Sinossi

In "Kant's Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics," Immanuel Kant articulates a foundational inquiry into the nature, limitations, and possibilities of human knowledge. Framed as an accessible guide to his critical philosophy, this work seeks to address the essential question of how metaphysics can emerge as a legitimate science. Kant employs a rigorous yet precise literary style, enriched with systematic argumentation and clear exposition, which challenges existing metaphysical frameworks while seeking a common ground between empiricism and rationalism. This text serves as a precursor to his more extensive critiques, emphasizing the need for a critical examination of the faculties of human reason. Immanuel Kant, an eminent figure of the Enlightenment, wrote this work in response to the controversies surrounding metaphysics during his time, particularly the opposing schools of thought advocating for rationalism and empiricism. His revolutionary ideas on epistemology and ethics, alongside his grounding in mathematics and physics, provided him with a unique lens through which to analyze the metaphysical claims prevalent in philosophical discourse. His endeavor reflects both his intellectual heritage and his pioneering attempts to redefine the boundaries of philosophy. "Kant's Prolegomena" is an essential read for anyone interested in the development of modern philosophy. It is invaluable for scholars, students, and general readers alike, as it not only clarifies Kant's thought but also confronts fundamental questions that continue to resonate in contemporary philosophical inquiries. This text invites readers to reconsider the possibility of metaphysics as a meaningful enterprise, making it indispensable for a deeper understanding of Kant's broader philosophical project.

The Families of Eleanor of...

J.F. Andrews

The lives of the sons of Eleanor of Aquitaine are the stuff of legend. Her daughters, however, are less well known, and the fascinating personalities of her daughters-in-law have been almost entirely overlooked, as have those of the daughters she bore Louis VII of France. 
 
 
 
The Families of Eleanor of Aquitaine redresses this balance and showcases the lives, travels, and careers of these ten very different women, who formed a great international network of political alliances that linked their parents, siblings, husbands, and children all across Europe and the Holy Land. 
 
 
 
Some of these women found happiness; others endured lives of turmoil and conflict. Some of them were close; others never met. But two things linked them all: their connection to Eleanor and to the kingdoms over which she reigned—and their determination to exert authority on their own terms in a male-dominated world.

Ancient Myths And Nazi...

Davis Truman

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
A chilling exposé of how one of history’s most infamous regimes distorted the ancient past to engineer a deadly future. 
In Ancient Myths and Nazi Propaganda, Davis Truman unveils the shocking ways Adolf Hitler and the Nazi elite co-opted classical mythology, archaeology, and pseudo-history to fabricate the myth of Aryan supremacy. Drawing from original documents, Nazi-era publications, and modern scholarship, this groundbreaking work exposes how ancient symbols and legends were weaponized to create a false historical narrative, one that fueled genocide, war, and the darkest chapter of the twentieth century. 
From misused Greco-Roman iconography to twisted interpretations of Indo-European migration theories, Truman traces the roots of Nazi ideology through a manipulated lens of antiquity. He explores how fabricated “evidence” of ancient Aryan civilization was used to justify racial purity laws, territorial expansion, and the cultural erasure of entire populations. 
With compelling clarity and academic precision, Ancient Myths and Nazi Propaganda offers a powerful warning: when history is rewritten to serve an ideology, the consequences are catastrophic. 
Perfect for readers of history, politics, WWII studies, and anyone seeking to understand how ancient and modern myths can be used to manipulate truth and justify atrocity.

Egyptomania - Our Three Thousand...

PhD Bob Brier

The world has always been fascinated with ancient Egypt. When the Romans conquered Egypt, it was really Egypt that conquered the Romans. Cleopatra captivated both Caesar and Marc Antony and soon Roman ladies were worshipping Isis and wearing vials of Nile water around their necks. What is it about ancient Egypt that breeds such obsession and imitation? Egyptomania explores the burning fascination with all things Egyptian and the events that fanned the flames—from ancient times, to Napoleon's Egyptian campaign, to the discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb by Howard Carter in the 1920s. For forty years, Bob Brier, one of the world's foremost Egyptologists, has been amassing one of the largest collections of Egyptian memorabilia and seeking to understand the pull of ancient Egypt on our world today. In this original and groundbreaking book, he explores our three-thousand-year-old fixation with recovering Egyptian culture and its meaning. He traces our enthrallment with the mummies that seem to have cheated death and the pyramids that as if they will last forever. Drawing on his personal collection—from Napoleon's twenty volume Egypt encyclopedia to Howard Carter's letters written from the Valley of the Kings as he was excavating—this is an inventive and mesmerizing tour of how an ancient civilization endures in ours today.
