Unconscious Memory
ISBN: 9788027285228 / Angielski / Miękka / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The author of this book, the British writer and thinker Samuel Butler, was a proponent of the theory of evolution but rejected the Darwinian idea of the selection of species. As a result of his attempts to unite the theory of evolution with his philosophy of humanity, Butler wrote a series of works from the position of a philosopher who looked for biological foundations for his work. He tried to find a bridge to a philosophy of life that sought a scientific basis for religion and endowed a naturalistically conceived universe with a soul. In this book, we have a chance to try Butler's...

Unconscious Memory
ISBN: 9781540377098 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book essentially restated the argument of Life and Habit, stating that human variation, or 'progress', is due to 'strokes of cunning - to a sense of need, and to study of the past and present which have given shrewd people a key with which to unlock the chambers of the future'. Butler believed that heredity was a mode of memory, and instinct was inherited memory. A world shaped by natural selection appeared to Butler to be 'a world of chance and blindness', which he simply could not accept, and he seized on what he saw as the wilful aspect of the Lamarckian mechanism of evolution to...

Excerpt: ...church is even more floridly ambitious in its abundance of carving and gilding than the many other ambitious altar-pieces with which the Canton Valais abounds. The Apostles are receiving the Holy Ghost on the first storey of the composition, and they certainly are receiving it with an overjoyed alacrity and hilarious ecstasy of allegria spirituale which it would not be easy to surpass. Above the village, reaching almost to the limits beyond which there is no cultivation, there stands a series of chapels like those I have been describing at Saas-F

Setting out to make his fortune in a far-off country, a young traveller discovers the remote and beautiful land of Erewhon and is given a home among its extraordinarily handsome citizens. But their visitor soon discovers that this seemingly ideal community has its faults--here crime is treated indulgently as a malady to be cured, while illness, poverty and misfortune are cruelly punished, and all machines have been superstitiously destroyed after a bizarre prophecy.
