In Diogenes, classicist Inger N.I. Kuin scours all existing evidence of Diogenes and his followers to offer an in-depth account of Diogenes’ life and thought, revealing a man whose innovative ideas about power, death, nature, and the body have much to teach the contemporary world. He pioneered a vision of simplicity and autonomy in his day-to-day life, stressing the importance of living in the here and now, and of always thinking for oneself.

According to the philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951), philosophy is a “battle against the bewitchment of our intelligence by means of language.” This audacious idea changed the way many of its practitioners saw their subject. In the first biography of Wittgenstein in more than three decades, Anthony Gottlieb evaluates this revolutionary idea, explaining the evolution of Wittgenstein’s thought and his place in the history of philosophy.

Um das Paradox von Unabschließbarkeit und Gewissheit kreist das Denken Kafkas. Die Entdeckung des Zweifellosen in sich, zu dem er gar nicht viel an sich verändern, sondern nur die alten, engen Umrisse seines Wesens nachziehen musste, scheint dabei das Agens einer praktischen Philosophie zu sein, bei der es Kafka letzthin um die nächsten Bedürfnisse des Lebens geht, vor allem in der Frage zur Bildung eines Verantwortungsgefühls, einer ethischen Musikalität.

John Dee was one of the greatest scientific minds of his time, but also one of the most controversial.

"In der Form der Aussage (...) wurde zunehmend ein Problem wichtig: Es muß gelingen, die Substanz der Philosophie, wenn sie einmal erarbeitet ist, in eine einfache Reflexionsfolge und Sprache zu bringen, sodass Philosophie ohne Substanzverlust nach einem elitären auch ein allgemeines Denken werden kann. "Die 'Einführung in die Philosophie" (1950) war der erste und glücklichste Versuch darin (...)." (Hans Saner)

He was sick, alone, and laughed at by every polite thinker of his day. Then he broke the world. This is the life and madness of Friedrich Nietzsche — the man who declared God dead, tore morality out by the roots, and invented the Übermensch before collapsing in a foreign street, hugging a horse and signing letters as Dionysus. Nietzsche: The Man Who Saw Too Much is a mind-melting biography of the firebrand who rewired philosophy from the ground up.

"Ecce Homo" ist das letzte Werk vor seinem Nervenzusammenbruch im Jahre 1889.

I could have written a book about my lifelong journey into mysticism, yoga, shamanism and the occult, and articulated the powerful realizations I have stumbled into along the way.
