Описание: Ethics, or the systematized set of inquiries and responses to the question "what should I do?" has infused the history of human narrative for more than two centuries. One of the foremost theorists of ethics during the twentieth century, Emmanuel Levinas (1906-1995) radicalized the discipline of philosophy by arguing that "the ethical" is the foundational moment for human subjectivity, and that human subjectivity underlies all of Western philosophy. Levinas's voice is crucial to the resurging global attention to ethics because he grapples with the quintessential problem of alterity or "otherness," which he conceptualizes as the articulation of, and prior responsibility to, difference in relation to the competing movement toward sameness. Academicians and journalists in Spain and abroad have recently fastened on an emerging cluster of peninsular writers who, they argue, pertain to a discernible literary generation, provisionally referred to as Generaci?n X. These writers are distinct from their predecessors; they and their literary texts are closely related to the specific socio-political and historical circumstances in Spain and their novels relate stories of more and less proximity, more and less responsibility, and more and less temporality. In short, they trace the temporal movement of alterity through narrative. Published by Bucknell University Press. Distributed worldwide by Rutgers University Press.
This is the inspirational true story of Carlo Molinaro, born into a poor family in Italy during World War II. His father made him quit school by the second grade to work a job. Having no skills or schooling, Carlo worked his way up from bus boy to restaurant owner, motiviated by the words and guidance of his mother.
He worked at high-class restaurants and hotels throughout Europe, Bermuda, and the U.S., learning how to cook and from the chefs at those establishments. Along the way, he learned new languages and observed what worked and didn't work in these restaurants, waiting for the day he could save enough money to open his own restaurant.
After journeying to the United States, which he only knew from the westerns he watched as a boy, he finally arrived in Houston, Texas during the oil boom. He was able to open his own restaurant near the famous Galleria shopping area.
He kept his menu simple, serving rustic homestyle Italian meals using only the freshest ingredients. He treated every diner like family and built a loyal customer base. He ran the restaurant for over 28 years, until health issues forced him to close.
He decided to write a book to show readers that everyone can be successful in life, if they approach their opportunites with discipline and drive while showing respect and courtesy.
