  Becoming machines 400 Years of...

  For four centuries, the modern world has been dominated by machinery. It was born with capitalist production. It quickly became symbiotic with capitalist development, which found its driving force in mechanics. Calculation, predictability, the power of abstraction - the categories of modern science were well suited to this new mode of production, which was about to invade the planet. However, all trends that lead to the elimination of life in favor of the mechanical lead to a general commodification of human life and a loss of our being-in-the-world. Turning nature into a mere raw material, replacing vital processes with mechanical procedures - all this leads to treating human beings as things, turning them into predictable beings. We therefore need to think in terms of resistance to this movement. The involution of the great Enlightenment movement towards the formation of a techno-scientific steel cage poses the task of rediscovering a sense of nature and life, of rethinking rootedness beyond what Simone Weil had outlined, of remaking nature as a sphere of resonance.

  Medieval Knights - Historical...

  A knight is a person who has been granted the honorary title of knighthood by a head of state, including a monarch or the Pope, in recognition of their service to the ruler, the church, or the nation, often in a military capacity. The origins of knighthood can be traced back to classical antiquity, where similar figures existed in ancient Greece and Rome, such as the Greek hippeis and hoplite, as well as the Roman eques and centurion. 
  Knighthood first emerged among mounted soldiers in Europe during the Early Middle Ages. At this time, it was typically associated with those who fought in battles on horseback, a hallmark of the knightly class. During the High Middle Ages, the concept of knighthood evolved, and it became increasingly seen as a position held by lesser aristocrats. It was no longer just about military service but also connected with ideals of chivalry, a code of conduct that governed the behavior of Christian warriors, particularly those involved in courtly matters. By the Late Middle Ages, a knight had come to represent the archetypal courtly Christian warrior, combining military prowess with a sense of honor and duty. 
  Knights were often vassals to powerful lords, serving as elite combatants, bodyguards, or even commanders of military forces in exchange for land or other forms of patronage. They had a special relationship with their lords, who relied on their skills, particularly in mounted combat, to protect their interests and defend their territories. This connection between knights and horseback riding is reflected in many words associated with knighthood, such as "chivalry," "cavalier," and other related terms. In this context, the knightly status in Christendom parallels the military class known as the furusiyya in the Islamic world.

  How to Do the Right Thing - An...

  How ancient Stoicism can help teach us to treat others—and ourselves—more fairly and mercifully 
   
   
   
  There are times when we've all felt that we haven't been treated as we deserve—that we've been misjudged, shortchanged, or given a raw deal. And, at one time or another, other people have probably felt that we've treated them just as unfairly. How to Do the Right Thing draws on the principles of ancient Stoicism as articulated by the Roman statesman and philosopher Seneca to help listeners better navigate one of the most important practical questions of daily life—how to do right by others. 
   
   
   
  Starting from the virtue of magnanimity—the opposite of small-mindedness—How to Do the Right Thing draws together lessons from Seneca's writings that stress the importance of calm and clear thinking, of judging oneself fairly before judging others, and of cutting people slack, with a bias toward mercy—all delivered in crisp and lively new translations.
