In fünf Kapiteln nimmt uns Kornfield mit auf eine Reise durch verschiedene Genres und Kulturen. Jede Geschichte hat eine zentrale Botschaft: Sie zeigt, wie wir in schwierigen Zeiten inneren Frieden, Mitgefühl und Stärke finden können. Dabei geht es um die großen Themen des Lebens: Liebe, Verlust, Schmerz, aber auch die Herausforderungen unserer heutigen Welt, wie die Klimakrise.

Our lives are shaped by contradictions. Competing voices tell us who to be, what to want, and how to live. The result? A fragmented moral imagination. We're handed a thousand broken messages and left to cobble together something resembling a life. But instead of clarity, we get exhaustion...

Gretchen Reydams-Schils, a leading authority on Roman Stoicism, has carefully chosen and skillfully translated passages that exemplify the key themes of the Meditations, from everyday irritations such as encountering difficult people to existential worries such as the fear of death. How to Be Stoic also features a substantial and authoritative introduction and the original Greek text. The result is perhaps the most accessible edition of the Meditations available.

When Urien and his sailing companions begin their voyage, it is to places unknown and, perhaps, only dreamed. This allegorical masterpiece from André Gide, a key figure of French letters, deftly illustrates the techniques and doctrine of the Symbolist movement - and the dual nature of Gide’s own psyche. Written at a crucial time in his artistic development, this imaginative work signals his gradual abandonment of acetic celibacy toward an embrace of pleasure and carnal desires, revealing a Gide more transparent in this early work than in his mature writings.

Leo Tolstoy was born to an aristocratic Russian family, became a world-famous influential novelist, and then chose to lead the simple life of a peasant. Dating from this last part of his life, Tolstoy’s influential book What I Believe takes readers along on the path to a life modeled literally on Jesus Christ’s "Sermon on the Mount" and the teachings of the Gospels. In revealing and frank essays he reimagines a faith without dogma, centered solely on Jesus’ doctrine of love, humility, and self-denial.

In Man for Himself, Erich Fromm examines the confusion of modern women and men who, because they lack faith in any principle by which life ought to be guided, become the helpless prey forces both within and without. From the broad, interdisciplinary perspective that marks Fromm's distinguished oeuvre, he shows that psychology cannot divorce itself from the problems of philosophy and ethics, and that human nature cannot be understood without understanding the values and moral conflicts that confront us all.

Der Sozialpsychologe Jonathan Haidt zeigt: Die Antwort liegt in unserer Moral – die weit weniger auf Rationalität und Logik gründet als auf Intuition und Sozialtrieb. Moral bringt uns dazu, individuelle Interessen zu überwinden und mit anderen zu kooperieren; zugleich aber macht sie uns blind für die Perspektiven anderer Gruppen. So haben sich im Lauf der Evolution und Geschichte zwischen Gemeinschaften und Kulturen sehr unterschiedliche moralische Intuitionen herausgebildet.
