Michael Tremblay | Stoicism's Place in Hellenistic Philosophy

<p>About the Guest </p> <p>Michael Tremblay is a PhD. student in philosophy at Queen’s University, Kingston. Before going to Queen’s University he completed a B.A. and M.A. in philosophy at Carleton University in Ottawa. During his time at Carleton he wrote a Master’s thesis on the Stoic Epictetus. His PhD work continues to examine Stoic ethics, and the question of how the Stoics thought we should cultivate our virtue. </p> <p>Michael’s main interest is in ancient philosophy, specifically moral education in the Stoics. He’s fascinated by the Hellenistic conception of philosophy as a way of life, which is to be practiced in order to achieve virtue and happiness. He is also interested in philosophy as a skill or craft, and how training and practice factor into becoming a better philosopher.</p> <p>Beyond philosophy, Michael is passionate about martial arts and competes regularly in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and wrestling.</p> <p>Guest Links</p> <p>Michael's Website: <a href="https://www.tremblaymichael.com/">CLICK HERE</a></p> <p>Academia: <a href="https://queensu.academia.edu/MichaelTremblay">CLICK HERE</a></p> <p>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-tremblay-01542713a/">CLICK HERE</a></p> <p>Simon Drew Links</p> <p>Patreon: <a href="http://patreon.com/simonjedrew">patreon.com/simonjedrew</a></p> <p>Coaching: <a href="http://simonjedrew.com/coaching/">simonjedrew.com/coaching/</a></p> <p>Practical Stoic Mastermind: <a href="http://facebook.com/groups/practicalstoicmastermind">facebook.com/groups/practicalstoicmastermind</a></p> <p>Facebook: <a href="http://facebook.com/simonjedrew">facebook.com/simonjedrew</a></p> <p>Instagram: <a href="http://instagram.com/simonjedrew">instagram.com/simonjedrew</a></p> <p>LinkedIn: <a href="http://linkedin.com/in/simonjedrew">linkedin.com/in/simonjedrew</a></p> <p>Website: <a href="http://simonjedrew.com">simonjedrew.com</a></p>
