Jean Jacques Rousseau

Sinopse

The Collected Works of Jean-Jacques Rousseau is a comprehensive anthology encapsulating the revolutionary ideas of one of the Enlightenment's most influential thinkers. This volume features Rousseau's significant writings, including his treatises on natural human goodness, societal corruption, and the fundamental principles of political philosophy. Through a blend of autobiographical narrative, philosophical argumentation, and social critique, Rousseau employs a lyrical yet rigorous style that challenges conventional views of civilization. His reflections on education in "Emile, or On Education" and governance in "The Social Contract" illuminate the complex relationship between individuals and society, offering profound insights on freedom, equality, and the human condition. Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) was born in Geneva, Switzerland, and experienced a tumultuous life that deeply influenced his writings. His formative years were marked by personal and societal struggles, including unstable family life and a rejection of established norms. As a key figure in the development of Romanticism and modern political theory, Rousseau's works reflect his belief in the innate goodness of humanity and the corrupting influence of society, driven by a desire for authenticity and truth amidst the constraints of his time. Rousseau's collected works are essential reading for anyone interested in philosophy, political science, or social theory. They invite readers to engage with questions of human nature and social justice, encouraging critical reflection on contemporary societal structures. This anthology not only showcases Rousseau's groundbreaking ideas but also serves as a crucial touchstone for understanding the trajectory of modern thought.

Shadow Work for Core Wounds -...

Ora North

If you experienced emotional trauma in childhood—neglect, parentification, physical or sexual abuse, or unhealthy family dynamics—your core wounds may be deep or even hidden. You may struggle with relationships, or feel like you just don't belong. And if you've sought refuge as a spiritual seeker, you may feel alienated by the dogmatic and inevitably shallow "love and light" spirituality scene that can often bypass real struggles of mental health, trauma, and loss. It's time for an in-depth approach to healing. 
 
Ora North will lead you on a journey to uncover and better understand your shadow self, allowing you to integrate unconscious aspects of yourself, shore up repressed emotions, and tap into the self-awareness necessary to heal core wounds. You'll explore nine archetypes of the self, including the shadow self, the higher self, the wounded self, the creative self, and more. And finally, you'll discover strategies to help you continue this journey on your own, such as tapping into your intuition, energy work, inner child healing, and boundary setting. If you're seeking lasting change in your life, this book goes beyond the toxic positivity and "good vibes" only aspects of popular spirituality to help you heal the emotional wounds at your very core—allowing you to fully understand who you are, and feel truly connected with the world around you.
