Автор: Theodore John Kaczynski Название: Technological Slavery: Enhanced Edition ISBN: 1944228039 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781944228033 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 3442.00 р. Наличие на складе: Заказано в издательстве.
Описание: Logical, lucid, and direct, Technological Slavery radically reinvigorates and reforms the intellectual foundations of an age-old and resurgent world-view: "Progress" is a myth. Wild nature and humanity are fundamentally incompatible with technological growth. In Technological Slavery, Kaczynski argues that: (i) the unfolding human and environmental crises are the direct, inevitable result of technology itself; (ii) many of the stresses endured in contemporary life are not normal to the human condition, but unique to technological conditions; (iii) wilderness and human life close to nature are realistic and supreme ideals; and, (iv) a revolution to eliminate modern technology and attain these ideals is necessary and far more achievable than would first appear.
Drawing on a broad range of disciplines, Kaczynski weaves together a set of visionary social theories to form a revolutionary perspective on the dynamics of history and the evolution of societies. The result is a comprehensive challenge to the fundamental values and assumptions of the modern technology-driven world, pinning the cause of the rapidly unfolding catastrophe on technology itself, while offering a realistic hope for ultimate recovery. Note: Theodore John Kaczynski does not receive any remuneration for this book.

Описание: In 52 BC Caesar`s continued strategy of annihilation had engendered a spirit of desperation, which detonated into a revolt of Gallic tribes under the leadership of the charismatic young Arvernian noble Vercingetorix. This book deals with this topic.
Описание: Hailed as magisterial when it first appeared, Greek Homosexuality remains an academic milestone and continues to be of major importance for students and scholars of gender studies. Kenneth Dover explores the understanding of homosexuality in ancient Greece, examining a vast array of material and textual evidence that leads him to provocative conclusions. This new release of the 1989 second edition, for which Dover wrote an epilogue reflecting on the impact of his book, includes two specially commissioned forewords assessing the author’s legacy and the place of his text within modern studies of gender in the ancient world.
Описание: This book is about the most sweeping reform in the history of the French monarchy: the creation of assemblies at all levels of administration. The resistance of lords and office holders exposed their hereditary power over commoners, who sought to throw off their subordination when the crisis of the monarchy offered the opportunity in 1789. -- .

Описание: Est-ce l’harmonie des Sirenes dans le mythe d’Er qui s’inspire d’une doctrine remontant au pythagorisme ancien ou, inversement, est-ce la doctrine enigmatique rapportee par Jamblique et definissant l’harmonie des Sirenes comme etant la tetractys et l’oracle de Delphes, qui puise dans ce fameux passage de la Republique? Que signifie l’harmonie des Sirenes pour les Pythagoriciens et que signifie-t-elle pour Platon? Quel est son rapport avec le contexte philosophique de la Republique? Quel est le lien entre, d’une part, les themes pythagoricien et platonicien de l’harmonie des Sirenes et, d’autre part, le celebre chant de ces enchanteresses dans l’Odyssee? En examinant ces questions, Irini-Fotini Viltanioti offre, pour la premiere fois, une etude systematique de la formulation mythique de la fameuse theorie pythagoricienne dite de “l’harmonie des spheres” dans la Republique de Platon et dans le Mode de vie pythagoricien de Jamblique. En comblant un vide important dans la recherche actuelle, ce livre constitue une contribution decisive au domaine des etudes pythagoriciennes et platoniciennes.
Описание: This work examines the stages by which religious dissidents were persecuted by Tudor monarchs across the 16th century, and the means by which these dissidents counteracted authorities. During each stage of persecution, many dissidents were able to elude capture, counter-interrogate their inquisitors, use time in prison to write letters and prepare for death, and exploit their own executions to forge a final drama of suffering and redemption before a large, public audience. Enforcement was always dependent upon cooperation from the public and local officials, which made successful persecution uncertain at best. This text explores the details of this system of enforcement, and the means by which it was subverted. It also discusses larger questions concerning obedience and disobedience, tolerance and intolerance, and the dynamics of martyrdom.
Описание: Taking as a key turning point the self-fashioning of the first Roman emperor Augustus, Jennifer Finn revisits the idea of `universal history` in Polybius, Justin, and Diodorus, combined with the Stoic philosophy of determinism present in authors like Plutarch and Arrian.
