What is a crisis\, though? Can any unnerving moment or peri od be called a crisis\, or are there different dimensions of a crisis to w hich we need to be attentive? Is solidarity possible after experiencing a crisis like Covid-19? Can Buddhism make any contribution to facilitating s olidarity? This presentation explores the meaning and nature of a crisis a nd our responses to it by drawing on modern Korean political thinker Pak C h’iu’s (1909–1949) analysis of crisis and feminist-Buddhist thinker Kim Ir yŏp’s (1896–1971) Buddhist philosophy. By doing so\, this presentation con siders what social\, political\, existential\, and even religious meaning we can draw from our experience of crises\, and what questions these insig hts present to us.

Well-being\, also known as prudential value\, refers to what ever makes a life non-instrumentally good for the person living it. Well-b eing is the object of immense practical\, philosophical\, and scientific c oncern. Assessments of well-being help to guide our decisions in everyday life\, from relationships\, to health decisions\, to education and career choices. Well-being is increasingly the object of governmental and institu tional policy\, and even policies that are not aimed directly at promoting it can be evaluated in terms of their impacts on well-being. Colleges and universities routinely offer programs designed to help students maintain their well-being in the face of academic and personal stress. However\, de bates over the nature of well-being have raged since the beginning of phil osophical inquiry\, leaving us in a bad position when it comes to making h eadway on addressing those practical and scientific concerns. The goal of this talk is to show how the application of naturalistic methodology can h elp us to resolve the philosophical stalemate and thus to make progress in our practical and scientific projects relating to well-being.

This connection has much to do with his ea rly music education. His contemporaries testify that he was a good pianist . His musical ambition\, or his musical daimon\, urged him to compose musi c\, although he had no training in this area. Most of his compositions are from his late teens\; his earliest inspirations are Beethoven\, Mozart\, Haydn\, Schubert\, Schumann and Wagner. His compositions were gathered tog ether and published by Curt Paul Janz in Friedrich Nietzsche\, Der musikal ische Nachlass. Nietzsche’s music is available in several productions. How ever\, Nietzsche did not follow a musical path and decided to become a phi lologist and dedicated his life to writing and philosophy.
\nNietzsc he’s background in music\, on the other hand\, influenced his way of think ing and writing. All of these interesting areas between music\, literature \, and philosophy and Nietzsche’s relationship to music understood on a br oad spectrum have been explored by many Nietzsche scholars including Georg es Liébert\, Graham Parkes\, Francois Noudelmann\, Stefan Lorenz Sorgner a nd others and in the anthology\, An Anthology on Nietzsche and Music: Phil osophical Thoughts and Musical Experiments\, edited by the presenters of t oday’s event. This event is dedicated to the exploration of this relations hip between Nietzsche and music.

Based on a variety of discoveries and evolutions that are constitutive of modernity (globaliz ation\, Protestantism\, the invention of the telescope)\, modern man has a dopted an Archimedean\, external position vis-à-vis the world. According to Arendt\, this ‘view from without’ has gradually jeopardized the experie nce of a shared world\, endangering the foundation of all meaning-giving a ctivities.
\nMy talk can be considered as a reply to Arendt’s pessim istic account of modern ‘world-alienation’. It builds on the idea that som e of the most influential thinkers of the twentieth century (Ernst Jünger \, Georg Lukács\, Ernst Bloch\, Theodor Adorno\, Walter Benjamin\, Aby Wa rburg\, Sigmund Freud) did not equate the loss of a shared world with the loss of meaning. Rather\, the conceptual framework of a substantial part o f early twentieth century German philosophy centers on the exploration of a productive opposition\, negation or fragmentation of the world. From the perspective of these thinkers\, the world’s ‘durability’ (Arendt) is not simply a source of shared meaning since it can be experienced as the mark of its indifference to change and renewal.
