Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What can Montesquieu still teach us today? Montesquieu was the first political writer who first formulated the principles of separation of powers and the independence of justice. He was the first to scientifically study human institutions, both ancient and modern, Asiatic and European, African and American. Again, he was the first thinker to theorize Federal Democracy, systematically tracking down the root causes of human events in its environmental, cultural, historical, and geographical aspects. Analysing several aspects of Montesquieu’s philosophical and political thought, this volume highlights his stoicism, realism, anti-despotism as well as his staunch defence of human dignity. Introducing one of the sharpest thinkers of modernity, this book offers fundamental tools to understand the very ground of our contemporary times.

Book Synopsis Elogio del paradosso by : Giovanni Messina
Download or read book Elogio del paradosso written by Giovanni Messina and published by OMBand D.E.. This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Nel 1835 veniva pubblicato ad Agen un libro intitolato ”Napoleone non è mai esistito”. L’autore, Jean-Baptiste Pérès, un erudito bibliotecario, dimostrava come l’imperatore dei francesi non fosse mai comparso sulla faccia della terra. La sua storia, spedizione in Russia e Waterloo compresi, risultava essere nient’altro che la trasposizione di un mito solare. Circa un secolo prima, il filosofo irlandese Berkeley era riuscito a fare di più. Riducendo la realtà a immagine del nostro spirito, aveva dimostrato la non esistenza del mondo intero. E tanto convincente dovette essere da ricavarne una nomina a vescovo e una cattedra all’università di Oxford. Va ricordato pure che l’immaterialità del pianeta non gli impedì di fondare una colonia nel nuovo continente sovvenzionata col lavoro degli schiavi delle piantagioni. Secondo questo autore, sono le conclusioni di Voltaire, diecimila uomini uccisi a colpi di cannone non sono nient’altro che diecimila impressioni del nostro spirito. Sono questi due degli esempi più notevoli di paradossi che insieme agli arcinoti esempi di Zenone non hanno giovato alla reputazione del genere, trasformandolo col tempo in sinonimo di sofisma o stramberia. Al tempo dei primi sofisti, tuttavia, il paradosso ha un connotato positivo, è abilità dialettica, capacità di convincere. La sua cattiva fama prende piede quando si inoltra in campi come l’etica e la religione che per loro natura mal sopportano di essere sottoposte a indagine razionale. I libri di Protagora vengono bruciati nella pubblica piazza di Atene non perché l’autore si sia reso colpevole di ragionamenti paradossali, quanto piuttosto perché tali ragionamenti ha provato a estendere alla religione, affermando di non poter sostenere né che gli dei sono, né che non sono. Nel momento in cui la ragione prende a occuparsi della divinità diventa fatalmente blasfema, così come nel momento in cui si occupa dell’autorità finisce col risultare irriverente." Indice: I benefici del progresso; L’elogio della monarchia assoluta; Contro lo stato sociale; In difesa del proibizionismo; A favore dell’eugenetica; Rilettura del nazismo; Il valore dell’ipocrisia “Ho letto questo libretto (ma è tale solo per le dimensioni) con un piacere che è andato sempre aumentando man mano che andavo avanti nella lettura. Educativo, realista, cinico e divertente.” (recensione su internet)
Book Synopsis The Fear of Hell by : Piero Camporesi
Download or read book The Fear of Hell written by Piero Camporesi and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fear of Hell is a provocative study of two of the most powerful images in Christianity&—hell and the eucharist. Drawing upon the writings of Italian preachers and theologians of the Counter-Reformation, Piero Camporesi demonstrates the extraordinary power of the Baroque imagination to conjure up punishments, tortures, and the rewards of sin. In the first part of the book, Camporesi argues that hell was a very real part of everyday life during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Preachers portrayed hell in images typical of common experience, comparing it to a great city, a hospital, a prison, a natural disaster, a rioting mob, or a feuding family. The horror lay in the extremes to which these familiar images could be taken. The city of hell was not an ordinary city, but a filthy, stinking, and overcrowded place, an underworld &"sewer&" overflowing with the refuse of decaying flesh and excrement&—shocking but not beyond human imagination. What was most disturbing about this grotesque imagery was the realization by the people of the day that the punishment of afterlife was an extension of their daily experience in a fallen world. Thus, according to Camporesi, the fear of hell had many manifestations over the centuries, aided by such powerful promoters as Gregory the Great and Dante, but ironically it was during the Counter-Reformation that hell's tie with the physical world became irrevocable, making its secularization during the Enlightenment ultimately easier. The eucharist, or host, the subject of the second part of the book, represented corporeal salvation for early modern Christians and was therefore closely linked with the imagery of hell, the place of perpetual corporeal destruction. As the bread of life, the host possessed many miraculous powers of healing and sustenance, which made it precious to those in need. In fact, it was seen to be so precious to some that Camporesi suggests that there was a &"clandestine consumption of the sacred unleavened bread, a network of dealers and sellers&" and a &"market of consumers.&" But to those who ate the host unworthily was the prospect of swift retribution. One wicked priest continued to celebrate the mass despite his sin, and as a result, &"his tongue and half of his face became rotten, thus demonstrating, unwillingly, by the stench of his decaying face, how much the pestiferous smell of his contaminated heart was abominable to God.&" When received properly, however, the host was a source of health and life both in this world and in the world to come. Written with style and imagination, The Fear of Hell offers a vivid and scholarly examination of themes central to Christian culture, whose influence can still be found in our beliefs and customs today.

Book Synopsis The Secret World by : Christopher M. Andrew
Download or read book The Secret World written by Christopher M. Andrew and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 993 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first-ever detailed, comprehensive history of intelligence, from Moses and Sun Tzu to the present day The history of espionage is far older than any of today's intelligence agencies, yet the long history of intelligence operations has been largely forgotten. The codebreakers at Bletchley Park, the most successful World War II intelligence agency, were completely unaware that their predecessors in earlier moments of national crisis had broken the codes of Napoleon during the Napoleonic wars and those of Spain before the Spanish Armada. Those who do not understand past mistakes are likely to repeat them. Intelligence is a prime example. At the outbreak of World War I, the grasp of intelligence shown by U.S. President Woodrow Wilson and British Prime Minister Herbert Asquith was not in the same class as that of George Washington during the Revolutionary War and leading eighteenth-century British statesmen. In this book, the first global history of espionage ever written, distinguished historian Christopher Andrew recovers much of the lost intelligence history of the past three millennia--and shows us its relevance.
