Synopsis

The Collected Works of Immanuel Kant presents a comprehensive anthology of Kant's groundbreaking philosophical oeuvre, encompassing critical contributions to metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and aesthetics. With a unique blend of dense rational argumentation and profound insights into human nature, Kant challenges readers to navigate the complexities of morality and the limits of human understanding. His categorical imperative and the notion of the 'thing-in-itself' form pivotal elements of his thought, reflecting the Enlightenment's quest for knowledge while simultaneously acknowledging the inherent constraints of reason. Written in the characteristic style of the German Idealist movement, these works invite rigorous engagement and reflection. Immanuel Kant, a central figure in the history of Western philosophy, was born in 1724 in Königsberg, Prussia. His intellectual endeavors were shaped by the tumultuous context of the Enlightenment, where he sought to reconcile empirical knowledge with rationalist traditions. His lifelong dedication to philosophy and the systematic exploration of metaphysical issues directly influenced his writings, leading him to articulate a moral framework that has enduring relevance. This collection is an essential resource for anyone seeking to delve into Kantian thought, offering invaluable insights into questions of morality, epistemology, and human autonomy. Its rich content is a must-read for philosophers, students, and general readers eager to explore the profound implications of Kant's ideas in contemporary discourse.

A Rare Recording of President...

Calvin Coolidge

Calvin Coolidge (July 4, 1872 - January 5, 1933) was the 30th president of the United States from 1923 to 1929. Born in Vermont, Coolidge was a Republican lawyer from New England who climbed up the ladder of Massachusetts state politics, becoming the state's 48th governor. His response to the Boston Police Strike of 1919 thrust him into the national spotlight as a man of decisive action. Coolidge was elected the country's 29th vice president the next year, succeeding the presidency upon the sudden death of President Warren G. Harding in 1923. Elected in his own right in 1924, Coolidge gained a reputation as a small-government conservative distinguished by a taciturn personality and dry sense of humor, receiving the nickname "Silent Cal".

The Middle Way and other essays

M. O'C. Walshe

This is an audiobook of Bodhi Leaves No.99 by M. O’C. Walshe, "The Middle Way and other essays" found in the Pariyatti Edition of Collected Bodhi Leaves Vol. IV.

Excerpt:
"It is always a good idea to seek the middle way, or the golden mean, between extremes whether in politics, in one’s personal view and behaviour, or in fact in any walk of life. The difficulty arises when we attempt to discover what, in practice, is the middle way. It is not, as some appear to suppose, the mid-point between truth and falsehood, or between right and wrong! In fact the middle way itself is true, and is right: the difficulty lies merely in finding it. Here are some examples: it is the mean between (as the Buddha said) self-indulgence and self-mortification, or (the same thing as applied to other persons and animals) between pampering and cruelty.

"The middle way, even at a fairly modest, mundane level, is not very popular in the world today. Probably it never was. But in these restless times it is perhaps especially needed, and at the same time especially hard to achieve. It is fatally easy to indulge in nostalgia, to conjure up a false and idealised picture of earlier times which in fact, whatever period of history we may envisage, all had their grave disadvantages of one kind or another. All the same, until recent times it may be said that, in general, life usually had a kind of placidity that has now been lost, and which is hard to recapture, except in the atmosphere of some temple, church, meditation centre or the like. This, however, may simply mean that in earlier times the tendency towards sloth and indolence was, on the whole, greater than that towards worry and flurry."
