    A New History of...

    A New History of Western Philosophy

    Hardcover. De gebonden Engelse uitgave, als nieuw

    This book is no less than a guide to the whole of Western philosophy. The ideas that have undergirded our civilization for 2500 years. Anthony Kenny tells the story of philosophy from ancient Greece through the Middle Ages and the Enlightenment into the modern world. He introduces us to the great thinkers and their ideas, starting with Plato, Aristotle, and the other founders of Western thought. In the second part of the book he takes us through a thousand years of medieval philosophy, and shows us the rich intellectual legacy of Christian thinkers like Augustine, Aquinas, and Ockham. Moving into the early modern period, we explore the great works of Descartes, Hobbes, Locke, Leibniz, Spinoza, Hume, and Kant, which remain essential reading today. In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Hegel, Mill, Nietzsche, Freud, and Wittgenstein again transformed the way we see the world. Running though the book are certain themes which have been constant concerns of philosophy since its early beginnings: the fundamental questions of what exists and how we can know about it. The nature of humanity, the mind, truth, and meaning, the place of God in the universe, how we should live and how society should be ordered. Anthony Kenny traces the development of these themes through the centuries. We see how the questions asked and answers offered by the great philosophers of the past remain vividly alive today. Anyone interested in ideas and their history will find this a fascinating and stimulating read.

    Dao De Jing

    Dao De Jing

    Mooi exemplaar. Het is een wat groter vierkant formaat, Engelstalige paperback uitgave met zijflappen. Het is een vertelling in stripvorm over de geschiedenis van Dao de Jing, ook wel Tao Te Ching of Tao Te King geschreven, is een van de belangrijkste geschriften van het taoïsme, dat naast het confucianisme en boeddhisme een van de grote drie Chinese filosofieën is. De teksten van het boek zouden door Lao Zi uitgesproken zijn in de 6e eeuw voor Christus. Fantastische uitgave die geschikt is voor het lesgeven of op een speelse manier leren wat de lessen uit de geschiedenis zijn.

    From bestselling cartoonist C.C. Tsai, a delightfully illustrated version of the classic work of Daoist philosophy

    C.C. Tsai is one of Asia's most popular cartoonists, and his editions of the Chinese classics have sold more than 40 million copies in over twenty languages. Here, he works his magic again with a delightful graphic adaptation of the complete text of Laozi's Dao De Jing, the beloved source of Daoist philosophy. Masterfully transforming Laozi's challenging work into entertaining and enlightening episodes, Tsai offers a uniquely fresh, relevant, and accessible version of one of the world's most influential books.

    After opening with Laozi's biography from the Shi Ji, Tsai turns the stage over to Laozi, who patiently explains his ideas to his earnest students (and us). Laozi describes the spontaneity of natural processes, the paradoxical effects of ethical precepts, the limits of language, the values of simplicity, and, above all else, how to go with the flow. In brief episodes that tantalize and inspire, he takes us into the subtle complexities of human existence. Ultimately, Laozi, a master visionary, guides us to the mountaintop to reveal an expansive view of life.

    A marvelous edition of a timeless classic, this book also presents Laozi's original Chinese text in sidebars on each page, enriching the book for readers and students of Chinese without distracting from the English-language cartoons. The text is skillfully translated by Brian Bruya, who also provides an illuminating introduction.

    CONFUCIUS. The Analects. An Illustrated Edition

    LET OP: Dit boek bevat in het begin wat markeringen met een oranje markeerstift. Uitsluitend in de Introduction. Het is een wat groter vierkant formaat, Engelstalige paperback uitgave met zijflappen. Het is een vertelling in stripvorm over de geschiedenis van Confucius, de Chinese filosoof en politicus tijdens de Zhou-dynastie. Fantastische uitgave die geschikt is voor het lesgeven of op een speelse manier leren wat de lessen uit de geschiedenis zijn.

    For the first time in one volume, The Analects illustrated by bestselling cartoonist C. C. Tsai

    C. C. Tsai is one of Asia's most popular cartoonists, and his editions of the Chinese classics have sold more than 40 million copies in over twenty languages. This volume presents Tsai's delightful graphic adaptation of The Analects, one of the most influential books of all time and a work that continues to inspire countless readers today.

    Tsai's expressive drawings bring Confucius and his students to life as no other edition of the Analects does. See Confucius engage his students over the question of how to become a leader worth following in a society of high culture, upward mobility, and vicious warfare. Which virtues should be cultivated, what makes for a harmonious society, and what are the important things in life? Unconcerned with religious belief but a staunch advocate of tradition, Confucius emphasizes the power of society to create sensitive, respectful, and moral individuals. In many ways, Confucius speaks directly to modern concerns--about how we can value those around us, educate the next generation, and create a world in which people are motivated to do the right thing.

    A marvelous introduction to a timeless classic, this book also features an illuminating foreword by Michael Puett, coauthor of The Path: What Chinese Philosophers Can Teach Us about the Good Life. In addition, Confucius's original Chinese text is artfully presented in narrow sidebars on each page, enriching the books for readers and students of Chinese without distracting from the self-contained English-language cartoons. The text is skillfully translated by Brian Bruya, who also provides an introduction.
