Summary

The Collected Works of Immanuel Kant presents a definitive compendium of the pivotal writings of one of the foremost thinkers of the Enlightenment. This extensive anthology encapsulates Kant's revolutionary ideas on metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and aesthetics, notably from key texts such as "Critique of Pure Reason" and "Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals." The literary style oscillates between rigorous philosophical discourse and accessible prose, showcasing Kant's methodical approach to inquiry and his ambition to reconcile empirical reality with rational abstraction. Contextually, these works mark a significant paradigm shift, positioning Kant as a central figure in the transition from rationalism to idealism, influencing a myriad of philosophical traditions that followed. Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) was a German philosopher whose intellectual journey was deeply rooted in the scientific and philosophical currents of his time, including the work of Leibniz and Hume. His formative years experienced the blossoming of the Enlightenment, which challenged established doctrines and emphasized reason as a guide for human understanding. This milieu undoubtedly shaped Kant'Äôs exploration of the limits of human knowledge and the moral implications of autonomy, leading to his profound existential inquiries. I highly recommend The Collected Works of Immanuel Kant to anyone keen to engage with foundational philosophical ideas that continue to resonate in contemporary discourse. This anthology not only serves as a vital reference for scholars and students alike but also invites general readers to grapple with profound questions regarding human nature, knowledge, and morality.

    A gripping tale of resilience and survival that offers hope to others who have experienced family violence and suffered at the hands of a sibling.A deeply personal and heart-breaking memoir that explores the troubled relationship between Mary Garden and her younger sister, Anna, who died in 2023 after a short illness. Mary unpacks her life of growing up in New Zealand in the 1950s and ’60s, before making Australia home. She reveals complex layers of intergenerational trauma, including the baggage of her eccentric, deeply flawed father and the secret her mother kept from all of them, revealed only after her death. Mary deals movingly with her sister’s long battle with mental illness and how she once saved Anna’s life. As she unravels these narratives, Mary touches on the guilt and shame familiar to anyone who has had to deal with secrets, violence and ‘madness’ in their family. And she shines a light on sibling abuse, the most common form of abuse in the context of family violence ‒ occurring up to five times as frequently as spousal or parental child abuse ‒ although it is often dismissed as ‘sibling rivalry’. It causes far-reaching, long-lasting harm.

  • Beyond the Secret Garden - The Life of Frances Hodgson Burnett - cover

    Beyond the Secret Garden - The...

    Frances Hodgson Burnett's favorite theme in her fiction was the reversal of fortune, and she herself knew extremes of poverty and wealth. Born in Manchester in 1849, she emigrated with her family to Tennessee because of the financial problems caused by the cotton famine. From a young age she published her stories to help the family make ends meet. Only after she married did she publish Little Lord Fauntleroy that shot her into literary stardom. 
     
     
     
    On the surface, Frances' life was extremely successful: hosting regular literary salons in her home and travelling frequently between properties in the United Kingdom and America. But behind the colorful personal and social life, she was a complex and contradictory character. She lost both parents by her twenty-first birthday, Henry James called her "the most heavenly of women" although avoided her; prominent people admired her and there were many friendships as well as an ill-advised marriage to a much younger man that ended in heartache. Her success was punctuated by periods of depression, in one instance brought on by the tragic loss of her eldest son to consumption. 
     
     
     
    Ann Thwaite creates a sympathetic but balanced and eye-opening biography of the woman who has enchanted numerous generations of children.
