Showing titles in Metaphysics

Vierter Teil aus Hegels "Vorlesungen über die Philosophie der Geschichte".

Dans ce court texte qui réfléchit la lumière déclinante de nos idéaux, Nietzsche ausculte nos anciennes idoles. C'est toute l'histoire de la philosophie qui est ainsi passée au scalpel, et qui tombe parfois en mille morceaux. L'humour le dispute ici à la sévérité - cruauté de bon aloi. Au carrefour de la métaphysique et de la morale, "Le crépuscule des idoles" interroge les notions fondamentales de la philosophie, telles que la raison, la volonté, la vérité. Ce titre aux accents wagnériens est emblématique de la pensée nietzschéenne.

This Aristotelian treatise makes up part of the philosopher’s Parva Naturalia, which is Latin for “short treatises on nature”. In this text, he presents his ideas about the human senses. He connects each sense to an element - sight to water, touch to earth, etc. While Aristotle’s view of the senses is scientifically inaccurate in many ways, this treatise is a fascinating read for anyone interested in learning more about how the ancients understood the world.

This volume explores the metaphysics of Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten (1714-1762) and its decisive influence on Immanuel Kant. For over a century, scholars have recognized the significance of Baumgarten's Metaphysics, both because of its impact on Kant's intellectual development and because of the way it fundamentally informed the work of generations of German philosophers, including Moses Mendelssohn, Thomas Abbt, Johann Gottfried Herder, Solomon Maimon, Johann August Eberhard, and arguably even Georg Friedrich Hegel.

By the time he was 30, Syd Kessler was a millionaire many times over, the epitome of the poor kid making good. But inside him, a hollowness was taking hold, and later, in middle age, he fell seriously ill. In the dark days of a long recovery, Kessler explored the Kabbalah and the discoveries of quantum physics, developing a system of moral principles from the truths of how the universe began and operates. His set of principles - from Big Bang to Moral Cause and Effect to Selfless Selfishness to Closure and Energy - are revolutionary.

Las Meditaciones metafísicas, fue publicada por primera vez en 1641, en latín y posteriormente en francés en 1647. En ella se elabora el sistema filosófico que había introducido en 1637, en la 4ª parte del Discurso del método. El principal objetivo es la demostración de Dios mediante razonamientos lógicos y definir las bases del conocimiento del momento con el fin de disponerlo sobre unas bases más sólidas de las que había hasta entonces. Descartes también estudia la naturaleza dual del hombre compuesta por el pensamiento y el cuerpo.

El profeta da a todos los hombres, de acuerdo con las leyes de Dios, impulsos para reflexionar y respuesta sobre los sucesos y anomalías que tienen lugar en este mundo. Además habla también sobre su tarea y así también sobre sí mismo.

Sorprende que a 140 años de la muerte de Schopenhauer aún existan textos inéditos de su obra. El amor es un sentimiento humano que puede crecer hasta opacar cualquier aspiración, determinación o certeza del individuo e incluso llevarlo a sacrificar su vida, y sin embargo, en palabras de Arthur Schopenhauer, había sido "totalmente ignorado por los filósofos" hasta que éste lo interpretó metafísica y trascendentemente.

Les Démons de la liberté retrace l’histoire d’une trahison. Celle d’un mot magnifique devenu instrument de domination. Celle d’un rêve qui, au lieu d’émanciper, a trop souvent asservi. À travers une analyse lucide des mécanismes politiques, économiques, médiatiques et culturels, ce livre démonte les illusions modernes pour poser une question essentielle : jusqu’à quand continuera-t-on à tuer, exclure, humilier au nom de la liberté ?

This book explores the concept of abstraction as both a central method of philosophical inquiry and a process that inevitably encounters multiple forms of limitation. Through logical, epistemological, ontological, linguistic, existential, and mystical perspectives, it examines how abstraction can clarify, distort, transcend, or collapse into self-reference and emptiness. It argues that while abstraction is essential for conceptual thought, it also risks severing ties with lived experience, language, and meaning.

This book explores how meaning, often assumed to be a stable or innate feature of reality, is in fact a constructed phenomenon — shaped, transmitted, and manipulated through language, cultural systems, economic structures, and ideology. Drawing on thinkers such as Wittgenstein, Lacan, Orwell, and contemporary cultural critics, the text unpacks how language limits thought, how culture recycles and fossilizes symbolic forms, and how capitalism turns meaning into a consumable commodity.

Explore the profound power of zero, not as an ethereal void, but as the fundamental marker of absence. This book delves into how zero, through the rational process of diminishing quantities, provides the essential boundary between something and nothing. Discover its crucial role in defining value, enabling concepts like debt, equilibrium, and the nuanced understanding of 'almost gone.' Uncover why zero is not a mystical entity, but a logical necessity for comprehending the complete spectrum of quantitative relationships.

In Humanity and Human Sexuality: The Origin and Nature of Sexual Preference, Dr. Kevin Franklin embarks on an extraordinary exploration of the human being, of mind, and their potential. Delving deep into themes of confusion and disorder, he unveils how a 'trickster-mind' can hinder an individual's true potential for life and freedom. Drawing from his own profound experiences of childhood psychosis, which once seemed to destine him for a life overshadowed by schizophrenia and the threat of early suicide, Dr. Franklin defies expectations.
