＜p＞Though the ancient Greek philosophical concept of
＜em＞schol?＜/em＞ is usually translated as 'leisure', there is a vast difference between the two. Leisure, derived from Latin
＜em＞licere＜/em＞,has its roots in Roman
＜em＞otium＜/em＞ and connotes the uses of free time in ways permitted by the status quo.
＜em＞Schol?＜/em＞ is the actualization of mind and one's humanity within a republic that devotes its culture to making such a choice possible. This volume traces the background in Greek culture and the writings of Plato of a daring proposal presented by Aristotle, that
＜em＞schol?＜/em＞ is a principle for political organization.＜/p＞
＜p＞The concept of
＜em＞schol?＜/em＞ by and large did not survive Aristotle. To sharpen our understanding of
＜em＞schol?＜/em＞ the book goes on to identify the concepts of leisure which we have inherited from the intellectuals of the Hellenistic and Roman empires and the early Church Fathers.
＜em＞Schol?＜/em＞ also had its contrary
＜em＞ascholia＜/em＞ ? busyness ? which Plato described as a social and psychological pathology and his analysis suggests why, due to these ills, current visions of a leisure society are highly unlikely.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
