On Not Founding Rome: The Virtue of Hesitation
ISBN: 9781606086100 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description: This book is an attempt to critically embrace a tradition--a culture--in which the author was formed and against which he has often found himself in resistance, using academic disciplines in which he is well versed but about which he is deeply suspicious. This book began to come together as a book in a series of lectures on the history of Western thought at Shenzhen University in the People's Republic of China, an opportunity to cultivate disciplined criticism that might afford a second look at traditions behind the West which are being embraced all too quickly. In a time of...

Four Truths
ISBN: 9781610974493 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 74 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Four Truths is not a traditional scholarly work. It consists of three short stories and a verse drama built around the four noble truths of Buddhism--each followed by a prose reflection in the form of a series of theses. The text is complemented by thirteen images from a series of ink brush paintings done by Macao artist Debby Sou Vai Keng in response to the book. It is an invitation to conversation rather than a systematic philosophical or theological argument--though it is an invitation in the scholastic tradition of academic theses that will appeal to students of comparative religion and...

Between Freedom and Necessity: An Essay on the Place of Value
ISBN: 9789042013025 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 131 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This extended essay joins an old conversation at the intersection of freedom and necessity. Though it takes place at the beginning of the twenty-first century by the "Christian" reckoning that has become an integral part of European identity, it will at times read like a conversation between classical Greece and nineteenth-century Europe. The cast consists of characters drawn from Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, and Plato as well as the authors themselves - Plato, Aristotle, Locke, Hume, Kant, Kierkegaard, MacIntyre, and Nussbaum. Some of these writers have been associated with displaced,...

ISBN: 9789042007765 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book takes up the philosophical task described by Samuel Taylor Coleridge and F.D. Maurice as digging toward the common humanity that is the ground of value. The book is an essay in philosophy defined by time (its focal point is the nineteenth century), space (its focal point is Britain), and persons (it is concerned especially with Maurice's contribution to social theory).

The third explores a range of...

To Forget It All and Begin Anew: Reconciliation in Occupied Germany, 1944-1954
ISBN: 9781442613997 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Germany's transition from Nazism to peaceful, if at times reluctant, integration into the western and Soviet spheres during the decade immediately following the Second World War is one of the most remarkable events of the twentieth century. Shattered relations between Germans and their wartime enemies and victims had rendered prospects for peaceful relations between these groups unimaginable, or a dream belonging to the distant future. However, numerous grassroots initiatives found varying degrees of success in fostering reconciliation. Drawing on underutilized archival materials,...

In this book you will find Zdanys' best writing yet, 12-line lyric poems that speak clearly through vivid multi-sensual imagery and the textured language of a master poet.

Added to the collaborative art of poet and painter is the book itself, designed by Regina Schroeder, so this...

A Guest Giving Way Like Ice Melting
ISBN: 9780982440575 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 62 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Grappling with the challenge of Wallace Stevens' masterpiece, "Thirteen ways of looking at a blackbird," Steve Schroeder and Sou Vai Keng combine the poet's craft, philosophical ways of thought and the practice of Sinology to reconfigure and metamorphose Laotse's wisdom book into a poem in totally natural English. The product speaks to our world today with its maddened consumerism, war as national habit, the eternal questions of death and creativity, and the struggle to be rather than just exist. This elegant and beautiful little book helps us understand some of the eternal questions-and some...
