Das Gleiche im Verschiedenen
ISBN: 9783110247107 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 381 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Der griechische Dichter Pindar (ca. 520-440 v. Chr.) hat Preislieder fur Sieger bei antiken griechischen Sportfesten wie den Olympien verfasst. Sie geben der Forschung seit jeher Ratsel auf, insbesondere weil sie den Sieger nur am Rande zu preisen scheinen. Dass dieser Eindruck tauscht, zeigt diese Arbeit auf der Grundlage einer kulturgeschichtlichen Einbettung im Rahmen der Semiotik des Charles S. Peirce: Pindar lobt die Sieger in Liedern mit koharenter Sinnstruktur mittels einer kunstvollen Metaphorik des Sports im hochsten Mae und stellt sie als die Heroen der Gegenwart dar.

ISBN: 9780826434753 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. One of the most celebrated of Plato's ideas was that if human society was ever to function successfully then philosophers would need to become kings, or kings philosophers. In a perfect state, therefore, philosophic wisdom should be wedded to political power.

Nietzsche and the Ancient Skeptical Tradition
ISBN: 9780195368420 / Angielski / Twarda / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The impact of Nietzsche's engagement with the Greek skeptics has never before been systematically explored in a book-length work - an inattention that belies the interpretive weight scholars otherwise attribute to his early career as a professor of classical philology and to the fascination with Greek literature and culture that persisted throughout his productive academic life. Jessica N. Berry fills this gap in the literature on Nietzsche by demonstrating how an understanding of the Pyrrhonian skeptical tradition illuminates Nietzsche's own reflections on truth, knowledge, and ultimately,...

The Beginnings of Greek Mathematics
ISBN: 9789048183494 / Angielski / Miękka / 358 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When this book was first published, more than five years ago, I added an appendix on How the Pythagoreans discovered Proposition 11.5 of the 'Elements'. I hoped that this appendix, although different in some ways from the rest of the book, would serve to illustrate the kind of research which needs to be undertaken, if we are to acquire a new understanding of the historical development of Greek mathematics. It should perhaps be mentioned that this book is not intended to be an introduction to Greek mathematics for the general reader; its aim is to bring the problems associated with the early...

Desire, Practical Reason, and the Good
ISBN: 9780195382440 / Angielski / Twarda / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Most philosophers working in moral psychology and practical reason think that either the notion of "good" or the notion of "desire" have central roles to play in our understanding of intentional explanations and practical reasoning. However, philosophers disagree sharply over how we are supposed to understand the notions of "desire" and "good," how these notions relate, and whether both play a significant and independent role in practical reason. In particular, the "Guise of the Good" thesis -- the view that desire (or perhaps intention, or intentional action) always aims at the good - has...

Die Moderne Und Platon: Zwei Grundformen Europäischer Rationalität
ISBN: 9783476022455 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 596 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Positionsbestimmung. Erhebt die Aufklarung zu Recht den Anspruch, zum ersten Mal eine kritische Erkenntnisbegrundung gegeben zu haben? Der Autor geht diesem modernen Vorurteil und seinen historischen Grunden nach und zeigt, dass es angesichts eines groen Textcorpus antiker Erkenntniskritik nicht haltbar ist. Die Moderne hat nicht "die" Vernunft "entdeckt," sondern einen anderen Vernunftbegriff. Der Anspruch, allein dieser neue Vernunftbegriff garantiere Selbstbestimmung und Freiheit, hatte einen bis heute nachwirkenden Kulturbruch zur Folge. Das Buch offnet den Blick auf andere Formen der...

Vom Selbst-Verständnis in Antike und Neuzeit / Notions of the Self in Antiquity and Beyond
ISBN: 9783110205718 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 442 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Die interdisziplinare Debatte uber die Genese des autonomen Subjekts hat bisher unter weitgehender Ausblendung der Vormoderne stattgefunden. Auf diesen Mangel reagiert der vorliegende Band: In zum Teil eng miteinander vernetzten Beitragen wird die Geschichtsschreibung der Subjekts- und Selbstvorstellungen an antiken wie nachantiken Texten prazisiert und in mancher Hinsicht revidiert. Zur Debatte stehen Konzepte von Selbst und Subjekt, von Individuum, Person- und Sprecheridentitat in Rhetorik, Poetik, Philosophie und Theologie; dazu gehoren im besonderen Erscheinungsformen des "lyrischen...

Dimensions of the Logical: A Hermeneutic Inquiry
ISBN: 9783631646823 / Angielski / Twarda / 378 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Drawing on the work of Georg Misch, this work seeks to give back to the Word its original fullness of meaning. Misch's notion of a logic of life considers the Word in the plenitude of its great powers. The question of life leads the inquiries undertaken in this study via Misch's anthropological conception on to the phenomenological ontology of Martin Heidegger and Josef Koenig's investigation of 'Being and Thought'. Heidegger's quest for the meaning of Being calls for a close inspection of its linguistic foundation. 'Being' reveals itself as the original truth. It is the verbum demonstrativum...

Plato and Aristotle on Poetry
ISBN: 9780807898161 / Angielski / Miękka / 243 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is a guide to the poetics of the two Greek fountainheads of Western literary theory. Part I traces the development of Plato's great themes of inspiration and imitation but makes no attempt to reduce his disparate statements to a system. Part II demonstrates that Aristotle's Poetics embodies a powerful theory of literature that answers Plato's objections to poetry as an emotionally powerful, and therefore dangerous, communication of false opinion.

Cosmos of the Ancients: The Greek Philosophers on Myth and Cosmology
ISBN: 9781419627736 / Angielski / Miękka / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Greek philosophers lived in a time when the gods and the myths about them were very much alive, and there was no scientific evidence dismissing them. This book explores to what extent the Greeks were able to question their own mythology. This is done by examining the cosmology of their philosophers, and what roles they allowed therein for the gods. Stefan Stenudd is a Swedish author and historian of ideas, who studies the patterns of thought in creation myths.

Advent of Pluralism Ocm C
ISBN: 9780199600625 / Angielski / Twarda / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Advent of Pluralism explores how the philosophical position of pluralism - the idea, made famous by Isaiah Berlin, that values and moral codes can and will come into conflict with one another - has clear and important roots in the Classical Greek world. The book falls into three parts each of which focuses on one author and the ways in which pluralism manifests itself in his particular genre. Part I is concerned with the sophist Protagoras, who was one of the world's first philosophers and arguably the first exponent of the idea that there can be more than one perspective on truth. Part...

Madness Transformed: A Reading of Ovid's Metamorphoses
ISBN: 9780739129449 / Angielski / Miękka / 514 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Madness Transformed: A Reading of OvidOs Metamorphoses is one of the most comprehensive studies available in English of one of the most majestic and perennially appealing of Roman epics. Students and readers of all levels, from high school Latinists through seasoned Ovidians, will find something of use here as Frantantuono analyzes the work scene by scene, guiding the reader to a deeper understanding of this densely allusive poem that rivals even VirgilOs Aeneid.

Government of Self and Others: Lectures at the College de France, 1982-1983
ISBN: 9780312572921 / Angielski / Miękka / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This lecture, given by Michel Foucault at the College de France, launches an inquiry into the notion of parresia and continues his rereading of ancient philosophy. Through the study of this notion of truth-telling, of speaking out freely, Foucault re-examines Greek citizenship, showing how the courage of the truth forms the forgotten ethical basis of Athenian democracy. The figure of the philosopher king, the condemnation of writing, and Socrates' rejection of political involvement are some of the many topics of ancient philosophy revisited here.

The New Testament in the Original Greek
ISBN: 9781108007092 / Angielski / Miękka / 590 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The publication in 1881 of The New Testament in the Original Greek, by the Cambridge scholars Brooke Foss Westcott (1825 1901) and Fenton John Anthony Hort (1828 1892), marked the culmination of twenty-eight years of work and revolutionised the theory and methods of New Testament textual criticism. The editors broke with tradition and reconstructed a critical text based on the third-century uncial manuscripts Codex Vaticanus and Codex Sinaiticus, paving the way for future editions. Westcott and Hort's claim to reconstruct the 'original text' may seem extravagant today; but according to Bruce...

Practical Intelligence and the Virtues
ISBN: 9780199698448 / Angielski / Miękka / 458 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. One of the most important developments in modern moral philosophy is the resurgence of interest in the virtues. In this new book, Daniel Russell explores two important hopes for such an approach to moral thought: that starting from the virtues should cast light on what makes an action right, and that notions like character, virtue, and vice should yield a plausible picture of human psychology. Russell argues that the key to each of these hopes is an understanding of the cognitive and deliberative skills involved in the virtues. If right action is defined in terms of acting generously or...

Born in northeastern Spain during an era of momentous change for both the Empire and the Christian religion, he was well educated, well connected, and a successful member of the late Roman elite, a man fully engaged with the politics and culture of his times.

This aspect of his work was especially valued in the Middle Ages by... Aurelius Prudentius Clemens (348 ca. 406) is one of the great Christian Latin writers of late antiquity.

With particular reference to Deleuze, and drawing on Spinoza, Nietzsche and Bergson, Simone Bignall attends to a minor tradition within Western philosophy to argue that a non-imperial concept of social and political agency and a postcolonial philosophy of material transformation are embedded within aspects of poststructuralist social philosophy.Postcolonial Agency complements and balances the attention given by postcolonial theory to the revitalisation and recognition of the agency of colonised peoples. It offers new conceptual scaffolding to those who have inherited the legacy of colonial...
