God, Philosophy, Universities: A History of the Catholic Philosophical Tradition
ISBN: 9781472957764 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. MacIntyre gives the reader an extremely perceptive account of the role of religion in modern culture and society as a whole. Three convictions underlie this book. The first is that an educated Catholic laity needs to understand a good deal more about Catholic philosophical thought than it does now. The warring partisans on the great issues that engage our culture and politics presuppose the truth of some philosophical theses and the falsity of others. Second, argues MacIntyre, Catholic philosophy is best understood historically, as a continuing conversation through the centuries, in which...

Marxism and Christianity
ISBN: 9780268013585 / Angielski / Miękka / 1984 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Contending that Marxism achieved its unique position in part by adopting the content and functions of Christianity, MacIntyre details the religious attitudes and modes of belief that appear in Marxist doctrine as it developed historically from the philosophies of Hegel and Feuerbach, and as it has been carried on by latter-day interpreters from Rosa Luxemburg and Trotsky to Kautsky and Lukacs. The result is a lucid exposition of Marxism and an incisive account of its persistence and continuing importance.

Alasdair Macintyre's Engagement with Marxism: Selected Writings 1953-1974
ISBN: 9781608460328 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Although Alasdair MacIntyre is best known today as the author of After Virtue (1981), he was, in the 1950s and 1960s, one of the most erudite members of Britain's Marxist Left: being a militant within, first, the Communist Party, then the New Left, and finally the heterodox Trotskyist International Socialism group. This selection of his essays on Marxism from that period aims to show that his youthful thought profoundly informed his mature ethics, and that, in the wake of the collapse of the state-capitalist regimes in Russia and Eastern Europe, the powerful and optimistic revolutionary...

After Virtue
ISBN: 9781780936253 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Highly controversial when it was first published in 1981, Alasdair MacIntyre's After Virtue has since established itself as a landmark work in contemporary moral philosophy. In this book, MacIntyre sought to address a crisis in moral language that he traced back to a European Enlightenment that had made the formulation of moral principles increasingly difficult. In the search for a way out of this impasse, MacIntyre returns to an earlier strand of ethical thinking, that of Aristotle, who emphasised the importance of 'virtue' to the ethical life. More than thirty years after its original...

Marxism and Christianity
ISBN: 9780715626733 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This volume explores the common ground between Marxism and Christianity. It argues that Marxism shares in good measure both the content and functions of Christianity and does so because it inherits it from Christianity. It details the religious attitudes and modes of belief that appear in Marxism as it developed historically from the philosophies of Hegel and Feuerbach, and as it has been carried on by its latter-day interpreters from Rosa Luxemberg and Trotsky to Kautsky and Lukacs. It sets out to show that Marxism, no less than Christianity, is subject to the historical relativity that... This volume explores the common ground between Marxism and Christianity.
