The Radical Machiavelli
In The Radical Machiavelli: Politics, Philosophy and Language, some of the finest Machiavellian scholars explore the Florentine’s thought five hundred years after the composition of his masterpiece, The Prince. Their analysis, however, goes past The Prince, extending to Machiavelli’s entire corpus and shining new light on his political, historical, and military works, with a special focus on their heritage in modern Marxist thought, the arena in which they reverberate most profoundly and originally. Rather than a neutral, comprehensive, and safe interpretation, this book offers a partial and even partisan reading of Machiavelli, the 16th-century thinker who continues to divide scholars a...
12,000 BC
Professor Jerry Kroth?s book 12,000 BC: Two Extinction-Level Events We Know Nothing About explores the often-popularized ancient-apocalypse narratives so frequently depicted on Netflix and YouTube. Kroth?s approach, however, is systematic in that it examines the science behind these controversies without tiptoeing into fringe or conspiracy literature to establish its credentials. For example, mainstream archeology alleges the ice age came to its conclusion in a gradual manner while the spread of Homo sapiens throughout the world resulted in the extinction of 35 species of megafauna, mainly as a result of humans hunting down large animals. Wooly Mammoths, Mastodons, Giant Sloths, and others w...

Naples
In recent years, Naples has been the subject of countless books, films and TV series, making it even more difficult to imagine a Neapolitan normality, if it exists at all. As Naples becomes the most filmed city in Italy, where to look for the ordinary, the average? Maybe we need to "go up" to Vomero, a neighborhood considered almost alien to the city, middle class, homogeneous, peaceful? A reality in sharp contrast with the over-the-top life of the historic centre, crossed as it is by a thousand stratifications - architectural, historical and social. And yet even there we find an alternative reading: the city as a model of coexistence between ancient and modern. While some areas have been wa...

Molti conoscono il Giappone delle città scintillanti, del sushi e dei manga.

Lo reversible y lo irreversible
Somos mortales y nuestro tiempo se despliega sólo según la irreversibilidad de su orden. Y, sin embargo, el significado de nuestra existencia no puede interpretarse únicamente sobre la base de esta irreversibilidad biológica. En ella, y no contra ella, nos enfrentamos constantemente a la reversibilidad de nuestras situaciones de existencia, tan imprevistas como decisivas para nosotros. Tomar en serio esta reversibilidad es no conformarse ya con el privilegio que la filosofía reconoce en la tragedia, en tanto que lo trágico presupone lo irreversible. Prestar atención a la reversibilidad significa defender otro modelo de interpretación de nuestras vidas: el de la tragicomedia y la iron...
Sobre el colorido de la vida y la fenomenología de lo inefable
Este libro presenta los textos de una de las investigaciones fenomenológicas más originales que se han desarrollado en nuestra lengua: la investigación del colorido o la estampa de la vida, iniciada hace más de dos décadas por Antonio Zirión Quijano. A pesar del tiempo transcurrido, su autor presenta todavía hoy estos textos más como la introducción a una obra por venir —acerca de la fenomenología de la vida en concreción— que como la compilación de unos resultados definitivos. La voluntad de atrapar el elusivo fenómeno del colorido de la vida se vio obligada a cambiar el rumbo a medio camino, pero ha podido alcanzar, en una peculiar fenomenología del lenguaje, la constatac...
