Canonics - The Tests of Truth: The Five Senses, Anticipations, and Feelings of Pleasure and Pain
Discussions on the "Canon of Truth" - the three sets of faculties by which we test all things to determine if they are true: (1) the faculty collectively referred to as the Five Senses, (2) the faculty of Anticipations, and (3) the Feelings of Pleasure and Pain.
Episode 218 of the Lucretius Today Podcast is now available. In this episode we address: Can an Epicurean Not Distinguish Between Greater and Lesser Pleasures and Pains?
