Aristotle on the Perfect Life - Sir Anthony Kenny - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Aristotle on the Perfect Life - Sir Anthony Kenny - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Aristotle''s teaching on the subject of happiness has been a topic of intense philosophical debate in recent years. Did he hold that happiness consists of the exercise of all the virtues, moral and intellectual, or that supreme happiness is to be found only in the practice of philosophical contemplation? The question is vital to the relevance of his ethics today. Anthony Kenny helped to set the terms of the debate a quarter of a century ago. Later, in his book The Aristotelian Ethics (Clarendon Press, 1978), he argued that Aristotle''s Eudemian Ethics has no less claim than the better-known Nicomachean Ethics to be taken as a late and definitive statement of Aristotle''s position. In this new book he refines his view of the relationship between the two treatises and shows how to reach a consensus on the interpretation of the texts. Aristotle''s admirers struggle to read a comprehensive account of the supreme happiness into the Nicomachean Ethics; Dr Kenny argues that those who are prepared to take the neglected Eudemian Ethics with equal seriousness are able to presrve their admiration intact without doing violence to any of the relevant texts.

Rights and Deprivation - Lesley A. Jacobs - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Rights and Deprivation - Lesley A. Jacobs - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

In this book Lesley Jacobs challenges the view, now prevalent in North America and Western Europe, that the primary function of a nation''s social policy should be to provide support only for the poorest people instead of social services accessible to all its citizens.In an interesting and distinctive argument he develops and defends the idea that access to basic rights such as education, health care, adequate housing, and income support can provide a solid moral foundation for redistributive state welfare programmes, maintaining that any nation which purports to take rights to basic liberties seriously must also be fully committed to the principles of the welfare state. Dr Jacob''s thesis addresses a pressing political and philosophical problem at the heart of the policies and structure of the modern state.

Russia Abroad - Marc Raeff - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Russia Abroad - Marc Raeff - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

The dramatic events of the twentieth century have often brought about the mass migration of intellectuals, professionals, writers, and artists. One of the first such migrations occurred in the aftermath of the Russian Revolution, when more than a million Russians were forced into exile. What distinguishes this emigration from other such episodes in European history is the extent to which the émigrés succeeded in reconstituting and preserving their cultural creativity in the West. Marc Raeff has written the first comprehensive cultural history of the `Great Russian Emigration''. He concludes with an assessment of the Russian emigration''s impact on the development of modern Western culture.

Maximal God - Yujin Nagasawa - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Maximal God - Yujin Nagasawa - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Yujin Nagasawa presents a new, stronger version of perfect being theism, the conception of God as the greatest possible being. Although perfect being theism is the most common form of monotheism in the Judeo-Christian-Islamic tradition its truth has been disputed by philosophers and theologians for centuries. Nagasawa proposes a new, game-changing defence of perfect being theism by developing what he calls the ''maximal concept of God''. Perfect being theists typically maintain that God is an omniscient, omnipotent, and omnibenevolent being; according to Nagasawa, God should be understood rather as a being that has the maximal consistent set of knowledge, power, and benevolence. Nagasawa argues that once we accept the maximal concept we can establish perfect being theism on two grounds. First, we can refute nearly all existing arguments against perfect being theism simultaneously. Second, we can construct a novel, strengthened version of the modal ontological argument for perfect being theism. Nagasawa concludes that the maximal concept grants us a unified defence of perfect being theism that is highly effective and economical.

The Ancient Mesopotamian City - Marc Van De Mieroop - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Ancient Mesopotamian City - Marc Van De Mieroop - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Urban history starts in Mesopotamia: the earliest known cities developed there as a result of long indigenous processes and, for millennia, the city determined every aspect of Mesopotamian civilization. Marc Van De Mieroop examines urban life in the historical period, investigating urban topography, the role of cities as centres of culture, their political and social structures, economy, literature, and the arts. He draws on material from the entirety of Mesopotamian history, from c. 3000 to 300 BC, and from both Babylonia and Assyria, arguing that the Mesopotamian city can be regarded as a prototype that inspired the rest of the ancient world and shared characteristics with the European cities of antiquity.
