Sinopsis

The Collected Works of Henri Bergson is a profound exploration of the philosophical concepts of time, consciousness, and creativity through a series of essays and lectures that span more than three decades. Bergson's literary style is characterized by eloquence and clarity, engaging readers with his intuitive approach to philosophical inquiry. His work is set against the backdrop of early 20th-century thought, positioning him in critical dialogue with contemporaries such as Kant and Nietzsche, while drawing on elements of dynamism and the fluid nature of human experience. This compilation resonates deeply with the currents of existentialism and modernism, making it a vital text for understanding the evolution of contemporary philosophy. Henri Bergson, a French philosopher awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1927, was deeply influenced by the intellectual climate of his time, which emphasized rationality and scientific inquiry. His upbringing in a Jewish family and exposure to diverse cultural ideas motivated him to challenge the strictly mechanistic views of reality, leading him to emphasize intuition and the lived experience. His pioneering ideas around 'élan vital' or vital impetus reflect his belief in the perpetually evolving and creative aspects of life. For those seeking a nuanced understanding of consciousness and the human experience, The Collected Works of Henri Bergson is indispensable. This anthology not only provides a comprehensive view of his philosophical evolution but also invites readers to engage with profound questions about existence, making it essential reading for scholars, students, and anyone curious about the depths of human thought.

    Zeus is a god of apparent paradox: sublimely regal yet ridiculously fickle, a giver of laws but a slave to his own passions, a being of incredible power who is desperate to possess that which he cannot have. As the leader of the Greek pantheon on Mount Olympus, Zeus was the god of kingship (and the associated elements of law, oaths, the state and the protection of property) and the god of storms, controlling lightning, wind and thunder.  
    	In many ways, one of ancient Greece’s most complex gods is also the most understandable, since he seems so human, and because there is plenty of information about him that survived, including the original legends about his birth, his early deeds and his many relationships with other gods, lovers, and humans. Furthermore, scholars have been able to analyze the historical roots of "Zeus" as a concept, identifying what gods he is related to among other cultures, where the legends of Zeus originated, and what this information says about the ancient Greeks.  
    	One of the reasons Zeus remains one of the most recognizable gods in history is because of the spread of his influence. Due to the conquests of Alexander the Great, Zeus was brought along with other elements of Hellenization to Egypt and the Near East, and a few centuries later, Rome all but adopted him as their own chief god, Jupiter. From there, he was exported around the Roman Empire and fused with numerous other local gods in the process. Ultimately, Zeus was a prominent god from the period of pre-recorded history until the Christianization of Greece, which was complete by the early 7th century A.D.

    A hopeful memoir about adapting when life doesn't go to plan, redefining family, and creating your own path. 
     
     
     
    One afternoon, Emma Nadler gets a call from her daughter's doctor that changes her life forever. Faced with the realities of raising a child with a rare genetic condition, Nadler must confront her preconceptions of motherhood and her perfectionistic beliefs. 
     
     
     
    Nadler—who also happens to be a psychotherapist—offers a rare window into the unconventional ways she and her family adapt to their improbable path. Every relationship in her life—with herself, her husband, children, friends, and even clients—is reimagined as she navigates the heartbreak and hilarity of her daily life. 
     
     
     
    As she and her husband join the 53 million caregivers in the US, Nadler wrestles to belong in a society that devalues both caregivers and people with disabilities. She challenges the scripts that mothers should be martyrs, or that self-sacrifice is a necessary component of love. Nadler illustrates the complexity, grief, and joy of living an unexpected life, all with the wisdom of a therapist, the heart of a loving parent, and the ingenuity of a queer woman who refuses to be shackled by cultural expectations.

    Essays: First Series Spiritual Laws

    Ralph Waldo Emerson's Spiritual Laws is more than an essay—it's an invitation to align with the rhythm of the universe. With clarity and poetic force, Emerson strips away illusions of control, urging us to trust the quiet power within.
    For him, law isn't rigid or imposed; it's a natural flow, always present, waiting to be recognized. True self-reliance isn't defiance but harmony with this deeper order. The world moves for those who walk with conviction. The awakened soul follows a path beyond logic, yet never loses its way.
    Emerson doesn't instruct; he sparks something. He challenges us to trust our instincts, see beyond the immediate, and embrace the grand design at play.
    Part of his groundbreaking Essays: First Series, Spiritual Laws remains a timeless call to authenticity. Step into its pages, and you may just step into yourself.

    A study of the spiritual practices developed by the nineteenth-century American Transcendentalist movement and a case for their necessity today. 
     
     
     
    "The stern old faiths have all pulverized," Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote in 1860. "'Tis a whole population of gentlemen and ladies out in search of religions." Often seen as a mainspring of the nineteenth-century literary tradition and the preserve of New England intellectuals in retreat from society, American Transcendentalism is more accurately described as a religious movement. In Transcendentalism and the Cultivation of the Soul, Barry M. Andrews shows how Transcendentalists developed rich spiritual practices, nurtured their souls, and discovered the divine. The practices they adopted are common and simple—among them, keeping journals, contemplation, walking, reading, simple living, and conversation. As Emerson, Thoreau, Fuller, and others pursued meaningful and rewarding spiritual lives, they were inspired to fight for abolition, women's rights, and education reform. In approachable and accessible prose, Andrews uncovers a wealth of spiritual practices that are of particular value for today's spiritual seekers and religious liberals.
