J. C. D. Clark The Enlightenment: An Idea And Its History
Lafeltrinelli.it
Brand: J. C. D. Clark
EAN: 9780198916284
Categoria: Libri e riviste
Enlightenment studies are currently in a state of flux, with unresolved arguments among its adherents about its dates, its locations, and the contents of the 'movement'. This book cuts the Gordian knot.\n\nThere are many books claiming to explain the Enlightenment, but most assume that it was a thing. J. C. D. Clark shows what it actually was, namely a historiographical concept. Currently 'the Enlightenment' is a term widely accepted across popular culture and in a variety of academic disciplines, notably history, philosophy, political theory, political science, literary studies, and theology; Clark calls for a fundamental reconsideration in each. \n\nThe Enlightenment: An Idea and Its History provides a critical historical analysis of the Enlightenment in England, Scotland, France, Germany, and the United States from c. 1650 to the present. It argues that the degree of commonality between social and intellectual movements in each--and, more broadly, between the five societies--has been overstated for polemical purposes. Clark shows that the concept of 'the Enlightenment' was not widely adopted in those societies until the mid-twentieth century; indeed, that it was unknown in the eighteenth. Without the concept, people at the time were unable to act in ways that would have created the Enlightenment as a coherent movement. Since the conventional account has held that the Enlightenment was a phenomenon, the idea could be used as a component of what has been called a 'civil religion': a summing up of the myths of origin, aims, and essential values of a society from which dissent is not permitted. An appreciation that it was instead a historiographical concept undermines, in turn, the idea that there was any great transition to what came to be called 'modernity'.

\"Ho perso mio padre a quattro anni: non l'ho conosciuto. Per tutta la vita ho desiderato conoscerlo e, maturando, ho pensato di ricostruirne la figura basandomi sui documenti che ne avevano segnato la vita. Ero certo che la sua vita presentasse momenti, vicende e variazioni che meritavano di essere conosciute almeno da me. Ho girato molto attorno a questo desiderio di ricerca per rispondere a un bisogno mio, ma anche quasi per segnare una origine a me, ai miei figli e ai miei nipoti, quasi per assegnare a ciascuno un punto di passaggio per la propria storia. Alla fine della ricerca mi accorgo che la vita di mio padre non è diversa da quella di altri imprenditori, solo che a me, che ho promosso e condotto la ricerca, interessava conoscere questa vita e questa personalità più di altre e per concretare la ricerca mi ha spinto e sostenuto una affettuosa curiosità\".

Ben A Minteer;mark Klett;stephen J. Pyne Wild Visions: Wilderness As Image And Idea
Lafeltrinelli.it
Brand: Ben A Minteer;mark Klett;stephen J. Pyne
EAN: 9780300260724
Categoria: Libri e riviste
A stunning combination of landscape photography and thematic essays exploring how the concept of wilderness has evolved over time\n \n Our ideas of wilderness have evolved dramatically over the past one hundred and fifty years, from a view of wild country as an inviolable \"place apart\" to one that exists only within the matrix of human activity. This shift in understanding has provoked complicated questions about the importance of the wild in American environmentalism, as well as new aesthetic expectations as we reframe the wilderness as (to some degree) a human creation.\n \nWild Visions is distinctive in its union of landscape photography and environmental thought, a merging of short, thematic essays with a striking visual narrative. Often, the wild is viewed in binary terms: either revered as sacred and ecologically pure or dismissed as spoiled by human activities. This book portrays wilderness instead as an evolving gamut of understandings, a collage of views and ideas that is still in process.

Brand: Christopher J. Lebron
EAN: 9780197577356
Categoria: Libri e riviste
A condensed and accessible intellectual history that traces the genesis of the ideas that have built into the #BlackLivesMatter movement in a bid to help us make sense of the emotions, demands, and arguments of present-day activists and public thinkers.\n\nStarted in the wake of George Zimmerman's 2013 acquittal in the death of Trayvon Martin, the #BlackLivesMatter movement has become a powerful and incendiary campaign demanding redress for the brutal and unjustified treatment of black bodies by law enforcement in the United States. The movement is only a few years old, but as Christopher J. Lebron argues in this book, the sentiment behind it is not; the plea and demand that \"Black Lives Matter\" comes out of a much older and richer tradition arguing for the equal dignity--and not just equal rights--of black people. \n\nIn this updated edition, The Making of Black Lives Matter presents a condensed and accessible intellectual history of the #BlackLivesMatter movement and expands on the movement's relevancy. This edition includes a new introduction that explores how the movement's core ideas have been challenged, re-affirmed, and re-imagined during the white nationalism of the Trump years, as well as a new chapter that examines the ideas and importance of Angela Davis and Amiri Baraka as significant participants in the Black Power Movement and Black Arts Movement, respectively. Drawing on the work of these revolutionary black public intellectuals, as well as Frederick Douglass, Ida B. Wells, Langston Hughes, Zora Neal Hurston, Anna Julia Cooper, Audre Lorde, James Baldwin, and Martin Luther King Jr., Lebron clarifies what it means to assert that \"Black Lives Matter\" when faced with contemporary instances of anti-black law enforcement. He also illuminates the crucial difference between the problem signaled by the social media hashtag and how we think that we ought to address the problem. As Lebron states, police body cameras, or even the exhortation for civil rights mean nothing in the absence of equality and dignity. To upset dominant practices of abuse, oppression, and disregard, we must reach instead for radical sensibility. Radical sensibility requires that we become cognizant of the history of black thought and activism in order to make sense of the emotions, demands, and argument of present-day activists and public thinkers. Only in this way can we truly embrace and pursue the idea of racial progress in America.

Edward J. Watts The Eternal Decline And Fall Of Rome: The History Of A Dangerous Idea
Lafeltrinelli.it
Brand: Edward J. Watts
EAN: 9780190076719
Categoria: Libri e riviste
As this book intriguingly explores, for those who would make Rome great again and their victims, ideas of Roman decline and renewal have had a long and violent history.\n\nThe decline of Rome has been a constant source of discussion for more than 2200 years. Everyone from American journalists in the twenty-first century AD to Roman politicians at the turn of the third century BC have used it as a tool to illustrate the negative consequences of changes in their world. Because Roman history is so long, it provides a buffet of ready-made stories of decline that can help develop the context around any snapshot. And Rome did, in fact, decline and, eventually, fall. An empire that once controlled all or part of more than 40 modern European, Asian, and African countries no longer exists. Roman prophets of decline were, ultimately, proven correct-a fact that makes their modern invocations all the more powerful. If it happened then, it could happen now.\n\nThe Eternal Decline and Fall of Rome tells the stories of the people who built their political and literary careers around promises of Roman renewal as well as those of the victims they blamed for causing Rome's decline. Each chapter offers the historical context necessary to understand a moment or a series of moments in which Romans, aspiring Romans, and non--Romans used ideas of Roman decline and restoration to seize power and remake the world around them. The story begins during the Roman Republic just after 200 BC. It proceeds through the empire of Augustus and his successors, traces the Roman loss of much of western Europe in the fifth century AD, and then follows Roman history as it runs through the Eastern Roman Empire (Byzantium) until its fall in 1453. The final two chapters look at ideas of Roman decline and renewal from the fifteenth century until today. If Rome illustrates the profound danger of the rhetoric of decline, it also demonstrates the rehabilitative potential of a rhetoric that focuses on collaborative restoration, a lesson of great relevance to our world today.

L'idea che esista un solo tipo di capitalismo e che le economie capitalistiche siano fondamentalmente identiche riflette un modo di pensare comune ai tempi della guerra fredda, quando si fronteggiavano due superpotenze, rappresentanti due ideologie contrapposte: il capitalismo, fondato sulla proprietà privata e il comunismo o il socialismo. Tuttavia già dopo la caduta del Muro di Berlino, ma ben prima delle crisi di inizio XXI secolo, si è cominciato a mettere in discussione l'idea che ci sia una sola forma di capitalismo. Scrivendo in un linguaggio accessibile, gli autori dimostrano come esistano quattro diversi tipi di capitalismo: quello basato sull'imprenditorialità e l'innovazione, quello delle grandi imprese, quello diretto dallo stato, e infine quello oligarchico. Non tutti sono buoni e non tutti producono crescita. Le analisi di queste grandi tematiche risultano particolarmente importanti nell'attuale turbolenta fase storica.

Dalla condanna da parte del Cristianesimo dei sogni e dei loro interpreti fin dall'antichità, al pensiero nazista di Heidegger e l'estremo orrore dell'uccisione di milioni di persone fatte sparire come se non fossero mai esistite con le camere a gas e i forni crematori. Il j'accuse di Massimo Fagioli, che da oltre 40 anni denuncia la responsabilità criminale del pensatore tedesco, si svolge lungo la storia del pensiero, dai presocratici a oggi, intorno all'esistenza di una realtà umana oltre la coscienza. Quell'irrazionale che era per i greci l'animalità e che per la Chiesa cattolica ancora oggi è il male, il diavolo. All'idea di Heidegger di una violenza originaria umana che va oltre la distruzione delle cose, Fagioli oppone la scoperta della pulsione di annullamento, qualcosa che da dentro va verso l'altro essere umano, ma che alla nascita per la realtà biologica è fantasia di sparizione, capacità di immaginare, l'esatto opposto di \"essere per l'eliminazione dell'altro\".

Diabolico, potente e pieno di colpi di scena, La donna alla finestra è un thriller psicologico sofisticato e magistrale, degno del miglior Hitchcock.\r\n«Eccezionale. Un thriller contemporaneo ma con un retrogusto da vecchio film noir» - Stephen King\r\nAnna Fox vive rinchiusa nella sua casa di New York e la sola idea di mettere piede fuori dalla porta rischia di provocarle un attacco di panico. Passa le sue giornate vagando da una stanza all'altra con un bicchiere di Pinot in mano, chattando con uomini sconosciuti, guardando vecchi film noir - la sua passione - e soprattutto... spiando i vicini con l'aiuto della sua Nikon D5500. Nel mirino ora ci sono i Russell, che da poco si sono trasferiti nella villetta al lato opposto del parco. Una madre, un padre e un ragazzino adolescente: la famiglia perfetta, quella che Anna rivorrebbe con sé. Una notte però alla finestra dei Russell, Anna assiste a qualcosa di terribile, qualcosa di così sconvolgente che sgretolerà il suo fragile equilibrio e metterà a nudo la verità che ha sepolto per mesi. Ma il giorno dopo un dubbio spaventoso si insinua nella sua mente: la scena che ha visto è reale o frutto della sua immaginazione? Qualcuno è davvero in pericolo o a terrorizzarla è solo la sua paranoia?

T. J. Clark Heaven On Earth: Painting And The Life To Come
Lafeltrinelli.it
Brand: T. J. Clark
EAN: 9780500021385
Categoria: Libri e riviste
The idea of heaven on earth haunts the human imagination. The day will come, say believers, when the pain and confusion of mortal life will give way to a transfigured community. Such a vision of the world seems indelible. Even politics, some reckon, has not escaped from the realm of the sacred: its dreams of the future still borrow their imagery from the prophets. \n\nIn Heaven on Earth, T.J. Clark sets out to investigate the very different ways painting has given form to the dream of God's kingdom come. He goes back to the late Middle Ages and Renaissance - to Giotto in Padua, Bruegel facing the horrors of religious war, Poussin painting the Sacraments, Veronese unfolding the human comedy. Was it to painting's advantage, is Clark's question, that in an age of enforced orthodoxy (threats of hellfire, burnings at the stake) artists could reflect on the powers and limitations of religion without putting their thoughts into words? \n\nAt the heart of the book stands Bruegel's ironic but tender picture of The Land of Cockaigne, but also Veronese's inscrutable Allegory of Love. The story ends with Picasso's Fall of Icarus, made for UNESCO in 1958, which already seems to signal - perhaps to prescribe - an age when all futures are dead.

Laine Tavish is an ordinary woman living an ordinary life in the small town of Angel's Gap, Maryland, as the proprietor of Remember When, an antique treasures and gift shop. At least, that's what everyone in Angel's Gap thinks. They have no idea that she used to be Elaine O'Hara, daughter of the notorious con man Big Jack O'Hara. Or that she grew up moving from place to place, one step ahead of the law. Laine's past has just caught up with her, though - in a very dramatic way. Her long-lost uncle suddenly turned up in her shop, leaving only a cryptic warning before dying in the street, run down by a car. Soon afterward, her home is ransacked. Now it's up to Laine, and a sexy stranger named Max Gannon, to find out who's chasing her, and why. The answer lies in a hidden fortune - a fortune that will change not only Laine's life but also the lives of future generations. And danger and death will surround that fortune for years to come. Until New York City Detective Lieutenant Eve Dallas gets on the case. A thrill-ride of a novel that blends present-day romance and futuristic suspense.

This title offers page-turning action with female sleuth Captain Jay McCaulay. When Jay McCauley wakes drugged in a strange hotel room, she knows things can only get worse. She isn't in the UK. She's in Moscow, and she has no idea how she got there. Memory shot to pieces, Jay returns home to find her beloved uncle Duncan missing. Apparently, she'd been searching for Duncan when she was kidnapped, and when Nikolai, an old friend of Duncan's, turns up asking questions, alarm bells start ringing. Nikolai Koslov is one of the UK's resident Russian oligarchs. Soon Jay uncovers a web of lies and betrayals that stretch from Newbury Racecourse to Siberia. But as the body count rises, it's clear that Jay's biggest threat may be Duncan himself - an honourable family man who seems determined to destroy himself.

L'idea che esista un solo tipo di capitalismo e che le economie capitalistiche siano fondamentalmente identiche riflette un modo di pensare comune ai tempi della guerra fredda, quando si fronteggiavano due superpotenze, rappresentanti due ideologie contrapposte: il capitalismo, fondato sulla proprietà privata e il comunismo o il socialismo. Tuttavia già dopo la caduta del Muro di Berlino, ma ben prima delle crisi di inizio XXI secolo, si è cominciato a mettere in discussione l'idea che ci sia una sola forma di capitalismo. Scrivendo in un linguaggio accessibile, gli autori dimostrano come esistano quattro diversi tipi di capitalismo: quello basato sull'imprenditorialità e l'innovazione, quello delle grandi imprese, quello diretto dallo stato, e infine quello oligarchico. Non tutti sono buoni e non tutti producono crescita. Le analisi di queste grandi tematiche risultano particolarmente importanti nell'attuale turbolenta fase storica.

A young American is stranded in Scotland without any idea of how this has happened. She fights to discover the hidden forces of a shadowy organisation responsible for her abduction. She has been the victim of people trafficking, but her trafficker betrays the organisation due to a hopeless juvenile infatuation with her for which pays with his life. \n\n\nShe lands among a group of isolated people, one of whom shows genuine affection for her but which she only at length is able to return. Her new companion, and an eccentric retired policeman, have been forced to recognise what is going on in the world by what has happened to her. \n\n\nAccompanied by her two new companions, the trio takes the fight to California to try to discover the nature of who has done this to her. There they meet up with other rebels and they achieve some success in fighting the organisation, but their progress becomes increasingly violent as their enemy in turn reacts with ever greater fury. When it overplays its hand, it ruthlessly turns on its own to cover its tracks and retreat to obscurity. But only to wait for its next opportunity.

The Creator invented the game. The stakes were nothing less than the immortal fate of mankind. Yet when fallen angel Jim Heron was challenged to play, he had no idea the voracious demon Devina would be so formidable an adversary-or that the carnal depths to which he was willing to go could prove so fatal. Devina's more than ready to claim victory in this war and has her next scheme already underway: Sissy, a defenseless woman under the influence and an unwitting player in the fight for Heron's heart. At the defining crossroads between salvation and damnation, Heron is ready to do anything it takes to succeed-a suicide mission that will take him into Heaven and Hell, and into the darkest and most sensual shadows that lie in wait at the end of the world ...'Everything J.R.

EAN: 9788806257521
Categoria: Libri e riviste
Il Polacco, un pianista noto per le sue interpretazioni austere, sviluppa per la più giovane Beatriz un amore lirico e irragionevole. Lei, che ama farsi trasportare dalla musica, è riluttante a farsi trasportare dal lirismo, e si oppone all’idea di diventare una musa, un oggetto del desiderio, la sua Beatrice. Rivelarsi l’uno all’altra è un’arte sottile, destinata forse a rimanere inattingibile, che solo la scrittura esatta e imprevedibilmente ironica di J. M. Coetzee riesce a catturare. «Con “Il Polacco” Coetzee torna a vecchie e feconde ossessioni – gli opposti segreti di una vita, la tensione tra implicito ed esplicito, tra predestinazione e volontà – e si inserisce nella famiglia dei romanzi con pianista, come \"Il soccombente\" di Thomas Bernhard, “Gli inconsolabili” di Kazuo Ishiguro e “Ravel” di Jean Echenoz» («Clarín»). Lei è una donna elegante, della buona società di Barcellona. Lui è un pianista settantenne, austero interprete di Chopin. Il nome di lei è Beatriz, quello di lui è così pieno di w e di z che lo chiamano semplicemente «il Polacco». Dopo il concerto organizzato dal circolo musicale del Barri Gòtic e la successiva cena, non paiono destinati a rivedersi. A lei, in fondo, il concerto non è neppure piaciuto: troppo secco e severo. Eppure, a distanza di mesi, il Polacco torna in Spagna: «Sono qui per te». Da quando l’ha incontrata, la sua memoria è piena di lei. Beatriz, assicura il Polacco, è per lui ciò che Beatrice era per Dante: il suo destino, la risposta all’enigma della sua vita. Beatriz non è d’accordo – «Io sono colei che sono!» –, non apprezza i complimenti di lui, lo trova arido, cadaverico, privo di ardore. Qualche giorno insieme a Maiorca, un’avventura incerta in una lingua, l’inglese, che non è quella di nessuno dei due. È tutto ciò che Beatriz concede al Polacco, alla sua ammirazione per lei. Poi più nulla. Ciò che rimane della loro storia, del cieco amore del pianista per la donna «dalle domande profonde» sposata con un banchiere, è in ottantaquattro poesie scritte in polacco. Farle tradurre anziché bruciarle, o anziché lasciarle in un appartamento di Varsavia, è l’unico modo che Beatriz ha per avvicinarsi per l’ultima volta a lui, al suo esasperante, nobile, indecifrabile amore. Ciò che ne risulta è un accesso mediato a un’opera imperfetta, al lascito di un uomo a cui «manca l’arte che ravviva la parola». Punteggiata di ironia, questa breve storia di amore e differenze coinvolge la poesia, la musica, il linguaggio, il trasporto – quello dei sentimenti e quello indotto da Chopin – e la sua traduzione in parole, e offre un inconsueto ribaltamento del punto di vista, dando voce al «provvido scetticismo» di una moderna Beatrice.

Categoria: Libri e riviste
Il Polacco, un pianista noto per le sue interpretazioni austere, sviluppa per la più giovane Beatriz un amore lirico e irragionevole. Lei, che ama farsi trasportare dalla musica, è riluttante a farsi trasportare dal lirismo, e si oppone all’idea di diventare una musa, un oggetto del desiderio, la sua Beatrice. Rivelarsi l’uno all’altra è un’arte sottile, destinata forse a rimanere inattingibile, che solo la scrittura esatta e imprevedibilmente ironica di J. M. Coetzee riesce a catturare. «Con “Il Polacco” Coetzee torna a vecchie e feconde ossessioni – gli opposti segreti di una vita, la tensione tra implicito ed esplicito, tra predestinazione e volontà – e si inserisce nella famiglia dei romanzi con pianista, come \"Il soccombente\" di Thomas Bernhard, “Gli inconsolabili” di Kazuo Ishiguro e “Ravel” di Jean Echenoz» («Clarín»).

Eric J. Holmyard Storia Dell'alchimia
Lafeltrinelli.it
Brand: Eric J. Holmyard
EAN: 9788862885232
Categoria: Libri e riviste
L'oro ha sempre esercitato il suo fascino sull'uomo e da sempre si è cercata la strada per fabbricarlo, per trasmutare i metalli vili nel metallo più prezioso. Quest'idea ha condotto a incessanti (e talvolta bizzarri) esperimenti che hanno traghettato il sapere alla moderna scienza chimica di oggi. Ogni epoca ha visto affiancarsi a molti onesti alchimisti abili truffatori e ciarlatani, furfanti votati a ingannare le persone facendo leva sulla credulità e sulla cupidigia umana, lasciando credere che esistesse un metodo infallibile per acquistare una ricchezza illimitata. Ma l'alchimia è stata anche molto altro: per alcuni significò anni gettati e fortune disperse nel tentativo di preparare un elisir di lunga vita; per altri l'esplorazione di un simbolismo religioso o mistico capace di condurre al perfezionamento dell'anima umana. \"Storia dell'alchimia\" descrive le origini e lo sviluppo di quest'arte, dal periodo greco all'Ottocento, dalla Cina al mondo arabo. L'elemento romanzesco e avventuroso di questa storia è illustrato da passi tratti dalle opere dei suoi più celebri e noti indagatori.

18 d.C. L'impero romano governa gran parte del mondo conosciuto. Oltre la frontiera settentrionale si trova la Britannia, resa vulnerabile alle ambizioni di Roma dalle continue faide tra le varie tribù celtiche. Carataco, figlio di un potente re, non ha idea del destino che lo attende quando viene inviato a addestrarsi con i druidi. Un regime brutale, che trasforma il giovane principe in un guerriero dotato di abilità militari e di un'astuzia strategica essenziali per sconfiggere il più forte dei nemici. Niente, però, può davvero preparare un uomo alla crudele realtà della guerra. Quando il padre di Carataco prende posizione contro le aggressive tribù vicine, non è più tempo per le esercitazioni; questa è una lotta all'ultimo sangue. Ma Carataco e i suoi leali compagni sono pronti a fare tutto il necessario e a sopportare qualsiasi difficoltà per sconfiggere coloro che vogliono distruggere il loro regno. Mentre il caos e la devastazione si diffondono per tutta la Britannia, ovunque aleggia la presenza minacciosa di Roma. Anche se una battaglia è stata vinta, il conflitto con l'impero è sempre più imminente...

Harold J. Berman Law And Revolution
Lafeltrinelli.it
Brand: Harold J. Berman
EAN: 9780674517769
Categoria: Libri e riviste
The roots of modern Western legal institutions and concepts go back nine centuries to the Papal Revolution, when the Western church established its political and legal unity and its independence from emperors, kings, and feudal lords. Out of this upheaval came the Western idea of integrated legal systems consciously developed over generations and centuries. Harold J. Berman describes the main features of these systems of law, including the canon law of the church, the royal law of the major kingdoms, the urban law of the newly emerging cities, feudal law, manorial law, and mercantile law. In the coexistence and competition of these systems he finds an important source of the Western belief in the supremacy of law.\n\nWritten simply and dramatically, carrying a wealth of detail for the scholar but also a fascinating story for the layman, the book grapples with wide-ranging questions of our heritage and our future. One of its main themes is the interaction between the Western belief in legal evolution and the periodic outbreak of apocalyptic revolutionary upheavals.\n\nBerman challenges conventional nationalist approaches to legal history, which have neglected the common foundations of all Western legal systems. He also questions conventional social theory, which has paid insufficient attention to the origin of modern Western legal systems and has therefore misjudged the nature of the crisis of the legal tradition in the twentieth century.
