Summary

In "Moral Philosophy: Ethics, Deontology and Natural Law," Joseph Rickaby presents a comprehensive examination of the fundamental principles of moral philosophy, weaving intricate discussions on ethics, the intricacies of deontological ethics, and the natural law tradition. His prose elegantly balances accessibility with scholarly rigor, making complex philosophical themes relatable. Set against the backdrop of the late 19th-century intellectual discourse, Rickaby draws upon the works of prominent figures such as Aquinas and Kant to explore the intersections of moral duty and human agency, offering readers a rich tapestry of ideas that resonate with contemporary ethical dilemmas. Joseph Rickaby, a Jesuit priest and philosopher, was profoundly influenced by both his religious background and the pressing moral questions of his time. His academic work was characterized by a synthesis of faith and reason, which shaped his approach to moral philosophy. This context, combined with his role as a lecturer at various institutions, enabled him to engage deeply with the philosophical challenges of his era, ultimately leading to the creation of this essential text that reflects both a personal and a universal quest for understanding human morality. I highly recommend "Moral Philosophy: Ethics, Deontology and Natural Law" to scholars and students of philosophy alike, as well as anyone interested in the moral frameworks that govern human behavior. Rickaby's insights encourage readers to reflect on their ethical beliefs and the philosophical principles that underlie them, making this book an indispensable resource for those seeking to navigate the complex moral landscape of the modern world.

    When novels became a thing around the seventeenth century, it was all thrilling. It wasn't possible for readers to say, “This is unoriginal, this has been done before, this is a good or bad novel.” Every novel was an innovation. As time progressed, a framework for the conventional novel emerged: a linear narrative, stories about people growing up or falling apart, compelling characters, and definite conclusions that provide emotional satisfaction. 
    In How to Read Novels Like a Professor (2008), Thomas C. Foster dives deep into each of these elements, using his own set of laws for the novel to help readers increase their understanding. He backs up his explanations with a wealth of vivid literary examples that will make you want to read every novel he mentions.

    The Vatican is a landlocked, independent city state and enclave in Rome, Italy. The Vatican City State, also called the Vatican, acquired independence from Italy in the year 1929 with the Lateran Treaty, and it is a different terrain under the Holy See's "full ownership, special rule, and sovereign authority and jurisdiction," which makes sure the city state's temporal, diplomatic, and spiritual independence. 
    This is one of the world’s most unique states/countries, something that is definitely worth understanding. With about 1.4 billion Catholics, in the world, it can be worth your while to study this guide to understand where their leadership and headquarters are situated, and what they do.

    When you think of Ancient Greece and Rome, what do you see? The Acropolis and the Colosseum? Perhaps the philosophy of Plato and Aristotle and the rule of the Caesars? Or the birth of democracy and the vast reach of an empire? This well-trodden history of great thinkers, military leaders, and early state formation in the classical world still enthralls us, but it tells only half the story . . . 
     
    How democratic was Athenian democracy? How much power did states wield beyond their city walls? And who looked upon the systems of domination that prevailed and sought to create something different? 
    Radical Antiquity takes you on a unique journey in search of anarchy, statelessness, and social experimentation in the Graeco-Roman world. Sweeping across the Mediterranean from the time of the first Olympic Games in 776 BCE until the emergence of Islam in 610 CE, Christopher B. Zeichmann introduces the listener to communities of escaped enslaved people, pirates, and religious sects—all of whom sought a more egalitarian way of life that avoided the coercion, hierarchy, and exploitation of the state. This history from below brings the experiences of ordinary and marginal people out of obscurity and radically expands our understanding of social and political life in the classical world.
