Nei momenti di crisi e trasformazione come quello che stiamo vivendo, la filosofia può aiutarci a rispondere alle domande più urgenti. Dobbiamo solo interrogarla. È ciò che fanno i filosofi e scrittori Andrea Colamedici e Maura Gancitano: mettendo in comunicazione il nostro presente con l'Atene del V secolo a.C., interrogano i pensatori dell'età classica, ma non solo, sui temi del dibattito contemporaneo.

Von den ersten und letzten Dingen: Das erste Hauptstück des ersten Bandes von Nietzsches philosophischer Schrift "Menschliches, Allzumenschliches".

Die Fröhliche Wissenschaft stellt, auch in der zeitlichen Umrahmung des Zarathustra, mit den Ausgaben von 1882 und 1887 ein Schlüsselwerk in der Reihe der Schriften Nietzsches dar. Es gibt die Zeit eines zu-sich-Kommens, einer Gesundung wieder, die auch im Untertitel la gaya scienza, als Verweis auf das romanische Erlebnis zum Ausdruck kommt: In der 1887 hinzugefügten Vorrede zur zweiten Ausgabe betont Nietzsche die Teilnahme der ganzen Person in der Philosophie.

In a time of accelerating crises and collapsing certainties, philosophy can no longer remain the distant pursuit of abstract speculation. It must become a way of orientation—a compass for living in a world of complexity, contradiction, and change. This book invites the listener into an integral vision of thought: a philosophy that does not impose dogma but weaves together insights from diverse traditions, sciences, and lived experiences. It shows how no single system contains the whole, yet each carries a fragment of truth waiting to be brought into relation.

El dinero es uno de los pilares de la sociedad tal y como la conocemos. Todos lo utilizamos cotidianamente sin que su empleo presuponga ningún conocimiento específico en materia económica; y sin embargo, para entender qué es el dinero y cómo funciona es preciso recurrir a la filosofía, más aún cuando las crisis y las transformaciones históricas que estamos viviendo imponen una reflexión profunda sobre su papel en el mundo contemporáneo.

È da un inciampo che il filosofo Maurizio Ferraris parte per ragionare attorno all’esistenza, alla stratificazione di esperienze e memorie che sono il modo in cui ciascuno di noi impara a vivere. Vivere, sopravvivere, previvere, convivere sono le stazioni attraverso cui questo libro ci fa passare per riflettere su un mélange di argomenti che ruotano attorno alla vita e a come si possa imparare a vivere. Se lo spunto è una battuta d’arresto accidentale, capillare, profonda e non casuale è la considerazione della propria intera esistenza, della piega che ha preso nel tempo.

Ever wondered what would happen if someone explained existentialism without the pretentious jargon, cigarette smoke, and unbearable French ennui? Wonder no more! Existence Is Pointless (And So Is This Book) delivers all the existential dread with none of the academic torture.

The Limit of Complexity is a philosophical investigation into one of the defining conditions of the contemporary world: the moment when complexity, once a source of power and progress, begins to turn against the systems that generate it. Moving across natural systems, economics, technology, politics, ethics, and human cognition, Boris Kriger examines how accumulation, interconnection, and scale quietly transform coherence into fragility. This book does not oppose complexity, nor does it idealize simplicity.

The study of ancient Greek history has been central to the western conception of history since the Renaissance. The Muse of History traces the shifting patterns of this preoccupation in the last three centuries, in which each generation has reinterpreted the Greeks in the light of their contemporary world, through times of revolution, conflicting ideologies and warfare. It aims to offer a new history of Greek historiography from the Enlightenment to the present, and to acknowledge the continuing spiritual importance of the ancient Greeks for European culture.

Intellect is not a possession but a force—fluid, expansive, untamed. It cannot be hoarded, nor can it be caged within doctrine or tradition. In Intellect, Ralph Waldo Emerson urges us to see thought as a living current, not a stagnant pool. True understanding, he suggests, is not about collecting knowledge but about breaking through to deeper insight, where intuition leads and logic follows.

Do you feel the Great Numbness? It’s that subtle, high-frequency vibration you experience every time you pick up your phone. It’s the sensation of the world becoming "thinner." Decisions are easier. Answers are instant. Your needs are met before you even have the energy to voice them. The Technoligarchs call this "Seamlessness." They market it as the ultimate liberation from the friction of being human. But Bernd Riemann’s forensic audit reveals a much darker reality: That "Seamlessness" is actually the sound of a surgical blade. In The Surrogate Gate, Riemann exposes the invisible ...

Prudence is not timidity. It is not caution for its own sake. It is the art of knowing when to act and when to wait, when to follow reason and when to trust instinct. In Prudence, Ralph Waldo Emerson reclaims this often-misunderstood virtue, not as mere carefulness but as the wisdom of navigating life with both vision and restraint. For Emerson, prudence is not the enemy of boldness but its quiet architect. It does not stifle ambition but shapes it, guiding passion with clarity and purpose. A mind without prudence rushes blindly; a mind ruled by it never moves at all.

Anatomy of Stupidity is a bold exploration of one of humanity’s most enduring mysteries: why do people persist in foolishness, even in the face of clear evidence?

In this book, we respond to that question by reclaiming the truth of our identity as Evolution in Person—not as a contrivance or social construction but rather rooted in the best integration of the great interior and exterior sciences. We are not separate selves, but Unique Selves—irreducibly unique expressions of the LoveIntelligence and LoveBeauty that is the initiating and animating Eros of Cosmos, living in us, as us, and through us. An essential part of reclaiming our larger identity is the question of gender identity.
