Sinossi

Alfred William Benn's "The History of Greek Philosophy" (Volumes 1 & 2) offers a comprehensive and critical examination of the evolution of philosophical thought in ancient Greece. Structured thematically rather than chronologically, Benn meticulously explores the contributions of pre-Socratic thinkers, Socrates, and the later philosophical schools. His prose is both eloquent and precise, blending rigorous scholarship with an accessible narrative style that invites readers into the complex world of Greek intellectual culture. The work contextualizes philosophy within the broader tapestry of Greek history, art, and science, making it a vital resource for understanding how these interconnected domains influenced one another. Alfred William Benn was a profound thinker himself and a notable figure in late 19th and early 20th-century philosophy. His background as a scholar of both philosophy and history deeply informed his writing. Benn's desire to trace the origins and development of philosophical thought stems from a commitment to elucidating the profound impact of ancient Greek ideas on modern intellectual discourse, reflecting his belief in the relevance of philosophy to contemporary issues. This two-volume work is highly recommended for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the foundations of Western thought. Scholars, students, and general readers alike will find Benn'Äôs insights enriching, as he not only documents the historical figures and texts but also engages with the philosophical questions that continue to resonate today.

    The influence of the comic book has never been greater, from movies to streaming and beyond, but the journey comics took from little-regarded kids' magazines to literary prize-winning books and global franchises turned on a highly unusual group of writers and artists. Few would have expected a small gathering of British comic book fans and creators in the early 'seventies to be a global cultural pivot-point, but this was the start of a disparate movement of punks, dropouts, and disaffected youths who reinvented a medium and became the imaginative heart of a global success story. 
     
     
     
    Based on years of interviews with a generation of leading writers, artists, and editors, Karl Stock reveals the true story of the wild times, passion, and determination that helped, hindered, and saw the reinvention of comics. 
     
     
     
    Stock brilliantly tells the story of the triumphs and disasters that rewrote the rulebook on what comics could be and who they should be for.

    Among the leaders of the 20th century, arguably none shaped the course of history as much as Vladimir Lenin (1870-1942), the Communist revolutionary and political theorist who led the Bolshevik Revolution that established the Soviet Union. In addition to shaping the Marxist-Leninist political thought that steered Soviet ideology, he was the first Soviet premier until his death and set the Soviet Union on its way to becoming one of the world’s two superpowers for most of the century, in addition to being the West’s Cold War adversary. 
    As it turned out, the creation of the Soviet Union came near the end of Lenin’s life, as he worked so hard that he had burned himself out by his 50s, dying in 1924 after a series of strokes had completely debilitated him. In the initial aftermath of Lenin’s death, Trotsky had been his ally’s heir apparent, and for those inclined to believe the Soviet experiment had started promisingly but gone astray, Trotsky became the embodiment of the betrayed promise of the early Bolshevik revolution. There were certain ironies in this widespread sympathetic interpretation of Trotsky’s legacy, because Trotsky had overseen and spearheaded campaigns of persecution against Russians suspected of “counterrevolutionary” leanings, and he had written a long tract defending these “terroristic” measures as necessary safeguards of the revolution. 
    Near the end of his life, Lenin expressly stated that the regime's power should not be put in the hands of the current General Secretary of the Communist Party, Joseph Stalin. Of course, Stalin managed to do just that, modernizing the Soviet Union at a breakneck pace on the backs of millions of poor laborers and prisoners. If Adolf Hitler had not inflicted the devastation of World War II upon Europe, it’s quite likely that the West would consider Stalin (1878-1953) the 20th century’s greatest tyrant.
