Book En defensa de la naturaleza humana

Download or read book En defensa de la naturaleza humana written by Luis Arturo Pelayo and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lo largo de la historia de la filosofía numerosos pensadores han defendido la idea de que existe una "naturaleza humana", es decir, algo que define a ese ente que conocemos como "ser humano". Sin embargo, a partir del siglo XIX, con el desarrollo de las ciencias humanas y de las ciencias de la naturaleza (específicamente con la postulación de la teoría evolucionista de Darwin y el desarrollo de la antropología cultural, la sociología, el historicismo y la psicología), el concepto de "naturaleza humana" comenzó a ser ampliamente cuestionado, subrayándose la imposibilidad de hablar de una naturaleza humana fija frente a una multiplicidad de factores que condicionan o modifican la acción humana. Asimismo, la definición de la naturaleza humana a partir de la existencia de una esencia universal fue perdiendo adeptos con el descrédito del pensamiento metafísico que se dio en la filosofía moderna. En este escenario, ¿puede sostenerse el concepto de "naturaleza humana" en la discusión filosófica actual? Y si el ser humano no tiene naturaleza, entonces ¿qué es? ¿A qué nos referimos cuando hablamos del "hombre"? En este libro el autor argumenta a favor de la existencia de una naturaleza humana universal, comenzando por definir el concepto de "naturaleza", para poder aplicarlo al ser humano. Responde, en un segundo momento, diversas objeciones que se han planteado a este concepto desde posiciones como el existencialismo, el evolucionismo, el historicismo y el conductismo. Continúa con la exposición de las características que definen al ser humano y, por lo tanto, son universales y escapan a condicionamientos históricos, culturales o sociales -para lo cual retoma el pensamiento del filósofo alemán Erich Fromm-, y concluye presentando diversas respuestas patológicas que pueden darse a las necesidades existenciales humanas y que confirman, por la vía negativa, la existencia una naturaleza humana universal.

Book The Athenian Constitution

Download or read book The Athenian Constitution written by Aristotle and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1984-10-02 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Probably written by a student of Aristotle, The Athenian Constitution is both a history and an analysis of Athens' political machinery between the seventh and fourth centuries BC, which stands as a model of democracy at a time when city-states lived under differing kinds of government. The writer recounts the major reforms of Solon, the rule of the tyrant Pisistratus and his sons, the emergence of the democracy in which power was shared by all free male citizens, and the leadership of Pericles and the demagogues who followed him. He goes on to examine the city's administration in his own time - the council, the officials and the judicial system. For its information on Athens' development and how the democracy worked, The Athenian Constitution is an invaluable source of knowledge about the Athenian city-state. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Palaeobiology: A Synthesis was widely acclaimed both for its content and production quality. Ten years on, Derek Briggs and Peter Crowther have once again brought together over 150 leading authorities from around the world to produce Palaeobiology II. Using the same successful formula, the content is arranged as a series of concise articles, taking a thematic approach to the subject, rather than treating the various fossil groups systematically. This entirely new book, with its diversity of new topics and over 100 new contributors, reflects the exciting developments in the field, including accounts of spectacular newly discovered fossils, and embraces data from other disciplines such as astrobiology, geochemistry and genetics. Palaeobiology II will be an invaluable resource, not only for palaeontologists, but also for students and researchers in other branches of the earth and life sciences. Written by an international team of recognised authorities in the field. Content is concise but informative. Demonstrates how palaeobiological studies are at the heart of a range of scientific themes.

Book Eudemian Ethics

    Book Details:
  • Author : Aristotle
  • Publisher : Aeterna Press
  • Release : 2015-09-01
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 115 pages

Download or read book Eudemian Ethics written by Aristotle and published by Aeterna Press. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Eudemian Ethics and the De Virtutibus et Vitiis have not received much attention from scholars. Mr. Ross’s suggestions have been of the greatest use to me; Fritzsche’s commentary I have sometimes referred to with advantage, and also to some notes printed by Prof. Henry Jackson and kindly sent me by him some years ago. Prof. Jackson is also the author of an article in the Journal of Philology, xxxii, which has shed a flood of light on the corrupt passage, Bk. VII, chs. 13, 14. Of course the principal help to the understanding of the two treatises is the Nicomachean Ethics, their resemblances to and differences from which work are of great interest. Aeterna Press
