Adventures in Philosophy at Notre Dame
ISBN: 9780268017842 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Plato's dialogues are universally acknowledged as standing among the masterworks of the Western philosophic tradition. What most readers do not know, however, is that Plato also authored a public letter in which he unequivocally denies ever having written a work of philosophy. If Plato did not view his written dialogues as works of philosophy, how did he conceive them, and how should readers view them? In Plato's Literary Garden, Kenneth M. Sayre brings over thirty years of Platonic scholarship to bear on these questions, arguing that Plato did not intend the dialogues to serve as...

ISBN: 9780692680575 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What if you found out that you were adopted and everything you thought you knew about your family, your security, was shattered? My Secret is about my 40 year quest for truth about who I am. But, more than that, this story is about overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles to achieve a goal. My book begins when I was 7 and my 10 year-old male cousin proclaimed, "I don't have to be nice to you 'cause you're really not my cousin anyways. You're ADOPTED." I confronted my narcissistic mother with my revelation and she became furious. I soon learned that I was different, less than, and not to...

Cybernetics and the Philosophy of Mind
ISBN: 9781138825468 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book, published in 1976, presents an entirely original approach to the subject of the mind-body problem, examining it in terms of the conceptual links between the physical sciences and the sciences of human behaviour. It is based on the cybernetic concepts of information and feedback and on the related concepts of thermodynamic and communication-theoretic entropy. The foundation of the approach is the theme of continuity between evolution, learning and human consciousness. The author defines life as a process of energy exchange between organism and environment, and evolution as a...

Solitude in Society
ISBN: 9780674864764 / Angielski / Twarda / 1978 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Robert Sayre brings a special kind of literary intelligence to his study of the problem of isolation in modern society. He gives us a spirited instance of a sociological approach to literature, more specifically a Marxist approach that forcefully links a literary theme to a social fact. In contrast to the existentialist interpretation of alienation (in which isolation is the eternal dilemma of Man), a Marxist analysis interprets solitude in society as precisely a modern phenomenon, directly related to the evolution of advanced capitalism.
Sayre first discusses the notion... Robert Sayre brings a special kind of literary intelligence to his study of the problem of isolation in modern society. He gives us a spirited ins... |

The Birth of the Past
ISBN: 9781421402789 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How did people learn to distinguish between past and present? How did they come to see the past as existing in its own distinctive context? In The Birth of the Past, Zachary Sayre Schiffman explores these questions in his sweeping survey of historical thinking in the Western world. Today we automatically distinguish between past and present, labeling things that appear out of place as -anachronisms.- Schiffman shows how this tendency did not always exist and how the past as such was born of a perceived difference between past and present. Schiffman takes readers on a grand... How did people learn to distinguish between past and present? How did they come to see the past as existing in its own distinctive context? In T... |
