Sinopse

In 'Yale Required Reading - Collected Works (Vol. 1),' readers are invited to immerse themselves in an anthology that draws from a rich tapestry of ancient thinking and literary artistry. This collection showcases a breathtaking range of styles and genres, from the sweeping epics and poignant dramas to the penetrating philosophical discourses, all reflecting the dynamism of classical antiquity. The diversity within these works underscores a universe of human experience and intellectual pursuit, moving seamlessly between the theatrical grandeur of Attic tragedy and the meticulous detail of historical accounts. Each piece presents a distinct yet interconnected narrative that affords new insights into the ancient world's profound discussions on morality, politics, and the human condition. The anthology gathers luminaries such as Aristotle, Plato, Euripides, and more, each contributing a distinct voice to align with the towering intellectual and cultural paradigms of their time. Their collective oeuvre reflects the profound influence of key historical and literary movements, cultivating a dialogue that traverses the boundaries of epistemology, poetics, and pedagogy. This collection not only foregrounds the diversity of thought prevalent in antiquity but also emphasizes the enduring legacy of these thinkers, contextualizing their relevance to contemporary discourse. 'Required Reading' offers a remarkably comprehensive exploration of classical literature, serving both as an essential educational resource and an engaging compendium for those seeking a multifaceted understanding of ancient perspectives. It invites readers to explore the foundational texts that have shaped Western thought and encourages a reconsideration of perennial questions through the diverse lenses of celebrated intellectuals and dramatists. This volume represents a unique intersection of intellectual exploration and aesthetic appreciation, providing invaluable insights into the myriad complexities of the classical era.

  • Heaven in Disorder - cover

    Heaven in Disorder

    Slavoj Žižek

    As we emerge (though perhaps only temporarily) from the pandemic, other crises move center stage: outrageous inequality, climate disaster, desperate refugees, mounting tensions of a new cold war. The abiding motif of our time is relentless chaos. 
     
     
     
    Acknowledging the possibilities for new beginnings at such moments, Mao Zedong famously proclaimed, "There is great disorder under heaven; the situation is excellent." The contemporary relevance of Mao's observation depends on whether today's catastrophes can be a catalyst for progress or have passed over into something terrible and irretrievable. Perhaps the disorder is no longer under, but in heaven itself. Characteristically rich in paradoxes and reversals that entertain as well as illuminate, Slavoj Žižek's new book treats with equal analytical depth the lessons of Rammstein and Corbyn, Morales and Orwell, Lenin and Christ. It excavates universal truths from local political sites across Palestine and Chile, France and Kurdistan, and beyond. 
     
     
     
    Heaven In Disorder looks with fervid dispassion at the fracturing of the Left, the empty promises of liberal democracy, and the tepid compromises offered by the powerful. From the ashes of these failures, Žižek asserts the need for international solidarity, economic transformation, and—above all—an urgent, "wartime" communism.
