This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.

This video focuses on Epicurus' works in moral philosophy, and examines his discussion of two distinct sorts of pleasures -- moving or kinetic pleasures, caused by some sort of change on the part of the one experiencing it (e.g. drinking wine), and static pleasures, consisting in a state of rest or satiety, free from pain, fears, and troubles.
