In the spirit of “pamphleteering”, I wanted to put together a brochure that can be easily printed and distributed. It was also an exercise in attempting to digest key concepts of Epicurean Philosophy.
My goal was to briefly introduce Epicurus and Epicureanism in such a way as to stimulate the curiosity of the reader while maintaining the integrity of the doctrines.
Great work Al-Hakiim!
Kalosyni I think we need to encourage more people to develop handouts. Do we have a section on the forum devoted to Handouts or Brochures? If not, let's set one up somewhere under "Activism" thanks!
Al-Hakiim von Grof That looks like a good brochure! ...and perhaps AxA may want to use it (or something like it) for the Epicurean Meet-ups group he is starting.
I like this idea. I've been thinking about a one-page handout to bring to the in-person gathering. I would want it to contain at least the four-fold cure and three classes of desires. Probably some other of the principal doctrines, but stated as simply as possible. And a few of the common misunderstandings of the teaching.
Al-Hakiim von Grof, I really like the back of this brochure with the four principles and Epicurus quote. I might use something like this.
