The Power of the Self - A Journey Through Individuality

Pasquale De Marco

Sinopse

Individualism is a complex and multifaceted concept that has been a dominant force in shaping Western thought and society for centuries. This book explores the concept of individualism from its historical roots to its contemporary manifestations. It examines the different ways in which individualism has been interpreted and applied in various fields of thought and practice, and considers the challenges and critiques that individualism has faced over time.

One of the key themes explored in this book is the relationship between individualism and society. Individualism is often seen as being in tension with collectivism, which emphasizes the importance of the group over the individual. The book examines the ways in which individualism and collectivism have been balanced or reconciled in different societies and cultures.

Another important theme considered in this book is the relationship between individualism and the state. Individualism has often been seen as a threat to state power, as it emphasizes the rights and autonomy of the individual. The book examines the ways in which states have attempted to accommodate or suppress individualism, and the impact that this has had on the development of both individualism and the state.

Finally, the book explores the relationship between individualism and technology. Technology has the potential to both empower and constrain individuals. The book examines the ways in which technology can be used to promote individual freedom and autonomy, as well as the ways in which it can be used to control and surveil individuals.

This book provides a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of individualism. It is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the history, development, and future of individualism in our increasingly interconnected and globalized world.

Children of Mars - The Origins...

Jeremy Armstrong

Before the Romans could become masters of the Mediterranean, they had to first conquer the people of their own peninsula. This book explores the origins of Roman imperialism and the creation of Rome's early Italian empire, bringing new light and interpretations to this important but problematic period in Roman history. It explains how and why the Romans were able to expand their influence within Italy, often through the use of armed conflict, laying the foundations for their great imperial project. 
 
 
 
This book critically reexamines and reframes the traditional literary narrative within an archaeologically informed, archaic Italian context. Jeremy Armstrong presents a new interpretation of the early Roman army, highlighting the fluid and family-driven character which is increasingly visible in the evidence. Children of Mars argues that the emergence of Rome's empire in Italy should not be seen as the spread of a distinct "Roman" people across Italian land, but rather the expansion of a social, political, and military network amongst the Italian people. Armstrong suggests that Rome's early empire was a fundamentally human and relational one. While this reinterpretation of early Roman imperialism is no less violent than the traditional model, it alters its core dynamic and nature, and thus shifts the entire trajectory of Rome's Republican history.
