    Understanding Kant

    Avec Descartes, Kant est l’auteur phare de la modernité : son influence dans les sciences, la morale, la politique et l’esthétique, est considérable. Une grande partie des dilemmes éthiques (biologie, médecine…) font référence aujourd’hui à la pensée kantienne. Connaître sa philosophie apparaît comme un impératif pour s’orienter à travers les grandes questions qui innervent notre modernité. 
Le présent ouvrage expose ainsi les traits saillants de la réflexion kantienne et propose une interprétation de celle-ci, rompant avec le cliché d’un Kant humaniste plaçant l’homme au-dessus de tout. Il défend l’idée que l’homme est un des échantillons les plus imparfaits du véritable objet de la pensée kantienne, à savoir l’être raisonnable en général.

There he is, going from house to house, village to village, battlefield to gallows, unravelling knots and problems, physical, emotional and psychological; a new kind of cunning man, not always welcome, not always quite as clever as his fingers and picks would have him believe.

    In his work On Interpretation, Aristotle seeks to uncover the underlying principles of language and meaning. He begins by examining the nature of signs and symbols, and how they are used to communicate information. He then goes on to explore the relationship between language and reality, and how our understanding of words is shaped by our experience of the world. Ultimately, Aristotle concludes that language is a tool for understanding reality, and that its meaning is determined by the way we use it. Read in English, unabridged.

    "The Analysis of Mind" by Bertrand Russell is a philosophical book that explores the nature of the mind and consciousness. In this work, Russell argues that mental phenomena can be analyzed and understood through the principles of logic and mathematics. He posits that the mind can be divided into two categories: the "conscious mind" and the "unconscious mind". The conscious mind is the part of the mind that we are aware of, while the unconscious mind is the part that we are not aware of but which still influences our behavior. Read in English, unabridged.
