Beschreibung

This unfinished dialogue continues the account of the legendary conflict between ancient Athens and the mighty island empire of Atlantis. It describes the geography, architecture, and eventual moral decline of the Atlantean civilization, which angered the gods. The text serves as a political allegory, contrasting the ideal state with an imperial power corrupted by wealth and ambition. Though incomplete, it is the primary source for the myth of the lost continent.

    Tracks - A Journey Through...

    Tracks: A Journey Through Metroland tells the story of Metroland and the development of suburbia that grew alongside the Metropolitan Railway. Originally the brainchild of eminent Victorians, the Metropolitan grew to become the queen of underground lines, eventually expanding to a point some fifty miles outside London. Author Kevin J. Last describes how the concept of Metroland was an aspiration for several levels of society, promising a better lifestyle well away from the deprivations of wartime. The idea that the working man could live comfortably outside the smoke in individually designed houses would mean that he could also thrive at work, largely due to the regular service offered by the new railway. This was quite exceptional in that, while nominally an underground line, most of the Met's route was above ground and, in length, went far beyond other similar lines, far out into the Buckinghamshire countryside. Not marked on any map, Metroland is as much a concept of the mind as a real place.

    Who the Hell Is Troy Gilbert? is a heartfelt and often humorous nonfiction memoir that captures the life, character, and legacy of a remarkable Texas original. 
    Told through vivid personal memories, family stories, and reflections from friends and loved ones, author Brenda Underwood paints an intimate portrait of Troy Gilbert and the close-knit rural community that shaped him. Set primarily in North Texas, the book brings to life a disappearing way of American small-town living, one rooted in family, hard work, loyalty, and storytelling passed down through generations. 
    From childhood adventures and farm life to friendships, losses, laughter, and resilience, this memoir is as much about place and people as it is about one man. Rich in local color and authentic voice, it reads like a front-porch conversation, honest, affectionate, and unforgettable. 
    This book will resonate with readers who enjoy personal memoirs, family histories, regional Americana, and true stories that celebrate ordinary lives lived extraordinarily well.

    Understanding Kant

    Avec Descartes, Kant est l’auteur phare de la modernité : son influence dans les sciences, la morale, la politique et l’esthétique, est considérable. Une grande partie des dilemmes éthiques (biologie, médecine…) font référence aujourd’hui à la pensée kantienne. Connaître sa philosophie apparaît comme un impératif pour s’orienter à travers les grandes questions qui innervent notre modernité. 
    Le présent ouvrage expose ainsi les traits saillants de la réflexion kantienne et propose une interprétation de celle-ci, rompant avec le cliché d’un Kant humaniste plaçant l’homme au-dessus de tout. Il défend l’idée que l’homme est un des échantillons les plus imparfaits du véritable objet de la pensée kantienne, à savoir l’être raisonnable en général.

    Human, All Too Human by Friedrich Nietzsche provides a comprehensive examination of the human condition as it relates to morality and ethics, foregrounding Nietzsche's radical perspective on the illusory nature of moral systems which rely on rigidly defined categories of good and evil. In doing so, Nietzsche challenges traditional religious interpretations of morality and urges readers to rethink their values through the lens of his own philosophy. Read in English, unabridged.
