Beschreibung

In the "HENRY BERGSON Premium Collection," this anthology encapsulates the pioneering philosophies of Henri Bergson, notably his explorations of time, consciousness, and metaphysical intuition. Utilizing an eloquent and reflective literary style, Bergson presents complex ideas, inviting readers to engage with philosophical thought through a visceral, almost poetic lens. Contextually situated within the early 20th-century philosophical landscape, this collection embodies a reaction against the mechanistic views of time and reality prevalent in positivism, offering instead a vibrant perspective that emphasizes the fluidity of experience and the vitality of living phenomena. Henri Bergson, a French philosopher active during a period marked by rapid scientific advancement and sociocultural shifts, drew on diverse influences including psychology, art, and literature. His life experiences, notably his Jewish heritage and his education in the rigorous environment of the √âcole Normale Sup√©rieure, contributed to his innovative ideas that challenged the deterministic philosophies of his time. Bergson's unique insights into the nature of time and consciousness earned him significant acclaim, ultimately culminating in the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1927. This collection is essential for anyone interested in the evolution of modern philosophy, providing a comprehensive introduction to Bergson's groundbreaking thoughts. By engaging with this anthology, readers will not only deepen their understanding of Bergson'Äôs major works but also gain valuable insights into the connections between intuition, creativity, and the essence of human experience.

    Anthony Trollope - A Very Short...

    Anthony Trollope is among the best-loved novelists in the English language. His strongly drawn characters and skillful plots are compelling, while his moral judgements are often subtly challenging. He is an entertainer, but his power to make his readers think, and to feel, is unrivalled. 
     
     
     
    This Very Short Introduction will place Trollope's work in the context of his life and times, drawing on recent scholarship to illuminate his central interests and literary strategies. The major series of novels (the six novels located in the fictional Barsetshire, and the six Palliser novels) are explored alongside the novels set in Ireland, his travel writing, and his less well-known fiction. 
     
     
     
    Trollope's work is energized by the complexities of the Victorian Britain, with its political tensions, its troubled views of the relation between men and women, its expanding place in the wider world, and its growing discomfort with the contradictions created by a corrosive preoccupation with wealth and display. But Trollope's writing is of more than historical interest. His insight into the motives of human behavior and of the conflict between the need for reform and the wish to defend what might be destroyed by the pressure for change, feels surprisingly modern. Birch shows how his writing has retained its vivid appeal to new generations of readers.

    Since the 2002 implementation of No Child Left Behind, the American public education system has been fundamentally changed. Excessive testing, standardized curriculums, destructive demands on children, corporate-­style evaluations, and top-­down mandates have become the norm. In response, record numbers of demoralized educators have quit, and millions of students have been left educationally impoverished. This troubling transformation has been exhaustively critiqued by scholars and commentators. Yet one crucial voice has been missing. 
     
     
     
    In Testing Education, Kathy Greeley recounts the impact of education reform from a teacher's point of view. Based on a teaching career ranging nearly forty years, Greeley details how schools went from learning communities infused with excitement, intellectual stimulation, and joy to sterile spaces of stress, intimidation, and fear. In this ultimately hopeful memoir, Greeley asks us to learn from the past to reimagine the future of public education.
