    You're interested in more videos discussing the nature of law, I take it?
    I've got something like 200 videos discussing various texts, thinkers, and issues in Ethics and the History of Philosophy arranged into various playlists

    Just found your videos last night and need to say a huge thank you. You've explained very clearly what I can never grasp in class/ through my lecture notes. I have my final year Jurisprudence exam in 2 weeks so really delighted to have this resource! Thanks again, Nathan (Ireland).

    I just want to say thank you for doing these videos. I am currently taking online classes for Ethics and Philosophy. I can read the books over, and over again, but nothing helps me to understand these theory's more, than your videos. I have used several of your videos on many different occasions, and they have assisted me in understanding things better. Once again, thank you for doing these videos!

    You're very welcome -- nice to know that these lectures can be helpful for upper-level classes as well

  • @GregoryBSadler

    Glad that there weren't too many gaps -- I'm slowly filling things in, but the history of philosophy is pretty vast

    Thank you for these. I teach in Michigan and they are very helpful to listen to - they refresh me and I like hearing how someone else orders the lectures and how they present them.

  • @GregoryBSadler

    I'm glad they're useful for you

    Helps a ton to hear someone actually teach the subject. Unlike my professor who just rambles on about what bad things president Trump has done this week, and in-turn gets my thoughts all mixed up. I read my textbook but your teaching helps to reassure my interpretation is correct. Thank you.

  • @GregoryBSadler

    Glad you like the videos! A few ideas about a dissertation on virtue? Certainly, I'm game for that

      +Danielle Nicole You're very welcome -- and thanks for that nice compliment. I can tell you this, though -- I teach classes online, and will be offering a free class on Epictetus' discourses starting in late November

    This is very well done. I just began my dissertation on natural moral law.

    • @GregoryBSadler

      Glad you enjoyed the lecture -- its a topic in which I've had some interest for quite some time.

    Thank you for making these video lectures. I take AS philosophy and ethics and they're really useful for revision and expanding on ideas at a higher level.

    Gregory, please invest on a decent camera and a very good audio system. Your lectures are amazing but your mic is not too good.

    • @GregoryBSadler
      @GregoryBSadler  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Or. . . you could volunteer to purchase one for us, rather than complaining about the quality on free videos. . . . long after we've started boosting the sound on videos.

      I'm sorry. I didn't mean to sound like complaining. It was a suggestion.

    • @GregoryBSadler
      @GregoryBSadler  10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yep -- it's actually both at the same time. Some suggestions, given context, are complaints.
      The context here is that 1) the videos are quite a bit of work; 2) they are uploaded and provided free; 3) this one is actually from roughly 2 years back - we long since started boosting sound, and 4) the only thing you're offering is entirely unsolicited advice.
      I'm glad you enjoy the videos

      hi gregory, could you please invest in a decent camera and a better audio system.
      Thanks

    • @1joaods
      @1joaods 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      why do you sound so agressive to people that actually enjoy your work and are trying to give you some advice or trying to help? i know this is a comment from five years ago but you really sounded way too agressive for a simple youtube video, if you´re not able to read suggestions without reacting poorly to them maybe you shouldn´t allow comments in the first place.
      and yes i did make an entirelly unsolicited advice just in case you try to point that out.
      really enjoyed the video, disliked your attitude.

    You might say it has several purposes. Hopefully, if human laws are well-constructed, they will help those within those political communities to progress towards their determinate goods -- and there are a number of these, of course.
    You can think of human law as the ways in which (again hopefully) the natural law, and perhaps some of the clarifications provided by the divine law are made concrete within particular human communities.
    It doesn't always work out like that, unfortunately

    Thanks... I looked at your vids one at a time.. depending on what we were currently discussing in our classes :3

    Thank you for posting this... you just don't know how much this has helped me.. Just started Law school, although they oriented us as to what to expect but I feel that it's much better to see for yourself rather than hearing it from others.. thank you so much. I learned a lot from you today.. I hope you could post more videos like this.

    Hi Gregory I am a final year student at university in England and I am doing my dissertation on virtue. I am focusing on other modules this term but i was wondering if you would mind if next term i ran a few ideas past you while i am doing it? P.S. Thank you sooo much for the videos i realllly appreciate them!!

    So when sensuality is under the control of reason it does indeed participate in the natural law? But when the inclination for sensuality deviates from reason it becomes fomes and does not belong to natural law, but still belongs to eternal law because it acts as a penalty, "depriving man of his proper dignity", for disobeying reason?

    • @GregoryBSadler
      @GregoryBSadler  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep, that's more or less it. Though it's not as if there's one single thing -- "sensuality" -- that works like some uniform block or part of the human being
