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...

All the trains-the few that there were-stopped at all the stations. Denis knew the names of those stations by heart. Bole, Tritton, Spavin Delawarr, Knipswich for Timpany, West Bowlby, and, finally, Camlet-on-the-Water. Camlet was where he always got out, leaving the train to creep indolently onward, goodness only knew whither, into the green heart of England.

Jak wiele z jego proroctw, w których ukazał satyryczną wizję dalekiej przyszłości, ziściło się w tak krótkim czasie? Gdy w 1932 roku ukazała się powieść "Nowy wspaniały świat", zawartą w niej szokującą analizę technokratycznej dyktatury uważano za odległą wizję. Po latach pisarz rozważa, w jaki sposób zmieniły się społeczeństwa, technologia i formy rządzenia od czasu ukazania się jego słynnej dystopii. Pisze o zjawiskach społecznych, które jego zdaniem...

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...
