Download or read book Aristotle and Other Platonists written by Lloyd P. Gerson and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2017-12-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Aristotle versus Plato. For a long time that is the angle from which the tale has been told, in textbooks on the history of philosophy and to university students. Aristotle's philosophy, so the story goes, was au fond in opposition to Plato's. But it was not always thus."—from the Introduction In a wide-ranging book likely to cause controversy, Lloyd P. Gerson sets out the case for the "harmony" of Platonism and Aristotelianism, the standard view in late antiquity. He aims to show that the twentieth-century view that Aristotle started out as a Platonist and ended up as an anti-Platonist is seriously flawed. Gerson examines the Neoplatonic commentators on Aristotle based on their principle of harmony. In considering ancient studies of Aristotle's Categories, Physics, De Anima, Metaphysics, and Nicomachean Ethics, the author shows how the principle of harmony allows us to understand numerous texts that otherwise appear intractable. Gerson also explains how these "esoteric" treatises can be seen not to conflict with the early "exoteric" and admittedly Platonic dialogues of Aristotle. Aristotle and Other Platonists concludes with an assessment of some of the philosophical results of acknowledging harmony.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supergravity, together with string theory, is one of the most significant developments in theoretical physics. Written by two of the most respected workers in the field, this is the first-ever authoritative and systematic account of supergravity. The book starts by reviewing aspects of relativistic field theory in Minkowski spacetime. After introducing the relevant ingredients of differential geometry and gravity, some basic supergravity theories (D=4 and D=11) and the main gauge theory tools are explained. In the second half of the book, complex geometry and N=1 and N=2 supergravity theories are covered. Classical solutions and a chapter on AdS/CFT complete the book. Numerous exercises and examples make it ideal for Ph.D. students, and with applications to model building, cosmology and solutions of supergravity theories, it is also invaluable to researchers. A website hosted by the authors, featuring solutions to some exercises and additional reading material, can be found at www.cambridge.org/supergravity.

Download or read book Mediating the Real written by Pascal Sigg and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2024-05-31 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a literary genre, the nonfictional reportage has particular implications for the role of the writer. Pascal Sigg shows how six U.S. American writers, including David Foster Wallace, George Saunders, and Rachel Kaadzi Ghansah, reflect on themselves as human media in their reportage. The writers assert themselves in a postmodern way by scrutinizing their own mediation. As it also traces and develops the theorization of reportage as genre along the reporters' early concerns with technical media, this pioneering contribution to literary journalism studies paves a way for a new materialist approach in the under-researched field.

Download or read book An Unreal Estate written by Lucinda Carspecken and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-03 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In An Unreal Estate, Lucinda Carspecken takes an in-depth look at Lothlorien, a Southern Indiana nature sanctuary, sustainable camping ground, festival site, collective residence, and experiment in ecological building, stewardship, and organization. Carspecken notes the way fiction and reality intertwine on this piece of land and argues that examples such as Lothlorien have the power to be a force for social change. Lothlorien's organization and social norms are in sharp contrast with its surrounding communities. As a unique enclave within a larger society, it offers to the latter both an implicit critique and a cluster of alternative values and lifestyles. In addition, it has created a niche where some participants change, grow, and find empowerment in an environment that is accepting of difference—particularly in areas of religion and sexual orientation.
Download or read book Since at least Plato and Other Postmodernist Myths written by M. Devaney and published by Springer. This book was released on 1997-08-04 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Since at Least Plato...' and Other Postmodernist Myths surveys the fields of theories of postmodernism and criticizes some of the most common claims found in them about philosophy, science, and the relationship and literary techniques to metaphysics, epistemology, and political ideologies. Devaney finds the accounts offered by these theories of concepts ranging from the law of noncontradiction to relativity and the Uncertainty Principle to be as ill-informed as they are pervasive. Devaney shows how the use to which these accounts have been put in constructing the story of the progression from realism to postmodernism to modernism flattens out both the history of ideas and the history of literature.

Download or read book In Search of the Whip poor will Love Song written by Charles Brookins Taylor Sr. and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-09-06 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Search of the Whip-poor-will Love Song takes the author, Charles Brookins Taylor Sr., on a journey using characters that represent three different generations in the search for the meaning of the whip-poor-will song. Through the combination of searching, observing, reminiscing, and dialoguing with others, he shows how the whip-poor-will song underscores what is said in Psalm 19:1, "The heavens declare the glory of God," a reminder that each creature or thing in God's creation has been given the innate ability to accomplish an ordained purpose in relating to Him and others, each in its own unique way. Taylor draws upon the Scriptures to remind us that God speaks to us through His visible and invisible creation, which tells us that although the spiritual realm transcends the physical realm, it permeates and operates within it. Taylor also shows us how God is using the whip-poor-will as a conduit to proclaim a message to us that His love is unconditional and unfailing. And likewise, He wants to use us to do the same. In a world that often seems to be filled with hate, selfishness, and discord, you may find yourself wondering what has become of our love for one another. In Search of the Whip-poor-will Love Song's story will help us to know that every creature or thing of God has been given the ability to speak love to us, each in its own language, each in its own unique way, each with its own dance. May we all remember that God has given each of us and all His creation the ability to proclaim His love and His glory, and when we allow this to happen, our life will begin to have purpose, peace, happiness, and joy, knowing that God's love for us is really real.
