorical argumentation, what makes those texts or speeches feeling right. And the problem of philosophy is that philosophers are professional thinkers, who sometimes say something, what is not pleased the persons who keep the force in their hands. And that's why is more comfortable to say that some ancient philosopher said those things before some Voltaire said those things in some place because in those cases Mr. Voltaire would be escorted in the cellar of that castle, and then the brutal extortion began.


In the time of Voltaire, there was one golden rule in making writings. The kings or other noblemen should not embarrassed, and the best way to embarrass those people was show that they were wrong. Kings were perfect people, what means the thing, that they could ever be wrong in many cases. But when we are going to meet the modern philosopher's relationship with some man, named Socrates or Plato, we must say that none of the modern philosophers could ever meet those persons from ancient Greece. And in the real life, we can't go and ask anything from Plato or Socrates.


Maybe in some day in tomorrow we could build a time machine, and then we could go to meet those great men from Greece, but before that, we can only use our imagination, why those philosophers claimed to say something, what might be the reason, that those philosophers have made so much claiming. Other philosophers have put their own texts to their name, and we can't go to ask those Greeks that what they really have said or written in some garden in ancient Greece at the beginning of history.

Working life is not always easy.



Kimmo Huosionmaa

Helsinki is a beautiful city in winter, even there is no snow on the ground, and  I travel here by public transportation system quite often. So this system leaves time to think or listen some music or read the news. In my workplace, I will meet a different kind of people, and I sometimes think how easy is to "read the other people body language" as some psychiatrists say. If your boss doesn't like you, it will shine thru their behavior. They will play so-called excessive restless person, but then they want to show everybody, that you will be kicked off straight after three mistakes.


And because your boss doesn't like you, the persons in the work will get tuned that they must find only the mistakes of you work. Those bosses will sometimes make the competitions between persons, who will begin in the working place. There will be taken, two persons in the job and the best will get the job. So this guarantees that there will be no friends in that house. The competitions are necessary, because this is the way, how those persons can order to do almost everything in those places because the competition guarantees that the beginners will not make complaints in those places.


The disappointments and stress are visible to some people way to act, and in sometimes the things what those people have made are very visible in their shape, and this is the thing that should be trained in some schools, because if some things did not happen that is very visible in some people faces. Once during my studies, I worked in the customer service duties, and then there was the fight between me and one customer. That person asked my name and I told that to this person, then I continued my work.


After that one of my workmates came to ask me if I have done some routines and this person made that with very low noise. At the end of the working day, I noticed that somebody didn't answer me when I was doing my duties. That was the thing, what uncovered me after my work in that place ended after the summer. This customer has made the phone calls to my superiority and wanted the kicks off to me. This work in customer service teched me many things, and one was actually that some people say that they will know some big boss, but if they really know this person, their friend will come to the place right away.


The question of the body language is that if somebody has the superiority position for all the day, and this person must not hear any critics, will that seen in every other action what that person does. If we are talking about some societies, where most of the persons have limited ability to learn some things, I will sometimes face the thing, where another person asks to speak English even if every person in the room speaks Finnish. Those people will get the good boost for their self-esteem if they can speak the way that everybody on the table doesn't understand the discussion. This is one way to show that some person is "better" than other. And of course, in those places, the discussions about the personal future will sometimes make without this person, because that way is simpler and easier to the crew. And in those discussions will always show that this person is under the crew.
