Власть над людьми и люди у власти

Книга «Власть над людьми и люди у власти» рассказывает о многогранности государственного механизма, а также о его влиянии на жизнь обычных людей. Власть неразрывно связана с принуждением и насилием, и люди пытаются сопротивляться навязанным правилам, что у них не всегда получается сделать. Власть присутствует везде, большинство населения даже не замечает ее, хотя она регулирует все сферы жизни. В произведении автор повествует о том, чем отличалась власть несколько десятилетий назад от той,...

Мужчина и женщина

«Следовать за мыслями великого человека, – писал А. С. Пушкин, – есть наука самая занимательная». Афоризмы знаменитых мыслителей и ученых, политиков и писателей, поэтов и художников по праву являются не только источником житейской мудрости, но и ответами на вечные вопросы, волнующие многие поколения людей. Тема взаимоотношений мужчины и женщины всегда волновала умы великих. Изречения известных мудрецов прошлого и настоящего по#разному отвечают на этот вопрос, но все они без исключения – о...

МЫ

Виктор Юрьевич Кукушкин

МЫ

Чтобы жить, надо обладать мудростью. Но мудрость не приходит сразу. А так хочется, чтобы в тебе соединялись и детская наивность, и страсть, и фантазии, и мудрость. Но приходит одно, другое в этот момент почему-то уходит. Бывает и так, что-то, к сожалению, не уходит. Или не приходит. Не каждому человеку идут те или иные качества, как не каждому идет та или иная одежда.

Мудрость Черчилля. Цитаты великого политика

Единственный британский премьер-министр, получивший Нобелевскую премию по литературе, Уинстон Леонард Спенсер-Черчилль родился в 1874 году. Он участвовал в боевых действиях в самых отдаленных уголках Британской империи как военный корреспондент и солдат. А потом он стал писателем, историком и политиком. Жизнь дала ему навыки, необходимые для служения Британии в час величайших испытаний. Несмотря на постоянный дефект дикции, Черчилль был выдающимся оратором. Во время Второй мировой войны он...

The Social Contract, A Discourse on the Origin of Inequality, and A Discourse on Political Economy

Jean-Jacques Rousseau writes, «Man is born free; and everywhere he is in chains.» This statement exemplifies the main idea behind «The Social Contract», in other words that man is essentially free if it weren't for the oppression of political organizations such as government. Rousseau goes on to lay forth the principles that he deems most important for achieving political right amongst people. Contained within this volume are also two discourses by Jean-Jacques Rousseau. In «A Discourse on...

Arthur Schopenhauer

The World as Will and Representation (The World as Will and Idea), Volume II of III

German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer wrote a strong text to explain his belief system in «The World as Will and Representation.» Rather than viewing the world as a construct within itself, Schopenhauer argued that the world exists beyond the five senses. He believed that rather than seeing an object in its true form, we only see and understand our perception of it. His ideas are classified as post-Kantian philosophy, just one strand of thought amidst other thinkers such as Hegel and Heidegger....

Heraclitus

The Fragments of Heraclitus

Heraclitus of Ephesus was a pre-Socratic Greek philosopher who lived a lonely life earning him the moniker of the «Weeping Philosopher.» His principal philosophy is embodied in the following statement «No man ever steps in the same river twice,» in other words man faces an ever-present change in the universe. He believed in the unity of opposites, stating that «the path up and down are one and the same.» According to Diogenes, Heraclitus worked on «a continuous treatise On Nature,» which «was...

Phaedrus, Apology, Crito, and Symposium

"Phaedrus, Apology, Crito, and Symposium": four works of the great ancient Greek philosopher Plato are brought together here in this volume. The Phaedrus is closely connected with the Symposium, and may be regarded either as introducing or following it. The two Dialogues together contain the whole philosophy of Plato on the nature of love. In the Apology we hear the response that Socrates gives in defense at his trial. And in Crito we have a dialogue between Crito and Socrates in...

The Theological Tractates and The Consolation of Philosophy

Boethius's «Consolation of Philosophy» is considered one of the most important and influential works of medieval times. Written during Boethius's year-long imprisonment for treason which would ultimately lead to his torturous execution, «Consolation of Philosophy» is a classical exposition of human nature as Boethius reflects on the treacherous betrayal by his friends that led to his fall from favor with his lord.

On the Aesthetic Education of Man and Other Philosophical Essays

Friedrich Schiller was a German philosopher, poet, and playwright during the late 1700's. Schiller was in the army when he began writing his first plays. His superiors found his first composition and immediately told him that he was no longer allowed to write anymore. In response, Schiller deserted the army, moved to another country, and began writing under a false name. During this time, Schiller became close with famed playwright Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Along with Goethe, Schiller was...

The Case of Wagner and Nietzsche Contra Wagner

"The Case of Wagner" is a critique of German composer Richard Wagner in which Friedrich Nietzsche makes a very public split with the musician. Nietzsche found himself at odds with Wagner's increasing involvement in the Völkisch movement and anti-Semitism. The critique of Wagner is something that is seen throughout Nietzsche's work, beginning with «The Birth of Tragedy», wherein he praised Wagner as fulfilling a need in music to go beyond the analytic and dispassionate...

A Philosophical Inquiry into the Origin of Our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful

First written in 1757, this treatise on aesthetics provides a distinct transition from Neoclassicism to Romanticism. This is apparent in Burke's ultimate preference for the Sublime over the Beautiful, for he defined the latter as that which is well-formed and aesthetically pleasing and the former as that which has the power to compel or destroy mankind. Within this text, Burke also posits that the origin of these ideas comes by way of their causal structures, utilizing Aristotelian concepts...

A Treatise on Fishing, The Walnut Tree, Consolation to Livia, and Other Spurious Works

The Roman poet known to the English speaking world as Ovid is best known for his work Metamorphoses, a mythological epic which chronicles the history of the world from its creation to the deification of Julius Caesar. Widely considered as one of the most important authors of Latin literature, Ovid produced an extensive body of work. Some of these works have been lost to history and in the case of the works of this volume have a doubtful attribution to the author. «Halieutica» or «A Treatise on...

Essential Dialogues of Plato

Thirteen of Plato's most well-known dialogues are included in the collection «Essential Dialogues of Plato.» Plato was a learned student of the early philosopher Socrates. Because Socrates did not write any works before his untimely death, Pluto took Socrates' beliefs and expressed them through imagined dialogues between the philosopher and his students. It was the first time in Western history that a philosophical dialectic between the teacher and student was developed. In the...

The Science of Right

From the introduction: «The Science of Right has for its object the principles of all the laws which it is possible to promulgate by external legislation. Where there is such a legislation, it becomes, in actual application to it, a system of positive right and law; and he who is versed in the knowledge of this system is called a jurist or jurisconsult (jurisconsultus). A practical jurisconsult (jurisperitus), or a professional lawyer, is one who is skilled in the knowledge of positive external...
