21 January 2013Beautiful
This is a very good book capturing the real meaning of leisure and not just free time.
3 January 2011Indispensable Look At Culture and Philosophy
An incredibly beautiful and important book on the need for and nature of leisure and philosophy.
12 September 2008An Important Book
I read this book for the first time about ten years ago, and have just re-read it.
30 December 2007Killing the false Idol "Work" (Dru translation)
Pieper makes the argument that freedom and philosophy are closely related; bad philosophy can lead to enslavement of oneself or of societies as a whole.
24 August 2007An antitode for post-modern man and his scepticism
I am no philosopher, but I have always loved Plato and have with Pieper's help learned to appreciate Aristotle again.
26 March 2007Useful Leisure Time Vs. Wasting Time
Josef Pieper's LEISURE: THE BASIS OF CULTURE is a short but poignant commentary on the difference between joy and idleness.
