Der Einzelne im Spannungsfeld zwischen Individualität und Gesellschaft. Jeder Mensch ist zunächst einmal ein Einzelner. Das kann zur Belastung werden, aber auch den Ehrgeiz wecken, die eigene Individualität zu kultivieren. Zwischen diesen beiden Polen unserer Existenz hat es immer wieder eindrucksvolle Versuche gegeben, einzeln zu sein. Davon erzählt Rüdiger Safranski, beginnend bei Michel de Montaigne, über Rousseau, Diderot, Kierkegaard, Stirner und Thoreau bis zur existentialistischen Philosophie des 20. Jahrhunderts.

"Este libro pertenece a “Cartas de un estoico”, también conocido como “Cartas a Lucilio”, la cual es una colección de cartas y notas que el famoso filósofo Romano, Séneca, envió a su amigo Lucilio para dar sus primeros pasos en el camino del estoicismo. Con estas cartas Séneca buscaba ayudar a su apreciado amigo a controlar sus emociones, ser más disciplinado y, en el proceso, aprender a vivir mejor."

Questo libro è per chi si sente fuori posto o, come si dice in greco, atopos. Pare che uno dei primi a essere definito così sia stato Socrate, giudicato troppo strano, a volte anche fastidioso. Dopo di lui, tutti i filosofi vennero considerati atopoi. Le loro vite erano tormentate dalla ricerca di qualcosa che continuava a sfuggire e osservavano il mondo dall'esterno, senza farne mai davvero parte. Chi si sente fuori posto prova ogni giorno il doloroso desiderio di trovare un luogo da chiamare casa e vive la vita col fiato sospeso, sperando di riuscire un giorno a respirare.

This book (in dialogue form) explains what is the nature of politics, and what is the anthropological evolution of the political party by defining the essence of the political left and right and their respective raisons d’etre, what motivates them, and the nature of their ethics. The explanation is contained in 7 Dictums (one set of seven principles each for the Left and the Right). Further, the book demonstrates how the Dictums are relative and explanatory to the rise and fall of empires and the causes of war.

The "Starship" we need to transport humanity from primitives to the stars is a society that supports our physical nature—one that promotes reality, reason, and individualism. Technology will follow. JJ Kelly, the former CEO of US Telecom and a recognized founder of the Telecommunications Revolution, points out that humanity rose above animals by evolving the faculty of reason and creating technology.

A point-blank attempt on confusion itself. Marked by the dogged precision of one resolved to sort the universe with nothing more than a pen and a visceral hunger for understanding, this berserk dissection of the world stands alone—a sober yet dynamic testament both to what crystalline lucidity lines the unnervingly paradoxical, and what incontrovertible madness is tucked into the folds of the mundane.

In his book Pragmatism, William James attacked the transcendental, rationalist tradition in philosophy and tried to clear the ground for the doctrine he called radical empiricism. The book caused an uproar; it was greeted with praise, hostility, and ridicule. Determined to clarify the pragmatic conception of truth, James collected nine essays he had written on this subject before he wrote Pragmatism and six written later in response to criticisms of that volume by Bertrand Russell and others. He published the collection under the title "The Meaning of Truth" in 1909, the year before his death.

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 gaya ciencia, también traducido como "El gay saber" o "El alegre saber", es una de las obras capitales del filósofo Friedrich Nietzsche, escrita en 1882. Con ella se cierra el periodo "negativo" (de destrucción de la metafísica cristiana) y se abre el periodo afirmativo (de construcción de nuevos valores), en el que se destaca la obra "Así habló Zaratustra". Para Friedrich Nietzsche el cristianismo inventó un mundo ideal, inexistente, alejado de todo contacto con el mundo real.

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.
