Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le Lezioni sulla filosofia politica di Spinoza sono la trascrizione di un corso seminariale tenuto da Leo Strauss nell’autunno del 1959, consistente in 16 sessioni sul Trattato teologico-politico e sul Trattato politico. Nonostante non si tratti di materiale pensato per la pubblicazione, il testo fornisce utili indicazioni sulla decisiva interpretazione di Spinoza da parte del filosofo tedesco. Si è creduto a lungo che la seconda fase del pensiero di Strauss, a partire dagli anni Cinquanta, in cui si accentua la riflessione critica sulla modernità, sia coincisa con una progressiva perdita di interesse nei confronti di Spinoza. Queste lezioni possono invece presentarsi come trait d’union tra gli studi spinoziani giovanili e il confronto finale con il filosofo olandese, avvenuto nel 1962 in occasione della scrittura della prefazione all’edizione americana de La critica della religione in Spinoza del 1930. Con la pubblicazione di queste pagine, si rende disponibile l’ultimo tassello per la comprensione del rapporto Spinoza-Strauss, uno dei dialoghi più fecondi della filosofia politica del Novecento.

Book excerpt: On Tyranny is Leo Strauss’s classic reading of Xenophon’s dialogue Hiero, or Tyrannicus, in which the tyrant Hiero and the poet Simonides discuss the advantages and disadvantages of exercising tyranny. Included are a translation of the dialogue from its original Greek, a critique of Strauss’s commentary by the French philosopher Alexandre Kojève, and the complete correspondence between the two.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Often considered a secularizing force in the rise of the nation state, natural law was called upon in the defence of the early-modern confessional states. The fourteen chapters of this volume show how religious and legal thought around natural and biblical law interacted and combined in the new Christian states of Lutheranism, Calvinism and Catholicism. The volume addresses also questions of political legitimacy, civic and ecclesiastical authority, societal stability, conceptions of common good, liberalism's value pluralism (and its pretence), toleration and the lingering humanist project of determining "who are we", issues that were then important as they are now. Contributors are: Dominique Bauer, Thomas Behme, Hans Blom, Jiří Chotaš, Alberto Clerici, Stefanie Ertz, Arthur Eyffinger, Heikki Haara, Mads Langballe Jensen, Adriana Luna-Fabritius, Denis Ramelet, József Simon, and Markus M.

Download or read book Socialism of Fools written by Michele Battini and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Socialism of Fools, Michele Battini focuses on the critical moment during the Enlightenment in which anti-Jewish stereotypes morphed into a sophisticated, modern social anti-Semitism. He recovers the potent anti-Jewish, anticapitalist propaganda that cemented the idea of a Jewish conspiracy in the European mind and connects it to the atrocities that characterized the Jewish experience in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Beginning in the eighteenth century, counter-Enlightenment intellectuals and intransigent Catholic writers singled out Jews for conspiring to exploit self-sustaining markets and the liberal state. These ideas spread among socialist and labor movements in the nineteenth century and intensified during the Long Depression of the 1870s. Anti-Jewish anticapitalism then migrated to the Habsburg Empire with the Christian Social Party; to Germany with the Anti-Semitic Leagues; to France with the nationalist movements; and to Italy, where Revolutionary Syndicalists made anti-Jewish anticapitalism the basis of an alliance with the nationalists. Exemplified best in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, the infamous document that "leaked" Jewish plans to conquer the world, the Jewish-conspiracy myth inverts reality and creates a perverse relationship to historical and judicial truth. Isolating the intellectual roots of this phenomenon and its contemporary resonances, Battini shows us why, so many decades after the Holocaust, Jewish people continue to be a powerful political target.
Download or read book Body Consciousness written by Richard Shusterman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-01-07 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary culture increasingly suffers from problems of attention, over-stimulation, and stress, and a variety of personal and social discontents generated by deceptive body images. This book argues that improved body consciousness can relieve these problems and enhance one's knowledge, performance, and pleasure. The body is our basic medium of perception and action, but focused attention to its feelings and movements has long been criticised as a damaging distraction that also ethically corrupts through self-absorption. In Body Consciousness, Richard Shusterman refutes such charges by engaging the most influential twentieth-century somatic philosophers and incorporating insights from both Western and Asian disciplines of body-mind awareness. Rather than rehashing intractable ontological debates on the mind-body relation, Shusterman reorients study of this crucial nexus towards a more fruitful, pragmatic direction that reinforces important but neglected connections between philosophy of mind, ethics, politics, and the pervasive aesthetic dimensions of everyday life.

Download or read book Libert politica e religione in Spinoza written by Marco Iannucci and published by Mimesis. This book was released on 2019-04-18T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il percorso delineato da Marco Iannucci inquadra il pensiero di Spinoza nel dibattito politico-religioso della sua Amsterdam, che nella seconda metà del ’600 fu teatro di un forte sviluppo economico e di tumultuosi fermenti politico-religiosi. Dall’analisi dei due trattati politici emergono non solo l’interesse di Spinoza per le circostanze che determinarono lo sviluppo della società, ma anche, grazie a un serrato dialogo con religiosi e politici del suo tempo, la sua volontà di guidarne i mutamenti in corso, di contribuire a migliorarli e di partecipare al processo di democratizzazione delle istituzioni. Ciò al fine di condurre la maggioranza degli uomini ad acquisire la libertà, intesa come liberazione da ogni forma di schiavitù. Egli diviene un tassello necessario al processo di emancipazione della collettività in cui vive, provocando così una vera rivoluzione politica, religiosa e morale, tanto che il suo messaggio, a più di tre secoli dalla sua morte, conserva ancora una bruciante attualità.
Download or read book Hegel written by Theodor W. Adorno and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1994-09-29 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This short masterwork in twentieth-century philosophy provides both a major reinterpretation of Hegel and insight into the evolution of Adorno's critical theory. The first study focuses on the relationship of reason, the individual, and society in Hegel, defending him against the criticism that he was merely an apologist for bourgeois society. The second study examines the experiential content of Hegel's idealism, considering the notion of experience in relation to immediacy, empirical reality, science, and society. The third study, "Skoteinos," is an unusual and fascinating essay in which Adorno lays out his thoughts on understanding Hegel. In his reflections, which spring from his experience teaching at the Goethe University in Frankfurt, questions of textual and philosophical interpretation are intertwined. Rescuing the truth value of Hegel's work is a recurring theme of the critical theory of the Frankfurt School, and nowhere is this goal pursued with more insight than in these three studies. The core problem Adorno sets for himself is how to read Hegel in a way that comprehends both the work and its historical context, thereby allowing conclusions to be drawn that may seem on the surface to be exactly opposed to what Hegel wrote but that are, nevertheless, valid as the present truth of the work. It is the elaboration of this method of interpretation, a negative dialectic, that was Adorno's underlying goal. Adorno's efforts to salvage the contemporaneity of Hegel's thought form part of his response to the increasingly tight net of social control in the aftermath of World War II. In this, his work is related to the very different attempts to undermine reified thinking undertaken by the various French theorists. The continued development of what Adorno called "the administered world" has only increased the relevance of his efforts.
