Book We delve into The Function of Reason

Download or read book We delve into The Function of Reason written by Nomadsirius and published by 펜립. This book was released on 2023-07-21 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We delve into The Function of Reason(In English, 2023 Revision). Prologue. Whitehead (1861-1947) is a philosopher from England. He asserts that reason is an impulse toward empty concreteness. That impulse is not empty. It is a fundamental force that can give birth to something. This impulse of mind is appetition, which is an inherent agent of transcendental goals. Therefore, empty concreteness is embodied as material enjoyment. Whitehead\'s reason cannot exist without appetition. Jeong Yi-cheon of the Northern Song Dynasty, who developed Neo-Confucianism, also believed that the main body cannot be separated from the phenomenon. Whitehead advocates Plato, stating that all of Western philosophy is just a footnote to Plato\'s philosophy. However, he overcomes Plato by creating his own organic philosophy. Nietzsche, Marx, and Freud are also critics of the Platonic system. Plato\'s original sin is his ideology that isolates humans from the world and alienates them for 2000 years. Idea corresponds to all phenomena in a monolithic and organic manner. Whitehead can be seen as a Copernican Übermensch. ‘The Function of Reason’ is a lecture given at Princeton University in 1929. This book provides an easy and condensed summary of a long and difficult text.

Book We permeate into On The Genealogy of Morality

Download or read book We permeate into On The Genealogy of Morality written by NomadSirius and published by 펜립. This book was released on 2022-12-01 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prologue. In 1887, at the age of 44, Nietzsche publishes ‘The Genealogy of Morality’. It is a time of self-reflection called Little Snow of the Winter of Fate. He closes the period of classical literature and devotes himself to existential philosophy by experience. By contrasting slave morality and master morality with a genealogical methodology, good and evil are transformed into the moral values of good and bad. Goodness affirms and elevates life with an aristocratic will. Badness denies and degenerates life with slavish will. The moral concept of sin is derived not from a Christian point of view, but from the material concept of a debt owed by a debtor to a creditor. Cruelty is understood as a festival of self-affirmation overcoming the nihilism of self-contempt and self-denial. ‘The Genealogy of Morality’ is the concept of Ubermensch trying to create a new value by overcoming the reality of nihilism.

Book We delve into The Zhuangzi

Download or read book We delve into The Zhuangzi written by Nomadsirius and published by 펜립. This book was released on 2023-07-31 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We delve into The Zhuangzi(In English, 2023 Revision). Prologue. Zhuang Zhou, commonly known as Zhuangzi, was born in Meng in the state of Song during the Warring States period. Meng is currently located in the north of Sang-gu, Hanam Province. The estimated dates of his life are approximately 369-286 BC. This was the era of King Hui of the Yang dynasty and King Seon of the Qi dynasty. After working as a manager at Chilwon for a while, he did not hold any official positions for the rest of his life. Instead, he devoted himself to writing and interacted with the prime ministers of his time. In a turbulent and unstable era, he viewed the world through the lens of Taoism. His ideas, which diverged from conventional reality, had a significant influence on Chinese culture. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang canonized the Zhuangzi as one of the Chinese classics and bestowed upon it the honorific title \'True Scripture of Southern Florescence\'. The philosophy of Zhuangzi also had a profound impact on Zen Buddhism during the Tang dynasty, leading to its flourishing. It is believed that the original Zhuangzi consisted of fifty-two sections, but only thirty-three sections by Guo Xiang (AD.252-312) have been reported. Guo Xiang of the Northern Song Dynasty divided it into seven sections called \'inner chapters\', fifteen sections called \'outer chapters\', and eleven sections called \'miscellaneous chapters\'. The \'inner chapters\' provide a descriptive overview of the themes of each chapter and are considered the purest form of Zhuangzi\'s philosophy. On the other hand, the \'outer and miscellaneous chapters\' provide more detailed insights into the disciples. There is a saying that the Zhuangzi is a commentary on Laozi\'s teachings, but this is an exaggerated denunciation. The Huainanzi, an ancient Chinese text, treats the philosophies of Laozi and Zhuangzi as unique thoughts within a philosophical system. Zhuangzi reinterprets the Tao proposed by Laozi in the form of stories, presenting it in a new way. Through his writings, he embodies Laozi\'s ideas and awakens the concept of the Great Integrity.

Book We delve into Psychology of the Unconscious 2023 Revision

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We delve into Psychology of the Unconscious(In English, 2023 Revision). Prologue. Carl Gustav Jung was a Swiss psychiatrist. In 1902, he obtained his medical doctorate from the University of Zurich. He conducted extensive research under the supervision of psychologist Eugen Bleuler, who was a professor at the university. While collaborating with Freud, he began to study psychology in-depth. In 1908, at the age of 34, he co-founded the International Psychoanalytic Society with Freud. In 1912, after publishing \'Transformation and Symbolism of the Libido\', he ended his professional relationship with Freud due to differences in their views on the unconscious mind. At the age of 44 in 1918, he further developed his theory of in-depth psychology, introducing the concept of the \'collective unconscious.\' To study archetypes in the collective unconscious, he conducted comparative research in cultural and religious history. In 1930, he presented a paper that discussed the theoretical considerations of prototypes. In 1935, he organized and led the Eranos Conference, a gathering of scholars from around the world. Focusing on the influence of the collective unconscious\'s prototypes on personality and self-awareness, he immersed himself in the study of alchemy. In 1948, the Jung Institute was established in Zurich, Switzerland. In 1953, the complete English edition of his works was published. \'Psychology of the Unconscious\' was written in 1912 when Jung was 38 years old. Jung explores the unconscious world by analyzing Miss Miller\'s fantasy system. Through a transcendent desire that surpasses time and space, he seeks to understand the nature of human conflicts. By uncovering the common threads connecting ancient times, he expands the understanding of the unconscious and develops intellectual insight. This book provides a concise summary of a lengthy and challenging text.

Book excerpt: We delve into Romans(In English, 2023). Prologue. The image of God inherent in all things is manifested through the workings of the Holy Spirit in Jesus Christ. The Apostle Paul also experiences the divine nature when the Holy Spirit comes upon him in Damascus. The Holy Spirit is the light of the essence, seen as the breath of the spiritual wind. By awakening the true moral nature, the spirit comes to life. Around A.D. 57, when the third missionary journey was coming to an end, Paul stayed in Corinth for three months and during that time, he wrote the remarkable Epistle to the Romans. Justification by the Holy Spirit, sanctification that embodies the law through love, and spiritualization that brings the law to fruition as fruit are unfolded in four paragraphs spanning chapters 1-4, 5-8, 9-11, and 12-16. The English original reference used is the King James Version (KJV). It is a translation of the Bible into English that was commissioned by King James I of England in 1607 and is known as the Authorized Version in the British realm.

Book excerpt: 프롤로그 니체는 44세인 1887년 ‘도덕의 계보’를 출간한다. 운명의 겨울로 자기성찰의 때인 소설小雪이다. 고전문헌학의 시기를 마감하고 경험에 의한 실존철학에 매진한다. 계보적 방법론으로 노예도덕과 주인도덕을 대비함으로써 선과 악을 좋음과 나쁨의 도덕가치로 전이轉移시킨다. 좋음은 귀족적 의지로 삶을 긍정하고 고양한다. 나쁨은 노예적 의지로 삶을 부정하고 퇴행시킨다. 기독교적 관점이 아니라 채무불이행에 따른 물질적 채무개념에서 죄의 도덕적 개념을 유도한다. 잔인함을 자기멸시와 자기부정의 허무주의를 극복한 자기긍정의 축제로 이해한다. ‘도덕의 계보’는 허무의 현실을 초극하여 새로운 가치를 창조하려한 위버멘쉬의 구상이다.

Book excerpt: Prologue. Dutch historian Johan Huizinga (1872-1945) released \"The Autumn of the Middle Ages\" in 1919, offering profound insights into the medieval era and shedding light on its dark times.

The medieval period is a beautiful sunset that occurs as darkness descends, symbolized by sunsets and moonlight. Culture emerges from play as a bud of the Renaissance. The ideal life rooted in the era of the red dusk consists of three paths. Firstly, it involves escaping from the mundane world, denying worldly pleasures absolutely.

This book was released on 2024-03-13 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prologue. In baseball and soccer, the outcome is determined by the coach\'s tactics. To maximize performance and profits, it is necessary to delight customers and fans with quick information gathering and accurate analysis based on vast data. The coach, who is responsible for the entire game, must respect the individuality of the players, acknowledge the unique authority of the coaches, and accommodate the demands of the audience, while also considering the strategy for player placement based on the opposing team. Despite the limited capacity of the coach, the responsibility for poor performance is absolute, so fundamentally, leading players and coaches to victory and success requires deep knowledge of baseball and soccer. We approach baseball tactics through an understanding of pitching, catching, hitting, defense, and base running, and examine soccer tactics by analyzing the four-back formation and three-back formation. In the Major League and Premier League, a manager is a condensed version of a strategist. We wander through the forests of baseball and soccer while reflecting on the fierce lives depicted in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

By doing something beneficial for oneself and others, one gains wealth and prosperity.

Book Explore the world through humanities travel

Download or read book Explore the world through humanities travel written by Nomadsirius and published by 펜립. This book was released on 2023-12-15 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prologue. Due to the impact of ethnic circumstances left in history, the ethnic characteristics remain, approaching the humanities journey through the clarity of comprehensive historiography. Following the trajectory of the history of each country, changed at the whims of the goddess of luck, Fortuna, the humanities journey explores the paths of history. In contrast to the Tu\'kke of Greek mythology, who left luck to the dice, in Roman mythology, Fortuna determines destiny with a wheel. We traverse James Joyce and Shakespeare\'s England, Dante Alighieri and Leonardo da Vinci, Umberto Eco\'s Italy, Rubens\'s Belgium, Nikos Kazantzakis\'s Greece, Milan Kundera\'s Czechoslovakia, Descartes and Vincent van Gogh, Sartre\'s France, and Dostoevsky\'s Russia. The internal meaning of history involves the exploration of truth, thought, and effort to approach it, as well as the investigation of causes and origins. In the timeless hours between the dog and the wolf, we revel in the freedom that transcends all formality during that elusive evening time. Embarking on a humanities journey through comprehensive historiography, we explore the world. Humanities travel is enriching when life itself is beautiful.

Book Read the Economic Code of Wealth

Download or read book Read the Economic Code of Wealth written by Nomadsirius and published by 펜립. This book was released on 2024-06-28 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The daily average foreign exchange transaction volume in 2023, as announced by the Bank of Korea, is $65.9 billion. Excluding spot and forward exchange transactions, most of the transactions are conducted by forces aiming for currency speculation. Funds move at the speed of light, and if 0.1% of $3 billion moves, it results in a profit of $3 million. Due to financial liberalization through globalization, exchange rates are determined not only by the movement of goods and services but also by the flow of capital. International financial transactions precede trade transactions, and money exceeding fifty times the real economy seeks higher returns, searching every corner of the globe. As it becomes harder to find good returns due to overinvestment and overproduction, companies rely on 'technical trading' and 'momentum investing' for very short-term gains rather than investing based on long-term outlooks and intrinsic value. Thus, a financial crisis in a specific country spreads to our exchange rate fluctuations or financial crises. Stiglitz won the Nobel Prize in Economics for his work on the asymmetry of information and the imperfection of markets. Market imperfections arise from game-theoretic environments caused by gaps in information, leading to interactions between uncertain elements in the understanding of markets and events. Our decisions, based on human knowledge, result in unintended consequences, but the amount of information gained from failure is greater than from success. Based on a philosophical understanding of wealth, we read the codes of the economy, amplifying the bidirectional feedback mechanism of error and recursion.

Book Toegye  Gyeomjae  Chusa

Download or read book Toegye Gyeomjae Chusa written by Nomadsirius and published by 펜립. This book was released on 2023-10-20 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prologue. Aesthetics is the emotional perception of beauty introduced by Baumgarten (1714-1762) in Germany during the mid-18th century. Aesthetics, with the goal of systematically interpreting aesthetic values, traces its philosophical origins back to ancient Greece. To understand the perception of beauty in both the East and the West, we investigate the philosophical foundations of aesthetic judgment found in Greek aesthetics, Eastern Confucianism, Buddhism, Zen aesthetics, medieval aesthetics, Renaissance aesthetics, modern aesthetics, and contemporary aesthetics. \"Gödel, Escher, Bach (1979)\" by American cognitive scientist Douglas Richard Hofstadter (1945- ) serves as the inspiration for the creation of \"Toegye, Gyeomjae, Chusa (2023).\" Hofstadter investigates the neural mechanisms of cognition in the lives and works of Gödel, Escher, and Bach. Austrian mathematician Kurt Gödel (1906-1978) poses profound philosophical inquiries about formal logic, mathematical logic, and the foundations of mathematical systems. Dutch printmaker Moritz Escher (1898-1972) ventures beyond the boundaries of reality and imagination by blending mathematical principles and aesthetics within the realm of surrealism. German composer Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) translates the counter-reformation and the upheaval that affected Northern Europe after the Thirty Years\' War (1618-1648) into dynamic, unconventional, and sensuous Baroque auditory art. \"Toegye, Gyeomjae, Chusa (2023)\" is an encounter of philosophy and aesthetics recorded from an artist\'s monograph perspective. Toegye Yi Hwang (1501-1570), a Confucian scholar of the Joseon Dynasty, firmly establishes the dualism of principle and vital forces based on the theory of principle superiority, which dualizes li-ki into enduring li and ephemeral qi. Gyeomjae Jeong Seon (1676-1759), a painter from the later period of the Joseon Dynasty, reinterprets the monism of principle and vital forces, viewing it as a single attribute or order of qi\'s action, and opens up a new horizon in the world of landscape painting. Chusa Kim Jeong-hui (1786-1856), a scholar from the later period of the Joseon Dynasty, creates an ideal new calligraphy style based on his research in Qing Dynasty classical studies, which harmonizes the monism of principle and vital forces of Yulgok and the dualism of principle and vital forces of Toegye, free from the constraints of theoretical Confucianism. Attempting individual reflections on the lives, scholarship, philosophy, and aesthetics of Toegye, Gyeomjae, and Chusa, it approaches the fusion of clarity and universality. Establishing a cosmology based on the dualism of principle and vital Forces, I seek to find the essence of aesthetics in the movement of qi, which is the change in the universe.

Book Hegel  Husserl and the Phenomenology of Historical Worlds

Download or read book Hegel Husserl and the Phenomenology of Historical Worlds written by Tanja Staehler and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-12-07 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GWF Hegel famously described philosophy as 'its own time apprehended in thoughts', reflecting a desire that we increasingly experience, namely, the desire to understand our complex and fast-changing world. But how can we philosophically describe the world we live in? When Hegel attempted his systematic account of the historical world, he needed to conceive of history as rational progress to allow for such description. After the events of the twentieth century, we are rightfully doubtful about such progress. However, in the twentieth century, another German philosopher, Edmund Husserl, attempted a similar project when he realised that a philosophical account of our human experience requires attending to the historical world we live in. According to Husserl, the Western world is a world in crisis. In this book, Tanja Staehler explores how Husserl thus radicalises Hegel’s philosophy by providing an account of historical movement as open. Husserl’s phenomenology allows thinking of historical worlds in the plural, without hierarchy, determined by ethics and aesthetics. Staehler argues that, through his radicalization of Hegel’s philosophy, Husserl provides us with a historical phenomenology and a coherent concept of a culture that points to the future for phenomenology as a philosophy that provides the methodological grounding for a variety of qualitative approaches in the humanities and social sciences.

Book Attentiveness to Vulnerability

Download or read book Attentiveness to Vulnerability written by Daniel J. Fleming and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-04-24 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an attempt to develop a dialogue between the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas, Jean Porter's Thomistic theory of the natural law, and the virtue of solidarity as expressed in Catholic Social Teaching. It seeks to explore the implications that such a dialogue would have for our understanding of moral reasoning. Attentiveness to Vulnerability rests on the hypothesis that it is possible to develop a set of robust links between these thinkers and bodies of thought--markedly different as they are in terms of philosophical disposition and framework. Such links specify the ethical implications of Levinas' thought and develop Porter's theory in an original way. This work requires further specification through a developed anthropology, which allows for expansion within the tradition of Catholic theological ethics. The inclusion of Levinas and a focus on the virtue of solidarity allows for an advancement of virtue theory and theological ethics, to the extent that the virtue of solidarity becomes a key aspect of any ethical reasoning.
