Heracles, Jesus Christ and Lord Vader at the crossroads The ethical message of the method LEGO-LOGOS
Abstract
The article is devoted to the myth of ‘Hercules at the crossroads’
and its ethical aspects. The myth was created in circles
of Pythagoreans, and was kind of incentives to the right – according
to the Pythagoreans – way of life. The echoes of the myth we
can find in Plato’s philosophy, the life of Christ, as well as in popular
movies such as Star Wars or The Matrix.
The author of article adapts the myth of Hercules in their philosophical
workshops ΛΕΓΩ-ΛΟΓΟΣ (LEGO–LOGOS). During the
workshops ΛΕΓΩ-ΛΟΓΟΣ, participants read the texts of various
philosophers: Plato’s, Aristotle’s, Cicero’s, Marcus Aurelius’,
and later thinkers’: Leonardo Da Vinci’s, Descartes’ and others’.
All texts are selected by a philosophical key, with a strong ethical message in the background built on the canvas of the myth
of Hercules at the crossroads. This idea is presented by the author
in order to illustrate its meaning with the help of classical philosophy
and modern, philosophically saturated movies.
