The Philosophy of Giambattista Vico

Benedetto Croce

Sinopse

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.

The Turnaround Leader -...

Wes Wheeler

From Ashes to OpportunityI see that my purpose—my love—is fixing things. Families, after my dad left. Businesses, struggling to survive. Boats, deserving of glory instead of ashes. —Wes WheelerWes Wheeler has spent his life fixing things. From a young age, the New York native witnessed the decline of his family’s multi-generational boat business, watching it, quite literally, burn to the ground. While sorting through the ashes of the once successfully run company alongside his father, Wheeler’s future was decided for him. Instead of succumbing to the idea that businesses disintegrate and leave behind hordes of unemployed workers, their mission buried beneath burned bridges and abandoned dreams, Wheeler opted to arm himself with a work ethic built on faith, drive, and dogged determination.In The Turnaround Leader, Wheeler recounts his decades of managing projects for rising and falling companies, reshaping organizations, and restructuring business models to stand the test of time. Wheeler’s lifetime of ambition was launched during his humble beginnings as a paper delivery boy, where he discovered the little shifts that make a big difference, from the way he angled the papers he threw, to how he engaged with customers and mapped out his routes. These tiny lessons compounded over time and bolstered him while he faced difficult economic headwinds and ill-suited business leaders that preceded him, his most rewarding challenge being his leadership role during the COVID-19 pandemic. In a world where business models are rapidly changing and employment is never promised, Wheeler’s ability to adapt is both inspiring and achievable.
