L’étoile poignardée ou Poétique de la Nécessité
Author: Dieurat Clervoyant
Publisher: African Books Collective
ISBN: 9956553409
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
Dans la conjoncture des choses observables sur l'état de la relation entre les diverses catégories ou entités sociales et internationales qui fondent les sociétés et les nations, il n'est de place, et il n'en a presque jamais eu dans toute l'Histoire, pour aucun discours, aucune pensée qui ne s'articule pas autour de la nécessité d'une combativité guerrière. Cet ouvrage, baptisé Poétique de la Nécessité, propose une vision qui fera taxer son auteur de bien d'épithètes désobligeantes ; on l'affublerait même de prêcher la résignation ou la lâcheté. Mais y a-t-il un seul modèle de pensée antagonique à l'ordre établi qui ait jamais réussi à reverser l'Ordre des relations ?

Aristotle's Concept of Chance
Author: John Dudley
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438432283
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 487
Book Description
This landmark book is the first to provide a comprehensive account of Aristotle's concept of chance. Chance is invoked by many to explain order in the universe, the origins of life, even human freedom and happiness. An understanding of Aristotle's concept of chance is indispensable for an appreciation of his views on nature and ethics, views which have had a tremendous influence on the development of Western philosophy. Author John Dudley analyzes Aristotle's account of chance in the Physics, the Metaphysics, in his biological and ethical treatises, and in a number of his other works as well. Important complementary considerations such as Aristotle's criticism of Presocratic philosophers, particularly Empedocles and Democritus, Plato's concept of chance, the chronology of Aristotle's works, and the relevance of Aristotle's work to evolution and quantum theory are also covered in depth. This is an essential book for scholars and students of Western philosophy.

Between Form and Event: Machiavelli's Theory of Political Freedom
Author: M. Vatter
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 940159337X
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 569
Book Description
Before Machiavelli, political freedom was approached as a problem of the best distribution of the functions of ruler and ruled. Machiavelli changed the terms of freedom, requiring that its discourse address the demand for no-rule or non-domination. Political freedom would then develop only through a strategy of antagonism to every form of legitimate domination. This leads to the emergence of modern political life: any institution that wishes to rule legitimately must simultaneously be inscribed with its immanent critique and imminent subversion. For Machiavelli, the possibility of instituting the political form is conditioned by the possibility of changing it in an event of political revolution. This book shows Machiavelli as a philosopher of the modern condition. For him, politics exists in the absence of those absolute moral standards that are called upon to legitimate the domination of man over man. If this understanding lies open to relativism and historicism, it does so in order to render effective the project of reinventing the sense of human freedom. Machiavelli's legacy to modernity is the recognition of an irreconcilable tension between the demands of freedom and the imperatives of morality.
