For the 300th anniversary of Hryhorii Skovoroda, we discussed the legacy of the Ukrainian 'Socrates' with his modern-day colleague, philosopher Sergiy Taradajko, live on air on December 6.
In Zaporizhzhia, at an exhibition among many paintings, they presented the book «Philosophy of Lines. Mykola Koliadko». In it, the philosopher and writer Sergiy Taradajko reveals the deep motifs of the artist's works.
«Ukrainians are historically not inclined to follow rules», shared his opinion with listeners on the radio show «On Touch» with philosopher Sergiy Taradajko. And he explained the reason: for a long time, Ukrainians lived in the composition of foreign states, and were forced to seek ways to «slip out» of externally imposed restrictions. However, according to Sergiy Taradajko's belief, all civilized countries are based on adherence to rules. Therefore, Ukrainians should also learn this life principle.
“Not proletarians, but users of all countries – let’s unite!” This is what the slogan of modern labor solidarity should look like. Remote work, learning, and creativity during quarantine highlight the need to review fundamental concepts: work, rest, parasitism, productivity, and, ultimately, solidarity of workers, which we celebrate on May 1 this year for the first time in a different way than we are used to. We talk about this with philosopher Sergiy Taradajko.
The new year already in all styles begins with contemplation about the 'good forgotten' or the 'bad acquired' old. Post-truth. New? Because it has been recognized as the word of the year. Or old? Because it has been studied by ancient philosophers. How to experience this new-old here and now, so as not just to live through and get over it, but to re-examine and use thinking with the philosopher.
Philosopher Sergiy Taradajko — about the most important lessons we have learned in 2014 and the homework for 2015.
