Summary

Long before Babylon and Assyria rose to power, there was Ebla—a thriving empire that dominated trade and diplomacy in the ancient Near East. For centuries, its wealth and influence stretched across modern-day Syria, shaping the course of history. Then, just as swiftly as it ascended, Ebla vanished, buried beneath the sands of time.
 
 
 
Ebla: The Rise and Ruin of an Ancient Empire unearths the fascinating story of this forgotten civilization. Through groundbreaking archaeological discoveries and deciphered clay tablets, this book explores Ebla’s political strategies, economic power, and cultural achievements. It delves into its rivalries, alliances, and the mysterious destruction that led to its downfall.
 
 
 
What caused the collapse of one of the ancient world’s greatest cities? Was it war, internal strife, or something more enigmatic? This book brings Ebla’s lost legacy back to life, offering a gripping narrative of ambition, prosperity, and ultimate ruin in an empire long overshadowed by history.

    This book consists of the following two philosophers: 
- Anaximander: Anaximander is best known for his revolutionary ideas about the cosmos. He proposed that the universe originated from the apeiron, an indefinite or boundless substance, which he believed was the source of all things. This concept marked a significant departure from the mythological explanations of the cosmos prevalent in his time, suggesting instead a naturalistic origin of the universe. His cosmological model, which included the idea of a cylindrical Earth suspended in space, demonstrated a sophisticated understanding of celestial mechanics for his era. 
- Thales: In addition to his contributions to philosophy, Thales was also a mathematician and astronomer, and his influence in these fields is considerable. He is credited with being the first to predict a solar eclipse, using his understanding of the stars and celestial movements. His work in geometry is equally important—he is famously known for Thales’ Theorem, which laid the groundwork for the development of geometry. This theorem states that if two points are on a circle, and a line is drawn through them, then the center of that line will always lie on a straight line through the center of the circle. This geometric insight shows his ability to understand and systematize mathematical concepts that were previously unexamined.

    “The Future of Our Educational Institutions” is a work by Friedrich Nietzsche, originally delivered as a series of five public lectures at Basel University in 1872. In this work, Nietzsche critically examines the attempt in 19th-century Germany to make education public, and its inherent politicisation. He points out the deep contradictions within the gymnasium system and argues against the exploitation of youth by the State for its own purposes. Nietzsche presents a radical challenge to the existing educational institutions and practices, arguing that education in modernity is a lost cause.

    Corpse Care relates the history of death care in the US to craft robust, constructive, practical ethics for tending the dead. It specifically relates corpse care to economic, environmental, and pastoral concerns. 
 
 
 
Death and the treatment of the dead body loom large in our collective, cultural consciousness. The authors explore the materiality and meaning of the dead body and the living's relationship to it. All the biggest questions facing the planetary human community relate in one way or another to the corpse. Surprisingly, Christian communities are largely missing in the discussion of the dead, having abdicated the historic role in care for the dead to the funeral industry. Christianity has stopped its reflection about the body once that body no longer bears life. Corpse Care stakes a claim that the fact of embodiment, this incarnational truth, this process of our bodily becoming, is a practical, ethical, and theological necessity.
