The Ego and Its Own is an 1844 work by German philosopher Max Stirner. It presents a radically nominalist and individualist critique of, on the one hand, Christianity, nationalism and traditional morality, and on the other, humanism, utilitarianism, liberalism and much of the then-burgeoning socialist movement, advocating instead an amoral (although importantly not inherently immoral or antisocial) egoism.Stirner believed that there was no objective social reality independent of the individual; social classes, the state, the masses, and humanity are abstractions and therefore need not be considered seriously. He wrote of a finite, empirical ego, which he saw as the motive force of every human action. Writing chiefly for working-class readers, he taught that all persons are capable of the self-awareness that would make them "egoists," or true individuals.Max Stirner in his book The Ego and His Own (1845) recommended, instead of social reform, a ruthless individualism that should seek satisfaction by any means and at whatever risk. A small group of other individualists.

We all want to make sense of lifethe good, the painful, the miraculous. Who are we? Why are we here? What should we do with our lives? How do we hold on to hope, in a world that is both beautiful and broken? Through eight lyrical and reflective essays, one of todays most thoughtful spiritual writers Steven Garber explores the idea of the "proximate"a word from the Latin "proximatus,"to draw near. Garber invites us to draw near to the deepest realities of life and to see with greater clarity and compassionrecognizing what is true, right, and beautiful in the world, even as we see the suffering all around us. Hints of Hope probes what it means to be human; to wrestle with the contradictions we all face in our marriages, in our workplaces, in our friendships and vocations. We all experience beauty and brokenness, wonder and despair, joy and sorrow. We live with disappointment and grief and pain . . . wanting more, expecting more, but never being completely fulfilled. Paradoxically, as we make peace with the proximate, our vision is expanded to see more clearly the glimmers of beauty and grace that thread their way through our lives. Garber suggests that those hints of hope are enough in this frail world of ours, "a world stretched taut between what is and what someday will be."Written in memoir form, Hints of Hope weaves together decades of Garbers travels, teaching, and personal musings to offer a tapestry of wisdom on vocation, culture, faith, and hope. Readers of Wendell Berry, Parker Palmer, Marilyn McEntyre, and Frederick Buechner will find a rich, soul-nourishing feast within these pages.

Benedetto Neola explores how late antique Neoplatonists, from Iamblichus in the third-fourth century to Damascius in the fifth-sixth, reimagined what it meant to be a true philosopher. For them, the philosopher was not simply a thinker or tireless talker, but a divine soul sent by the gods to rescue humanity from the material world. Figures like Pythagoras, Socrates, and Plato are portrayed as untouched by the charms of the sensible realm. Always connected to the divine, they are ritual practitioners whose sacred mission is carried out not through temple rites, but through speech itself understood as the highest offering to the gods. These divinely inspired words, spoken in a state of possession and revealing truths about the divine, are the noblest form of ritual: an act that unites the philosopher with the gods and brings salvation to others. Combining philosophy, theology, and ritual, the author uncovers a forgotten dimension of ancient thought in which words save souls.

Come and hear all ye that fearGod, and I will declare what He hathDone for my soul.Psalm lxvi. 16.The text in this edition is as nearly as possible that of the eighth, which was corrected by Bunyan himself a few weeks before his death. The text of A Relation is that of the first edition of 1765. A few minor changes have been introduced for the convenience of the reader. The use of capital letters has been considerably modified, and the orthography has been in places modernized. In some few instances the Scripture references have been added to quotations where they did not appear in the original. It must be remembered that Bunyan often quoted Scripture inexactly, and it has not been deemed necessary to make all his quotations follow the text of the Authorized Version.The marginal summary is not part of the original, but has been prepared for this edition in order that it may correspond with the Societys editions of the Pilgrims Progress.The illustrations have been prepared for this work by Mr. Harold Copping, whose illustrations to the Pilgrims Progress have justly attracted much attention.

A filosofia na era trágica dos gregos (1873) constitui um dos comentários mais importantes da filosofia pré-socrática. Escrito póstumo e inacabado, Nietzsche defende nele a tese de que os pensadores anteriores a Plato foram os unicos que ousaram compreender a dimenso tragica das forças que regem a vida dos homens. Ao contrario da filosofia posterior, no reduziram metafisicamente a realidade a dimenso do certo e do errado. Se costumamos atribuir a Socrates o inicio da filosofia, Nietzsche sugere aqui que talvez ela tenha justamente terminado com ele.

"What is justiceand is it better to be just than unjust?"This is the question that launches one of the most influential intellectual journeys in history. In The Republic, Plato constructs a "city in speech" (Kallipolis) to examine the nature of the perfect society and the perfect individual. Through a series of rigorous and challenging dialogues, he explores the radical idea of the Philosopher King, the necessity of communal living for the ruling class, and the profound Allegory of the Cave, which suggests that our perception of the world is but a shadow of a higher reality. Whether you are interested in political science, ethics, or metaphysics, The Republic remains the essential manual for understanding the structure of civilization.The Three-Part Soul: Plato argues that both the state and the individual soul are divided into three parts: Reason, Spirit, and Appetite. True justice, he claims, is achieved only when these parts exist in perfect harmony, with Reason (the Philosopher) at the helm.A Vision of the Ideal State: From the censorship of poetry to the "Noble Lie" used to maintain social order, Platos vision of the Republic is both inspiring and controversial. He provides a blueprint for an educational system designed to identify and cultivate the most virtuous leaders, ensuring the city is governed by wisdom rather than greed.Why It Is a Global Foundation: Alfred North Whitehead famously noted that all of Western philosophy is but "a series of footnotes to Plato." The Republic is the origin point for nearly every debate regarding democracy, tyranny, and the role of the individual in society. To read it is to engage with the very DNA of Western civilization.Uncover the foundations of truth. Purchase "The Republic" today.

"Philosophy is not a trick for the public, it is for the soul."Seneca was a statesman, dramatist, and one of Romes wealthiest menyet he spent his final days writing these letters to his friend Lucilius on how to find true freedom. Moral Letters to Lucilius is a deep dive into the practical application of Stoicism. Seneca tackles the universal anxieties we still face today: the fear of death, the burden of grief, the noise of the crowd, and the pursuit of luxury. He argues that the only true wealth is a mind that is at peace with itself and the natural order of the world.The "Doctor of the Soul": Senecas writing style is warm, conversational, and filled with memorable aphorisms. He treats philosophy as a "remedy" for the sickness of the mind. Whether he is advising on how to choose a true friend or how to handle a difficult boss, his advice is designed to be used the moment you put the book down.The Resilience of the Mind: Through these letters, Seneca prepares Lucilius (and the reader) for the "slings and arrows of outrageous fortune." He emphasizes the practice of Premeditatio Malorumrehearsing potential difficulties so that they never take us by surpriseand the importance of living every day as if it were our last.Why It Is a Modern Essential: From Silicon Valley CEOs to modern therapists, Senecas letters remain a go-to resource for mental clarity. He teaches us that we "suffer more often in imagination than in reality" and provides the tools to build an unshakable inner character in an unpredictable world.Begin your journey toward a calmer life.
