Résultats pour "Moral" dans Classiques

Dans Les deux sources de la morale et de la religion, son dernier grand livre (1932), Bergson ne se contente pas d'établir la distinction entre le clos et l'ouvert comme critère absolu, en morale, mais aussi en religion (et même dans chaque religion) et en politique. Il en recherche le double fondement, dans la structure immuable de notre espèce, d'un côté dans les actes imprévisibles des grands hommes de bien ou des mystiques, de l'autre.

In der Komödie "Moral" (1906) nimmt Ludwig Thoma die spießige Moralheuchelei des damaligen Bürgertums aufs Korn. Die Verhaftung der Madame Ninon de Hauteville (mit bürgerlichem Namen: Therese Hochstetter), einer Dame von zweifelhafter und zugleich eindeutiger Profession, erregt in der Stadt größtes Aufsehen. Man hat auch ihr Tagebuch beschlagnahmt, das gewisse pikante, für einige Honoratioren, äußerst peinliche Notierungen enthält. Der mit der Untersuchung des Falles beauftragte Assessor Ströbel, ein sehr pflichteifriger Beamter, betreibt seine Nachforschungen zuerst mit aller Energie, dann, angesichts der sich sogleich einstellenden Schwierigkeiten, mit zunehmender Unsicherheit.

Le Operette morali sono una raccolta di ventiquattro componimenti in prosa, divise tra dialoghi e novelle dallo stile medio e ironico, scritte tra il 1824 ed il 1832. Riflessione filosofica ed empito poetico fanno sì che Leopardi, al pari di Schopenhauer e più tardi di Kafka, possa essere visto come un esistenzialista o almeno un precursore dell'EsistenzialismoI temi sono quelli cari al poeta: il rapporto dell'uomo con la storia, con i suoi simili e in particolare con la Natura, di cui Leopardi matura una personale visione filosofica.

"Onde quer que apareça a censura, onde quer que se aninhe esta irmã gêmea da inquisição, há uma quebra nos foros da independência do homem, há uma insolência do passado contra a dignidade social da geração presente. Seja para o que for, a censura é um impossível político." O que parece ser um ataque à censura é, na realidade, sua defesa. O ensaio, aqui editado, de Alexandre Herculano, é evidentemente anacrônico, porém recheado de argumentos que, em última instância, permitem ao leitor uma boa reflexão sobre o tema!

Questo è il sentimento che riempie di sé tutta l'opera leopardiana: la desolata nostalgia d'una felicità sconosciuta ed assurda, la disperata aspirazione verso un mondo migliore. Nelle più riuscite fra le "Operette", come nei "Canti", la poesia non nasce dalla brutta realtà ma dal vano bisogno di superarla... Così nelle "Operette" come nei "Canti" questa realtà grigia si disegna sul fondo luminoso di un ideale: e l'impressione dominante è quella di una delusione non rassegnata.

Eine kuriose Wiener Geschichte die Jung und Alt zum Schmunzeln bringt. Weil ich Augengläser trage sagen manche Leute „Doktor“ zu mir. Merkwürdiger Weise schätze sie mich nicht als Mediziner sondern als Juristen, so auch der Monteur... Rudolf Stürzer (1865 – 1926) war Schriftsteller, Journalist und Redakteur.

A master of wit and wry humor on the page, Mark Twain also gained acclaim as a speaker throughout his literary career. Twain delivered this address on theoretical morality vs. practical morality to the New Vagabonds Club of London. With his signature tongue-in-cheek humor, he tells the audience that the only way to learn practical morality is by committing immoral acts in order to “vaccinate” oneself against committing them in the future. Presented with anecdotes from his childhood, this Twain speech masterfully walks the line between light-hearted humor and biting truth.

Le Operette Morali, il libro "più caro dei miei occhi" come lo definì lo stesso Leopardi, sono una raccolta di prose e dialoghi di carattere satirico, fantastico e filosofico, scritte tra il 1824 e il 1832, in cui lo scrittore e poeta tenta di educare un'Umanità incapace di guardare in faccia la realtà e che si culla in vane illusioni. Leopardi si sforza, a volte con spietatezza ed ironia, di "chiarirgli" quale sia il suo destino. Le Operette sono considerate uno dei capolavori della letteratura italiana di tutti i tempi.

The book is one of the most influential ethical treatises of all time. Written in 350 BC, it identifies happiness as life's goal. How do we achieve this goal? Not through the satisfactions that come from pleasure, wealth, or fame. According to Aristotle, the true path to happiness lies in contemplation of philosophic truth. This is the only action through which humans can exercise their distinctively unique trait: the ability to reason.

In the Nicomachean Ethics (so called after their first editor, Aristotle's son Nicomachus) Aristotle sets out to discover the good life for man: the life of happiness or eudaimonia. Happiness for Aristotle is the activity of the soul in accordance with virtue. Virtue is shown in the deliberate choice of actions as part of a worked-out plan of life, a plan which takes a middle course between excess and deficiency.

"It takes an entire lifetime to learn how to die", wrote the Roman Stoic philosopher Seneca (c. 4 BC-65 AD). He counseled readers to "study death always", and took his own advice, returning to the subject again and again in all his writings, yet he never treated it in a complete work. How to Die gathers in one volume, for the first time, Seneca's remarkable meditations on death and dying. Edited and translated by James S. Romm, How to Die reveals a provocative thinker who speaks with a startling frankness about the need to accept death or even, under certain conditions, to seek it out.

The Allegory of the Cave, or Plato's Cave, was presented by the Greek philosopher Plato to compare "[T]he effect of education and the lack of it on our nature". It is written as a dialogue between Plato's brother Glaucon and his mentor, Socrates, narrated by the latter.

Narrated by award winning narrator Mike Vendetti, Henry David argues that individuals should not permit governments to overrule or atrophy their consciences, and that they have a duty to avoid allowing such acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican-American War.
