Secularism is increasingly a fact of life in Western society. But that doesn’t necessarily mean that faith is harder than it has been before. Even in the past when organized religion enjoyed more widespread cultural acceptance, there were still obstacles to true belief. Today, the obstacles are different, but faith is still viable.

History from many perspectives.

Emerson describes the fluidity of thinking and life; how we need to be open to new ideas and not be wed to old ones; how to open ourselves up to these ideas by expanding our circles of knowledge and ideas.

"Рождение трагедии, или Эллинство и пессимизм"—эстетический трактат, в котором Фридрих Ницше изложил свой взгляд на дуалистические истоки искусства.

El escepticismo es bien conocido en la filosofía occidental, la mentalidad de cuestionar las afirmaciones de conocimiento establecidas en varias áreas. Los escépticos han cuestionado la idoneidad o confiabilidad de estas afirmaciones preguntando en qué conceptos se basan o qué establecen realmente. Han dudado de si algunas de esas afirmaciones son verdaderas, tal como se declaran, o siempre verdaderas, y han cuestionado las supuestas premisas lógicas de las suposiciones aceptadas.

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 – 1882) war einer der Begründer des Transzendentalismus. Der Philosoph begründete eine neue Denkrichtung der Philosophie. Er forderte den Menschen auf, im Einklang mit der Natur zu leben, und gilt als Mitbegründer der "New Thought"-Bewegung. Seine Essays "Selbständigkeit", "Persönlichkeit" und "Manieren" sind Klassiker, die sich mit guter Lebensführung befassen.

Emerson describes the existence & nature of the human soul, the relationship between the ego & the soul, the relation between God & the soul, reaching back to all of Western thought starting with Socrates & Plato.

In the spring of 1871, Ralph Waldo Emerson boarded a train in Concord, Massachusetts, bound for a month-and-a-half-long tour of California—an interlude that became one of the highlights of his life. Based on original research employing newly discovered documents, The California Days of Ralph Waldo Emerson maps the public story of this trip onto the private story of Emerson's final years. Engaging and compelling, this travelogue makes it clear that Emerson was still capable of wonder, surprise, and friendship, debunking the presumed darkness of his last decade.

Chi è il Dio dei monoteismi? Non certo il Dio di cui discutono atei e credenti, ma un Dio tragico e assoluto, drammatico nella sua Unità e apertura al mondo. È il concetto più alto: pensarlo significa affondare negli abissi del monoteismo, scorgere l'imperscrutabilità di questa presenza-assenza che da sempre ingombra la vita dell'uomo. Ma è anche il Dio che irrompe nella storia con uno sguardo di Amore verso l'Uomo e si fa sorgente di libertà e giustizia.

Aclamado como una parábola para los tiempos modernos, Erasmo de Rotterdam es la biografía de un gran humanista que, cuando se le pidió una confesión de fe, dijo: “Amo la libertad, y no serviré ni puedo servir a ningún partido”. En ningún momento Zweig menciona a Hitler por su nombre, pero es obvio que esta biografía de un hombre que trató de mantenerse por encima de la batalla.

Most of us experience the world through competing perspectives. A job or a religion seems important and fulfilling when looked at in one way; but from a different angle they seem tedious or ridiculous. A friend is obtuse from one point of view, wise from another. Continuing to hold both views at once can be unsettling, highlighting conflicts between our own judgments and values, and undermining our ability to live purposefully and effectively. Yet, as Jennifer Church argues in this book, inner conflict can be a good thing.

Solidarietà, empatia, simpatia, compassione: parole di cui oggi nel discorso pubblico e nel linguaggio della politica si è quasi persa traccia. E questo, proprio mentre milioni di uomini e donne chiedono aiuto attraversando mari e tribolazioni, e mentre la povertà e le diseguaglianze crescono anche nel mondo ricco. Perché entrare in contatto con le emozioni altrui è diventato così difficile? E che cosa accade quando un essere umano le vede e le sente, le emozioni dell'altro?

La filosofia come non ve l'hanno mai mostrata. Divertente e irriverente e, incredibile a dirsi, perfino comprensibile e utile. Rende conto di tutte le correnti, sintetizza le intuizioni più brillanti in un pensiero stupendo, suggerisce le applicazioni pratiche di ogni teoria, propone una colonna sonora per ciascuna riflessione filosofica, invita a sperimentare il valore di mercato delle diverse dottrine. Dall'Età dei Lumi ai contemporanei, da Cartesio a Popper, da Voltaire ad Heidegger, questa è la storia non autorizzata di cinque secoli di pensiero filosofico.

Reinterpretazione delle più peculiari teorie filosofiche per leggere con metodo le varie vicissitudini esistenziali.
