99 μαθήματα σοφίας για μια ευτυχισμένη ζωή εδώ και τώρα

Rate this book
Εκτός από λαμπρός συγγραφέας, δραματουργός και αμφισβητίας, ο Όσκαρ Γουάιλντ θεωρείται ο καλύτερος δημιουργός αφορισμών της σύγχρονης ιστορίας. Οι διάσημοι συλλογισμοί που συμπύκνωνε σε μία και μόνη φράση είναι ανατρεπτικοί και βαθυστόχαστοι μαζί.

Ο συγγραφέας του "Νίτσε: 99 μαθήματα καθημερινής φιλοσοφίας" παίρνει 99 μαργαριτάρια σοφίας από τον άνθρωπο που, ακριβώς επειδή η ζωή του ήταν επικεντρωμένη γύρω στις απολαύσεις, γνώρισε όλες τις ακρότητες της ανθρώπινης ψυχής, και μεταφέρει τα μηνύματά του σε καταστάσεις σημερινές για να μας διδάξει πώς να αντιμετωπίζουμε τα προβλήματα και να απολαμβάνουμε τη ζωή γουλιά γουλιά.

Son píldoras que a veces me parecieron superficiales aunque siempre se puede sacar algo de provech0 y me quedo con las cosas que creo que me pueden servir, aun así probaré otro de autor para ver por donde va, lo que más me chirrió es que a veces pone a Oscar Wilde como demasiado superficial

There is not even the slightest reason for this book to exist. Just nonsense (and I'm not talking about Oscar Wilde's quotes).

Οι αφορισμοί του Όσκαρ Ουάιλντ τον κάνουν δικαίως να θεωρείται ο καλύτερος δημιουργός αφορισμών της σύγχρονης ιστορίας. Όσο και αν διαφωνούμε με τις θέσεις του μερικές φορές, δεν παύουν να αποτελούν τροφή για σκέψη του κάθε ανθρώπου που προσπαθεί να αναπτυχθεί πνευματικά. Ενώ όμως τήθενται μερικοί από τους βαθυστόχαστους αφορισμούς, ο σχολιασμός τους είναι ρηχός και πολλές φορές σχετικά ασχετος.

Παρόλο που δεν μου αρέσει ο Όσκαρ Ουάιλντ αυτά τα αποφθέγματα κρύβουν αρκετό ενδιαφέρον. Το βιβλίο είναι μια σύντομη υπενθύμιση για την τρόπο τοποθέτησης των στόχων μας στη ζωή.

«La vita non è complicata, siamo noi a complicarla. La vita è semplice, e la semplicità è sempre la cosa giusta.
I problemi complessi hanno in realtà una soluzione facile perché, come ci ricorda Oscar, la vita è molto più semplice di quello che immaginiamo. Siamo noi a rendere difficile ciò che non lo è. Per questa ragione, se vogliamo essere felici, dobbiamo smetterla di tessere in maniera confusa i fili della nostra
esistenza.».


4,5 ⭐️ Allan Percy con I suoi libri dei 99 consigli mi sta aiutando molto a prendere la vita così com’è. In questo, l'esempio di Wilde ci insegna che si può avere un'esistenza sofisticata anche nelle circostanze più difficili, perché l'arte di saper vivere consiste nel decidere come vogliamo che sia il nostro mondo. Se apprezzeremo la bellezza e coltiveremo la leggerezza, saremo un esempio di savoir vivre che contagerà chi ci starà vicino.

Κριτική στα Ελληνικά πιο κάτω...
Maybe I'm not the best judge of the book because self-help books are not my kind of read, but... Although Oscar Wilde's puns are sharp, clever, poignant, full of wit and irony, the author's comments are either oversimplified either completely unrelated to the original meaning or context. In all honesty, I can't see any reason for this book's existence...

Βασικά αγόρασα αυτό το βιβλίο χωρίς να το σκεφτώ και πολύ, διότι έχω μια αδυναμία σε αυτούς τους καταραμένους Ιρλανδούς της Βικτωριανής εποχής και ο Όσκαρ Ουάϊλντ ήταν τεράστιος χαρακτήρας και μέγας ατακαδόρος. Ωστόσο ενώ τα αποφθέγματα του ίδιου του Ουάϊλντ είναι εξαιρετικά πνευματώδη, ο συγγραφέας τα αποκόπτει εντελώς από το πλαίσιο στο οποίο ειπώθηκαν, τα υπερ-απλοποιεί ή συχνά τα σχόλιά του είναι εντελώς άσχετα. Ακόμα και για τους ανθρώπους που τους αρέσουν αυτού του είδους τα βιβλία, δεν έχω καταλάβει τι μπορεί να αποκομίσουν από το συγκεκριμένο. Σχόλια χωρίς νόημα ή απλώς ρηχά και φλύαρα.

Λέει ας πούμε ο Όσκαρ Ουάϊλντ: " Δεν ταξιδεύω ποτέ χωρίς το ημερολόγιό μου. Πάντα πρέπει να έχεις μαζί σου κάτι συγκλονιστικό να διαβάζεις στο τρένο".

Και το σχόλιο του Άλαν Πέρσυ πάει κάπως έτσι: " Για όσους δεν έχουν λεφτά ή όρεξη για να πάνε στον ψυχαναλυτή, η τήρηση προσωπικού ημερολογίου είναι ένας θαυμάσιος τρόπος να ψάχνουν μέσα τους και να αποκαλύπτουν επιθυμίες και κίνητρα των οποίων δεν είχαν καν συνείδηση.
Παρ΄ότι ο πυρετός των μπλογκ μοιάζει να έχει εκτοπίσει το παλιό ημερολόγιο με το γυαλιστερό δέσιμο και την κλειδαριά, εξακολουθεί να υπάρχει μια μαγεία που τη χαρίζουν μόνο το μολύβι και το χαρτί.
Απλές οδηγίες για την τήρηση προσωπικού ημερολογίου: ......"

Τι σχέση έχει το απόφθεγμα με την ερμηνεία; Είναι σαν να πιάνεται ο συγγραφέας από μία λέξη και να τυρβάζει περί ότι του κατέβει! Όλο το βιβλίο είναι γραμμένο στο ίδιο πνεύμα!

2 αστεράκια απλά γιατί δεν μου πάει η καρδιά να βάλω χαμηλότερη βαθμολογία σε ένα βιβλίο που έχει γραμμένο το όνομα του μεγάλου Όσκαρ Ουάϊλντ στο εξώφυλλο!

There is something that anyone must have in mind about this book . The book is good . But the thing is that the one with Nietzsche was way better . Nietzsche tries to teach you a different mind set in order to deal with the situations of your life which bring you difficulties or disorders . Oscar Wild was a smart man and extraordinary personality but i don't know if he can help . He just try to tell you that life is nice and you must enjoy every moment . For some people is not possible though. So the thing is what you do when you can not enjoy the moment . That's why i believe Nietzsche's book was way better .
The good thing about Oscar Wild is that some of his quotes are very inspiring . So because it's not a big book , you can spend some time reading it and try to gain something from Oscar Wild's personality .

O título é uma bela jogada de marketing, que funciona. Partindo da premissa de 99 máximas de Oscar Wilde, o autor embasado em vários outros autores cria um livro de auto ajuda. As máximas são boas, mas não passa da boa e velha auto ajuda otimista mascarada.

The quotes of Oscar Wilde were witty but the review is about the book's contribution (to me and generally to Literature), so the writer's view is nothing new or deep. On the contrary, the whole book is a very simplified approach of Wilde's sayings.

"Wilde per demoralizzati"
Comprato chiaramente per il titolo. È stata una lettura piacevole e leggera.
Si tratta di 99 consigli o insegnamenti ispirati al pensiero e all'etica dello scrittore e artista irlandese Oscar Wilde, elaborati da un esperto in miglioramento personale proveniente dalla Spagna chiamato Allan Percy. Tuttavia, Oscar Wilde non è l'unica ispirazione del libro: ci sono diversi riferimenti ad altri scrittori, artisti, studi scientifici e, soprattutto, al buddismo.
L'obiettivo del libro è insegnare il piacere del buon vivere: godere di ogni momento, apprezzare le piccole emozioni e la semplicità della vita.

Título foi uma boa jogada de marketing, mas o que o leitor recebe é diferente.

São 99 frases de Oscar Wilde, em sua maioria excelentes, atestando a grande habilidade dele como frasista e provocador.

Porém, o que fica totalmente abaixo da expectativa são os comentários do autor Allan Percy a essas frases. Suas reflexões geral são superficiais, lugares-comuns irritantes, e algumas vezes sequer guardam relação com o real sentido da frase usada como tema do capítulo.

O livro vale exclusivamente pelas frases de Wilde, pela pequena biografia contida no final, e por algumas histórias de outros autores que Percy coloca em seus comentários.

Um livro curto que contém frases de diversas obras de Oscar Wilde. Cada uma das frases é comentada individualmente, o autor faz ponderações e provocações muito pertinentes a respeito das mesmas. A obra inteira é um convite ao mergulho na obra de Oscar Wilde, mas não só dele, afinal o livro é repleto de boas referências que o tornam ainda mais atrativo.

In addition to helping me practice my Portuguese, this book was filled with golden nuggets of information. I read one “pill” per day on average. I would really rate it 3.5 stars based on readability and take aways. I much preferred “Kafka para sobrecarregados” to this one. Although both were good.

Útil para apreciar algunos aspectos de la vida como un buen sibarita. Toca muy distintos temas como la amistad, la honestidad, el humor, la moral... a modo de Platón moderno, se van relatando conversaciones, citas o aforismos de Wilde que sirven como ilustración de la visión de la vida que tenía el gran autor irlandés.

100 massime per... Migliorarsi? Il libro in sé non é brutto, ma molte cose, secondo me, cozzano tra di loro. Alcuni pensieri, altissimi e molto acuti, da seguire appena si esce di casa; altri... bhe, boh, new age, buddismo e altre cose mischiate.

I have no doubt that Mr. Wilde doesn't like at all this book. It's a simple group of great sentences without a porpose

Um livro que apresenta diversas frases e trechos de obras do Oscar Wilde. Com base nisso há uma breve discussão sobre a frase ou o tema. São várias reflexões interessantes e dá pra ter um gosto do quão Oscar Wilde foi impressionante. O único ponto que às vezes o autor me parece sair um pouco do contexto da frase. Recomendo o livro. Leitura leve e bem legal.

"Hey, let me take some quotes from a famous author and write some bs commentary about it! That surely will produce something interesting."

Well, it didn't. This book was so boring and useless that it took me almost a day to read it (and with less than 200 pages and a giant font size, that's saying something). I really don't know how this book ended up on my shelf, but I know damn well how I will get rid of it.

Πολύ καλό. Περιέχει τα "αποστάγματα ζωής" μέσα από την ιδιοσυγκρασία του Όσκαρ Ουάιλντ. Κυνικά, αληθινά, δύσκολα αλλά προπάντων βγαλμένα μέσα από τη ζωή. Πολύ καλά δομημένο, διαβάζεται εύκολα και γρήγορα.

O carte placuta care ne invata prin cele 99 de pilule de intelepciune cum sa ne bucuram de o viata goala de prejudecati, frustrari si neputinte prin indepartarea mastilor ce nu sunt demne de ceea ce suntem prin constiinta.

"Nietzsche para estresados" was better that this one for sure, although I love Oscar Wilde's eccentric personality and aphorisms...
