Beschreibung

In "Nicomachean Ethics," Aristotle explores the nature of human happiness and the path to achieving a virtuous life. Written in a didactic yet accessible style, the text synthesizes empirical observations with philosophical inquiries, providing a foundational perspective on ethics that bridges both moral theory and practical application. Aristotle meticulously categorizes virtues, distinguishing between intellectual and moral types, and presents the concept of the "Golden Mean," where ethical behavior lies between extremes. This work, set against the backdrop of Classical Greek philosophy, engages with contemporaneous ethical debates and serves as a pivotal reference in Western moral thought. Aristotle, one of the most influential philosophers in history, draws upon his extensive experience as a student of Plato and as a teacher at the Lyceum. His wide-ranging inquiries into biology, politics, and metaphysics culminate in this ethical treatise, reflecting his belief that philosophical contemplation must inform practical living. Aristotle's scholarly backdrop and his commitment to exploring the intricacies of human character are evident throughout the text, inviting readers to ponder the relationship between virtue and personal fulfillment deeply. "Nicomachean Ethics" is an essential read for anyone interested in ethics, philosophy, or the human experience. Aristotle's profound insights offer timeless guidance, prompting readers to reflect on their moral frameworks and the pursuit of a fulfilled life. This enduring work not only enriches one's understanding of virtue but also poses vital questions about personal responsibility and the essence of true happiness.

    The Punic Wars were a series of three major conflicts fought between the Roman Republic and the ancient city-state of Carthage from 264 BC to 146 BC. These wars were pivotal in shaping the balance of power in the ancient Mediterranean, ultimately resulting in the complete destruction of Carthage and the rise of Rome as the dominant power in the region. 
    The first war, known as the First Punic War, began in 264 BC, centered around the strategic island of Sicily. According to the Greek historian Polybius, it was “the longest and most bitterly waged battle in history.” The conflict ignited when Rome’s growing imperial ambitions clashed with Carthage’s established control over the island. Carthage, a formidable maritime power with a vast network of colonies across the western Mediterranean, saw Sicily as vital to its prosperity. Rome, a land-based power with a strong army but a comparatively weak navy, sought to challenge Carthage’s dominance at sea. Over the course of the war, naval engagements dominated, and the conflict resulted in significant losses for both sides. Despite initial setbacks, Rome ultimately prevailed after 23 years of intense fighting, inflicting severe losses on the Carthaginian fleet and forcing Carthage to pay massive reparations. The island of Sicily became Rome’s first province, marking a significant step in the Republic’s expansion. The end of the First Punic War also saw the outbreak of the Mercenary War within Carthage’s borders, a revolt by Carthaginian soldiers who had not been paid, further weakening the empire.

    A collection of the most influential speeches by Marcus Tullius Cicero, Rome’s greatest orator and statesman, The Orations of Cicero showcases his rhetorical brilliance, political principles, and defense of the Roman Republic. Spanning legal arguments, public denunciations, and philosophical reflections, these speeches reveal Cicero’s efforts to uphold justice, combat corruption, and resist the rise of autocracy—most notably in his fierce opposition to Mark Antony in the Philippics . Written with eloquence and moral conviction, Cicero’s orations remain foundational texts in the study of rhetoric, law, and classical political thought. They offer invaluable insight into the turbulent final years of the Roman Republic and the mind of a man who believed deeply in the power of words to shape history, preserve liberty, and defend the rule of law.

    Advocacy is a tricky pursuit in Singapore. Your motives can be questioned, your activities monitored, and your scope for action limited.  Despite the constraints, civil society activists have persisted, finding ways to pursue their cause and to try to bring about the changes they believe important for Singapore. 
     
     
    In 2013 a small group of civil society stalwarts set out to acknowledge the contributions of these unsung heroes. The Singapore Advocacy Awards was launched, a 3-year project that saw a total of 18 individuals and organisations being honoured. 
     
     
    In this book, 37 activists, many of them winners of the Awards, write about their causes and discuss the strategies shaped and lessons learnt as they practise the delicate art of advocacy in Singapore. Reflecting the nature of civil society, there is a diversity of voices.  Some give a more personal account, while others describe the institutional experience of advocacy work. Some essays are short and sweet, others long and detailed. They appear ordered alphabetically by the cause.
