Book excerpt: In Asian Nietzsche, I have attempted to re-create the “philosophical conversation” and - partly by means of humor and surprising references to popular culture, sex, and lingerie - make accessible to contemporary audiences discussions of the comparative study of ideas, religions, nations, and civilizations. This includes an inquiry into the origins of fundamental or revolutionary creativity as compared to the far more common phenomenon across societies and world history, namely, relative cultural stasis or a lack of fundamental creativity and innovation.

This includes an inquiry into the origins of fundamental or revolutionary creativity as compared to the far more common phenomenon across societies and world history, namely, relative cultural stasis or a lack of fundamental creativity and innovation. It is conventional wisdom today that "China" and "Asia" are ascendant. But why? And are they? Is it simply due to economic growth and appropriate economic policies cultivating economic growth? From the standpoint of Japan - and especially Japanese right - it is "about time" that China, India, and the Asian tigers are catching up with the economy, technology, and society of Japan (and also Western civilization). However, this is only economic progress. I thus raise the question: Can traditional and culturally conservative Asian, "Confucian," "Hindu," and "Islamic" societies ever actually compete with Western societies and Japan culturally and technologically - especially in terms of innovation, creativity, and originality at its highest levels?

This is because writing is work, writing is labor. This is my view and, obviously, the view of people around the world. It is also because of the high-level of the book in my view, and potentially, readers in the US and around the world. The innovative artist, James Koenig, made the basic image of the cover art for Christopher Portosa; however, the concept of the design of the cover art is by Christopher Portosa (inspired by a famous Japanese print).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you were looking for a philosopher likely to appeal to Americans, Friedrich Nietzsche would be far from your first choice. After all, in his blazing career, Nietzsche took aim at nearly all the foundations of modern American life: Christian morality, the Enlightenment faith in reason, and the idea of human equality. Despite that, for more than a century Nietzsche has been a hugely popular—and surprisingly influential—figure in American thought and culture. In American Nietzsche, Jennifer Ratner-Rosenhagen delves deeply into Nietzsche's philosophy, and America’s reception of it, to tell the story of his curious appeal. Beginning her account with Ralph Waldo Emerson, whom the seventeen-year-old Nietzsche read fervently, she shows how Nietzsche’s ideas first burst on American shores at the turn of the twentieth century, and how they continued alternately to invigorate and to shock Americans for the century to come. She also delineates the broader intellectual and cultural contexts within which a wide array of commentators—academic and armchair philosophers, theologians and atheists, romantic poets and hard-nosed empiricists, and political ideologues and apostates from the Left and the Right—drew insight and inspiration from Nietzsche’s claims for the death of God, his challenge to universal truth, and his insistence on the interpretive nature of all human thought and beliefs. At the same time, she explores how his image as an iconoclastic immoralist was put to work in American popular culture, making Nietzsche an unlikely posthumous celebrity capable of inspiring both teenagers and scholars alike. A penetrating examination of a powerful but little-explored undercurrent of twentieth-century American thought and culture, American Nietzsche dramatically recasts our understanding of American intellectual life—and puts Nietzsche squarely at its heart.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wei and Liu argue that Chinese nationalism is a multifaceted concept. At different historical moments and under certain circumstances, it had different meanings and interacted with other competing motives and interests. The authors of this timely volume, all of whom are of Chinese origin and bi-national education, have produced a balanced and non-culture-bound work of scholarship. It contains diverse, provocative, and in-depth analysis of both historical and recent case studies that can shed light on the contemporary incarnation of Chinese nationalism. This interdisciplinary anthology looks at variants of Chinese nationalism upheld and contended by social groups, classes, and power-holders from the past to the present. The authors argue that nationalism can be supported by both patriotic and group- or party-oriented interest calculations. Forms of Chinese nationalism can result from situational as well as ideological conditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new 2023 translation into American English from the original manuscript of Nietzsche's 1878 Menschliches, Allzumenschliches/ Human, All Too Human. This is volume 3 in The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche from Newcomb Livraria Press.This chronological, systematic set of Nietzsche's works is the first ever bilingual "Hauptwerke" or complete major works of Nietzsche published in English & the original German. Human, All too Human was first published in 1878 on the 100th anniversary of Voltaire’s death, a second expanded edition was published in 1886 with a preface and consolidated versions of his Miscellaneous Opinions and Sayings (1879) and The Wanderer and his Shadow (1880). These two works are sometimes published separately. This edition is the second extended edition with both volumes. Human, All too Human is primarily an “Aphorismensammlung”, a collection of aphorisms. Across 350 small sections, Nietzsche deals with a vast range of topics, some trivial and some ancient- music, various artists including Goethe, Schiller, Hegel, and Schopenhauer, the Reformation, reason and logic, German idealism as a whole and the dwindling of Metaphysics. Human, all too Human, is Nietzsche’s first coordinated attack on Metaphysics itself. He is tremendously dismissive of German Criticism and Idealism and is not interested in being a logician in this tradition, but shows a deep understanding of the fields even in his short dismissal of them. Moral sentiments he understands in a Darwinian-historical sense, emerging from physical need and intellectualized in Metaphysics, and we see here the beginnings of his concept of the Wille zur Macht and the übermensch.
