Book excerpt: Pocket Pantheon is an invitation to engage with the greats of postwar Western thought, such as Lacan, Sartre and Foucault, in the company of one of today's leading political and philosophical minds.

Download or read book A Pocket Philosophical Dictionary written by Voltaire and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2011-08-11 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'What can you say to a man who tells you he prefers obeying God rather than men, and that as a result he's certain he'll go to heaven if he cuts your throat?' Voltaire's Pocket Philosophical Dictionary, first published in 1764, is a major work of the European Enlightenment. It is also a highly entertaining book: this is no 'dictionary' in the ordinary sense, nor does it treat 'philosophy' in the modern meaning of the term. It consists of a sequence of short essays or articles, arranged in alphabetical order, and covering everything from Apocalypse and Atheism to Tolerance and Tyranny. The unifying thread of these articles is Voltaire's critique of established religion: ridicule of established dogma, attacks on superstition, and pleas for toleration. Witty and ironic, this is very much a work of combat, part of Voltaire's high-profile political struggle in the 1760s to defend the victims of religious and political intolerance. This new translation is based on the definitive French text, and reprints the edition that provoked widespread controversy and condemnation. In his Introduction Nicholas Cronk considers the work's continuing relevance to modern debates about religious intolerance and its consequences. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
Download or read book Pocket Philosophy written by AYA. G. K and published by . This book was released on 2024-05-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's fascinating how a little insight could lead to so much perspective, and how asking the question could open the door to a variety of answers. What is love & what is freedom? How do we perceive our surroundings? And most importantly, how do we perceive our own selves? On a journey from Socrates to Frida Kahlo, eras have asked these questions, and formulated answers. Yet, the most honest answers are found within our surroundings. This book is an experience of curiosity and exploration. Through digging deeper, shifting angles and developing ideas, we explore how we are all individual, yet together!
Download or read book Poker and Philosophy written by Eric Bronson and published by Open Court. This book was released on 2012-03-30 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does God play cards with the universe? Do women have better poker faces than men? What’s the most existential poker movie ever made? Is life more meaningful when you go all-in? Is online poker really still poker? Poker and Philosophy ponders these questions and more, pitting young lions against old masters as the brashness of Phil Hellmuth meets the arrogance of Socrates, the recklessness of Doyle Brunson challenges the desperation of Dostoyevsky, and the coolness of Chris Moneymaker takes on the American tradition of capitalist ingenuity. This witty collection of essays demonstrates what serious card sharks have long known: winning big takes more than a good hand and a straight face. Stacking the metaphorical deck with a serious grounding in philosophy is the key to raking it in, because as Machiavelli proved long ago, it’s a lot better to be feared than loved, and lying is not the same as cheating.
Download or read book Philosophy for Militants written by Alain Badiou and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2015-05-05 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An urgent and provocative account of the modern ‘militant’, a transformative figure at the front line of emancipatory politics. Around the world, recent events have seen the creation of a radical phalanx comprising students, the young, workers and immigrants. It is Badiou’s contention that the politics of such militants should condition the tasks of philosophy, even as philosophy clarifies the truth of our political condition. To resolve the conflicts between politics, philosophy and democracy, Badiou argues for a resurgent communism – returning to the original call for universal emancipation and organizing for militant struggle.

Download or read book The Pocket Stoic written by John Sellars and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-10-14 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Excellent. . . . a lucid, easy-to-follow account of what Stoicism as a way of life amounts to and how you might start to put it into practice.” —Nigel Warburton, author of A Little History of Philosophy To counter the daily anxieties, stress, and emotional swings caused by the barrage of stimuli that plagues modern life, many people have been finding unexpected solace in a philosophy from a very different and distant time: Stoicism. Today, more than 100,000 people are members of online communities for modern Stoics, and there are conferences, meet-ups, and workshops for those aspiring to walk the Stoic path. But what is Stoicism, and what makes it resonate so powerfully today? As John Sellars shows in The Pocket Stoic, the popular image of the isolated and unfeeling Stoic hardly does justice to the rich vein of thought that we find in the work of Seneca, Epictetus, and Marcus Aurelius, the three great Roman Stoics. Their works are recognized classics, and for good reason—they speak to some of the perennial issues that face anyone trying to navigate their way through life. These writings, fundamentally, are about how to live—how to understand your place in the world, how to cope when things don’t go well, how to manage your emotions, how to behave toward others, and finally, how to live a good life. To be a Stoic is to recognize that much of the suffering in your life is due to the way you think about things, and that you have the ability to train your mind to look at the world in a new way—to recognize what you can and can’t control and turn adversity into opportunity. The Pocket Stoic is a concise introduction to the lives and thought of the key Stoics—and a perfect guide to incorporating the practice of Stoicism into your everyday life.
