Sinopse

In "Tantalus: Or, the Future of Man," F. C. S. Schiller presents a thought-provoking philosophical exploration of human existence, ethics, and the potential paths that humanity may traverse in the future. Written in a compelling narrative style that weaves together elements of philosophy, social critique, and speculative fiction, the book situates itself within the broader tradition of early 20th-century philosophical inquiry, engaging with contemporary debates surrounding determinism, free will, and the moral responsibilities of individuals in an evolving society. Schiller's distinctive perspective invites readers to ponder the intricate relationship between aspiration and reality, positioning humanity's desires as both a driving force and a source of profound discontent. F. C. S. Schiller, a prominent philosopher and an advocate for pragmatism, drew upon his diverse academic background and his immersion in the philosophical debates of his time to craft this ambitious work. His experiences, particularly in the context of the socio-political upheavals of the early 1900s, have undoubtedly influenced his reflections on the future of mankind. Schiller's innovative ideas resonate with the urgent questions of identity, purpose, and community that continue to shape discourse in philosophy and social thought today. This book stands as a compelling invitation for readers who seek to engage with profound philosophical questions about the human condition. Schiller's eloquent prose encourages critical reflection on the trajectory of human progress, making "Tantalus" essential reading for those interested in philosophy, ethics, and the timeless struggles inherent in our desire for meaning and fulfillment.

  • Critical Theory - A Very Short Introduction - cover

    Critical Theory - A Very Short...

    Stephen Eric Bronner

    Critical theory emerged in the 1920s from the work of the Frankfurt School, the circle of German-Jewish academics who sought to diagnose—and, if at all possible, cure—the ills of society, particularly fascism and capitalism. In this book, Stephen Eric Bronner provides sketches of leading representatives of the critical tradition (such as George Lukács and Ernst Bloch, Theodor Adorno and Walter Benjamin, Herbert Marcuse and Jurgen Habermas) as well as many of its seminal texts and empirical investigations. 
     
     
     
    This Very Short Introduction sheds light on the cluster of concepts and themes that set critical theory apart from its more traditional philosophical competitors. Bronner explains and discusses concepts such as method and agency, alienation and reification, the culture industry and repressive tolerance, non-identity and utopia. He argues for the introduction of new categories and perspectives for illuminating the obstacles to progressive change and focusing upon hidden transformative possibilities. In this newly updated second edition, Bronner targets new academic interests, broadens his argument, and adapts it to a global society amid the resurgence of right-wing politics and neo-fascist movements.

    Society was not built with the needs of Black women in mind. As a result, we learn that the only way to feel good about ourselves is to prioritize everyone else's needs over our own. We find our value in being the perfect partner, mother, daughter, employee, and friend. But that is exhausting. Instead of feeling good about how dope we are, we only feel good about what we do for others. 
     
     
     
    Supremacy culture teaches us to hate Black people, to hate women, and to especially hate Black women . . . except when they need us. So in a world where our service is required for acceptance, how could we ever feel good about ourselves while also giving the middle finger to systems of power? How can we live our best lives? The answer: Self-esteem. Self-esteem has been gatekept by the white and male supremacist delusions for far too long. It's time to put power where it actually belongs. 
     
     
     
    In Drink Water and Mind Your Business, Dr. Donna Oriowo helps listeners understand the basic foundations of self-esteem and offers real, meaningful solutions to feel like the most glorious and badass versions of themselves. Based on years of research and Dr. Donna's career as a licensed sex and relationship therapist, this book will help you set boundaries, prioritize your needs, understand your immense worth, and pursue a life that brings you pleasure and joy.

    HO'OPONOPONO - A Christian...

    Christians are called on to examine everything. Ho’oponopono may be integrated into spiritual life by Christians for soul-cleansing and self-healing purposes. There is no need to believe in reincarnation or to worship other Gods. Love, forgiveness, reconciliation, and gratefulness can only lead to a positive state of mind, which may benefit many aspects, from health to success in relationships and business. 
    Christianity and Ho’oponopono recognize that it is God who can cleanse the soul. Our job is to petition the cleaning, for which Ho’oponopono provides an effective method, which may be added to Christian soul-cleaning practices such as prayer, reading the Holy Scriptures, and listening to sermons inspired by biblical teachings. 
    In both traditions, soul-cleansing is a lifelong process. One must make this a way of life. Love, forgiveness, and gratitude bring about joy. We can choose to be free of the painful memories that burden our souls by making this mantra or prayer a habit. 
    This book goes deeply into both traditions to find similarities and insights.
