Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Liberty, Equality and Fraternity "The dreams which nations dream come true, And shape the world anew." - Lowell's Ode to France. "And so I am strong to love this noble France, This poet of the nations, who dreams on... For ever, after some ideal good... May God save France!" - E. B. Browning. I. There is a theory, known as Historical Materialism (or the Economic Interpretation of History) according to which ideas an ideals are only the shadows of the real moving forces of history. Our English poet has said, "We live by admiration, hope, and love;" and an older teacher has warned us that man liveth not by bread alone, - but this is poetry not science. Man is held fast in the grip of economic forces, and the mode of production in a given community determines the political moral, religious super-structure. Ideas are not forces, but products. To think otherwise is to confuse the active with the passive, substance with shadow. So runs the theory. Yet by a curious inconsistency, Karl Marx, the founder of the school, appears as the herald of a new gospel, in which ideas and ideals are preached with the fervour of a Hebrew prophet. He has the vision of a promised land, a humanitarian Millennium. "Workers the whole world o'er, unite!" is his battle cry. His ideals, too, are Liberty, Equality, Brotherhood - of a kind. And like every great teacher, he comes to bring, not peace, but a sword. It is our English habit to distrust rhetoric, and to be suspicious of phrases, unless they embody what we call commonsense and hard fact. Business is business. An ounce of fact is worth a pound of theory. These pass as current coin, stamped with the approval of that common-sense which fondly supposes that it has no dealings with the imagination. Yet if we take any movement which has influenced the course of our national life, from the dream of the Lollards, to Chartism and the Labour Movement, the dream of John Wesley or John Henry Newman, we shall find that while the impulse to action may have come from some immediate felt need in the circumstances of the situation, the deeper source lay in an aspiration of the imagination, and without aspiration, no inspiration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Victor Hugo These Greek capitals, black with age, and quite deeply graven in the stone, with I know not what signs peculiar to Gothic caligraphy imprinted upon their forms and upon their attitudes, as though with the purpose of revealing that it had been a hand of the Middle Ages which had inscribed them there, and especially the fatal and melancholy meaning contained in them, struck the author deeply. He questioned himself; he sought to divine who could have been that soul in torment which had not been willing to quit this world without leaving this stigma of crime or unhappi ness upon the brow of the ancient church.

Download or read book Perfect Equality written by Maria H. Morales and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 1996 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This original and compelling book argues that previous studies of John Stuart Mill's work have neglected his egalitarianism and thus seriously misunderstood his views. Morales demonstrates that Mill was fundamentally concerned with how the exercise of unjust or arbitrary power by some individuals over others sabotages the possibility of human well-being and social improvement. Mill therefore believed that 'perfect equality'--more than liberty--was the foundation of democracy and that democracy was a moral ideal for the organization of human life in all of its dimensions. By reinterpreting Mill, Morales also challenges twentieth-century views of liberalism, and addresses its contemporary communitarian and feminist critics.

Download or read book The Coming of the Terror in the French Revolution written by Timothy Tackett and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2015-02-23 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1793 and 1794, thousands of French citizens were imprisoned and hundreds sent to the guillotine by a powerful dictatorship that claimed to be acting in the public interest. Only a few years earlier, revolutionaries had proclaimed a new era of tolerance, equal justice, and human rights. How and why did the French Revolution’s lofty ideals of liberty, equality, and fraternity descend into violence and terror? “By attending to the role of emotions in propelling the Terror, Tackett steers a more nuanced course than many previous historians have managed...Imagined terrors, as...Tackett very usefully reminds us, can have even more political potency than real ones.” —David A. Bell, The Atlantic “[Tackett] analyzes the mentalité of those who became ‘terrorists’ in 18th-century France...In emphasizing weakness and uncertainty instead of fanatical strength as the driving force behind the Terror...Tackett...contributes to an important realignment in the study of French history.” —Ruth Scurr, The Spectator “[A] boldly conceived and important book...This is a thought-provoking book that makes a major contribution to our understanding of terror and political intolerance, and also to the history of emotions more generally. It helps expose the complexity of a revolution that cannot be adequately understood in terms of principles alone.” —Alan Forrest, Times Literary Supplement
Download or read book Empire and Underworld written by Miranda Frances Spieler and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The French Revolution invented the notion of the citizen, but it also invented the noncitizen—the person whose rights were nonexistent. The South American outpost of Guiana became a depository for these outcasts of the new French citizenry, and an experimental space for the exercise of new kinds of power and violence against marginal groups.
Download or read book Civil Religion written by Ronald Beiner and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-10-25 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Civil Religion offers philosophical commentaries on more than twenty thinkers stretching from the sixteenth to the twentieth century. It examines four important traditions within the history of modern political philosophy. The civil religion tradition, principally defined by Machiavelli, Hobbes and Rousseau, seeks to domesticate religion by putting it solidly in the service of politics. The liberal tradition pursues an alternative strategy of domestication by seeking to put as much distance as possible between religion and politics. Modern theocracy is a militant reaction against liberalism, reversing the relationship of subordination asserted by civil religion. Finally, a fourth tradition is defined by Nietzsche and Heidegger. Aspects of their thought are not just modern, but hyper-modern, yet they manifest an often-hysterical reaction against liberalism that is fundamentally shared with the theocratic tradition. Together, these four traditions compose a vital dialogue that carries us to the heart of political philosophy itself.
