On friendship and distrust: La Rochefoucauld's philosophical aphorism
Dr. Ellie Anderson and Dr. David Peña-Guzmán, philosophy professors and co-hosts of Overthink podcast, discuss aphorism 84 by the French moralist Francois de La Rochefoucauld from Reflections; or, Sentences and Moral Maxims. They close-read the aphorism, discussing the nuances of the original French as well as the form of the aphorism itself. What is the spirit of friendship that La Rochefoucauld is espousing in this aphorism? Graphics and editing by Aaron Morgan Enjoy our work?
