Perhaps one of the most revolutionary works of philosophy ever presented, The Phenomenology of Spirit is Hegel's 1807 work that is in numerous ways extraordinary. A myriad of topics are discussed, and explained in such a harmoniously complex way that the method has been termed Hegelian dialectic. Ultimately, the work as a whole is a remarkable study of the mind's growth from its direct awareness to scientific philosophy, proving to be a difficult yet highly influential and enduring work.

Die "Phänomenologie des Geistes" zählt zu den bedeutendsten Werken der Philosophie. Hegel veröffentlichte sie 1807 als den einleitenden Teil seines Gesamtkonzepts, eines methodisch zusammenhängenden "Systems der Wissenschaften", welches er bis zu seinem Tode 1830 ausbaute. Auf eine bis heute einzigartige Weise stellt die "Phänomenologie" das notwendig fortschreitende Wechselverhältnis der Formen unseres Bewusstseins mit seinen Gegenstandsinhalten dar. Unser Wissen entwickelt sich hierbei vor unserem geistigen Auge von seiner einfachsten Stufe bis zu seiner höchsten Erscheinung.

The four long narratives in The Emigrants appear at first to be the straightforward biographies of four Germans in exile. Sebald reconstructs the lives of a painter, a doctor, an elementary-school teacher, and Great Uncle Ambrose. Following (literally) in their footsteps, the narrator retraces routes of exile which lead from Lithuania to London, from Munich to Manchester, from the South German provinces to Switzerland, France, New York, Constantinople, and Jerusalem.

L'œuvre de Hegel est le sommet de la philosophie idéaliste allemande. Figure incontournable de l'Aufklärung (les Lumières), son influence a été décisive sur l'ensemble de la philosophie contemporaine. Hegel construit un système grandiose qui part de deux questions fondamentales : "Si Dieu existe, d'où vient le mal", et "Si la vérité est une, pourquoi les philosophes se contredisent-ils ?".

Henry VIII is one of the most famous monarchs to have ruled England. Yet, what was life like for those that he ruled? How were they impacted by the wars with France, his marital disasters and the religious Reformation that his chief ministers implemented? The Age of Plunder does not dwell upon the lives of political and religious leaders such as Wolsey, Cromwell and Cranmer, but instead provides a vivid depiction of Tudor England from the perspective of those who tended the crops, sat at the looms and worked in the mines.

When results depend on your availability and constant rescue, growth never feels stable. It feels like pressure—like you’re always on. Results on Repeat is a multi-author playbook for founders and leaders who want predictable growth without becoming the bottleneck. It replaces hustle with operating systems built on four levers: capacity, delegation, structure, and trust.

Rick Moody ( The Ice Storm), Dinaw Mengestu ( All Our Names), and Hari Kunzru ( Gods Without Men) lead a spirited conversation about Sebald's classic.

Este libro ejemplifica como pocos la idea de que la obra postrera de un autor se transforma en involuntario legado. Austerlitz es el último libro que Sebald publicó en vida, y sin duda una de las novelas más ineludibles de la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Pero es también una novela fantasma: el retrato fascinado de una Europa recién desaparecida. A través de los encuentros entre el narrador y el misterioso Jacques Austerlitz, al que conoce accidentalmente en la estación de Amberes, se va desplegando un recorrido espectral por la civilización europea del siglo XX, un mundo de fortalezas, estaciones de tren, campos de concentración, librerías.

Using the writings of Cosmas and a wealth of other historical and archaeological evidence from the period, eminent historian G. W. Bowersock carefully reconstructs this fascinating but overlooked chapter in pre-Islamic Arabian history. The flashpoint of the war, Bowersock tells us, occurred when Yusuf, the Jewish king of Himyar, massacred hundreds of Christians living in Najran. The Christian ruler of Ethiopia, Kaleb, urged on by the Byzantine emperor Justin, led a force of 120,000 men across the Red Sea to defeat Yusuf.

If companies want to reach their full potential and achieve true fairness, the workplace must change. In this book, gender-in-the-workplace experts W. Brad Johnson and David G. Smith offer a blueprint for how leaders can break down systemic barriers across the organization so that men can do more outside of paid work—and women can take their place in leadership. Fair Share offers a look at what organizations can become when leaders finally break down the obstacles holding everyone back.

Inspired by an old photograph album to investigate the life of a lost relative, a man finds himself on a journey that traverses the 20th century, leading him from an American asylum to the shores of the Dead Sea.

Women are at a disadvantage in the workplace, where they deal with unequal pay, sexual harassment, lack of credit for their contributions, and more. And while organizations are looking to address these issues, too many gender-inclusion initiatives focus exclusively on how women should respond, leaving men out of the equation. Such efforts reinforce the perception that these are "women's issues" and that men - often the most powerful stakeholders in an organization - don't need to be involved.
