«Más allá del bien y del mal» es uno de los textos fundamentales de la filosofía del siglo XIX del filósofo alemán Friedrich Nietzsche. En este libro, retoma elementos e ideas de Así habló Zaratustra, presentando un tratamiento de los mismos completamente distinto.

A true friend is a paradox—both a mirror and a mystery, a presence that steadies yet unsettles. Emerson's Friendship is not a sentimental tribute but an exploration, as sharp as it is reverent. He does not merely celebrate companionship; he dissects it, questioning the forces that draw souls together and the invisible tensions that hold them apart. Friendship, in Emerson's vision, is not mere comfort—it is a force, a demand, a test. It requires space as much as closeness, silence as much as words.

En su ensayo La paz perpetua, Immanuel Kant expone una serie de principios racionales y éticos para lograr una paz duradera entre las naciones.

The Philosophy opens with the most human of questions—“What’s the point?”—and dares to follow it wherever it leads. This isn’t just another thought experiment or self-help book. It’s a rallying cry for those who feel the systems around us are broken, yet refuse to believe we are powerless to change them.

Am 28. Januar 1919, mitten in der politischen Umbruchszeit zwischen dem Zusammenbruch des deutschen Kaiserreichs und der Gründung der Weimarer Republik hielt Max Weber in München vor Mitgliedern des Freistudentischen Bunds seinen Vortrag "Politik als Beruf". Nachträglich überarbeitet und stark erweitert, erschien der Vortrag wenige Monate später als einzelne Schrift und etablierte sich in den folgenden Jahrzehnten zu einem viel und kritisch diskutierten Klassiker der Soziologie und der Politikwissenschaft.

Nel rapporto si inserisce il protagonista-narratore che, entrato in contatto con il ricercatore, instaura con lui un intenso dialogo, dal quale emergono le paure, le angosce e i desideri più reconditi che attanagliano l'uomo moderno, mai come in questo inizio millennio bisognoso di certezze.

La desacralizzazione e la scristianizzazione accompagnano il destino dell'uomo occidentale. La civiltà del capitalismo assoluto, che basa il suo dominio sul nichilismo relativista e sulla volontà di potenza tecnoscientifica, non solo non ha più bisogno di affidarsi, come un tempo, alla religione quale strumento di potere: deve necessariamente promuoverne l'estinzione.

La route des philosophes antiques croise sans cesse la nôtre... grâce aux bienfaits de la morale stoïcienne en temps de crise ; par la vision du monde en devenir d'Héraclite. Ou encore à travers Socrate qui, comme maître à penser, continue de faire la une des magazines ! Cela signifie-t-il que l'on n'invente jamais rien? Nullement. Mais tout est en germe dans les commencements, dans la puissance des origines. Les philosophes antiques sont les plus jeunes de nos sages occidentaux, les premiers à avoir voulu vivre éveillés.
