Stoicism in Dialogue with Other Philosophies

Where ideas earn their weight

These pieces set Stoic thinking alongside other traditionsโ€”not as a ranking exercise, but as a way to see what holds up when viewpoints collide.

Youโ€™ll find crossings between Eastern paradox and Western rigor, between skepticism and discipline, between quiet practice and sharp critique. The aim isnโ€™t to merge everything into one agreeable blend; itโ€™s to let differences do their work, until a thought becomes clearerโ€”or shows its limits.

A good dialogue doesnโ€™t soften conviction into politeness. It keeps it honest, and leaves room for the part that remains unresolved.
