Sinopsis

In "Intentions," Oscar Wilde presents a collection of essays that delve into aesthetics, ethics, and the role of the artist in society, exemplifying his characteristic wit and aphoristic brilliance. Written in a lush, engaging literary style, Wilde explores the idea of art for art's sake, arguing against the moralizing tendencies of his contemporaries. The essays provide a critical reflection on the interplay between beauty, truth, and morality, situated within the broader context of the late Victorian era's cultural clash between rigid moral standards and burgeoning artistic freedom. Oscar Wilde, a leading figure in the Aesthetic Movement, was profoundly influenced by his own experiences navigating the complexities of societal norms and artistic expression. His stand against conventional morality was both personal and philosophical, shaped by his education at Trinity College and his time in Paris, where he encountered diverse artistic movements. "Intentions" serves as a manifesto for his beliefs, revealing his commitment to individuality and the importance of aesthetic pursuits. This thought-provoking collection is essential reading for anyone interested in literary criticism, aesthetic philosophy, or the evolution of modern thought. Wilde's incisive essays challenge readers to reflect on the relationship between art and society, making it a timeless contribution to the discourse on artistic identity and purpose.

    In Spain: What Everyone Needs to Know®, a timely addition to Oxford's What Everyone Needs to Know® series, veteran journalist William Chislett provides political and historical context for Spain's current economic and political predicament. Chislett recounts the country's fascinating and often turbulent history, beginning with the Muslim conquest in 711 and ending with the nation's deep economic crisis, sparked by the spectacular collapse of its real estate and construction sectors in 2010. He explains the country's transition from dictatorship to democracy and covers such issues as the creation of a welfare state, the influx of immigrants, internal strife from the separatist Catalan region, the effects of stringent austerity measures, the strengths and weaknesses of the economy, and how the country can create a more sustainable economic model for the future. In a concise, question-and-answer format that allows listeners to quickly access areas of particular interest, the book addresses a wide range of questions, including: What was the legacy of the Muslim presence between 711 and 1492? How did the Spanish Empire Arise? What were the causes of the 1936-39 Civil War? Why did the Socialists win a landslide victory in the 1982 election? What was the impact of European Economic Community membership? What is the violent Basque separatist group ETA? And more.

    BRAINSPOTTING - Adventures in...

    As a trainee doctor, Andrew Lees was enthralled by his mentors: esteemed neurologists who combined the precision of mathematicians, the scrupulosity of entomologists and the solemnity of undertakers in their diagnoses and treatments. For them, there was no such thing as an unexplained symptom or psychosomatic problem – no difficult cases, only interesting ones – and it was only a matter of time before all disorders of the brain would be understood in terms of anatomical electrical and chemical connections.
    Today, this kind of 'holistic neurology' is on the brink of extinction as a slavish adherence to protocols and algorithms – plus a worship of machines – runs the risk of destroying the key foundational clinical skills of listening, observation and imagination that have been at the heart of the discipline for over 150 years. In this series of brilliant, insightful and autobiographical essays, Andrew Lees takes us on a kind of Sherlock Holmes tour of neurology, giving the reader insight into – and defending – the deep analytical tools that the best neurologists still rely on to diagnose patients: to heal minds and to fix brains.
