Book excerpt: Three complete Plato dialogues - Euthyphro, Meno, Republic Book I - in a fresh English translation, with extensive commentary and original illustrations. "Reason and Persuasion" is suitable as an introductory textbook or for more advanced students of Plato and philosophy. The fourth edition is substantially revised, extended and improved. "There is no dearth of textbooks offering an introduction to Plato's thought, but Holbo's stands apart in the scope of its introductory material and its user-friendly style ... The colloquial yet accurate translation by Belle Waring serves to reduce the distance between the student and the world of the dialogues ... Holbo's commentaries on these three dialogues serve to situate them both as individual works and also as parts of Plato's overall project of showing the problems of persuasion divorced from reason. Rather than taking a strictly scholarly approach the author has made clear the relevance of these texts for questions even non-philosophers should find worth asking. For instructors seeking an introductory text for first time readers of Plato, Holbo's book is worthy of consideration." Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews (review of the 3rd edition)

Download or read book Experience, Reason, and the Crisis of the Republic Volume 2 written by Gilbert Null and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-29 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experience, Reason, and the Crisis of the Republic is a four-part realist polemic against nominalism, relativism, and nihilism in two volumes. This second volume’s philosophy of language is a noetic modal semantics of languages encrypting intentional contents of experiences and the realist metaphysic of experience and reason applied by its historical and political analysis of the 21st Century crisis of European and American politics and culture. It argues that the contemporary crisis is symptomatic of the dominance of nominalist alternatives to the realist premises of Husserl’s metaphysic of experience and reason, that our experiences of ourselves and others include values, and that there are natural rights which (unlike civil entitlements) are God-given. It uses the modal logic of experience to prove that God exists, and then designs and seeks realist sociologists to implement empirical studies of political and economic consequences of nominalist metaphysical premises since 1912.

This book was released on 2021-09-29 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experience, Reason, and the Crisis of the Republic is a four-part realist polemic against nominalism, relativism, and nihilism in two volumes of two parts each. The first part of this first volume formulates (in 1st-order logic) Husserl’s realist dependence ontology of objects of experiences as the Calculus [CP] of Phenomena, defines eight types of dependence, contrasts realist to nominalist constituent ontologies and atomism and [CP] to Leonard-Goodman’s nominalist constituent ontology [LGCI] of individuals, and discusses [CP] in relation to time and classical realist ontologies. The second part of this volume uses [CP]-objects as Urelements in a class-set correlation theory [E] of intentional experiences of objects, contrasts Kant’s to Husserl’s views of experienced time and Kant’s view of noumena to Husserl’s view of phenomena as limits of experience, and argues that empirical facts are [CP]-relation complexes and finite ordinals are formal objects abstracted from events of experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pillars of the Republic is a pioneering study of common-school development in the years before the Civil War. Public acceptance of state school systems, Kaestle argues, was encouraged by the people's commitment to republican government, by their trust in Protestant values, and by the development of capitalism. The author also examines the opposition to the Founding Fathers' educational ideas and shows what effects these had on our school system.

Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller The author of the beloved #1 New York Times bestseller Reading Lolita in Tehran returns with the next chapter of her life in books—a passionate and deeply moving hymn to America Ten years ago, Azar Nafisi electrified readers with her multimillion-copy bestseller Reading Lolita in Tehran, which told the story of how, against the backdrop of morality squads and executions, she taught The Great Gatsby and other classics of English and American literature to her eager students in Iran. In this electrifying follow-up, she argues that fiction is just as threatened—and just as invaluable—in America today. Blending memoir and polemic with close readings of her favorite novels, she describes the unexpected journey that led her to become an American citizen after first dreaming of America as a young girl in Tehran and coming to know the country through its fiction. She urges us to rediscover the America of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and challenges us to be truer to the words and spirit of the Founding Fathers, who understood that their democratic experiment would never thrive or survive unless they could foster a democratic imagination. Nafisi invites committed readers everywhere to join her as citizens of what she calls the Republic of Imagination, a country with no borders and few restrictions, where the only passport to entry is a free mind and a willingness to dream.

Download or read book Cicero on Politics and the Limits of Reason written by Jed W. Atkins and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-17 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A prolific philosopher who also held Rome's highest political office, Cicero was uniquely qualified to write on political philosophy. In this book Professor Atkins provides a fresh interpretation of Cicero's central political dialogues - the Republic and Laws. Devoting careful attention to form as well as philosophy, Atkins argues that these dialogues together probe the limits of reason in political affairs and explore the resources available to the statesman given these limitations. He shows how Cicero appropriated and transformed Plato's thought to forge original and important works of political philosophy. The book demonstrates that Cicero's Republic and Laws are critical for understanding the history of the concepts of rights, the mixed constitution and natural law. It concludes by comparing Cicero's thought to the modern conservative tradition and argues that Cicero provides a perspective on utopia frequently absent from current philosophical treatments.

Download or read book Sentiment, Reason, and Law written by Jeffrey T. Martin and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if the job of police was to cultivate the political will of a community to live with itself (rather than enforce law, keep order, or fight crime)? In Sentiment, Reason, and Law, Jeffrey T. Martin describes a world where that is the case. The Republic of China on Taiwan spent nearly four decades as a single-party state under dictatorial rule (1949–1987) before transitioning to liberal democracy. Here, Martin describes the social life of a neighborhood police station during the first rotation in executive power following the democratic transition. He shows an apparent paradox of how a strong democratic order was built on a foundation of weak police powers, and demonstrates how that was made possible by the continuity of an illiberal idea of policing. His conclusion from this paradox is that the purpose of the police was to cultivate the political will of the community rather than enforce laws and keep order. As Sentiment, Reason, and Law shows, the police force in Taiwan exists as an "anthropological fact," bringing an order of reality that is always, simultaneously and inseparably, meaningful and material. Martin unveils the power of this fact, demonstrating how the politics of sentiment that took shape under autocratic rule continued to operate in everyday policing in the early phase of the democratic transformation, even as a more democratic mode of public reason and the ultimate power of legal right were becoming more significant.
