Happiness: A History
ISBN: 9780802142894 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 560 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Today, human beings tend to think of happiness as a natural right. But they haven't always felt this way. For the ancient Greeks, happiness meant virtue. For the Romans, it implied prosperity and divine favor. For Christians, happiness was synonymous with God. Throughout history, happiness has been equated regularly with the highest human calling, the most perfect human state. Yet it's only within the past two hundred years that human beings have begun to think of happiness as not just an earthly possibility but also as an earthly entitlement, even an obligation. In this sweeping new book,...

Enemies of the Enlightenment: The French Counter-Enlightenment and the Making of Modernity
ISBN: 9780195158939 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Critics have long treated the most important intellectual movement of modern history--the Enlightenment--as if it took shape in the absence of opposition. In this groundbreaking new study, Darrin McMahon demonstrates that, on the contrary, contemporary resistance to the Enlightenment was a major cultural force, shaping and defining the Enlightenment itself from the moment of inception, while giving rise to an entirely new ideological phenomenon-what we have come to think of as the "Right." McMahon skillfully examines the Counter-Enlightenment, showing that it was an extensive, international,...

Rethinking Modern European Intellectual History
ISBN: 9780199769247 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Modern European intellectual history is thriving as never before. It has recovered from an era in which other trends like social and cultural history threatened to marginalize it. But in spite of enjoying a contemporary renaissance, the field has lost touch with the tradition of debating why and how to study ideas and thus lacks both a well-articulated set of purposes and a range of arguments for exactly what it means to pursue those purposes. This volume revives that tradition. Recalling past attempts to showcase the diversity and differentiation of modern European intellectual history,...

Interpreting the Ancien Régime
ISBN: 9780729411448 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The work of David Bien, one of America’s foremost historians of eighteenth-century France, transformed our understanding of the ancien régime and the origins of the French Revolution. The editors bring together for the first time his most important articles, other previously unpublished essays and an interview transcript. Bien’s empirically-grounded approach made him a central figure in the ‘revisionist’ debates on the origins of the French Revolution. His re-reading of the Calas affair as an anomaly in a growing trend of tolerance (rather than a sign of widespread bigotry among an...

Genealogies of Genius
ISBN: 9781137497659 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 191 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The essays in this volume seek to examine the uses to which concepts of genius have been put in different cultures and times. Collectively, they are designed to make two new statements. First, seen in historical and comparative perspective, genius is not a natural fact and universal human constant that has been only recently identified by modern science, but instead a categorical mode of assessing human ability and merit. Second, as a concept with specific definitions and resonances, genius has performed specific cultural work within each of the societies in which it had a historical...
