Ends and Means: An Inquiry into the Nature of Ideals
ISBN: 9781412847445 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Contemporary intellectuals still struggle over the relationship of ends to means, especially in political discourse. Pacifism is still an important topic today, as terrorism and dictatorial states abound. Many will find solace in Ends and Means, while others will find the book only a case study of the relationship of ethics to politics. Aldous Huxley examines common issues in a unique fashion. How can the regression in charity through which we are living, and for which each one of us is in some measure responsible, be halted and reversed? How can existing society be transformed into the ideal...

Complete Essays: Aldous Huxley, 1936-1938, Volume IV
ISBN: 9781566633949 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this fourth volume of a projected six, Huxley registers his deep misgivings about the course of history in the late 1930s as the world moved toward a second global war. Many of his essays reflect his continuing interest in the conventions of popular culture as well as the philosophy of science and history, particularly as they inform developments in art and politics. But his larger concerns oscillate between empirical science and the particulars of social history, on the one hand, and his need for a grounding of absolute truth that would transcend both. His critique of politics and the...

Aldous Huxley (1894–1963), pisarz urodzony w Anglii, mieszkający od lat trzydziestych XX wieku w USA, najlepiej znany ze słynnej antyutopii Nowy wspaniały świat (1932), stanowi ciekawy przykład ewolucji w zakresie stosunku do sfery duchowej. W młodości zdecydowany agnostyk i prześmiewca, z biegiem lat coraz bardziej angażował się w tematykę religijną. Od lat czterdziestych XX wieku uchodził za „mistyka”. Nigdy nie stał się członkiem żadnej grupy religijnej. Choć sympatyzował z wedantą, zenem, a także z chrześcijańskim mistycyzmem, był sceptyczny wobec...
