Las Meditaciones de Marco Aurelio es una obra que todavía hoy sigue ayudando a millones de lectores a vivir mejor. Cuando nos enfrentamos a su lectura, una pregunta nos asalta inevitablemente: ¿cómo pudo Marco Aurelio (121-180), máxima autoridad de uno de los imperios más grandes de la historia, conservar la serenidad en medio de un tumulto de guerras, traiciones, epidemias y catástrofes naturales que lo sacudieron durante cerca de dos decenios? La respuesta se encuentra en la filosofía en la que se formó desde muy joven y por la que experimentó una intensa pasión: el estoicismo.

O Sr. Hume possui um sentimento delicado, um pensamento de feitio original, uma linguagem perspícua, não raro elegante, qualidades que não poderiam deixar de recomendar seus escritos a todo leitor de bom gosto. É pena que um gênio como esse empregue as suas habilidades como frequentemente o faz em seus ataques à religião de seu país. Ele não age como um inimigo franco e leal, mas tenta enfraquecer a autoridade dela por meio de sugestões oblíquas e insinuações ardilosas.

For millennia, humanity has stumbled through darkness, divided by wars, hatred, and inexplicable suffering. We’ve blamed politics, religion, economics—but what if the real reason has been hiding in plain sight, and this knowledge could change everything? Imagine the possibility of exposing hidden forces that have manipulated civilizations, sparked genocides, and turned brother against brother. Imagine how much better your life could be if you had knowledge powerful enough to fuel culture, unite humanity, and create meaning in people’s lives for generations to come.

Courting Athena is a short introduction into this amazing subject.

In How Adam Smith Can Change Your Life, Roberts examines Smith’s forgotten masterpiece, and finds a treasure trove of timeless, practical wisdom. Smith’s insights into human nature are just as relevant today as they were 300 years ago. What does it take to be truly happy? Should we pursue fame and fortune or the respect of our friends and family? How can we make the world a better place?

Muitos anos atrás, um garoto solitário foi a uma pequena e escura capela em busca de Deus. Mais tarde, entregou a sua vida a Cristo. Essa acabou sendo a decisão mais importante de toda a sua vida. Se não fosse por Cristo — ele reflete — sua vida seria mais uma na lata de lixo das vidas perdidas e descartadas. Em vez disso, sua vida tem sido usada para conduzir muitos outros à nova vida e a um entendimento mais profundo daquele que deu a sua vida para que nós vivêssemos.

We evaluate people all the time for a wide variety of activities. We blame them for miscalculations, uninspired art, and committing crimes. We praise them for detailed brushwork, a superb pass, and their acts of kindness. We accomplish things, from solving crosswords to mastering guitar solos. We bungle our endeavors, whether this is letting a friend down or burning dinner. Sometimes these deeds are morally significant, but many times they are not. Simply Responsible defends the radical proposal that the blameworthy artist is responsible in just the same way that the blameworthy thief is.

What if human life has no secure foundation—no ultimate law, no necessity, no rational guarantee? For Lev Shestov (1866–1938), the most unsettling of Russian existential thinkers, philosophy’s dream of certainty was an illusion born of fear. Against the entire Western tradition from Plato to Kant and Hegel, he proclaimed that existence is groundless: fragile, paradoxical, exposed to the abyss of uncertainty. This book presents Shestov’s thought as a radical alternative to systems of reason and necessity.

Was geschieht, wenn wir Kant nicht mehr als marmornes Denkmal, sondern als lebendigen Menschen lesen? Diese Frage bildet den Kern dieses Buches. Immanuel Kants Philosophie war niemals dazu bestimmt, als unverrückbares Dogma verehrt zu werden. Sie war ein kritisches Projekt, ein Versuch, die Grenzen der Vernunft sichtbar zu machen und Werkzeuge für weiteres Denken zu schaffen.
