Sinopse

In "Laocoon," Gotthold Ephraim Lessing offers a groundbreaking exploration of the interplay between the arts, particularly poetry and visual art, through the lens of a detailed analysis of the classical Laocoön statue. Lessing's literary style is marked by clarity and precision, employing philosophical argumentation to dissect the differences in expression between visual and verbal mediums. Set within the context of the Enlightenment, this work engages with aesthetic theory, challenging the conventions of the time and paving the way for modern critical thought by addressing how emotions and meaning are conveyed differently in art forms. Lessing, a luminary of German literature and a key figure in the advent of German Romanticism, drew inspiration from his diverse intellectual background that encompassed philosophy, theology, and art. His deep engagement with classical works, evident in his upbringing and education, led him to examine the emotional and representational capacities of art, contributing to his argument in "Laocoon" that art should cater to its inherent strengths rather than try to mimic other genres. This seminal text is highly recommended for anyone interested in the philosophy of art and the dynamics of cultural expression. Lessing's insights remain pertinent, making "Laocoon" an essential read for scholars, artists, and anyone intrigued by the fundamental questions of aesthetics.

    The Olive Branch from Palestine

    The Olive Branch from Palestine provides a new narrative of the Palestinian effort to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and offers a bold plan for ending this conflict today, a proposal that focuses on Palestinian agency and the power of the Palestinians to bring about the two-state solution, even in the absence of a fully committed Israeli partner. In part 1, Jerome Segal provides an analytical and historical study of the 1988 Palestinian Declaration of Independence, a remarkable act of unilateral peacemaking through which the PLO accepted the legitimacy of the 1947 Partition Resolution and thereby redefined Palestinian nationalism. In part 2, he proposes a new strategy in which, outside of negotiations, the Palestinians would advance, in full detail, the end-of-claims/end-of-conflict peace plan they are prepared to sign, one that powerfully addresses the Palestinian refugee question and is supported by the refugees themselves yet does not undermine Israel as a Jewish-majority state.

    A powerful, entertaining and, at times, eviscerating commentary on the most controversial of original superfoods. 
     
    Milk. It's in our coffee, on our cereal. We see it in processed form – yoghurt, butter, cheese, skimmed and lactose free. It's there in almond form, or made from oats or soy, and is as lauded as the 'perfect' food or lambasted as not fit for human consumption and a toxic planet killer, depending on who you trust. Which type you drink, whether you were raised on breastmilk, what you think of it, is affected by culture, biology and fashion. How you view it is driven by your gender and your politics, as well as your geography. 
     
    The miracle liquid has suffered an image problem. It has been used to keep people poor, to keep women subjugated, and to build corporate and medical careers. It's been blamed for climate change, the breakdown of human health, and an enabler of the industrial revolution. From perfect food to pariah, milk's role in life has often been debased. 
     
    Milk celebrates the majesty of this noble liquid, and delves into the pretenders to its throne, from formula to Mylk. It looks at the transformation of what a milk-producer eats into one of the most nutrient dense foods available, and how that can be transformed again into the butter, cheese and clotted cream that we know and love today. It's an exploration of the science, history and politics of what makes mammals different from every other life form on earth.
