Sinossi

Samuel Taylor Coleridge's "Biographia Literaria" stands as a seminal text in the realm of literary criticism, intertwining autobiography with critical analysis. Written in a hybrid style that melds philosophical discourse with poetic reflection, Coleridge explores the nature of poetry, the creative process, and the qualities that define literary genius. This work is often viewed within the context of the Romantic era, as it delves deeply into the relationship between the individual poet and the wider world, grappling with themes of imagination, inspiration, and the ethical responsibilities of the writer. Coleridge, a pivotal figure in the Romantic movement alongside contemporaries like Wordsworth, was influenced by his own tumultuous experiences—ranging from his struggles with addiction to his philosophical inquiries into the human condition. His dual pursuits of philosophy and poetry informed his belief in the necessity of imagination as a bridging force between reality and transcendence. "Biographia Literaria" thus emerges not only as a reflection of Coleridge's insights into literature but also as a window into his own artistic soul. For scholars, students, and enthusiasts of literature, "Biographia Literaria" is essential reading, offering profound insights into both the creative psyche and the nature of art itself. Coleridge's work invites readers to reconsider their perceptions of poetry and art while providing a philosophical underpinning that continues to resonate in contemporary literary discussions.

    Enquiry Concerning Human...

    "An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding" is a philosophical work written by David Hume in the 18th century. It is one of the most influential works in Western philosophy and is considered a cornerstone of modern empiricism and skepticism. 
    In this book, Hume investigates the nature and limits of human knowledge, arguing that all knowledge is based on our experiences and observations of the world. He asserts that we cannot know anything beyond what we have observed or experienced, and that there is no rational basis for many of the beliefs that we hold. 
    Hume's philosophy is deeply skeptical, and he questions many of the traditional ideas of Western philosophy, including causation, induction, and the existence of God. He argues that our beliefs in these concepts are not based on reason, but rather on habit or custom, and that they cannot be rationally justified. 
    Hume also explores the nature of morality and human nature, arguing that moral judgments are based on sentiment rather than reason, and that human beings are fundamentally motivated by self-interest rather than by any innate moral principles. 
    Overall, "An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding" is a profound and influential work that challenges many of the fundamental assumptions of Western philosophy. It is notable for its skepticism and empiricism, and for its rejection of many traditional metaphysical and theological concepts.

    Divested - Inequality in the Age...

    Finance is an inescapable part of American life. From how one pursues an education, buys a home, runs a business, or saves for retirement, finance orders the lives of ordinary Americans. And as finance continues to expand, inequality soars. 
     
     
     
    In Divested, Ken-Hou Lin and Megan Tobias Neely document how the ascendance of finance on Wall Street, Main Street, and among households is a fundamental cause of economic inequality. They argue that finance has reshaped the economy in three important ways. First, the financial sector extracts resources from the economy at large without providing commensurate economic benefits to those outside the financial services industry. Second, firms in other economic sectors have become increasingly involved in lending and speculative investing, which weakens the demand for labor and the bargaining power of workers. And third, the shift of risks and uncertainties once shouldered by unions, corporations, and governments onto families escalates the consumption of financial products, which in turns exacerbates wealth inequality. 
     
      
     
    A clear, comprehensive, and convincing account of the forces driving economic inequality in America, Divested warns us that the most damaging consequence of the expanding financial system is not simply recurrent financial crises but a widening social divide between the have and have-nots.

    An Evil Shadow Falls'By Wise Guidance, you can wage your war'The Sam Holloway TrilogyAn Evil Shadow Falls is the final part of the Sam Holloway trilogy, in which the former Special Forces officer and her team of warrior contractors face their most dangerous mission yet, in a wild adventure that starts in London and ends in armed intervention and death on the high seas. A nuclear warhead had gone missing and a terrorist mastermind, inspired by the events of 9/11 and a fanatical vision of Armageddon is planning a mass-casualty attack against the West that can only be measured in the metrics of madness. The Security and Intelligence agencies must make sense of a complicated jigsaw puzzle of clues, technical intercepts, source reports, and inputs from foreign intelligence services if they are to prevent Ground Zero 2. In a race against time, Sam's team, now including an unlikely ally, a refugee from London's postcode drug wars, and an MI5 agent within ISIS must find the deadly device before it detonates. The last book in the Samantha Holloway series starts in London, has its back story in the wild mountains of Afghanistan, and ends on a stormy night in the mid-Atlantic, with the Special Boat Service on standby and ready to deploy from a Royal Navy warship in support of the Spartan team. But even the best-laid plans rarely survive contact with the enemy, and the team must draw on all their combined skills and courage if they are to thwart a murderous plot that carries with it a horrifying echo of an all-too-possible future reality.***** Brilliant, been there, done that, Delaney nails the authenticity once again...'***** An audible treat that had me hooked to the end...'***** The action races off the page!***** Wow!! What a cracking story!***** This is essentially a ‘rattling good yarn’, a highly topical good vs evil adventure story, fast-paced and packed with incident.
