Benedetto Croce

Casa editrice: DigiCat

Sinossi

In "The Philosophy of Giambattista Vico," Benedetto Croce delves into the intricate tapestry of Vico's thought, elucidating how history, culture, and language interweave in the development of human consciousness. Croce employs a nuanced literary style that marries philosophical rigor with historical context, enabling a profound exploration of Vico's rejection of the rationalism of his contemporaries. He presents Vico's concept of "verum ipsum factum," emphasizing that truth is not merely discovered but is also created through the human experience, showcasing Vico's importance within the intellectual currents of the 18th century and his influence on modern philosophical discourse. Benedetto Croce, an eminent Italian philosopher and historian, was deeply influenced by the struggles of his time, including the philosophical debates surrounding idealism and historicism. His background in both the arts and philosophy, combined with a commitment to cultural revival, led him to articulate a compelling vision of Vico's insights into the cyclical nature of history and knowledge. Croce's admiration for Vico, a figure often overshadowed in Enlightenment discourse, reflects his broader aim to validate the role of humanities in understanding societal progress. This scholarly work is essential for those who seek to grasp the foundational ideas that underpin contemporary thought on history and culture. Croce's interpretative lens offers readers an entry point into Vico's ideas, making complex philosophical concepts accessible. Enthusiasts of philosophy and intellectual history alike will find Croce's analysis not only enlightening but instrumental in appreciating the relevance of Vico's ideas in the modern era.

Anger Management - Techniques...

Coral Nunez

Anger is a powerful emotion that can impact our lives in profound ways. It can arise in moments of frustration, disappointment, or perceived injustice, and, if left unchecked, can lead to regrettable actions and damaged relationships. While anger is a natural and normal response, learning to manage it effectively is crucial for maintaining healthy connections, achieving personal growth, and finding inner peace. When we allow anger to control us, it can fuel conflicts, impact our mental and physical health, and create barriers to personal and professional success.
Effective anger management is about more than suppressing or ignoring angry feelings; it’s about understanding, channeling, and transforming those feelings in constructive ways. This requires self-awareness, discipline, and a commitment to self-improvement. Through recognizing the underlying causes of anger, we can begin to address the root issues rather than simply reacting to the symptoms. Mastering anger management allows us to regain control over our emotional responses and, ultimately, our lives.
This book provides a comprehensive approach to managing anger by combining practical techniques, psychological insights, and real-life applications. Whether you’re someone who frequently experiences intense anger or simply looking to improve emotional balance, this guide offers tools to help you navigate challenging situations with clarity and control. Each chapter is designed to address different aspects of anger, from recognizing triggers and practicing immediate calming techniques to implementing long-term strategies for lasting emotional balance.
