The Philosophy of Life and Language

Friedrich von Schlegel

Sinopse

Friedrich von Schlegel's "The Philosophy of Life and Language" presents a profound exploration of the interplay between existence and expression, intertwining philosophical inquiry with linguistic analysis. Schlegel employs a rich, Romantic literary style, illuminating how language shapes our understanding of the world and individual consciousness. Positioned within the broader context of German Idealism, the book argues for the intrinsic connection between life experiences, thought, and linguistic manifestation, offering insights that resonate with both contemporary philosophical discussions and poetic forms of expression. Friedrich von Schlegel, a pivotal figure in the early 19th-century German Romantic movement, was influenced by his varied experiences as a poet, critic, and philosopher. His exposure to the conflicts of personal identity and cultural transitions in post-Enlightenment Europe profoundly informed his views on language as a living entity that evolves with human experience. This background culminated in his desire to bridge the realms of art and philosophy, as reflected in this seminal work. For readers interested in the intersection of philosophy, linguistics, and Romantic literature, "The Philosophy of Life and Language" is an essential read. Schlegel invites us to consider how our understanding of life is intimately linked to the language we use, making this book a vital contribution to the fields of philosophy and literary studies alike.

Speaking by the Numbers -...

Sean Palmer

It's not just what you say, but how you say it.
Good communicators know this, but it's often easier said than done. Teachers, leaders, and speakers are often left bewildered, wondering why the content that was so carefully planned and delivered seems to fall flat with the audience. The art of communication requires more than the transfer of information; it both connects with and engages the hearer. To communicate well, speakers must understand both their audience and themselves.
Speaking by the Numbers offers a strategy that combines communication principles with Enneagram wisdom to help leaders, pastors, and teachers understand how to convey content in ways that both inspire and connect with their audiences. Using the Enneagram wisdom of triads and stances, communicators can learn insight into the ways that various Enneagram numbers receive and process information. Sean Palmer draws from his extensive experience as a public speaker to develop communication strategies that lead to connection, transformation, and mobilization of audiences. Providing real examples of speeches and messages he has given, Palmer shows how he uses the Enneagram to craft a message that connects with his audience.
A healthy marriage of Enneagram wisdom and communication skill can help us speak with clarity into the heart of where people live, love, and experience life.
