전기 및 작가의 여정
The School of Life emerged in 2008 not as a single author but as a collaborative educational venture founded by Swiss-born British philosopher Alain de Botton alongside colleagues from the arts, education, and cultural sectors, including curator Sophie Howarth and a group of psychotherapists, artists, and educators. What began as an institute dedicated to understanding and improving emotional intelligence in London has evolved into a British multinational social media company and publishing house that addresses life's most pressing psychological and philosophical questions. The organization's creation represented a turning point in making therapeutic and philosophical wisdom accessible to a general audience, departing from academic traditions to speak directly to everyday struggles with anxiety, relationships, work, and meaning.
