The way we experience, investigate and interact with reality changes drastically in the course of history. Do such changes occur gradually, or can we pinpoint radical turns, besides periods of relative stability? Building on Oswald Spengler, we zoom in on three styles in particular, namely Apollonian, Magian and Faustian thinking, guided by grounding ideas which can be summarised as follows: "Act in accordance with nature", "Prepare yourself for the imminent dawn" and "Existence equals will to power". Finally, we reach the present. How to characterise the new era we entered around the year 2000?
Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling is widely regarded as one of the most difficult and influential of German philosophers. In this book, S. J. McGrath not only makes Schelling's ideas accessible to a general audience, he uncovers the romantic philosopher's seminal role as the creator of a concept which shaped and defined late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century psychology: the concept of the unconscious. McGrath shows how the unconscious originally functioned in Schelling's philosophy as a bridge between nature and spirit. Before Freud revised the concept to fit his psychopathology, the unconscious was understood largely along Schellingian lines as primarily a source of creative power. S...
This collection of poetic, philosophical, and literary texts and full-color images offers an ATLAS of the Poetic Continent, a treasure to study, contemplate, and inspire action in the world. This ATLAS grew from of a social-sculpture process in a city that invited its citizens--individually and collectively--to enter a process of active reflection on this question: What am I doing in the world? This project confirmed that the connection between inner and outer work, and the inner work space, is central to all social-sculpture processes. The maps for this poetic continent open up pathways that enable us to come to our senses. Discovered only in our engagement with the world, and inspired by the constellations of the soul, they offer distilled understandings on the path to a new society: a viable future of free, humane, and ecological citizens.
In this book, Professor Simuț shows how Christian theology started to be understood as a Gnostic philosophy of religion in the thought of the 19th-century scholar F. C. Baur. Although Baur was seen traditionally as a theologian and biblical exegete, Simuț argues that he was in fact a philosopher of religion, and it was his philosophical reading of Christian theology that informed his biblical preoccupations. Specifically, Baur’s perspective on Christian theology was heavily influenced by Jakob Böhme’s esoteric theosophy and Hegel’s religious philosophy in some key issues such as creation, Lucifer, dualism and the connection between spirit and matter coupled with that between philosophy and religion.

Fritz-Julius Lemp's tragic sinking of the Athenia in a Second U-Boat Flotilla boat opened Germany's U-boat war against England. The following six years of bitter combat found the flotilla at the forefront of distant operations. Leading the attack, Legendary commanders such as Albrecht Achilles, Werner Hartenstein and Reinhard Hardegen littered the Atlantic and Indian Oceans with the twisted steel of sunken ships. Drawn extensively from various war diaries and veterans' personal reminiscences, the Second U-Boat Flotilla describes the tumultuous fortunes of the most successful unit of Karl Donitz's Grey Wolves.

Wissenschaft hat sich in der Moderne von der Philosophie und insofern auch von Weisheit losgelöst. "Weisheit und Wissenschaft" zielt auf ihre Versöhnung und unter diesem Titel sind Gespräche von Forscherinnen und Forschern aus der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft mit Philosophinnen und Philosophen versammelt. So macht uns etwa der Klimawandel im Anthropozän klar, dass Wissen ohne Weisheit kein gutes Leben auf unserem Planeten garantieren kann. Im zweiten Teil des Buches beleuchten Vorträge aus verschiedenen Perspektiven weitere Facetten der Weisheit. So gewinnt dieser einst so zentrale Begriff wieder Respekt und Raum.
