Philosophers Café:The Loss of Culture and the Civil Life
The first order of suffering is personal. The second order is seeing others suffer. Is there a third order of suffering, that odd and hard to identify suffering when we experience the loss of political aspirations, of what we thought was our social progress and how we imagined our civil life unfolding? Do Libanius (314 – c.392) and Hypatia (+415), the last of the great philosophers of pagan Rome and witnesses to its end, have something to teach us as we fear an end?
