Der Dialog Euthydemos ist unter Platons Dialogen sicherlich der lustigste der Schlagabtausche, die sich Sokrates mit den Sophisten immer wieder liefert. Die Hauptpersonen dieses brillanten Stückes philosophischer Literatur sind neben Sokrates die beiden Sophisten Euthydemos und Dionysodor. Die drei begegnen sich im Lyzeum und beginnen eine Unterhaltung, bei der sie von zahlreichen ihrer Anhänger umringt werden, die denn auch bei jeder sich bietenden Gelegenheit klatschen, Beifall rufen und ihre Kommentare mit einstreuen.

When Seneca, a stoic philosopher and advisor in Ancient Rome for emperor Nero, wrote these moral letters to Lucilius Junior, the then procurator of Sicily, he didn’t know he would soon be forced to take his own life for alleged complicity in a conspiracy to assassinate the emperor, in which he was probably innocent.

To flourish, humans need to develop virtues of independent thought and acknowledged social dependence. In this book, a leading moral philosopher presents a comparison of humans to other animals and explores the impact of these virtues.

By turns illuminating, infuriating, bewildering, and amusing, Nietzsche's masterwork covers a lot of ground. He rejects most strands of Western thought, especially on the subject of morality, and develops his own theme demanding that individuals embrace their own "will to power" to give life intention and direction. First published in German in 1887, this translation was produced in 1907 by Helen Zimmern, a long-standing acquaintance of Nietzsche.

We think we know cultural appropriation when we see it. Blackface or Native American headdresses as Halloween costumes—these clearly give offense. But what about Cardi B posing as the Hindu goddess Durga in a Reebok ad, AA's twelve-step invocation of God, or the earnest namaste you utter at the end of yoga class? Liz Bucar unpacks the ethical dilemmas of a messy form of cultural appropriation: the borrowing of religious doctrines, rituals, and dress for political, economic, and therapeutic reasons.

In irgendeinem abgelegenen Winkel des in zahllosen Sonnensystemen flimmernd ausgegossenen Weltalls gab es einmal ein Gestirn, auf dem kluge Tiere das Erkennen erfanden. Es war die hochmütigste und verlogenste Minute der "Weltgeschichte": aber doch nur eine Minute. Nach wenigen Atemzügen der Natur erstarrte das Gestirn, und die klugen Tiere mussten sterben. - So könnte jemand eine Fabel erfinden und würde doch nicht genügend illustriert haben, wie kläglich, wie schattenhaft und flüchtig, wie zwecklos und beliebig sich der menschliche Intellekt innerhalb der Natur ausnimmt.

Preguntas aparentemente sencillas, como ¿qué te pasa?, ¿cómo te llamas? o ¿de dónde vienes?, nos van acercando poco a poco al centro más profundo de nuestra alma, allí donde se descubre la herida originada por las cuatro infinitudes esenciales: vida, muerte, tú y mundo. Jamás seremos demasiado humanos: si algún horizonte tiene sentido es el de llegar a ser más humanos.
