Meta-anthropology of the history of the 21st century. The author sets out his philosophical perspective on the causes and aftermath of the war in Ukraine through the prism of the meta-anthropology of history, drawing on the biblical parable of David and Goliath to clarify the dichotomy between the new humanism and neo-totalitarianism. The new humanism is not just an ideology or a practice of sympathy for the afflicted, especially in war, but is expressed in an effective and wise understanding of the Other that prevents death and destruction. Most importantly, the new humanism must actually prevent and stop crimes against ... |

Unless travellers know exactly where they are going and what they are seeking, these landmarks of ... |

A key figure in the international avant-garde, Piet Mondrian (1872 - 1944) was at once an extraordinary painter and leading art theoretician whose influence resonates to this day. Coining the term "Neo-plasticism", he pursued a style of painting composed only of primary colors against a grid of black vertical and horizontal lines and a white base background. Mondrian's vision was that this essential painting would help to achieve a society in which art as such has no place, but rather exists for the total realization of "beauty". With stints in Amsterdam, Paris, London, and New York, Mondrian drew ... |

This is a collection of stories about our fathers who, although physically gone, are nevertheless always present. These poetic essays deliver a book about life, death, and loss; about happiness, which is always intimately personal; about life’s fundamental lessons and the communication between generations. Besides drawing a dispersed but convincing portrait of life from the years of World War II through the Cold War era to the beginning of the twenty-first century, the stories included in the anthology are also of great literary quality and artistic value. And though they offer elements of history and national psychology, ... |

Идеята за история на идеите принадлежи на американския философ и историк Артър Лавджой (Arthur Lovejoy, 1873 - 1962).

From the beginning of human history, individuals across cultures and belief systems have looked to the sky for meaning. The movement of celestial bodies and their relation to our human lives has been the central tenant of astrology for thousands of years. The practice has both inspired reverence and worship, and deepened our understanding of ourselves and the world around us. While modern-day horoscopes may be the most familiar form of astrological knowledge, their lineage reaches back to ancient Mesopotamia. As author Andrea Richards recounts in Astrology, the second volume in Taschen's Library of Esoterica ... |
