Philosophy

Bertrand Russell

Sinopsis

In "Philosophy," Bertrand Russell offers a comprehensive exploration of fundamental philosophical questions that have shaped human thought. Written with a clarity that transcends the era it was penned in, this book covers a broad range of topics, including the nature of reality, the limits of human knowledge, and the intricacies of language and logic. Its literary style combines rigorous argumentation with accessible prose, situating Russell within the analytic tradition of philosophy, which emphasizes logical clarity and empirical validation. The historical context enriches the text, as it engages with both classical philosophical ideas and the burgeoning modern scientific worldview of the early 20th century. Bertrand Russell, an eminent philosopher, logician, and social critic, was deeply influenced by the tumultuous political landscape of his time, as well as by his rich academic background in mathematics and philosophy. His quest for understanding the human condition often intersected with his fervent advocacy for peace, rational thought, and social justice. It was his unique perspective, shaped by personal experience and intellectual rigor, that drove him to articulate the complexity of philosophical inquiry in a manner accessible to a broad audience. "Philosophy" is an essential read for anyone seeking to cultivate a deeper understanding of philosophical concepts that underpin contemporary discourse. Russell's insights not only challenge the reader's preconceptions but also inspire a profound appreciation for the interplay between philosophy and everyday life. This text stands as a vital contribution to the field, making it indispensable for students, scholars, and general readers alike.

Akhenaten the Nephilim God King...

RYAN MOORHEN

Except for Cleopatra, no ruler of Ancient Egypt has provoked a greater flow of ink from the pens of historians, archaeologists, moralists, novelists, and Nephilim Researchers than the Pharaoh Akhenaten, who governed almost half the civilized world for a brief span during the fourteenth century BC. The reason for all this lively interest is easy to see, and he was the greatest Nephilim of them all. The historians, searching the conscious and unconscious that masquerades as the official records in Ancient Egypt, are often at a loss to protect the ruler's personality beneath all his trappings of power, the man beneath the divinity. In folktales with their element of sardonic ribaldry, the Nephilim Pharaoh is seldom represented as having human aspects. He is more significant than life in official utterances, a mere personification of kingship: only the office has any individuality, and the temporary holder is always cast in the same mold. 
With Akhenaten, however, there is a departure from the norm. Here is a Nephilim Pharaoh who ostensibly broke with the sacrosanct traditions of a millennium and a half and showed himself as a human being in the intimate circle of his family, dandling his Nephilim offspring, kissing his wife or taking her on his knee, or leading his mother by the hand. Here is a ruler who does not appear as the all-conquering hero of gigantic size slaughtering the foes of Egypt or as the aloof divine King greeting one of the many deities as an equal. Here was a poet credited with having written hymns to his Nephilim God, which expect the Psalms of David, who introduced a new and vital art style of his conception to express his novel ideas. Above all, here is a courageous innovator who abandoned the worship of the multifarious gods of Ancient Egypt in their human and animal forms and substituted for them an austere monotheism with an abstract symbol by which to represent it.

复数语法范畴的跨语言对比与习得研究（英文）

苏画弦

内容简介：
《复数语法范畴的跨语言对比与习得研究》在生成语法框架内分析了复数语法范畴在汉语、英语、韩语中的共性和差异，并考察了英语母语者和韩语母语者对汉语复数语法范畴的习得情况。其中，跨语言对比研究以最简方案（Chomsky 2000, 2001; Pesetsky & Torrego 2007）的特征核查机制为理论基础，分析了汉语"们"、英语复数标记-s、韩语复数标记-tul的句法和语义异同，同时也分析了汉语量词重叠的复数义及其句法推导过程。依据特征重组假说（Lardiere 2009），二语学习者需对母语复数表征所涉及的特征集合进行拆分，进而重组出二语复数表征所需的特征集合。本书通过实证研究验证了这一假说，并深入分析了复数语法范畴习得中特征重组的方式和过程。本研究的理论意义在于深度分析了复数语法范畴在量词语言和非量词语言中的表征异同，尤其是在最简方案框架内对复数标记以及与之相关的量词和指示代词的句法推导进行了统一分析，并将理论分析所得出的特征及其组合方式应用于二语习得实证研究中，使母语迁移的内容、方式和结果更加简明清晰。实证研究结果扩展了对量词语言中复数语法范畴习得的认识，深化了对特征重组的方式和过程的了解。
