Beschreibung

In "The History of Greek Philosophy," Alfred William Benn embarks on an ambitious exploration of the intellectual legacy of ancient Greece, weaving together the thoughts and contributions of philosophers from the pre-Socratic era through to the Hellenistic period. Benn's literary style is characterized by its analytical rigor and contextual depth, as he deftly situates philosophical ideas within the broader tapestry of Greek culture and history. Engaging with primary texts and influential figures such as Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, Benn presents a narrative that is both comprehensive and accessible, reflecting the evolving nature of philosophical inquiry and its impact on Western thought. Alfred William Benn, a 19th-century English philosopher and historian, was deeply influenced by the intellectual currents of his time, including the rise of empiricism and the scientific method. His academic background and fascination with philosophy equipped him with the tools necessary to rigorously assess the contributions of ancient philosophers while critically examining their relevance in contemporary discourse. Benn's own philosophical inquiries resonate throughout the book, as he strives to elucidate the complexities and nuances of Greek philosophical traditions. This work is highly recommended for scholars and students alike, as it offers a foundational understanding of Greek philosophy's evolution and its enduring influence. Readers seeking to grasp the origins of Western thought will find Benn's exhaustive research and insightful commentary compelling, making this a pivotal addition to any philosophy library.

    What is art? A mere imitation of life or something far greater—an act of creation that reveals the soul of the universe? Ralph Waldo Emerson, the philosopher-poet of American transcendentalism, elevates art beyond the canvas, beyond words, beyond form itself. In this essay, he explores the divine spark within creativity, arguing that true art is not bound by technique or tradition but flows from the spirit of the artist, a force both mysterious and essential.
    Emerson's vision is not for the passive observer but for those who seek to understand art as a living energy, a reflection of the highest truths. He sees the poet, the painter, the sculptor not as mere craftsmen but as visionaries, shaping the world with the raw power of imagination. Art, in its purest form, is not just a product—it is a revelation.
    For artists, dreamers, and seekers of meaning, Art is an invitation to look beyond the surface, to see beauty not as decoration but as a force that shapes existence itself. Read Emerson and rediscover art as you have never seen it before—alive, infinite, and transcendent.

    The Middle East today is characterized by an astonishingly bloody civil war in Syria, a highly racialized and militarized approach to the concept of a Jewish state in Israel and the Palestinian territories, an Iraqi state paralyzed by the emergence of class- and region-inflected sectarian identifications, a Lebanon teetering on the edge of collapse from the pressures of its huge numbers of refugees and its sect-bound political system, and the rise of a wide variety of Islamist paramilitary organizations seeking to operate outside all these states. 
     
     
     
    The region's emergence as a "zone of violence," characterized by a viciously dystopian politics of identity, is a relatively recent phenomenon, developing only over the past century; but despite these shallow historical roots, the mass violence and dispossession now characterizing Syria, Lebanon, Israel/Palestine, and Iraq have emerged as some of the twenty-first century's most intractable problems. In this study, Laura Robson uses a framework of mass violence—encompassing the concepts of genocide, ethnic cleansing, forced migration, appropriation of resources, mass deportation, and forcible denationalization—to explain the emergence of a dystopian politics of identity across the Eastern Mediterranean in the modern era and to illuminate the contemporary breakdown of the state from Syria to Iraq to Israel.
