Individualism and Community
ISBN: 9783031986109 / Angielski / Twarda / 2025 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book is a philosophical investigation of the concepts of honor and authenticity, informed by the paradoxes of the individual-community continuum. To achieve this difficult balancing act, the author refines our concepts of both honor and authenticity. Raymond Angelo Belliotti begins by investigating honor as a moral and social framework, analyzing its historical significance, particularly within the Roman aristocracy, and its portrayal in The Godfather. He then turns to military honor codes, exploring their ethical implications and challenges. From there, the discussion transitions to...

There are uncanny connections between nine baseball greats and the great thinkers of the West. This book offers a very practical application of Western philosophy by examining these icons of American sport and culture.The intensity and single-mindedness of Ted Williams breathes life into Camus' Sisyphus; Billy Martin's maniacal competitiveness recalls Niccolo Machiavelli's take on politics, which he characterized as a zero-sum game; the homespun philosophy of Satchel Paige echoes the wisdom of Marcus Aurelius; and the many facets of Joe DiMaggio's personality cry out for the resolution that...

Niccolo Machiavelli: The Laughing Lion and the Strutting Fox
ISBN: 9780739130636 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Machiavelli is usually understood as a thinker who separated morality from politics or who championed Roman, pagan morality over conventional, Christian morality. Belliotti argues, instead, that Machiavelli's innovation is his understanding of the perhaps irresolvable moral conflicts that exist within political leaders who fulfill the duties of their offices while accepting the authority of absolute moral principles. Machiavelli is a moral pessimist who insists that politicians must 'risk their souls' when performing their public responsibilities. Politicians and military leaders must dirty...

Machiavelli's Secret: The Soul of the Statesman
ISBN: 9781438457208 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The political statesman, Machiavelli tells us, must love his country more than his own soul. Political leaders must often transgress clear moral principles, using means that are typically wrong, even horrifying. What sort of inner life does a leader who "uses evil well" experience and endure? The conventional view held by most scholars is that a Machiavellian statesman lacks any "inwardness" because Machiavelli did not delve into the state of mind one might find in a politician with "dirty hands." While such a leader would bask in his glory, the argument goes, we can only wonder at the...

Jesus or Nietzsche : How Should We Live Our Lives?
ISBN: 9789042036598 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book reconstructs the cornerstones of Jesus's moral teachings about how to lead a good, even exemplary, human life. It does so in a way that is compatible with the most prominent, competing versions of the historical Jesus. The work also contrast Jesus' understanding of the best way to lead our lives with that of Friedrich Nietzsche. Both Jesus and Nietzsche were self-consciously moral revolutionaries. Jesus refashioned the imperatives of Jewish law to conform to what he was firmly convinced was the divine will. Nietzsche aspired to transvalue the dominant values of his time -which...

Stalking Nietzsche
ISBN: 9780313307003 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This introduction to Nietzsche's thought is geared to those who approach his work with grave skepticism. Belliotti begins each chapter with a brief exposition of a broad theme in Nietzsche's work, raising important questions of interpretation. He then turns the discussion into a dialogue between two characters who, in the topics they address, exemplify rather than merely explain Nietzsche's broad themes. In this manner, "Stalking Nietzsche" focuses on the connection between philosophy and living: How can reading Nietzsche change one's life? What links are there between accepting...

Shakespeare and Philosophy : Lust, Love, and Law
ISBN: 9789042035973 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 227 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book is an interdisciplinary work that weaves literary interpretation, legal theory, and philosophical doctrine about sex and love into a coherent mosaic in the context of two of Shakespeare's plays: "The Merchant of Venice "and "Measure for Measure." In the process, the work advances literary interpretations of the plays including character studies of some of the main protagonists. The aim is partly theoretical but mostly practical: to demonstrate what we can learn about living a robustly meaningful and significant human life by taking Shakespeare's work seriously from contemporary...

Posthumous Harm: Why the Dead are Still Vulnerable
ISBN: 9780739185995 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Reasonable people agree that, other things being equal, it is immoral to fail to fulfill deathbed promises, to maliciously defame the dead, and to mistreat corpses. But philosophical controversy swirls over why such acts are morally wrong. Are these acts wrong only because they violate moral norms against breaking promises, lying, and abusing others? Are these acts morally deficient because they wrong the dead? Are these acts morally wrong because they harm or injure the dead? Or are these acts blameworthy because they wrong, harm, or injure those who survive the deaths? Who are the genuine...
