Paperback. Condition: New. Thucydides has long been celebrated for the unflinching realism of his presentation of political life. And yet, as some scholars have asserted, his work also displays a profound humanity. In the first thorough exploration of the relation between these two traits, Clifford Orwin argues that Thucydides'…humanity is not a reflection of the author's temperament but an aspect of his thought, above all of his articulation of the central problem of political life, the tension between right and compulsion. This book provides the most complete treatment to date of Thucydides' handling of the problem of injustice, as well as the most extensive interpretations yet of the speeches in which it comes to light. Thucydides does not merely display the weakness of justice in the world, but joins his characters in exploring the implications of this weakness for our understanding of what justice is.Orwin pursues this question through Thucydides' work and relates it to the historian's other leading concerns, such as the contrast between the Athenian way and the Spartan way, the role of piety in political life, the interaction of foreign and domestic politics, and the role of statesmanship in a world dominated by frenzies of hope, fear, and indignation. Above all, Orwin demonstrates the richness, complexity, and daring of Thucydides' articulation of these issues.

kart. / Paperback. Condition: Gut. XIV, 331 S. / p. Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar / a good and clean copy - Few thinkers have enjoyed so pervasive an influence as Rousseau, who originated modern dissatisfaction with modernity. By exploring polarities articulated by Rousseau - nature versus society, self versus other, community… versus individual, and compassion versus competitiveness these fourteen original essays show how his thought continues to shape our ways of talking, feeling, thinking, and complaining. -- The volume begins with a chapter by Werner Dannhauser that lakes up a central theme noted by the late Allan Bloom Rousseaus critique of the bourgeois as the dominant modern human type and as a being fundamentally in contradiction, caught between the sentiments of nature and the demands of society. A chapter by Christopher Kelly explores one of Rousseaus alternatives to the bourgeois, the arts, and their problematic relation to society. The volume then turns to Rousseaus crucial polarity of nature and society and to the later conceptions of history and culture it gave rise to. Chapters by Susan Shell, Richard Velkley, Joel Schwartz, and Roger Masters investigate the legacy of Rousseau in Kants conception of history, German idealisms distinction between culture and civilization, Freuds theory of the relation of sexuality to society7, and the scientific study of human nature. -- The third part surveys Rousseaus legacy in both domestic and international politics. Allan Bloom analyzes Rousseaus search for a political alternative to bourgeois liberalism, while François Furet offers a revisionist account of the role of Rousseaus ideas in the French Revolution. Chapters by Marc Planner, Pierre Hassner, and H. D. Forbes consider the implications of Rousseaus thought lor international and interethnic politics. Finally, chapters by Steven Kautz, Arthur Melzer, and Clifford Orwin examine Rousseaus contributions to the virtues that have become central to the current sensibility: community, sincerity, and compassion.
