Republic
Sin existencias
COP $ 48.000The ideas of Plato (c429-3471BC) have influenced Western philosophers for over two thousand years. Such is his importance that the twentieth-century philosopher A. N. Whitehead described all subsequent developments within the subject as foot-notes to Plato\'s work. Beyond philosophy, he has exerted a major influence on the development of Western literature, politics and theology. The Republic deals with the great range of Plato\'s thought, but is particularly concerned with what makes a well-balanced society and individual. It combines argument -and myth to advocate a life organised by reason rather than dominated by desires and appetites. Regarded by some as the foundation document of totalitarianism, by others as a call to develop the full potential of humanity, the Republic remains a challenging and intensely exciting work.

Thus spake zarathustra
Sin existencias
COP $ 48.000This astonishing series of aphorisms, put into the mouth of the Persian sage Zarathustra, or Zoroaster, contains the kernel of Nietzsche\'s thought. \'God is dead\', he tells us. Christianity is decadent, leading mankind into a slave morality concerned not with this life, but with the next. Nietzsche emphasises the Übermensch, or Superman, whose will to power makes him the creator of a new heroic mentality. The intensely felt ideas are expressed in prose-poetry of indefinable beauty. Though misused by the German National Socialist party as a spurious justification of their creed, the book also had a profound influence on early twentieth century writers such as Shaw, Mann, Gide, Lawrence and Sartre. It remains, to this day, a beacon of original thought. Nota: El contenido de este libro se encuentra en inglés.
