Sujet d'intense fascination, le Marquis de Sade a acquis au fil des décennies une image qui relève du mythe. En occultant, détournant et justifiant les faits historiques, de nombreux intellectuels du XXème siècle interprètent avec complaisance la vie et la littérature du Marquis jusqu'à l'ériger en symbole. Briseur de tabous, libérateur de la sexualité, Révolutionnaire et féministe avant l'heure ? La réalité du personnage est autre.

Susan Shumsky is a successful author in the new age/spirituality field, writing books on meditation, intuition, prayer, auras, chakras, and the like. But in the 1970s, she was one of only a handful of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s personal attendants and administrators, in India, Switzerland, and elsewhere.

Maharishi founded the spiritual movement TM (Transcendental Meditation).

Ecce homo, "behold the man", are the words Friedrich Nietzsche chose as the title for his literary self-portrait. A main purpose of the book was to offer Nietzsche's own perspective on his work as a philosopher and human being. Ecce Homo also forcefully repudiates those interpretations of his previous works purporting to find support there for imperialism, anti-Semitism, militarism, and Social Darwinism.

While at San Francisco State University, he founded the Biological Self-Regulation Laboratory, to study how the mind creates psychosomatic health and disease, and it was with this research intention in mind, that he left his orderly life and ventured into the Andes, to find a knowledge that dates back thousands of years among native shamans and natural healers.

Many people argue that Confucius is the most influential person of all time, and if having a significant effect on the greatest number of people is the criterion, he may very well be. China is one of the largest and oldest civilizations on earth, and Confucius has been influential there from almost the beginning: the first Chinese dynasty was founded around 1600 BCE, and Confucius lived from 551-479 BCE.

Joseph Murphy and the Power of Your Subconscious Mind: Great Minds Series, Volume 6, 2017 Revised, Updated, and Reformatted Edition, is a study that features one of the greatest self-help authors of our time. Joseph Murphy (1898-1981), born in Ireland, was a naturalized American author and New Thought minister, ordained in divine science and religious science. He was born into a strictly Catholic schoolmaster family and was accepted as a Jesuit seminarian. However, by the time he reached his late teen years, he began to question the orthodoxy of the Jesuits and withdrew from the seminary, leaving his family for going to America, where he started a modest career as a pharmacist.

If anything, Karl Marx’s life reminds us of the power of the pen over the sword. During his lifetime, he lived in relative obscurity. Rather than making any waves, Marx was usually lucky just to make the rent. And to make the ongoing hardship of his life even worse, Karl Marx was afflicted with boils from the top of his head to the soles of his feet. But his pen would indeed demonstrate its power, and by the time 70-some years had passed since his demise, one-third of the entire planet would be living under regimes based upon his ideology.

How to think clearly, act purposefully, overcome any obstacle, and find peace and happiness along the way. The Meditations is a collection of Marcus' personal journal entries. They were not intended for publication but to remind Marcus himself of his principles and priorities. As a result, they are intimate, direct, and extremely useful. This new edition is rendered in contemporary English, with a foreword by Sam Torode.

René Descartes is one of the formative figures in Western philosophy, logic and mathematics. His famous statement: "I think, therefore I am," has become perhaps the most famous phrase in all of philosophy. Descartes’s ground-breaking writings attempted to establish unshakeable foundations of knowledge, and set a trend for subsequent Western philosophy, which has endlessly critiqued and expanded upon his ideas.

Ludwig Wittgenstein is één van de belangrijkste denkers uit de 20e eeuw en zijn filosofische werk omvat vrijwel het hele menselijk denken en handelen, met nadruk op de logica. Weinig mensen echter weten dat muziek een hoofdrol speelde in zijn leven. Hij groeide op in een muzikale familie, waar grote componisten als Brahms en Mahler over de vloer kwamen. Zelf speelde Wittgenstein klarinet en hij componeerde een muziekstuk, getiteld Leidenschaftlich, dat hij met potlood tussen zijn filosofische aantekeningen krabbelde.

De Griekse historicus Herodotus (circa 480-430 v.Chr.) heeft veel eretitels gekregen. In de oudheid stond hij al bekend als ‘vader der geschiedenis’ en tegenwoordig noemt men hem eerder ‘vader der journalistiek’ en ‘eerste wereldreiziger’. Zijn indrukwekkende boek Historiën is grensverleggend en letterlijk grensoverschrijdend geweest. In deze hoorcolleges bespreekt classicus en Byzantinoloog Hein van Dolen de methode van Herodotus, zijn bronnen en zijn eigen onderzoekingen, waarbij Herodotus de gewoonten en eigenaardigheden van vreemde volkeren beschreef.

Met de verkiezing van Donald Trump tot president van de V.S. staat het verschil tussen feit en fictie onder druk en daarmee ook de democratie zelf. Kunnen we voor onze tijd iets leren van belangrijke filosofische critici van het nazisme en totalitarisme? Zowel Hannah Arendt (1906-1975) als Karl Popper (1902-1994) waren van Joodse afkomst en vluchtten voor Hitler. Beiden probeerden de ideologische wortels van het nazitijdperk te doorgronden. Ook formuleerden ze normen waaraan een open en democratische samenleving moet voldoen.

Perché Eraclito morì sepolto vivo sotto il letame? Cosa ci raccontano il dolce morire di Democrito in una vasca piena di miele e il tuffarsi nell'Etna di Empedocle? Perché Thomas More fu decapitato e Giordano Bruno arso vivo? Cosa nascondono la cicuta di Socrate, la polmonite di Descartes e la pleurite di Schopenhauer? Per Matteo Saudino, il Prof più seguito d'Italia, morire è l'atto più filosofico del nostro vivere. La morte è un caleidoscopio attraverso cui osservare frammenti di puzzle esistenziali e ricostruire trame del pensiero.

Der Klassiker über das Aussteigerleben und ein radikales Selbstexperiment in der Natur: Der 28-jährige Henry D.

Johannes Sløk gør i denne bog på en forståelig og pædagogisk veltilrettelagt måde rede for, hvad der var anliggendet og tankeudviklingen bag Kierkegaards livsværk. Bogen er en uundværlig nøgle for alle, der ønsker at stifte bekendtskab med Danmarks mest geniale og berømte tænker.

Jørgen K.’s korte liv kom til at centrere sig om Det teologiske fakultet i Århus, hvor han tog sin uddannelse og havde sit virke. Han interesserede sig især for fire områder: videnskabsteori og hermeneutik, herunder digtningens rolle; teologi og religiøs tro; menneskesynet, hin enkelte, ikke mindst som det bliver reflekteret hos Søren Kierkegaard; og endelig synet på samfundet og institutionerne. Men det var karakteristisk for ham. at han tænkte bredere og spændte videre end alle andre i sin tid.

Volumul "Rămâi cu bine" conţine o selecție de scrisori care au fost trimise de Seneca acum 2000 de ani şi acum au ajuns la noi. "Ramâi cu bine" nu este doar o formă de a lua rămas bun la incheierea unei scrisori, ci şi o aducere aminte: "Eu plec, tu rămâi cu tine. Întotdeauna eşti cu tine. Ai grijă de ceea ce este cu adevărat al tău - timpul tău şi partea ceea bună din tine!"

La filosofia di Berdjaev (1874-1948) è una delle più profonde affermazioni dell'esistenzialismo cristiano e risente dell'influsso di Dostoevskij. In particolare, la lettura della leggenda del "Grande Inquisitore" (che compare nei fratelli Karamazov sotto forma di racconto pensato da Ivan ed esposto ad Alëša) è stato un passo fondamentale per il filosofo russo, in quanto inserisce nella sua filosofia della storia, caratterizzata da una visione teologica, la riflessione sulla libertà.

Rudolf Steiner pubblicò sulla sua rivista i vari capitoli della sua autobiografia. Nella storia della sua vita si pone particolare attenzione a come il suo percorso di persona che già vedeva il mondo spirituale lo portò a interfacciarsi con la realtà fisica, finché poi cercò di introdurre, con l'edificio dell'Antroposofia, coloro che vedevano solo attraverso i sensi ad una strada che li portasse alla visione spirituale.

María Zambrano, allieva di José Ortega y Gasset e di Xavier Zubiri all'Universidad Central di Madrid, fu esiliata dopo la guerra civile e viaggiò, peregrinando e nascondendosi, dal Messico a Cuba, da Roma alla Svizzera. Con uno sguardo profondo e delicato, Luigina Mortari compone il ritratto di una vita in fuga e di un pensiero libero: "La filosofia di Zambrano spazia sui paesaggi dell'anima, apre all'immensità del cosmo, addolcisce il discorso con parole di poesia, e per queste sue qualità può sembrare una filosofia dell'intimo.

Poche donne nella storia ebbero la possibilità di distinguersi nelle discipline scientifiche, considerate appannaggio maschile. La più nota, nella tarda antichità, fu senza dubbio Ipazia, scienziata e filosofa, nata ad Alessandria d'Egitto nel 370 d.C., inventrice di strumenti come il planisfero e l'astrolabio. Figlia del matematico Teone, e lei stessa primo matematico donna della storia, fu la più nota esponente alessandrina della scuola neoplatonica, circondata dal rispetto di allievi giunti da ogni angolo del mondo.

Una vita esemplare e un pensiero folgorante. Eugenio Borgna ha trascorso molto della sua vita in dialogo con gli scritti di Simone Weil, che hanno saputo offrirgli infinite suggestioni per il suo cammino di medico e psichiatra, impegnato nell'ascolto e nella condivisione della sofferenza e della speranza.

Durch keinen anderen Denker lernt man so gut kennen, was auch die "Sattelzeit" genannt wurde: der Übergang des alten Europa in die moderne Gesellschaft. Ob Aufklärung, die Herrschaft Napoleons oder die Befreiungskriege, ob Industrialisierung, Vormärz oder die großen Entdeckungen - die Welt ändert sich während der Lebensjahrzehnte Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegels von Grund auf. Und zwar durch Ideen, die zu Revolutionen führten: politische, industrielle, ästhetische und pädagogische.

Socrate est un philosophe de la Grèce antique (-470 à -399), considéré comme l'un des inventeurs de la philosophie morale et politique. Il n'a cependant laissé aucune œuvre écrite ; sa philosophie s'est transmise par l'intermédiaire de témoignages indirects (en particulier par les écrits de ses disciples Platon et Xénophon).
