ISBN: 9780394711065 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Madness, sexuality, power, knowledge--are these facts of life or simply parts of speech? In a series of works of astonishing brilliance, historian Michel Foucault excavated the hidden assumptions that govern the way we live and the way we think.
The Archaeology of Knowledge begins at the level of -things aid- and moves quickly to illuminate the connections between knowledge, language, and action in a style at once profound and personal.

ISBN: 9780394713403 / Angielski / Miękka / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Michel Foucault was one of the most influential philosophical thinkers in the contemporary world, someone whose work has affected the teaching of half a dozen disciplines ranging from literary criticism to the history of criminology.

The Reader contains selections from each area of Foucault's work as well as a wealth of previously unpublished writings, including important material written especially for this volume,...

ISBN: 9780394719856 / Angielski / Miękka / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Nietzsche called The Gay Science -the most personal of all my books.- It was here that he first proclaimed the death of God--to which a large part of the book is devoted--and his doctrine of the eternal recurrence.
Walter Kaufmann's commentary, with its many quotations from previously untranslated letters, brings to life Nietzsche as a human being and illuminates his philosophy. The book contains some of Nietzsche's most sustained discussions of art and morality, knowledge and truth, the intellectual conscience and the origin of logic. Most of the book was written just before... Nietzsche called The Gay Science -the most personal of all my books.- It was here that he first proclaimed the death of God--to which a large p...

Power/Knowledge: Selected Interviews and Other Writings, 1972-1977
ISBN: 9780394739540 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Michel Foucault has become famous for a series of books that have permanently altered our understanding of many institutions of Western society. He analyzed mental institutions in the remarkable Madness and Civilization; hospitals in The Birth of the Clinic; prisons in Discipline and Punish; and schools and families in The History of Sexuality. But the general reader as well as the specialist is apt to miss the consistent purposes that lay behind these difficult individual studies, thus losing sight of the broad social vision and political aims that unified them.
Now, in this superb set... Michel Foucault has become famous for a series of books that have permanently altered our understanding of many institutions of Western society. He an...

The Care of the Self
ISBN: 9780394741550 / Angielski / Miękka / 279 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Michel Foucault takes us into the first two centuries of our own era, into the Golden Age of Rome, to reveal a subtle but decisive break from the classical Greek vision of sexual pleasure. He skillfully explores the whole corpus of moral reflection among philosophers (Plutarch, Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius, Seneca) and physicians of the era, and uncovers an increasing mistrust of pleasure and growing anxiety over sexual activity and its consequences.

In this sequel to The History of Sexuality, Volume I: An Introduction, the brilliantly original French thinker who died in 1984 gives an analysis of how the ancient Greeks perceived sexuality. Throughout The Uses of Pleasure Foucault analyzes an irresistible array of ancient Greek texts on eroticism as he tries to answer basic questions: How in the West did sexual experience become a moral issue? And why were other appetites of the body, such as hunger, and collective concerns, such as civic duty, not subjected to the numberless rules and regulations and judgments that have defined, if...

Closure: A Story of Everything
ISBN: 9780415011389 / Angielski / Twarda / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For over 2000 years our culture has believed in the possibility of a single true account of the world. Now this age is coming to a close. As a result there is a deep unease. We are lost both as individuals, and as a culture. In the new relativistic, post-modern era, we have no history, no right or moral action, and no body of knowledge. In their place is a plethora of alternative, and sometimes incompatible theories from 'fuzzy logic' to 'consilience' proposing a theory of everything. Closure is a response to this crisis. It is a radically new story about the nature of ourselves and...

Thomas Hobbes : Critical Assessments
ISBN: 9780415020046 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Thomas Hobbes is arguably one of the greatest of all English philosophers. In the second half of the 20th century, he has been subject to sustained critical attention. He was capable of powerful argument on virtually any plane, whether logical, scriptural or historical. And he has attracted attention in all these areas and more - to do with questions of historical method, language and linguistics, metaphysics, ethics, law, politics, science and religion. Hobbes has been attended to from a great variety of perspectives - as an ethical positivist and a deontologist, as a bourgeois advocate and...

George Berkeley : Critical Assessments
ISBN: 9780415020923 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During the past 30 years Berkeley scholars and commentators have produced articles and books on almost every aspect and feature of Berkeley's work. There is, however, hardly any central aspect of Berkeley's theories about which commentators might be said to be in agreement: but it is not difficult to identify several kinds of dialectical development. Since the debate shows no signs of abating, it should be useful to the students of Berkeley to have a collection of the more significant articles in a convenient form, particularly since many of the recent articles are scattered over some 50 or...
