Sinopsis

Mysterious Lost Books explores the compelling topic of vanished texts and their profound influence on history, religion, and science. By examining what has been lost, the book sheds light on how gaps in our knowledge shape our understanding of the past and future. The destruction of the Library of Alexandria, for example, led to the obliteration of ancient scientific knowledge.

 
The book emphasizes the concept of "cultural amnesia," exploring how the loss of significant works distorts our comprehension of events and impedes progress. The book delves into the disappearance of religious scriptures, scientific discoveries, and literary creations, illustrating the impact on faith, knowledge, and culture. It uses historical records, archaeological findings, and literary analysis to investigate these losses.

 
A key focus is on lost gospels, which offered alternative perspectives on early Christianity. By adopting a narrative non-fiction approach, Mysterious Lost Books presents information in an engaging manner. The book progresses by introducing cultural amnesia, examining specific cases of lost texts, and analyzing their broader implications for contemporary scholarship. It also offers practical considerations for preserving existing texts.

 
This exploration of vanished texts serves as a reminder of the fragility of knowledge and the importance of safeguarding our cultural heritage.

    A powerful exploration of the human capacity for renewal, as seen through Shakespeare and Freud  
     
    In this fresh investigation, Stephen Greenblatt and Adam Phillips explore how the second chance has been an essential feature of the literary imagination and a promise so central to our existence that we try to reproduce it again and again.  
     
    Innumerable stories, from the Homeric epics to the New Testament, and from Oedipus Rex to Hamlet, explore the realization or failure of second chances—outcomes that depend on accident, acts of will, or fate. Such stories let us repeatedly rehearse the experience of loss and recovery: to know the joy that comes with a renewal of love and pleasure and to face the pain that comes with realizing that some damage can never be undone.  
     
    Through a series of illuminating readings, the authors show how Shakespeare was the supreme virtuoso of the second chance and Freud was its supreme interpreter. Both Shakespeare and Freud believed that we can narrate our life stories as tales of transformation, of momentous shifts, constrained by time and place but often still possible. Ranging from The Comedy of Errors to The Winter’s Tale, and from D. W. Winnicott to Marcel Proust, the authors challenge readers to imagine how, as Phillips writes, “it is the mending that matters.” 
     
    “In this scintillating collaboration between our leading Shakespearean and our most trenchant interpreter of Freud, the concept of the second chance keeps gathering momentum and reach. Second Chances is intellectually nimble and emotionally wise.”—Christopher Benfey, author of A Summer of Hummingbirds

    In the Socrates Meets series, Peter Kreeft revives the classic method of bringing philosophy to life through dialogue. In eight innovative volumes, he uncovers the principles, assumptions, and sometimes dangerous conclusions of some of history’s most influential minds.  Each dialogue imagines a purgatory where we can listen in on conversations between Socrates and the great thinkers who, centuries later, picked up the philosopher’s torch. Each conversation investigates one of the philosopher’s key works, a short, readable classic that raises central questions both for philosophy and for life. In this volume, Socrates cross-examines David Hume, the father of modern skepticism and author of An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, exploring human knowledge, causality, miracles, and the idea of the self.
