Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Delving into the mind of Plato, this book questions how our world became so entrenched in his philosophical ideals through the lens of contemporary thought. The author challenges long-held interpretations of Platonic doctrines, particularly the theory of Forms, seeking to clarify misun…derstandings perpetuated by 19th-century German philosophy and the mystical Neoplatonism of Plotinus. By examining the evolution of Plato's thinking and separating his genuine ideas from those attributed to him, the book seeks to illuminate the profound impact of his concept of Forms, which posited that true reality exists beyond the physical world we perceive. Ultimately, this work invites readers to re-evaluate Plato's enduring influence and the relevance of his philosophy to our understanding of the relationship between the sensible and intelligible worlds.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an unprecedented glimpse into the Haitian Revolution through the eyes of a firsthand witness, Guillaume Mauviel. A French bishop, Mauviel arrived in Saint-Domingue in 1790, just as the colony was on the cusp of a major uprising. Over the following years, he witnessed t…he rise and fall of Toussaint Louverture, the charismatic leader who emerged from the chaos of the revolution. As he navigated the treacherous political landscape, Mauviel's deep understanding of the complex forces at play, including the motivations of the enslaved population, allowed him to provide a unique perspective on the events unfolding around him. His account sheds light on the complexities of the revolution, illuminating the challenges of governing a diverse and volatile society amidst the struggle for freedom and self-determination. Mauviel's insights are a valuable contribution to our understanding of this pivotal moment in history.
