Описание: In the second edition of Being (book I of the Science of Logic) Hegel makes extensive use of the term plastisch. Hegelian critics and commentators from Catherine Malabou to Pierre-Jean Labarriere read his use of this term as a wish to override the Logic's pure forms and rigid conceptualizations of universality. Other readers of Hegel's Logic, like Stanley Rosen, warned against this plastic model of 'universal effectuality' and the scholarly danger of straying away from 'the idea of Hegel's science of logic.' Contemporary Hegelian studies have been marked by this double turn to the logical foundation and speculative core of Hegel's system, that is, to his logic as 'science'.
This is the first book to introduce Italian and subaltern interpretations of the Hegelian Wirklichkeit (often translated as actuality), and to examine its implications throughout Hegel's thought, taking Hegel's Science of Logic as the basis for his philosophy. The volume's understanding of effectual reality situates itself in a Machiavellian-Gramscian genealogy of ideas, and with an emphasis on the practical element of Wirklichkeit, beyond plasticity and actuality, it systematically considers the applications of Hegel's logic to his philosophy of nature and the human world.
Analyzing the relation between the Logic and its realizations, this book shows the internal tension that inhabits Hegel's philosophy at the intersection of logical (conceptual) speculation and concrete (interpretative) analysis.
Heaven's Wrath explores the religious thought and religious rites of the early Dutch Atlantic world. D. L. Noorlander argues that the Reformed Church and the West India Company forged and maintained a close union, with considerable consequences across the seventeenth century.
Noorlander questions the core assumptions about why the Dutch failed to establish a durable empire in America. He downplays the usual commercial explanations and places the focus instead on the tremendous expenses incurred in the Calvinist-backed war and the Reformed Church's meticulous, worried management of colonial affairs. By pinpointing the issues that hampered the size and import of the Dutch Atlantic world, Noorlander revises core notions about the organization and aims of the Dutch empire, the culture of the West India Company, and the very shape of Dutch society.

Описание:
The Western World is becoming atheist. In the space of three generations churchgoing and religious belief have become alien to millions. We are in the midst of one of humankind's great cultural changes. How has this happened?
Becoming Atheist explores how people of the sixties' generation have come to live their lives as if there is no God. It tells the life narratives of those from Britain, Western Europe, the United States and Canada who came from Christian, Jewish and other backgrounds to be without faith. Based on interviews with 85 people born in 18 countries, Callum Brown shows how gender, ethnicity and childhood shape how individuals lose religion. This book moves from statistical and broad cultural analysis to use frank, humorous and sometimes harrowing personal testimony. Becoming Atheist exposes people's role in renegotiating their own identities, and fashioning a secular and humanist culture for the Western world.
