This volume comprises the lecture course that Heidegger gave in 1941 on the metaphysics of German Idealism. The first part of the lecture course contains a preliminary consideration of the distinction between ground and existence. The elucidation of the conceptual history includes a striking confrontation with Kierkegaard⠙s and Jaspers⠙ concepts of existence, as well as an elucidation of the concept of existence in Being and Time, which Heidegger distinguishes from the former concepts. Heidegger⠙s self-interpretation is not an end in itself, however, but rather a way of pointing to Schelling⠙s distinction between ground and existence, whose root and inner necessity and whose various versions Heidegger discusses subsequently. The second part of the lecture course is focused on Schelling⠙s ⠜freedom treatise,⠝ which Heidegger regards as the pinnacle of the metaphysics of German Idealism. Heidegger⠙s consideration of Schelling⠙s distinction between ground and existence finds its guiding thread in the introduction of the realms of being ⠓ eternal or finite, each being is a joining of the ground of existence and existence itself. In a subsequent overview, Heidegger discusses the relation of the distinction between ground and existence to the essence of human freedom and to the essence of the human. On the basis of this discussion, it becomes possible to grasp the connection between freedom and evil in Schelling⠙s system. This important work by Heidegger, published here in English for the first time, will be of great interest to students and scholars of philosophy and to anyone interested in Heidegger⠙s work.

This book is for university students, with at least a mid-intermediate level of English.It is designed both for self-study and also as a support for a course on academic communication. It can thus be used alongside the companion volumes: Writing an Academic Paper in English and Giving an Academic Presentation in English.The book focuses only on those areas that are either the most commonly found in academic communication and/or cause the most problems. It is thus considerably more accessible than a traditional grammar or style guide.Grammar coverage includes: articles (a/an, the), countable vs uncountable nouns, modal verbs (can, may, could, might), comparisons, present and past tenses, link words, prepositions, and verbs that cause grammatical difficulties.There is a strong focus on those elements that make a paper more readable, and a presentation more accessible and memorable: clarity and empathy, sentence length, word order, and punctuation.There are chapters on two key areas of communication in academia: writing emails to editors, drafting a CV/resume.The book is laid out simply, with short explanations, and lots of example sentences (plus typical mistakes).Other books in the series:Writing an Academic Paper in English Giving an Academic Presentation in English Adrian Wallwork is the author of more than 40 ELT and EAP textbooks.

My Family and Other Animals is the bewitching account of a rare and magical childhood on the island of Corfu by treasured British conservationist Gerald Durrell, beautifully repackaged as part of the Penguin Essentials range. What we all need, said Larry, is sunshine...a country where we can grow. Yes, dear, that would be nice, agreed Mother, not really listening. I had a letter from George this morning - he says Corfu s wonderful. Why don t we pack up and go to Greece? Very well, dear, if you like, said Mother unguardedly.Escaping the ills of the British climate, the Durrell family - acne-ridden Margo, gun-toting Leslie, bookworm Lawrence and budding naturalist Gerry, along with their long-suffering mother and Roger the dog - take off for the island of Corfu.But the Durrells find that, reluctantly, they must share their various villas with a menagerie of local fauna - among them scorpions, geckos, toads, bats and butterflies.Recounted with immense humour and charm My Family and Other Animals is a wonderful account of a rare, magical childhood. Durrell has an uncanny knack of discovering human as well as animal eccentricities Sunday Telegraph A bewitching book Sunday TimesGerald Durrell was born in Jamshedpur, India, in 1925. He returned to England in 1928 before settling on the island of Corfu with his family. In 1945 he joined the staff of Whipsnade Park as a student keeper, and in 1947 he led his first animal-collecting expedition to the Cameroons. He later undertook numerous further expeditions, visiting Paraguay, Argentina, Sierra Leone, Mexico, Mauritius, Assam and Madagascar. His first television programme, Two in the Bush which documented his travels to New Zealand, Australia and Malaya was made in 1962; he went on to make seventy programmes about his trips around the world. In 1959 he founded the Jersey Zoological Park, and in 1964 he founded the Jersey Wildlife Preservation Trust. He was awarded the OBE in 1982. Encouraged to write about his life s work by his brother, Durrell published his first book, The Overloaded Ark, in 1953. It soon became a bestseller and he went on to write thirty-six other titles, including My Family and Other Animals, The Bafut Beagles, Encounters with Animals, The Drunken Forest, A Zoo in My Luggage, The Whispering Land, Menagerie Manor, The Amateur Naturalist and The Aye-Aye and I. Gerald Durrell died in 1995.

The most exhilarating surge of language, style and sordid English manners [in] literature. DBC Pierre A wild, passionate, brilliantly gaudy and flamboyant extravaganza ... Richly obscene, energetically morbid, very often very funny ... Above all, stylistically and verbally inventive. ObserverDeath Gregory has disappeared, abandoning his diaries in a seedy London hotel. Discovered by Lawrence Lucifer, they depict a clique of intellectuals living a life of squalid debauchery: struggling writers and artists consumed by loves, lusts, and a quest for innovation. But as they satisfy violent appetites of the flesh - and mind - their descent into darkness accelerates ... Written when he was only 24, Lawrence Durrell described his controversial third novel as a two-fisted attack on literature by an angry young man of the thirties in which he first heard the sound of my own voice. First published in Paris in 1938, it was banned in Britain for nearly four decades due to its obscenity (influenced by Durrell s friend Henry Miller). Vivid, surrealist, and haunting, The Black Book peers into the recesses of our souls: and establishes Durrell as a trailblazing stylist. Stygian prose ... Words like stones, throwing, rockerying, mossing, churning, sharpening, bloodsucking, melting, and a hard firewater flows and rolls through them. Dylan Thomas Genuine art ... Lavishly displays Durrell s gift of language ... Verbal brilliance. New York Times The first piece of work by a new English writer to give me any hope for the future of prose fiction. T.S. Eliot Durrell s first major work ... Its showy brilliance is certainly that of a born writer ... Savage and obscene. Guardian Brilliantly strange ... It will astonish. Independent on Sunday

Trams, palm trees and watermelon stalls lie honey-bathed in sunlight; in darkened bedrooms, sweaty lovers unfurl. But in a world trembling on the brink of the Second World War, passion and death are inextricable. When Darley, a penniless schoolteacher, begins an affair with Justine - a married Egyptian woman of unparalleled glamour - their partners, Melissa and Nessim, are sucked into a whirlpool of jealousy and violence. One of the twentieth-century s greatest romances, Lawrence Durrell s scandalous investigation of modern love set the world alight in 1957. Rich in political and sexual intrigue, his epic masterpiece burns just as brightly today. Introduced by Jan Morris, this oomnibus edition collects all four novels together in all their glory.What Readers Are Saying - Justine (Book 1): Sometimes you discover a new author and know you⠙re going to be friends for life ... One of the most beautiful books I⠙ve ever read. I absolutely adored this book ... I felt sucked into it with an amazing force by the beauty of the words ... The backdrop of 1930s Egypt s literary circles and bohemian relationships is mesmerising ... Breathtaking. Shimmering and dreamlike ... One of the most beautifully written books I⠙ve read ... All of life is here; can⠙t wait for the next one. Lush, brutal, beautiful ... Durrell captured a place and time that will never exist again. What makes this novel truly spectacular is the language, the episodic jumps in time, the lush lyricism, and how Durrell so deftly manages to tie this all into both the city of Alexandria and the themes of passion, love, and jealousy.

Audiokniha: Kdyby Durrell dorazil včas, možná by blboun nejapný nevymřel. Vtipná i poučná kniha o velké výpravě za záchranou ohrožených druhů ptáků a plazů na ostrově Mauricius v Indickém oceánu. Když Portugalci objevili v Indickém oceánu souostroví později nazvané Maskarény, nastala pro místní endemickou faunu a flóru skutečná pohroma. Bylo vyhubeno mnoho druhů, kromě jiného padl za oběť hladovým námořníkům v druhé polovině 17. století i pták dodo. Takřka o tři století později se na Mauricius, jeden z maskarénských ostrovů, vypravil spisovatel a zachránce ohrožených přírodních druhů Gerald Durrell. A ptáka dodo čili blbouna nejapného vetkl do znaku zoologické zahrady, kterou později založil na ostrově Jersey a jež se snažila uchovat zvířata ohrožená vyhynutím. Durrell podnikl na ostrov několik výprav, aby zachránil alespoň jiné ohrožené druhy, například mauricijskou poštolku, ještěrku Guentherovu nebo zlaté netopýry a růžové holuby. O své zážitky se pak dělil se čtenáři. Není mnoho lidí, kteří by tak zábavným a okouzlujícím způsobem vyjádřili lásku k přírodě a ke zvířatům.
