| The author of Existential Comics offers some advice: https://existentialcomics.com/blog/1/How_to_study_philosophy... I like courses or philosophical works, which focus on a common themes, common threads. That allows one to see more connections across different thinkers. One instance of this is John Vervaeke's Awaking from the meaning crisis (which isn't only philosophy, but also cognitive science). Other courses like that are those from John Searle (philosophy of language, philosophy of mind). Hubert Dreyfus has a course on existentialism in literature and film. Thinking of it, there is also a channel called Like Stories Of Old. The maker publishes video-essays, which are often philosophical in tone and reference existential thinkers like Kierkegaard. My own journey into philosophy started with Wittgenstein (apart from an introduction in Greek Philosophy in high school). |
