Ethics

Benedictus de Spinoza

Beschreibung

Benedictus de Spinoza's "Ethics" is a groundbreaking philosophical treatise that explores the nature of reality, human emotion, and the relationship between God and the universe. Written in a geometrical style reminiscent of Euclidean geometry, Spinoza presents his ideas systematically through definitions, axioms, and propositions, forging a unique blend of metaphysics, epistemology, and moral philosophy. The work challenges conventional theology by positing a pantheistic view of God, which reframes divine intelligence as synonymous with the natural order, thereby inviting readers to reconsider the intersection of science and spirituality in the context of the 17th-century Enlightenment movement. Spinoza, a Jewish-Dutch philosopher, was excommunicated from his synagogue for his radical ideas and heretical views, which deeply influenced his philosophical inquiries. This exile from traditional beliefs propelled him to develop a rigorous ethical framework rooted in rationality rather than dogma, emphasizing human freedom and the pursuit of knowledge. His lifelong engagement with the works of Descartes and the scientific advancements of his time provided a fertile ground for formulating his revolutionary ideas in "Ethics." Readers seeking to grapple with profound questions of existence, morality, and the human condition will find "Ethics" both challenging and illuminating. Spinoza's work invites contemplation and encourages the cultivation of reason as a path to understanding the universe and one's place within it, establishing it as essential reading for anyone interested in philosophy, theology, or the sciences.

Policy of Deceit - Britain and...

Peter Shambrook

This is the untold story of Britain's role in the Israel–Palestine conflict. During the First World War, the British High Commissioner in Egypt reached a secret agreement with the Sharif of Mecca. If the Sharif allied with Britain against the Ottomans, after the war an independent Arab state that included Palestine would be established. The Sharif kept his word. The British did not. Instead, two years later Lloyd George's government declared that Palestine would be for the global Jewish community. Through meticulous analysis of official records and private papers, Peter Shambrook exposes how Britain came to betray the Arabs. He debunks the myth that Palestine was never part of the lands guaranteed to the Sharif and details the attempts of successive British governments to prevent the truth from ever becoming public. For anyone interested in the history of the Israel–Palestine conflict, this is a must-read.
