Book Synopsis



Todo lo que los filósofos griegos pensaron hace mucho tiempo para mejorar tu vida ahora mismo.

¿Qué le diría Epicuro a Elon Musk? ¿Y Diógenes a una celebrity de Instagram? Es más, ¿qué te dirían los viejos filósofos a ti? Sí, a ti.

Eres más griego de lo que piensas, todo lo que te pasa les pasó antes a ellos, tus problemas son los mismos y sus recetas para la vida siguen estando vigentes, pero desgraciadamente las hemos olvidado o malinterpretado. Es hora de volver a ellos.

El escritor y aventurero Fabián C. Barrio ha recorrido el mundo en busca de respuestas y las ha encontrado en los filósofos de hace tres mil años, cuyo pensamiento logró modelar quienes somos hoy. Sus enseñanzas son la base de este libro ameno, socarrón e iconoclasta que quiere subsanar «la duda más roedora a la que se enfrenta el primate moderno: ¿cómo coño consigo estar bien?».

La clave está en las cuatro escuelas principales del pensamiento griego: el estoicismo, el epicureísmo, el escepticismo y el cinismo. Ellos nos enseñaron a controlar los placeres, a lidiar con el deseo, a sobrellevar los miedos y a cultivar la belleza. Estos «griegos apolillados» tienen mucho que decir al hombre moderno, y a nosotros sólo nos toca aprender a releer conceptos como ataraxia, eudaimonía y epoché.

Usted se encuentra aquí es un divertido e irreverente viaje al pasado para traer al presente, a nuestras aceleradas vidas del siglo XXI, la filosofía que lleva siglos ayudándonos a vivir mejor. Nadie como Fabián C. Barrio para que sus lecciones nos lleguen tan frescas como si hubiesen sido pensadas expresamente para ti.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


Everything the Greek philosophers thought long ago to improve your life right now.

What would Epicurus say to Elon Musk? And Diogenes to an Instagram celebrity? More importantly, what would the old philosophers say to you? Yes, you.

You are more Greek than you think. Everything that happens to you happened to them before, your problems are the same, and their life lessons are still relevant today. Unfortunately, we have forgotten or misinterpreted them. It's time to return to them.

The writer and adventurer Fabián C. Barrio has traveled the world in search of answers and found them in the philosophers of three thousand years ago, whose thinking shaped who we are today. Their teachings form the foundation of this entertaining, sarcastic, and iconoclastic book, which aims to resolve "the most gnawing doubt faced by the modern primate: how the hell do I manage to feel okay?"

The key lies in the four main schools of Greek thought: Stoicism, Epicureanism, Skepticism, and Cynicism. They taught us to control pleasures, deal with desire, overcome fears, and cultivate beauty. These "moth-eaten Greeks" have a lot to say to modern humans, and it's up to us to relearn concepts like ataraxia, eudaimonia, and epoché.

You Are Here is a fun and irreverent journey into the past to bring philosophy into the present, helping us navigate our fast-paced 21st-century lives. No one like Fabián C. Barrio to make his lessons feel as fresh as if they were written just for you.
