Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Description: This work raises for the contemporary reader the ancient and abiding question of the nature and meaning of human virtue. In Part 1, it draws upon Plato, Aristotle, and Cicero and the works of Renaissance Christian humanists who were influenced by them, such as Pico, Vives, and Erasmus. The moral act guided by the cardinal virtues and the good is seen as the key to human happiness and the formation of character.

ISBN: 9781498238014 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Metaphysics and the Modern World makes the abiding questions of the nature of the self, world, and God available for the modern reader.

The Art of Humane Education: A Passion for Resistance:
ISBN: 9780801440397 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In The Art of Humane Education, Donald Phillip Verene presents a new statement of the classical and humanist ideals that he believes should guide education in the liberal arts and sciences. These ideals are lost, he contends, in the corporate atmosphere of the contemporary university, with its emphasis on administration, faculty careerism, and student performance. Verene addresses questions of how and what to teach and offers practical suggestions for the conduct of class sessions, the relationship between teacher and student, the interpretation of texts, and the meaning and use of a canon of...

The New Art of Autobiography
ISBN: 9780198239000 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this, the first full-length study of Vico's highly original autobiography, Professor Verene discusses its place in the history of the genre. The author views the autobiography as a work in which Vico applies the principles of human history discussed in his New Science, making the telling of his own life an application and verification of his philosophy. He places Vico's book within the general development of the genre, considering it in relation to Augustine's Confessions, Descartes's Discourse, and Rousseau's Confessions. The author shows Vico to be not only the founder of the philosophy...

Philosophy and the Return to Self-Knowledge
ISBN: 9780300069990 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This book contends that both Anglo-American analytic philosophy and Continental philosophy have lost their vitality, and it offers an alternative in their place. Donald Phillip Verene advocates a renewal of contemporary philosophy through a return to its origins in Socratic humanism and to the notions of civil wisdom, eloquence, and prudence as guides to human action. Verene critiques reflection--the dominant form of philosophical thought that developed from Descartes and Locke--and shows that reflection is not only a philosophical doctrine but is also connected to the life-form of...

Vico's New Science: A Philosophical Commentary
ISBN: 9781501700163 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Giambattista Vico (1668 1744) is best remembered for his major work, the New Science (Scienza nuova), in which he sets forth the principles of humanity and gives an account of the stages common to the development of all societies in their historical life. Controversial at the time of its publication in 1725, the New Science has come to be seen as the most ambitious attempt before Comte at a comprehensive science of human society and the most profound analysis of the philosophy of history prior to Hegel. Despite the fundamental importance of the New... Giambattista Vico (1668 1744) is best remembered for his major work, the New Science (Scienza nuova), in which he sets forth the ... |

Reputed to be one of the most difficult yet rewarding works of philosophical literature, Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit has long been in need of an introduction for English readers.

A glossary of sixty of Hegel's terms, discussed in both their original German and English equivalents, is included.

Knowledge of Things Human and Divine: Vico's New Science and Finnegans Wake
ISBN: 9780300099584 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This is the first book to examine in full the interconnections between Giambattista Vico's new science and James Joyce's Finnegans Wake. Maintaining that Joyce is the greatest modern "interpreter" of Vico, Donald Phillip Verene demonstrates how images from Joyce's work offer keys to Vico's philosophy. Verene presents the entire course of Vico's philosophical thought as it develops in his major works, with Joyce's words and insights serving as a guide. The book devotes a chapter to each period of Vico's thought, from his early orations on education to his anti-Cartesian metaphysics and his...

"This work is a full interpretation of Giambattista Vico's thought, based primarily on his major work, the New Science, and on his earlier Latin writings. It takes its beginning point from Vico's own claim that his conception of 'imaginative universals' is the 'master key' of his New Science. . . .Verene traces the notion of fantasia in Vico's writings, devoting a chapter each to Vico's interpretation of truth, imaginative universals, memory, science, rhetoric, and wisdom and barbarism."
