Softcover. Etat : Good. Here, in Klima's own powerful words, is the motivation behind his writing - the necessity to bear witness to his country's turbulent history. In the title essay of this collection of essays, Klima invokes the spirit of the city that has shaped and sustained him: ironical, cultural, accustomed to adversity but full of hope. A city which has spawned and inspired Milan Kundera, Josef Skvorecky and Pavel Kohut.Other essays deal with his childhood experience in a concentration camp, thoughts about literature and memory, and the nature and importance of honesty and hope. A penetrating interview by Philip Roth and a study of Franz Kafka, compassionate and illuminating, are also included.

Softcover. Etat : Good. Of all the Western imperialists and their harsh colonial governments, none was as terrifying as King Leopold II of Belgium, and none was as brutal as his African colony, the so-called Congo Free State. In The King Incorporated, Neal Ascherson recounts King Leopold's exploitation of the Congolese -- he enslaved, tortured, terrorized, and eventually killed an estimated 20 million -- and his efforts to conceal these atrocities from the rest of the world.

Livre
Softcover. Etat : New. Plato is the foundational thinker of European speculative thought. He was the first Western writer to undertake a comprehensive and rigorous study of the fundamental categories of reality and value, and few philosophers have escaped his influence or rivaled the depth of his works, many of which have remarkable dramatic power and literary beauty. His writings range over ethics, politics, religion, art, the structure of the natural world, mathematics, the human mind, love, sex, and friendship. Richard Kraut explores the intellectual milieu that gave rise to Platos thinking and emphasizes the influence of Socrates, whose devotion to the examined life and death at the hands of Athenian democracy are memorialized in many of Platos writings. The full extent of his moral and political thought and its metaphysical underpinning are investigated.
