  Kant Today - A Survey

  Erich Przywara

  In Kant Today: A Survey, Erich Przywara explores the enduring impact of the tensions inherent in Immanuel Kant’s thought on continental philosophy over nearly a century and a half. Drawing parallels to the efforts at synthesis of Thomas Aquinas, Przywara presents Kant as a thinker striving to reconcile disparate currents of contemporary thought. While Aquinas fused neo-Platonic Augustinian philosophy with the neo-Aristotelianism of the Parisian Arts Faculty, Kant sought to harmonize continental idealism with the skepticism and empiricism exemplified by a British thinker like David Hume.   Aquinas’s synthesis maintained coherence due to his reliance on the analogia entis. In contrast, Kant’s synthesis lacked such a unifying principle, leading to the proliferation of philosophical antitheses reverberating throughout nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century Europe. Kant Today chronicles the aftermath of Kant’s tumultuous synthesis and suggests that the resolution may lie in a thinker capable of uniting Augustine’s fervent pursuit of God with Aquinas’s distinctive epistemological equilibrium—namely, John Henry Newman.

  Escaping America in World War...

  Though it’s often overlooked today, during World War II, the United States held hundreds of thousands of enemy prisoners of war, and the country was unprepared for the influx, despite the fact that only weeks after the attack on Pearl Harbor, the government started detaining Japanese Americans and foreigners from Axis countries. Some camps, used for training Army recruits, were repurposed as prison camps, and the experience of building camps for the 120,000 Japanese and Japanese Americans was useful in building camps for the POWs. In addition to the Japanese, about 31,000 German, Japanese, and Italian residents were placed in camps.  
  	At first, there were few POWs because it took months for the American military to get ready to participate in campaigns. The first POW was a Japanese sailor who’d survived the sinking of his midget submarine at Pearl Harbor. The first German prisoners were survivors of U-boats sunk off the American coasts. There were also a few hundred German and Italian merchant sailors on ships seized in American ports (these sailors were interned as enemy aliens, not POWs). 
  	Soon, the prisoners came in waves. A sizable number came to the US at the request of Britain, which had too many prisoners and sent tens of thousands to Canada and the US. The first large number of enemy POWs captured by American forces came at the end of the North Africa campaign in May 1943, when the Allied forces trapped most of the vaunted Afrika Korps in Tunisia (then a French colony) and forced it to surrender. About 280,000 German and Italian troops surrendered. These were different from later prisoners; they tended to be volunteers, with many of them fervent Nazis (if German) and diehard Fascists (if Italian). They were generally confident of an ultimate German victory.

  German Autumn

  Stig Dagerman

  In the aftermath of World War II, Germany lay in ruins - its cities bombed, its people starving, its identity fractured. In German Autumn, Swedish journalist Stig Dagerman delivers a raw and unfiltered account of life in occupied Germany during the fall of 1946. 
  Through a series of deeply personal and vividly detailed reports, Dagerman goes beyond political narratives, capturing the human cost of war with compassion and insight. He walks through decimated cities, speaks with civilians, former soldiers, and refugees, and exposes the moral and physical struggles of a defeated nation. Neither excusing nor condemning, he presents an honest, haunting portrait of a society grappling with guilt, survival, and the slow process of rebuilding. 
  First published in 1947, German Autumn remains one of the most powerful works of war reportage - an urgent and poetic reflection on the consequences of destruction, the resilience of humanity, and the role of a writer in times of crisis. 
  A gripping and essential historical document—perfect for readers of war journalism, postwar history, and political literature.

  "Beware of the Narcissist: Mastering the Art of Identifying and Counteracting Narcissism in Relationships and in One Self" uniquely merges two insightful books into one indispensable guide, offering a comprehensive understanding of narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) from both an interpersonal and personal standpoint. This two-in-one volume, authored by Michael Wright and Larry Tate, becomes an essential tool for navigating the complexities of narcissism. 
  In the first part of this combined edition, "Narcissism Decoded" by Michael Wright, the focus is on the dynamics of NPD in relationships. Wright offers a detailed exploration of how narcissists' self-centered behavior impacts their partners, providing readers with the knowledge to identify narcissistic traits, understand their origins, and tackle the difficulties that arise in such relationships. The book also shares critical advice on coping strategies, recognizing toxic relationship patterns, and explores available treatments for those involved with narcissists. 
  Complementing this, the second part, "Are You a Narcissist?" by Larry Tate, invites readers to reflect inwardly. It serves as an ultimate guide to self-assessment for narcissistic traits, offering a mirror to those who might be sliding towards narcissistic personality disorder. Tate's insightful analysis covers the repercussions of an inflated self-image on personal relationships, the challenges in professional environments, and the darker aspects of narcissism, including rage and contempt. 
  Together, these books provide a dual perspective on narcissism. "Beware of the Narcissist" is more than a guide; it's a deep dive into understanding and mitigating the impacts of narcissistic behaviors in relationships and within oneself.
