This book was released on 2018-04-23 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Consolations in Travel: Or the Last Days of a Philosopher Activity and originality of mind, with a persistent of inquiry and experiment, brought Davy friends who could appreciate and help him. When Dr. Beddoes, of Bristol, was examining the Cornish coast, in 1798, he came upon young Humphry Davy, was told of researches made by him, and urged to engage him as laboratory assistant in a Pneumatic Institution that he was then establishing in Bristol. Davy went in October, 1798, then in his twentieth year; but his good friend, and grandfather by adoption, had set his heart upon Humphry's becoming an eminent surgeon, and even altered his will when his boy yielded to the temptation of a laboratory for research. Men also know something of the trouble of the hen who has a chance duckling in her brood, and sees that contumacious chicken run into the water deaf to all the warnings of her love.

Download or read book The Consolations of the Forest written by Sylvain Tesson and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A journalist embarks on the adventure of a lifetime—living in a remote cabin in Siberia—in this Thoreau-esque meditation on escaping the chaos of modern life and rediscovering the luxury of solitude. “…wry, exuberant, and a perfect balm for anyone who dreams of running away to the middle of nowhere.” —San Francisco Chronicle No stranger to inhospitable places, journalist Sylvain Tesson exiles himself to a wooden cabin on Siberia’s Lake Baikal—a full day’s hike from any “neighbor”—with his thoughts, his books, a couple of dogs, and many bottles of vodka for company. Writing from February to July, he shares his deep appreciation for the harsh but beautiful land, the resilient men and women who populate it, and the bizarre and tragic history that has given Siberia an almost mythological place in the imagination. Rich with observation, introspection, and the good humor necessary to laugh at his own folly, Tesson’s memoir is about the ultimate freedom of owning your own time. Only in the hands of a gifted storyteller can an experiment in isolation become an exceptional adventure accessible to all. By recording his impressions in the face of silence, his struggles in a hostile environment, his hopes, doubts, and moments of pure joy in communion with nature, Tesson makes a decidedly out-of-the-ordinary experience relatable. The awe and joy are contagious, and one comes away with the comforting knowledge that “as long as there is a cabin deep in the woods, nothing is completely lost.”

This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sources of Consolation in Human Life Experiences of thwarted hope, fruitless effort, bereavement, betrayal, sickness, fear, perplexity, collapsing wretchedness, distraction, and despair, are so numerous and so constant as to compose one of the elemental aspects of the history of our race. The correspondent call for ministra tions of solace, courage, and cheer is so emphatic that unnumbered attempts have naturally been made to answer it. A host of books have been published with this object in view. But the majority of them have been mere compilations, sentimental and superficial, without intellectual penetration, and without moral and religious vitality or charm. This species of literature, as a rule, has much of professional phraseology, mechanical commonplace, and traditional cant, with little of that interpretative knowledge and living sympathy which alone are laden with a divinely human helpfulness.

Download or read book The Consolations of Philosophy written by Alain De Botton and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2013-01-23 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of How Proust Can Change Your Life, a delightful, truly consoling work that proves that philosophy can be a supreme source of help for our most painful everyday problems. Perhaps only Alain de Botton could uncover practical wisdom in the writings of some of the greatest thinkers of all time. But uncover he does, and the result is an unexpected book of both solace and humor. Dividing his work into six sections -- each highlighting a different psychic ailment and the appropriate philosopher -- de Botton offers consolation for unpopularity from Socrates, for not having enough money from Epicurus, for frustration from Seneca, for inadequacy from Montaigne, and for a broken heart from Schopenhauer (the darkest of thinkers and yet, paradoxically, the most cheering). Consolation for envy -- and, of course, the final word on consolation -- comes from Nietzsche: "Not everything which makes us feel better is good for us." This wonderfully engaging book will, however, make us feel better in a good way, with equal measures of wit and wisdom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religious Consolation The end of human existence on earth is improvement, moral growth, progress towards spiritual perfection. Trouble, as one of the means conducive to this end, is an essential part of the system under which we live. It is therefore a manifestation of divine beneficence, a proof of the interest that the Father takes in us, not a ground of complaint or distrust. The question which we need to solve is this, - how can the outward trouble be so received that it shall not disturb the feelings which we carry within us - how shall the mirror of the breast be saved from reflecting the images of disaster?
