Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nel 1851 escono i Parerga e paralipomena e Arthur Schopenhauer, all'età di 63 anni, dopo essere scampato all'epidemia di colera che uccise il suo "grande nemico" Hegel, riceve finalmente il successo che merita. Questo piccolo grande libro e uno dei tanti tesori contenuti nell'opera che lo rese famoso. Un libro di saggezza, che smaschera i nostri vizi più comuni: il lusso, l'ostentazione, la mondanità, il conformismo, la moda, e ci invita a coltivare la nostra personalità, la nostra formazione interiore come il bene principale dell'esistenza. Grande osservatore delle umane manie e avvincente narratore delle comuni vanità, Schopenhauer ci regala anche una brillante collezione di consigli e massime per cercare in noi stessi la fonte più autentica della felicità (Aonia edizioni).

Download or read book Est Antigoriu written by Claudia Zedda and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-12-30 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Est Antigoriu è un viaggio in terra sarda, un mosaico di profumi, usi, tradizioni, folklore e sentimento isolano che dà forma all'isola esattamente come l'autrice la percepisce. E' lo stesso titolo a definire la terra sarda antica, nel fascino, nella cultura, nella gastronomia, nell'arte e nell'architettura, nei suoni e in quei sentimenti che sparpaglia come grano al vento, capace come s'è dimostrata di trattenere dell'antico solo il meglio. L'isola viene letta e riletta sotto diversi aspetti: con gli occhi di donna tradita, amata, protetta o esposta, con lo sguardo delle Dee che l'hanno abitata, rivivendo feste, attraversando malattie e cure, sognando della Sardegna di ieri e ripercorrendone la storia attraverso l'arte che al suo interno vide nascere, d'intreccio, di pittura, di foto.

Download or read book Renaissance Ethnography and the Invention of the Human written by Surekha Davies and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-06-02 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Giants, cannibals and other monsters were a regular feature of Renaissance illustrated maps, inhabiting the Americas alongside other indigenous peoples. In a new approach to views of distant peoples, Surekha Davies analyzes this archive alongside prints, costume books and geographical writing. Using sources from Iberia, France, the German lands, the Low Countries, Italy and England, Davies argues that mapmakers and viewers saw these maps as careful syntheses that enabled viewers to compare different peoples. In an age when scholars, missionaries, native peoples and colonial officials debated whether New World inhabitants could – or should – be converted or enslaved, maps were uniquely suited for assessing the impact of environment on bodies and temperaments. Through innovative interdisciplinary methods connecting the European Renaissance to the Atlantic world, Davies uses new sources and questions to explore science as a visual pursuit, revealing how debates about the relationship between humans and monstrous peoples challenged colonial expansion.

Download or read book Dialogue and Rhetoric written by Edda Weigand and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume deals with the relationship between dialogue and rhetoric. The actual state of the art in dialogue analysis is characterized by a tendency to overcome the distinction between competence and performance and to combine components from both sides of the dichotomy, in a way which includes rules as well as inferences. The same is true of rhetoric: the guidelines proposed here no longer state that rationality and persuasion are mutually exclusive but suggest that they interact in what might be called the 'mixed game'. The concept of a dialogic rhetoric thus poses the question of how to integrate the different voices. Part I of the volume assembles several 'rhetorical paradigms' which are applied to real-life performance. Part II on 'rhetoric in the mixed game' contains a selection of papers which illustrate the interaction of various components. The Round Table discussion in Part III brings proponents of different paradigms face to face with each other and shows how they justify their own positions and present arguments against rival paradigms.

Download or read book Syntagmatia written by Dirk Sacré and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 825 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collective volume has been dedicated to two distinguished scholars of Neo-Latin Studies on the occasion of their retirement after a long and fruitful academic career, one at the Université catholique Louvain-la-Neuve, the other at the internationally renowned Seminarium Philologiae Humanisticae of Leuven University. Both the rich variety of subjects dealt with and the international diversity of the scholars authoring contributions reflect the wide interests of the celebrated Neo-Latinists, their international position, and the actual status of the discipline itself. Ranging from the Trecento to the 21st century, and embracing Latin writings from Italy, Hungary, The Netherlands, Germany, France, Poland, the New World, Spain, Scotland, Denmark and China, this volume is as rich and multifaceted as it is voluminous, for it not only offers studies on well-known figures such as Petrarch, Lorenzo Valla, Erasmus, Vives, Thomas More, Eobanus Hessus, Lipsius, Tycho Brahe, Jean de la Fontaine and Jacob Cats, but it also includes new contributions on Renaissance commentaries and editions of classical authors such as Homer, Seneca and Horace; on Neo-Latin novels, epistolography and Renaissance rhetoric; on Latin translations from the vernacular and invectives against Napoleon; on the teaching of Latin in the 19th century; and on the didactics of Neo-Latin nowadays.
