COF Olavo Podcast

This extract is the opening of a philosophy course taught by an individual who, at the outset, sets out the expectations, structure and purpose of the course. He stresses the importance of a shared commitment to the pursuit of knowledge for its own sake, especially given the perceived lack of philosophical engagement in Brazil. He also emphasizes the importance of community and finding like-minded individuals to support and encourage each other's philosophical development. By framing the course in terms of building intellectual companionship, he fosters a sense of shared purpose and collective growth, promoting a supportive environment for learning.
