Más allá del bien y del mal
Book SynopsisEntre 1885 y 1886 Nietzsche ofrecía dos títulos que condensaban su ideología principal, de manera muy distinta. Si Así habló Zaratustra expresaba su mensaje intelectual de forma poética y enigmática, Más allá del bien y del mal aparecía, en cambio, como discurso directo y perfectamente estructurado.La denuncia a la vacuidad del pensamiento general, acrítico y sujeto a la moral judeocristiana, emerge entonces en toda su crudeza, para animarnos a superarlo. Debemos situarnos por encima de él, más allá del bien y del mal, esa debería ser nuestra condición de vida.

Taylor & Francis Ltd A General Drama of Pain
Book SynopsisThis motivational analysis of the protagonists in Thomas Hardy''s three most widely read novels--Tess of the d''Urbervilles, The Mayor of Casterbridge, and Jude the Obscure--highlights an often-overlooked aspect of his art. Bernard J. Paris shows Hardy''s genius in creating imagined human beings. He demonstrates that while Hardy tends to blame external conditions for his characters'' painful fates, their downfalls are due to a very complex combination of cosmic, social, and psychological factors. Hardy''s characters are usually discussed primarily in thematic terms. The characters are are so richly portrayed, Paris argues, that they can be better understood independent of Hardy''s interpretations, in motivational terms and he utilizes the psychologist Karen Horney''s theories to recover Hardy''s intuitions. The characters are full of inner conflicts that make them difficult to fathom, but the approach Paris employs explains their contradictions and illuminates thTable of ContentsAcknowledgments, Preface, 1 Initial Attraction, 2 “A Confusion of Many Standards”: Conflicting Value Systems in Tess of the d’Urbervilles, 3 Tess the Woman, 4 Th e Mayor of Casterbridge, 5 Jude the Obscure : Jude, 6 Jude the Obscure : Jude and Sue, 7 Jude the Obscure : Th e Catastrophe, Conclusion, References , Index

Cambridge University Press Pliny the Younger Epistles Book Ii Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics
Book SynopsisPliny the Younger's nine-book Epistles is a masterpiece of Roman prose. Often mined as a historical and pedagogical sourcebook, this collection of 'private' letters is now finding recognition as a rich and rewarding work in its own right. The second book is a typically varied yet taut suite of miniatures, including among its twenty letters the trial of Marius Priscus and Pliny's famous portrait of his Laurentine villa. This edition, the first to address a complete book of Epistles in over a century, presents a Latin text together with an introduction and commentary intended for students, teachers and scholars. With clear linguistic explanations and full literary analysis, it invites readers to a fresh appreciation of Pliny's lettered art.Trade Review'… a sophisticated resource for mature academics and a catalyst for invigorating classroom discussion for students.'

Cambridge University Press Cicero De Oratore Book III
Book SynopsisCicero''s De Oratore is one of the masterpieces of Latin prose. A literary dialogue in the Greek tradition, it was written in 55 BCE in the midst of political turmoil at Rome, but reports a discussion ''concerning the (ideal) orator'' that supposedly took place in 90 BCE, just before an earlier crisis. Cicero features eminent orators and statesmen of the past as participants in this discussion, presenting competing views on many topics. This edition of Book III is the first since 1893 to provide a Latin text and full introduction and commentary in English. It is intended to help advanced students and others interested in Roman literature to comprehend the grammar and appreciate the stylistic nuances of Cicero''s Latin, to trace the historical, literary, and theoretical background of the topics addressed, and to interpret Book III in relation to the rest of De Oratore and to Cicero''s other works.Trade Review"...it should be stated emphatically that this is a most welcome addition to the green-and-yellow series. I expect to return to it again and again for help in interpreting this difficult text." ---BMCRTable of ContentsIntroduction; De Oratore Book III; Commentary.
