Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lovers of Heine will be pleased to see an English version of his Religion and Philosophy in Germany, and all the more as it comes from the thoroughly competent hands of Mr. J. Snodgrass. We say 'thoroughly competent,' because by his admirable Wit, Wisdom, and Pathos, from the Prose of Heinrich Heine, Mr. Snodgrass has already proved his ability to render Heine's exquisite prose into English, which retains, as far as a translation can, all the delicate flavour and subtle graces of the original. The execution of the present volume is not a whit behind that of the former, and, if anything, will increase the deservedly high reputation of the translator as an interpreter of Heine to the English reader. The translation is made from the German, but as the translator has been careful to note the variations both in the French edition as finally revised by Heine, and in the various German editions, the reader has before him all that Heine wrote on the subject, and is enabled to see all the more important changes through which the text has passed. We trust that the volume will meet with the large success it deserves, and that Mr. Snodgrass will be encouraged to do for other of Heine's works, what he has here done for this. - The Scottish Review [1882]Whatever Heine wrote is fascinating from his manner of saying things, if not for the things in themselves. He writes with sweetness, brilliancy, and insight; and this slender volume in the "English and Foreign Philosophical Library" is a fair proof of it. Mr. Snodgrass has given an admirable translation, and the work, fragmentary though it is, is a fair sketch, not of religious and philosophical opinions, but of the ways in which the religion and philosophy of Germany, from Luther to Kant and from Kant to Hegel, affected the literary, social, and thoughtful life of the people. Heine saw sides of the subject which a less mercurial writer would have missed, and had no fears of saying exactly what he thought. The personal element enters largely into this delicious bit of writing, also the political element; and perhaps the chief reason why it has literary and philosophical value is that Heine wrote it. He represents phases of the religious and philosophical movement in Germany which have not been touched upon by other writers. - American Church Review, Volume 38 [1882]

Download or read book Heine On the History of Religion and Philosophy in Germany written by Terry Pinkard and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-09-06 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents a colourful and entertaining overview of German intellectual history by a central figure in its development. Heinrich Heine (1797-1856), famous poet, journalist, and political exile, studied with Hegel and was personally acquainted with the leading figures of the most important generation of German writers and philosophers. In his groundbreaking History he discusses the history of religion, philosophy, and literature in Germany up to his time, seen through his own highly opinionated, politically aware, philosophically astute, and always ironic perspective. This work, and other writings focussing especially on Heine's rethinking of Hegel's philosophy, are presented here in a new translation by Howard Pollack-Milgate. The volume also includes an introduction by Terry Pinkard which examines Heine both in relation to Hegel and Nietzsche and as a thinker in his own right.

Download or read book Histories of the Devil written by Jeremy Tambling and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about representations of the devil in English and European literature. Tracing the fascination in literature, philosophy, and theology with the irreducible presence of what may be called evil, or comedy, or the carnivalesque, this book surveys the parts played by the devil in the texts derived from the Faustus legend, looks at Marlowe and Shakespeare, Rabelais, Milton, Blake, Hoffmann, Baudelaire, Goethe, Dostoevsky, Bulgakov, and Mann, historically, speculatively, and from the standpoint of critical theory. It asks: Is there a single meaning to be assigned to the idea of the diabolical? What value lies in thinking diabolically? Is it still the definition of a good poet to be of the devil's party, as Blake argued?
Download or read book Transhumanism written by David Livingstone and published by David Livingstone. This book was released on 2015-09-02 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transhumanism is a recent movement that extols man’s right to shape his own evolution, by maximizing the use of scientific technologies, to enhance human physical and intellectual potential. While the name is new, the idea has long been a popular theme of science fiction, featured in such films as 2001: A Space Odyssey, Blade Runner, the Terminator series, and more recently, The Matrix, Limitless, Her and Transcendence. However, as its adherents hint at in their own publications, transhumanism is an occult project, rooted in Rosicrucianism and Freemasonry, and derived from the Kabbalah, which asserts that humanity is evolving intellectually, towards a point in time when man will become God. Modeled on the medieval legend of the Golem and Frankenstein, they believe man will be able to create life itself, in the form of living machines, or artificial intelligence. Spearheaded by the Cybernetics Group, the project resulted in both the development of the modern computer and MK-Ultra, the CIA’s “mind-control” program. MK-Ultra promoted the “mind-expanding” potential of psychedelic drugs, to shape the counterculture of the 1960s, based on the notion that the shamans of ancient times used psychoactive substances, equated with the “apple” of the Tree of Knowledge. And, as revealed in the movie Lucy, through the use of “smart drugs,” and what transhumanists call “mind uploading,” man will be able to merge with the Internet, which is envisioned as the end-point of Kabbalistic evolution, the formation of a collective consciousness, or Global Brain. That awaited moment is what Ray Kurzweil, a director of engineering at Google, refers to as The Singularly. By accumulating the total of human knowledge, and providing access to every aspect of human activity, the Internet will supposedly achieve omniscience, becoming the “God” of occultism, or the Masonic All-Seeing Eye of the reverse side of the American dollar bill.
Download or read book Discovering the Human written by Ralf Haekel and published by V&R Unipress. This book was released on 2013-08-14 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Discovering the Human' investigates the emergence of the modern human sciences and their impact on literature, art and other media in the 18th and 19th centuries. Up until the 1830s, science and culture were part of a joint endeavour to discover and explore the secret of life. The question 'What is life?' unites science and the arts during the Ages of Enlightenment and Romanticism, and at the end of the Romantic period, a shift of focus from the human as an organic whole to the specialized disciplines signals the dawning of modernity. The emphasis of the edited collection is threefold: the first part sheds light on the human in art and science in the Age of Enlightenment, the second part is concerned with the transitions taking place at the turn of the 19th century. The chapters forming the third part investigate the impact of different media on the concept of the human in science, literature and film.
Download or read book Reading Heinrich Heine written by Anthony Phelan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-03-01 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive study of the nineteenth-century German poet Heinrich Heine. Anthony Phelan examines the complete range of Heine's work, from the early poetry and 'Pictures of Travel' to the last poems, including personal polemic and journalism. Phelan provides original and detailed readings of Heine's major poetry and throws fresh light on his virtuoso political performances that have too often been neglected by critics. Through his critical relationship with Romanticism, Heine confronted the problem of modernity in startlingly original ways that still speak to the concerns of post-modern readers. Phelan highlights the importance of Heine for the critical understanding of modern literature, and in particular the responses to Heine's work by Adorno, Kraus and Benjamin. Heine emerges as a figure of immense European significance, whose writings need to be seen as a major contribution to the articulation of modernity.
Download or read book David Ben Gurion and the Jewish Renaissance written by Shlomo Aronson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a reappraisal of David Ben-Gurion's role in Jewish-Israeli history from the perspective of the twenty-first century, in the larger context of the Zionist "renaissance," of which he was a major and unique exponent. Some have described Ben-Gurion's Zionism as a dream that has gone sour, or a utopia doomed to be unfulfilled. Now - after the dust surrounding Israel's founding father has settled, archives have been opened, and perspective has been gained since Ben-Gurion's downfall - this book presents a fresh look at this statesman-intellectual and his success and tragic failures during a unique period of time that he and his peers described as the "Jewish renaissance." The resulting reappraisal offers a new analysis of Ben-Gurion's actual role as a major player in Israeli, Middle Eastern, and global politics.
