Gregory B. Sadler - That Philosophy Guy

I bring philosophy into practice, making complex classic philosophical ideas accessible for a wide audience of professionals, students, and life-long learners. After a decade in traditional academic positions, I started my own business and began doing philosophical work in more practical contexts. I am an APPA-certified philosophical counselor, a public speaker, an author, an ethics trainer, and an executive coach (among other things!).

Since I'm teaching an online open-access course, Existentialist Philosophy and Literature, which starts this coming week, & people ask me about Stoicism and Existentialism pretty frequently, I wrote a short piece about prospects for bringing them together, similarities, and differences

Coming up at Noon Central Time, I'll be holding my monthly online AMA (Ask Me Anything) session. I'll go for about 90 minutes, answering as many of the questions as I can get to. You can pop in to ask a question, or just hang out and hear the answers!

Here’s William Engels' reworking of the lecture videos I did many years back on Heidegger’s The Question Concerning Technology, in a “somewhat sleeker electronic envelope”, now over on History Of Philosophy Audio Archive!

Here's another of my previously unpublished or orphaned papers, this one working out a fuller picture of what prohairesis means in Aristotle's works by reading across his corpus and not just focusing on Nicomachean Ethics book 3 gregorybsadler.substack.com/p/what-is-aristotelian…

This particular piece, published first in The Stoic, and more recently in my Substack, seems to be drawing a good bit of attention, perhaps because it focuses on one very common misconception of Stoicism gregorybsadler.substack.com/p/stoic-perspective-wh…

Among Existentialists, there's no easy agreement about the meaningfulness of life. Some say it's absurd, but they don't always agree about what "absurd" means. For others, it's ambiguous, even mysterious. We'll dig into different positions in this class!

Back when virtue epistemology was becoming a hot new discourse in analytic philosophy, & reinventing a lot of wheels already long well-developed in other philosophical approaches, I wrote & presented this paper. Never got around to sending it out for publication, so I published it last night in my Substack

A lot of the authors in this course (starting February 12), you'll say: of course! But why study Lev Shestov? He's one of the first who makes the connection between Dostoevsky & Nietzsche. He also gets referenced by later authors. A true "missing link"!
