The Essential Philosophical Works - David Hume

With an introduction by Charlotte R. Brown and William Edward Morris. David Hume (1711-1776) was the most important philosopher ever to write in English, as well as a master stylist.This volume contains his major philosophical works. A Treatise of Human Nature (1739-1740), published while Hume was still in his twenties, consists of three books on the understanding, the passions, and morals. It applies the experimental method of reasoning to human nature in a revolution that was intended to make Hume the Newton of the moral sciences.Disappointed with the Treatise s failure to bring about such a revolution, Hume later recast Book I as An Enquiry concerning Human Understanding (1751), and Book III as An Enquiry concerning the Principles of Morals, which he regarded as incomparably the best of all his works. Both Enquiries went through several editions in his lifetime. Hume s works, controversial in his day, remain deeply and widely influential in ours, especially for his contributions to our understanding of the nature of morality, political and economic theory, philosophy of religion, and philosophical naturalism.This volume also includes Hume s anonymous Abstract of Books I and II of the Treatise, and the short autobiographical essay, My Own Life , which he wrote just before his death.

In Writing - Adam Phillips

Acclaimed author of On Kissing, Tickling and Being Bored and On KindnessA collection of literary essays like no other - exploring the deep connections between literature and psychoanalysis - from Britain s leading psychoanalyst.For Adam Phillips - as for Freud and many of his followers - poetry and poets have always held an essential place, as both precursors and unofficial collaborators in the psychoanalytic project. But the same has never held true in reverse. What, Phillips wonders, at the start of this deeply engaging book, has psychoanalysis meant for writers? And what can writing do for psychoanalysis?Phillips explores these questions through an exhilarating series of encounters with - and vivid readings of - writers he has loved, from Byron and Barthes to Shakespeare and Sebald. And in the process he demonstrates, through his own unique style, how literature and psychoanalysis can speak to and of each other. Adam Phillips is that rarest of phenomena, a trained clinician who is also a sublime writer - John Banville, author of The Sea Reading Phillips, you may be amused, vexed, dazzled. But the one thing you will never be is bored Observer One of those writers whom it is a pleasure simply to hear think Sunday Telegraph

Pojednání o lidské přirozenosti 3 - Morálka - David Hume

Ve třetí a závěrečné knize svého slavného Pojednání o lidské přirozenosti předkládá Hume veřejnosti morální filosofii. Hume svoji koncepci morálky zaměřuje na pojem morálního charakteru a ctnosti, přičemž přichází se zásadním rozlišením morálních ctností na ctnosti přirozené a uměle vytvořené. V nauce o sympatii z obecného hlediska Hume následně nabízí své řešení problému objektivity morálního soudu a při zpracování nauky o umělých ctnostech - spravedlnosti orientované na pojem vlastnictví, cti a občanské poslušnosti - poskytuje významný příspěvek filosofii práva a politické filosofii. Plně sekulární charakter Humovy morálky představuje i dnes jeden z nejdůležitějších milníků ve vývoji evropského etického myšlení.

A Treatise of Human Nature - David Hume

One of the most significant works of Western philosophy, Hume s Treatise was published in 1739-40, before he was thirty years old. A pinnacle of English empiricism, it is a comprehensive attempt to apply scientific methods of observation to a study of human nature, and a vigorous attack upon the principles of traditional metaphysical thought. With masterly eloquence, Hume denies the immortality of the soul and the reality of space; considers the manner in which we form concepts of identity, cause and effect; and speculates upon the nature of freedom, virtue and emotion. Opposed both to metaphysics and to rationalism, Hume s philosophy of informed scepticism sees man not as a religious creation, nor as a machine, but as a creature dominated by sentiment, passion and appetite.

War and Power - Phillips Payson O

Phillips O Brien is one of the keenest observers of modern strategy, and his new book takes a deep historical look at the evolution of warfare and its implications for conflicts like the ongoing one in Ukraine Francis Fukuyama--------------------War and power are two of the most-widely discussed issues in all of human history, and yet they are, time and again, misunderstood often disastrously so.Whilst we might think the outcome of war is determined by so-called Great Powers who dominate their opponents with their impressive size and military prowess, the reality of modern conflict, as renowned strategic historian Professor Phillips Payson O Brien demonstrates, is very different. He urges us instead to look for Full Spectrum Powers .For if we are considering how powerful a nation is and who will win a war, we need to think less about weapons, and more about the economies and societies that produce them; less about individual battles, and more about sustaining campaigns and alliances in which states operate.Using fascinating examples from the late 19th century to the present day, War and Power explains how misunderstanding war and power has led to terrible, even preventable conflicts such as the war in Ukraine and how more accurate analysis can help us consider the potential conflict between the US and China.War and Power provides a bold new way of understanding the dangerous world around us.-------------------- Phillips O Brien is always fantastic. Heterodox. He s pretty scathing, even about Biden administration policy . . . A really interesting book Paul Krugman, Distinguished Professor of Economics As Phillips O Brien points out in this important book, the character of war evolves, but some of the underlying truths, particularly from the second World War, are still very much with us.

A Brief History of the End of the F*cking World - Tom Phillips

Superb ... entertaining ...

[Phillips] fills his timeline of unfilled apocalypses with wry humour New ScientistDo you feel like we re living in the end times? Does it seem like everything is on fire, and one disaster follows another? Here s a small comfort: you re not the first to feel that way. If there s one thing that people throughout history have agreed on, it s that history wasn t going to be around for much longer.This book is about the apocalypse, and how humans have always believed it to be very f*cking nigh. Across thousands of years, we ll meet weird cults, failed prophets and mass panics, holy warriors leading revolts in anticipation of the last days, and suburbanites waiting for aliens to rescue them from a doomed Earth. We ll journey back to the worst period to be alive , as the world reeled from a simultaneous pandemic and climate crisis. And we ll look to the future to ask the unnerving question: how might it all end?But it s also a book about how we live in a world where catastrophe is always looming - whether it s a madman with a nuclear button or the slow burn of environmental collapse. Because when we talk about the end of the world, what we really mean is the end of our world. Our obsession with doomsday is really about change: our fear of it, and our desire for it, and how - ultimately - we can find hope in it.Praise for the Brief History series: Uproarious . . .

Biskupovo tajomstvo - Fergus Hume

Bohabojnú komunitu pokojného katedrálneho mestečka Beomister mimoriadne rozruší zákerná vražda neznámeho tuláka. Všetci obyvatelia zápalisto diskutujú o brutálnom čine, ktorého motív nikto nechápe. Polícia bezradne tápe a vynárajú sa najrozličnejšie teórie o možnom páchateľovi. Zákerný kaplán Michael Calgrim dokonca podozrieva svojho nadriadeného, láskavého biskupa Gabriela Pendlea. Typickú malomestskú spoločnosť viktoriánskeho Anglicka zachvacuje čoraz dusivejšie poznanie, že zločin sa zrejme nikdy nepodarí vyriešiť. Čoskoro sa však v Beomisteri objaví súkromný vyšetrovateľ Ben Baltic, ktorý sám seba označuje za náboženského detektíva. Podarí sa tomuto bývalému kresťanskému misionárovi očistiť biskupovo meno a odhaliť skutočného vraha? Fergus Hume (1859 - 1932) bol nesmierne plodný anglický prozaik tajomných príbehov s kriminálnou zápletkou, ktorý nadviazal na tvorbu priekopníka detektívneho žánru, francúzskeho spisovateľa Émile Gaboriaua (1832 - 1873). Fergus Hume patril vo viktoriánskom Anglicku medzi najpredávanejších autorov a svojím dielom inšpiroval sira Arthura Conana Doyla (1859 - 1930) k vytvoreniu najslávnejšieho literárneho detektíva Sherlocka Holmesa.

Dialogy o přirozenosti náboženství - David Hume

Dialogy o přirozeném náboženství jsou Humeovým nejdůležitějším příspěvkem k filozofii náboženství a jedním z klíčových novověkých textů tohoto oboru. Tématem knihy jsou teze tzv. přirozeného náboženství, které tvoří doplněk principů a pouček zjeveného náboženství. Bádání v rámci přirozeného náboženství si klade za cíl odpovědět na otázku, co můžeme zjistit o existenci Boha a o jeho atributech čistě pomocí rozumové úvahy a smyslové evidence. Toto bádání není založeno na tvrzeních Bible či jiných posvátných textů a nebere v potaz svědectví o zjeveních, zázracích či jakýchkoli jiných nadpřirozených jevech. V rozhovorech tří vzdělaných přátel Hume zkoumá základy náboženské víry a míru jejího racionálního opodstatnění. Rozvíjí kritiku některých tradičních argumentů pro Boží existenci, zejména tzv. teleologického argumentu, jehož podrobný rozbor zabírá velkou část textu. Jeho cílem však nebylo popřít, že Bůh existuje - nebyl ateista v současném slova smyslu. Chtěl jen ukázat, že o Božích vlastnostech a způsobu jeho zasahování do světa nemůžeme s jistotou říci téměř vůbec nic. Hume se v díle dotýká i dalších důležitých témat tradičně probíraných v rámci filozofie náboženství, například problému přítomnosti zla ve světě. Pro svou důmyslnou kompozici dílo dodnes zůstává interpretační výzvou pro laické čtenáře i specializované badatele.

An Enquiry concerning Human Understanding - David Hume

Commit it then to the flames: for it can contain nothing but sophistry and illusion. Thus ends David Hume s Enquiry concerning Human Understanding, the definitive statement of the greatest philosopher in the English language. His arguments in support of reasoning from experience, and against the sophistry and illusion of religiously inspired philosophical fantasies, caused controversy in the eighteenth century and are strikingly relevant today, when faith and science continue to clash.The Enquiry considers the origin and processes of human thought, reaching the stark conclusion that we can have no ultimate understanding of the physical world, or indeed our own minds. In either sphere we must depend on instinctive learning from experience, recognizing our animal nature and the limits of reason.

Letter from New York - Helene Hanff

Manderley Press is delighted to announce the publication of a brand-new edition of Helene Hanff s Letter from New York - another literary jewel from the author of 84, Charing Cross Road. To showcase this wonderful book, we commissioned the New York Times bestselling author Jean Hanff Korelitz (The Plot) to pen a new introduction - she is a cousin of Helene Hanff s, and was inspired to become a writer after meeting her as a teenager. The front cover was specially designed by New Yorker illustrator Bruce Eric Kaplan, also a fan of the author and a resident of New York City too. Over several years, Helene Hanff read aloud these stories of her life in New York for BBC Radio 4 s Woman s Hour. This book is a collection of selected scripts from this series, composed with a British audience in mind, in which the author offers us a glimpse into her own everyday tales of the city. Written in her trademark whimsical and upbeat style, Helene Hanff transports us right to the heart of Manhattan in the 1980s, describing her favourite places, people and pets with gentle humour, and introducing the reader to the ups and downs of life in a high-rise apartment building in New York City ( the last small town in America ). We are introduced to Bentley, the Old English Sheepdog belonging to a neighbour who captured the author s heart; we take a stroll through the beautiful Shakespeare s Garden in Central Park; and we join the author to enjoy annual city parades down Fifth Avenue - especially the St Patrick s Day parade, when the whole of New York turned green. And we meet Helene s friends: Arlene, whose glamorous social life - and wardrobe - puts Hanff s tiny apartment and simple writer s life into perspective, and Nina, whose garden on the sixteenth-floor overflows with flowers and fruit trees. Finally, we accompany the author as she travels to London to celebrate the opening night of the dramatisation of her best-selling book 84, Charing Cross Road. What started out as a six-month trial in 1978 eventually turned into a six-year project, during which time Helene Hanff captivated radio audiences with her monthly broadcasts - each one a love letter to her beloved NYC. Long before the cast of Friends - and Sarah Jessica Parker s iconic evocation of life in the city - recreated a New York existence for us to experience vicariously, these 5-minute vignettes were the perfect way for native New Yorkers and international readers alike, to revel in the quotidian as well as the glamour of city life, and to discover the unexpected hidden gems - and treasured traditions - of New York City. Letter from New York is still a delight to read, 40 years after it was first written - a timeless and beguiling tale of everyday life in this great city, by one of the best-loved authors of the 20th-century.

On Giving Up - Adam Phillips

A wise, generous book Washington PostFrom acclaimed psychoanalyst Adam Phillips, a meditation on what we must give up to feel more alive. To give up or not to give up?The question can feel inescapable but the answer is never simple. Giving up our supposed vices is one thing; giving up on life itself is quite another. One form of self-sacrifice feels positive, something to admire and aspire to, while the other is profoundly unsettling, if not actively undesirable. There are always, it turns out, both good and bad sacrifices, but it is not always clear beforehand which is which. We give something up because we believe we can no longer go on as we are. In this sense, giving up is a critical moment - an attempt to make a different future. In On Giving Up, acclaimed psychoanalyst Adam Phillips illuminates both the gaps and the connections between the many ways of giving up, and helps us to address the central question: what must we give up in order to feel more alive?

Battleground - Phillips Christopher

The essential guide to geopolitics in the modern Middle East  The Middle East is in crisis. The shocking events of the war in Gaza have rocked the entire region. More than a decade ago, the Arab Spring had raised hopes of a new beginning but instead ushered in a series of civil wars, coups, and even harsher autocracies. Tensions were exacerbated by the meddling of outsiders, as regional and global powers sought to further their interests. The United States, for so long the dominant actor, had stepped back, leaving a vacuum behind it to be fought over.  Christopher Phillips explores geopolitical rivalries in the region, and the major external powers vying for influence: Russia, China, the EU, and the US. Moving through ten key flashpoints, from Syria to Palestine, Phillips argues that the United States⠙ overextension after the Cold War, and retreat in the 2010s, has imbalanced the region. Today, the Middle East remains blighted by conflicts of unprecedented violence and a post-American scramble for power ⠓ leaving its fate in the balance.

Second Chances - Stephen Greenblatt, Adam Phillips

A powerful exploration of the human capacity for renewal, as seen through Shakespeare and Freud  ⠜A compellingly readable and intelligent book. . . . Both authors write with impressive energy.⠝⠔Rowan Williams, New Statesman  In this fresh investigation, Stephen Greenblatt and Adam Phillips explore how the second chance has been an essential feature of the literary imagination and a promise so central to our existence that we try to reproduce it again and again. Innumerable stories, from the Homeric epics to the New Testament, and from Oedipus Rex to Hamlet, explore the realization or failure of second chances⠔outcomes that depend on accident, acts of will, or fate. Such stories let us repeatedly rehearse the experience of loss and recovery: to know the joy that comes with a renewal of love and pleasure and to face the pain that comes with realizing that some damage can never be undone.  Through a series of illuminating readings, the authors show how Shakespeare was the supreme virtuoso of the second chance and Freud was its supreme interpreter. Both Shakespeare and Freud believed that we can narrate our life stories as tales of transformation, of momentous shifts, constrained by time and place but often still possible. Ranging from The Comedy of Errors to The Winter⠙s Tale, and from D. W. Winnicott to Marcel Proust, the authors challenge readers to imagine how, as Phillips writes, ⠜it is the mending that matters.⠝

Invisible Jesus - Scot McKnight, Tommy Preson Phillips

Is Deconstruction A Rebellion Against God or a Prophetic Movement Resisting a Distorted Gospel? In recent years, we ve seen an increase in the number of Christians who are deconstructing their faith—critically analyzing Christianity and the church and finding that it falls short. Many end up leaving behind the beliefs and commitments they formerly held. While many have written on how to reverse this trend, Scot McKnight and Tommy Preson Phillips believe that deconstruction isn’t a problem but a voice…And we need to listen to what it is saying to the church.Deconstructors are uncovering serious weaknesses in today s church—a renewed fundamentalism, toxic leadership, and legalistic thinking among them. Utilizing the results of recent studies by Pew, Gallup, and others, McKnight and Phillips take a careful look at what deconstructors are really saying, seeking to better understand why many are shedding elements of the faith and church of their youth but also engaging in a reconstruction process, finding Jesus afresh. They are losing their religion, but not losing Jesus.Filled with stories of those who have walked the path of deconstruction without losing their faith, Invisible Jesus is a prophetic call to examine ourselves and discern if the faith we practice and the church we belong to is really representative of the Jesus we follow. Each chapter looks at a different topic and offers biblical reflections that call for us to not only better listen, but to change how we live out our faith as followers of Jesus today.

Windrush - Mike Phillips, Trevor Phillips

The oral history of Britainâ ™s first West Indian immigrants and their descendantsIn 1948 the former troop ship Windrush made the 30-day journey across the Atlantic from Jamaica. The arrival of its 500 passengers, the first generation of Caribbean migrants in the UK, was the initial step in the formation of a new identity: the black Briton.Fifty years later, Mike and Trevor Phillips spoke to those on the Windrush itself, as well as those who followed, to tell the story of Britain in the second half of the twentieth century through the eyes of the outsiders who became insiders.Now updated to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the shipâ ™s voyage and including reflections on its political and cultural legacy in 2023, Windrush is an essential record of this transformative era in British social history.

[Phillips and Elledge] pair the abundant good humour of this book with a warning about the corrosive effects of conspiracy theories The TimesFrom the Satanic Panic to the anti-vaxx movement, the moon landing to Pizzagate, it s always been human nature to believe we re being lied to by the powers that be (and sometimes, to be fair, we absolutely are).But while it can be fun to indulge in a bit of Deep State banter on the group chat, recent times have shown us that some of these theories have taken on a life of their own - and in our dogged quest for the truth, it appears we might actually be doing it some damage.In Conspiracy, Tom Phillips and Jonn Elledge take us on a fascinating, insightful and often hilarious journey through conspiracy theories old and new, to try and answer a vital question for our times: how can we learn to log off the QAnon message boards, and start trusting hard evidence again?Praise for the Brief History series: Witty, entertaining and slightly distressing...

A Humument - Tom Phillips

The final edition of the late Tom Phillipsâ ™s â ˜defining masterpiece of postmodernismâ ™. In 1966 the artist Tom Phillips discovered A Human Document (1892), an obscure Victorian romance by W.H. Mallock, and set himself the task of altering every page, by painting, collage or cut-up techniques, to create an entirely new version. Some of Mallockâ ™s original text remains intact and through the illustrated pages the character of Bill Toge, Phillipsâ ™s anti-hero, and his romantic plight emerges. First published in 1973, A Humument â “ as Phillips titled his altered book â “ quickly established itself as a cult classic. From that point, the artist worked towards a complete revision of his original, adding new pages in successive editions. That process is now finished. This final edition presents an entirely new and complete version of A Humument. It includes a revised Introduction by the late artist, in which he reflects on the 50-year project, and 92 new illustrated pages.

In a career that has so far spanned more than 30 years, he has recieved awards and acclaim at every turn. But before his stand-out career in the US, Sean did some of his earliest work for 2000 AD - The Galaxy s Greatest Comic and its sister publication the Judge Dredd Megazine. He co-created fan-favourite characters Devlin Waugh and Armitage as well as drawing for classic strips Judge Dredd and Sinister/Dexter. This collection forms a retrospective of Phillips work for 2000 AD and shows how his art evolved from the fully painted work and collage of the early 1990s, to the familiar style he employs on hit books today.

Monogamy - Adam Phillips

A couple is a conspiracy in search of a crime. Sex is often the closest they can get. All the present controversies about the family are really discussions about monogamy. About what keeps people together and why they should stay together. Now, in a book of 121 aphorisms, Adam Phillips asks why we all believe in monogamy, and why we find it so difficult to think about. Everyone knows that most people, however much they may love their partner, are capable of loving and desiring more than one person at a time. It may be reassuring, but it is in fact very demanding -- and often cruel -- to assume that only one person can give us what we want. At least in sexual matters, sharing seems to go deeply against the grain. Monogamy is so much taken for granted as the foundation of the family and of family values that, as with anything that seems essential, we are very wary of being critical of it. But, as Adam Phillips suggests, it is surely worth wondering why the faithful couple has such a hold on our imagination, and how it has come to be such an ideal.

love lay down beside me and we wept - Helen Murray Taylor

love lay down beside me and we wept is Helen Murray Taylor’s lyrical memoir of devastating mental illness. Helen Murray Taylor was finding her feet as a young doctor and trying to maintain some semblance of a life in the shadow of a punishing schedule when she witnessed a horrific road traffic accident. The impact of this fatal collision caught Helen off guard and had terrible repercussions. Both her career and her mental health took a battering. After a succession of other distressing events left Helen emotionally shattered and seriously depressed, she was admitted to a psychiatric ward and sectioned under the Mental Health Act. At her lowest, she almost succeeded in taking her own life. love lay down beside me and we wept sprang from these difficult times, from Helen’s months on the ward and the psychological upheaval of being restrained against her will, and from the challenge of being a doctor turned patient, but also from the moments of pure comedy and unexpected comradeship that she encountered there. This is a profoundly moving and masterful account of one woman s physical and psychological breakdown, it s a tribute to the love that supported her through it, and it s an offering to the reader who might find comfort or understanding in this story.
