Titoli in Moderna

Man sieht sich gedrungen wünschen zu wollen und sagen zu können, dass nach der akustischen Auseinandersetzung mit Nietzsches Unzeitgemäßen Betrachtungen jeder ein Stück klüger wird als er war – doch leider belehren uns Vergangenheit und Gegenwart eines besseren und lassen diesen unausgesprochenen frommen Wunsch wie eine Seifenblase im Orkan im Entstehungs-Ansatz zerplatzen. Je konkreter und klarer Gedanken formuliert werden, desto schwieriger sind sie zu verstehen.

El reconocido activista y escritor Mike Davis ofrece un pronóstico aterrador de una nueva amenaza global y establece la crisis de la COVID-19 en el contexto de catástrofes virales anteriores, como la gripe de 1918, que mató al menos a cuarenta millones de personas en tres...

La guerra es la muerte en sí misma. Vale lo mismo la vida de un guerrillero que la de un soldado. Y sin embargo, después de más de medio siglo de guerra de guerrillas, de masacres y bombardeos, de emboscadas, desapariciones… pocos, muy pocos en Colombia están convencidos de que la guerra...

El dinero es uno de los pilares de la sociedad tal y como la conocemos. Todos lo utilizamos cotidianamente sin que su empleo presuponga ningún conocimiento específico en materia económica; y sin embargo, para entender qué es el dinero y cómo funciona es preciso recurrir a la filosofía, más aún cuando las crisis y las transformaciones históricas que estamos viviendo imponen una reflexión profunda sobre su papel en el mundo contemporáneo.

Children, if they are to grow up as citizens, must learn a good deal that their parents could not teach them even if they had the necessary time. The statesman must make provision for this teaching or he will presently find himself faced with the impossible task of maintaining civilization with savages instead of citizens

Unravel the enigmatic depths of Albert Einstein's mind in "Ideas and Opinions." This captivating collection, compiled by the master himself, unveils his diverse perspectives on science, philosophy, social issues, and even religion. Delve into the workings of relativity, ponder his nuanced views on faith, and journey with him as he advocates for peace, justice, and societal transformation.

Rescatamos los pensamientos que Francesco Guicciardini, el gran padre de la historiografía moderna, escribió bajo el título de Ricordi. Estas notas aforísticas, que fue reuniendo en distintos momentos de su vida y en diversos períodos de su actividad como diplomático, permanecieron inéditas hasta 1857. Vecino de Maquiavelo, catorce años mayor que él, en la República de Florencia, su pragmatismo sujeto a las circunstancias del momento lo oponían en cierto modo al autor de El príncipe.

Beyond Good and Evil confirmed Nietzsche's position as the towering European philosopher of his age. The work dramatically rejects the tradition of Western thought with its notions of truth and God, good and evil. Nietzsche demonstrates that the Christian world is steeped in a false piety and infected with a 'slave morality'. With wit and energy, he turns from this critique to a philosophy that celebrates the present and demands that the individual imposes their own 'will to power' upon the world.

Step into the mind of one of history's most influential thinkers as Nietzsche takes you on a profound journey through morality, truth, and the nature of human existence. This groundbreaking work, brought to life in captivating audio format, explores Nietzsche's bold and revolutionary ideas that continue to resonate in our modern world.

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.

The philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche's autobiography, Ecce Homo, was the last prose work that he wrote before his illness in 1889. Coming at the end of an extraordinarily productive year in which he had produced The Twilight of the Idols and The Antichrist, Nietzsche shuns any pretense at modesty with chapter titles include “Why I am so Wise”, “Why I am so Clever” and “Why I Write Such Excellent Books”. His translator Anthony M. Ludovici states, Ecce Homo “is not only a coping-stone worthy of the wonderful creations of that year, but also a fitting conclusion to his whole life.

Hvad kendetegner kærlighed? Det er det store spørgsmål, som "Kierkegaard og kærlighedens kendetegn" forsøger at give svar på. Søren Kierkegaards bog "Kjerlighedens Gjerninger" udkom i 1847. Den har siden opnået nærmest ikonisk status; det er en bog, der bliver refereret til og citeret fra i mange forskellige sammenhænge, og det er en af den slags bøger, der kan være livsforandrende for sin læser. Men det er også en bog, der har ry for at være svær at læse.

The best support, history, and analysis on the story of philosophy. Particularly appropriate for the non-academic who is better served by the audiobook with extensive references.

Berkeley uses the Socratic mode of inquiry in "Three Dialogues between Hylas and Philonous" to question fundamental beliefs about knowledge and reality. These dialogues are between Hylas (whose name is derived from the ancient Greek word for matter) and Philonous, whose name means "lover of mind." The new physical sciences developed in the seventeenth century supported the materialism proposed by Thomas Hobbes and several other philosophers. This worldview proclaimed that all of reality consists of nothing but matter in motion, thus promoting atheism and ethical skepticism.

The best writer on this subject written with the elegance of Hemingway and Fitzgerald with the passion and insights of Cather and Baldwin. No word changes required for transforming the work from prose to audio - remarkable in itself. Narrator brings the passion and strength to the reading to approach those of DuBois. A must-listen for the woke and non-woke.

Peut-on encore parler de philosophie après Hiroshima ? Cette question résume à elle seule le désarroi et l'angoisse des philosophes de la seconde moitié du XXe siècle après les atrocités des guerres mondiales. Mais ce désarroi est en germe dès le XIXe siècle, suscité notamment par les « philosophes du soupçon ». Cet ouvrage interroge la spécificité de la philosophie contemporaine et les fondements de ce désenchantement.

מה קורה כאשר פו הדוב פוגש את וודי אלן? מה עשתה אליס על הספה של פרויד? איך הצליח עמנואל קאנט לפגוש את מרילין מונרו? האם אנו מבזבזים זמן או שהזמן מבזבז אותנו? מהי משנתו...

"Dies Buch gehört den Wenigsten. Vielleicht lebt selbst noch keiner von ihnen. Erst das Übermorgen gehört mir." Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900) rechnete in dieser Schrift mit dem Christentum ab - wie üblich in einem Tonfall, der dem "Philosophieren mit dem Hammer" gleichkam. Ein zentrales Werk in Nietzsches Schaffen!

What was philosophy as Descartes found it around 1620? What was philosophy like before Descartes reformed it after 1637? What features of philosophy did he want to fix and what tools did he use? To answer such questions, how should philosophers do their work today? One answer is surprising: that Descartes wrote picture books, for example.

"Der Nutzen ist das große Ideal der Zeit, dem alle Kräfte frohnen und alle Talente huldigen sollen. Auf dieser groben Waage hat das geistige Verdienst der Kunst kein Gewicht, und aller Aufmunterung beraubt, verschwindet sie von dem lärmenden Markt des Jahrhunderts." In seiner Abhandlung aus dem Jahre 1795 geht Schiller der Frage nach, warum die französische Revolution nicht in der Lage war, Frankreich die versprochene Humanität zu bringen. Schiller berührt Punkte der Moralphilosophie, der Anthropologie und der Geschichtsphilosophie. Ein echtes Grundlagenwerk der Philosophie!
