Beschreibung

Arthur Schopenhauer's seminal work, "The World as Will and Idea," presents a profound philosophical exploration of reality through the lenses of perception and metaphysics. Blending rich metaphysical inquiry with a rigorous critique of reason, Schopenhauer posits that the underlying essence of the world is the 'Will'—an irrational force driving all existence. His prose, marked by eloquence and depth, challenges the Enlightenment's reliance on rationality, positioning intuition and desire at the heart of human experience. This philosophical tapestry is woven through his earlier influences, including Kant and Eastern philosophies, specifically Buddhism, highlighting a unique synthesis in the Western philosophical canon. Schopenhauer, a lonely figure in 19th-century philosophy, experienced the turbulence of personal struggles and intellectual isolation, which profoundly shaped his worldview and writing. His pessimistic outlook, rooted in the belief that suffering is inherent to existence, drives the themes of this work. His rejection of prevailing ideals of optimism in society positioned Schopenhauer as a precursor to existential thought, capturing the complexities of human experience with compassion and insight. "The World as Will and Idea" is essential reading for anyone seeking to grapple with the darker aspects of human existence and the motivations that govern our lives. Schopenhauer's eloquence invites readers to reflect deeply on their own experiences of desire, suffering, and the quest for understanding, challenging them to uncover the deeper will that resides within.

    Cindy Savett’s The Breath is a riveting meditation on grief and resilience. Savett’s vivid, resonant poems create a language for renewal out of the urgent “phantom tongue” of loss. The Breath casts an honest, empathetic eye on the grief process, leading us, achingly, “into the stable of vanished gods” and encouraging us to “pace / within the flame” of absence--to reimagine loss as a transformative practice that can redeem the “hush / left behind.”

    "A Contribution to the Critique of Political Economy" is a work by Karl Marx, which he wrote in 1859. This work serves as a precursor to his more famous and extensive work, "Das Kapital." In this earlier work, Marx explores key concepts and ideas that later form the basis of his critique of capitalist society. 
    In this text, Marx delves into the economic and social structures of his time, examining the fundamental principles of political economy. He critiques various economic theories and thinkers, providing insights into his evolving thoughts on capitalism, labor, and the relationships between different classes in society. While not as comprehensive as "Das Kapital," this work lays the groundwork for Marx's later analyses and remains an essential piece for understanding his economic and philosophical perspectives.

    The Tensaw River introduces one of the American South's richest and most fertile natural features. Author Mike Bunn is director of Historic Blakeley State Park, which is nestled in a prominent bend of the majestic Tensaw River. 
     
     
     
    Forming the eastern boundary of the expansive Mobile-Tensaw Delta, the Tensaw has had little industrial development. Left largely undisturbed, the river flows free and bountiful into the grand estuary of Mobile Bay in ways that would be recognizable to Native Americans centuries ago and to pioneers who arrived before Alabama became a state. 
     
     
     
    Bunn's unforgettable stories in The Tensaw River trace the construction and occupation of the Bottle Creek site, an important mound complex built by Southeastern Native Americans a millennia ago. Nearby Blakeley is an antebellum ghost town whose lost memories tease the imagination. During the Civil War, the boom of artillery fire in the battle that sealed the fate of the city of Mobile echoed along the bends in the Tensaw. 
     
     
     
    Located near popular travel destinations, the Tensaw's "Forgotten Cultural Heritage Corridor" is a gateway to the enchanting beauty of—and humankind's relationship to—the landscape of the American South.
