Despus de ms de 20 aos de docencia en la enseanza secundaria me he permitido elaborar el libro que me hubiera gustado poder consultar cuando empec.Sin atenerme a ninguna programacin escolar vigente he desarrollado aquellos temas que creo que debera tratar una introduccin a la Poltica.Aunque siempre he buscado la sencillez expositiva no por ello he obviado ninguna cuestin por su supuesta complejidad.Partiendo de los fundamentos comunes a la tica y la Poltica, la libertad y la justicia, me adentro en un desarrollo simple basado en la relacin entre ambas disciplinas a lo largo del tiempo. No pretendo ser exhaustivo con los autores tratados, pues eso dara lugar a otro tipo de manual ms lleno de datos y detalles, sino esbozar los temas tal y como han ido apareciendo a lo largo de la Historia.Al hilo de los filsofos clsicos como Platn, Aristteles, Maquiavelo, Hobbes, Rousseau, Marx, etc. y de algunos contemporneos a los que presto especial atencin como H. Arendt y J. Patoka va emergiendo el rostro de nuestras ideologas polticas actuales y de las estructuras y sistemas en que se concretan.Honestamente, creo que el beneficio que puede aportar esta obra es la cantidad y la concrecin de los ejemplos que abundan en los textos clsicos de la disciplina pero sin olvidar la relevancia de algunos documentos literarios y cinematogrficos con que podemos contar en el s. XXI.

A veces, el mayor aprendizaje no est en los libros, sino en lo que te rompe y, despus, te reconstruye.Este libro no es una teora ni una frmula mgica. Es el testimonio de una vida vivida a contracorriente, marcada por etiquetas, barreras y diagnsticos..., pero tambin por el esfuerzo, la creatividad y el deseo profundo de ser til a otros.A travs de experiencias reales, reflexiones ntimas y propuestas prcticas, Pintando con emociones se convierte en una gua cercana para transformar el dolor en conocimiento y la diferencia en una herramienta de cambio. Desde la infancia marcada por el sndrome de Tourette y el trastorno del espectro autista hasta la creacin de una metodologa propia basada en la inteligencia emocional, el juego y la educacin social, cada captulo es una invitacin a aprender, sentir y acompaar.Un libro pensado para quienes educan, cuidan, sienten distinto o simplemente buscan un motivo para seguir creyendo en las personas.

El suicidio de las madres es una profunda y perturbadora novela que explora la desesperación y la lucha interna de un hombre al borde de la autodestrucción. La historia sigue a Juan, un hombre desgarrado por el dolor y marcado por las cicatrices de un pasado atormentado. Despues de años de maltrato, traicion y abandono, Juan llega a la conclusion de que la unica forma de escapar de su sufrimiento es a traves de la muerte. Cansado de vivir una vida llena de injusticias, decide saltar desde la ventana de su septimo piso, pensando que el impacto de la caida pondra fin a su dolor.Sin embargo, mientras se encuentra en el borde de la ventana, una revelacion lo detiene: recuerda las enseñanzas de un profesor de filosofia sobre la verdadera felicidad, aquella que solo llega con la ausencia total de dolor. Para Juan, la unica manera de encontrar esa paz es a traves de la muerte, pero, antes de hacer el salto final, algo cambia en su mente. Piensa que, si el ha sufrido tanto, hay otros que lo han hecho mas, y estos otros son los responsables de su dolor. Por eso, antes de acabar con su vida, decide hacer algo mas: liberarlos de su tormento, convencido de que, al hacerlo, les regalara la felicidad que el nunca pudo encontrar.Asi, con la excusa de hacer felices a los que mas le han lastimado, Juan decide llevar a cabo un oscuro plan: matar a tres personas que, segun el, viven atrapadas en un sufrimiento tan grande como el suyo. La primera es Amanda Rosario, su amante, que lo traiciono y lo contagio de una enfermedad devastadora; la segunda es su padre, cuya ausencia fue una condena silenciosa; y la tercera es su propia madre, la mujer que lo maltrato durante su infancia y cuya crueldad lo marco para siempre.A traves de este acto final de liberacion, Juan cree que alcanzara la felicidad y el estado de paz absoluta que tanto ansia. Pero, mientras se adentra en este camino, se enfrenta a la ambiguedad moral de sus decisiones y a las preguntas sobre la naturaleza del sufrimiento y la felicidad. El suicidio de las madres es una reflexion cruda sobre el sufrimiento, la culpa y la desesperacion. A medida que se acerca a la muerte, Juan se enfrenta a la paradoja de intentar liberar a otros cuando no sabe como liberarse a si mismo.

Homer commences his story, not at the beginning, but "in the midst of things;" hence, when one starts out to read the Iliad without having made some special preparation beforehand, he finds it hard to understand, and is tempted, in despair, to stop at the end of the first book. Many people are, therefore, content to admire the great masterpiece of poetry and story-telling simply because others admire it, and not because they have any personal acquaintance with it.Now, it is not my purpose to give you a "simplified version" of the Iliad or the Odyssey. There are already many such versions; but the best way for you, or any one else, to read Homer, is to read Homer. If you do not understand Greek, you can read him in one of the many English translations. You will find much of the spirit of the original in the translations by Bryant, by Lord Derby, and by old George Chapman, as well as in the admirable prose rendering by Butcher and Lang; but you can get none of it in any so-called simplified version.My object in writing this "Story of the Golden Age" has been to pave the way, if I dare say it, to an enjoyable reading of Homer, either in translations or in the original.

The period included in the reigns of Nero, Galba, Otho, Vitellius, and Vespasian, was remarkable for two memorable events in the annals of ecclesiastical history; the first persecution of the Christian Church by the sixth Roman sovereign, and the dissolution of the Jewish polity by Titus.The destruction of Jerusalem was stupendous, not only as an act of divine wrath, but as being the proximate cause of the dispersion of a whole nation, upon which a long series of sorrow, spoliation, and oppression lighted, in consequence of the curse the Jews had invoked, when in reply to the remonstrances of Pilate they had cried out, "His blood be upon us and our children."The church below, represented in Scripture as a type of the heavenly Jerusalem above, and having its seat then in the doomed city, was not to continue there, lest the native Jews composing it should gather round them a people of their own nation, in a place destined to remain desolate till the time when the dispersed of Israel should be converted, and rebuild their city and temple. The city bearing the ancient name of Jerusalem does not indeed occupy the same site, being built round the sacred spot.

The excellence of the following Treatise is so well known to all in any tolerable degree conversant with the Art of Painting, that it would be almost superfluous to say any thing respecting it, were it not that it here appears under the form of a new translation, of which fome account may be expected.Of the original Work, which is in reality a selection from the voluminous manuscript collections of the Author, both in Solio and Quarto, of all such passages as related to Painting, no edition appeared in print till 1651.Though its Author died so long before as the year 1519; and it is owing to the circumstance of a manuscript copy of these extracts in the original Italian, having fallen into the hands of "Raphael" that in the former of these years it was published at Paris in a thin folio volume in that language, accompanied with a set of cuts from the drawings of Niccolo Pouissin, and Alberti, the former having designed and defined the human figures, the latter the geometrical and other representations..

The two strangers remained standing by the door, which was closed quietly behind them. They seemed to be waiting for the mild sensation caused by their appearance to subside before advancing into the room. Maskull was a kind of giant, but of broader and more robust physique than most giants. He wore a full beard. His features were thick and heavy, coarsely modelled, like those of a wooden carving; but his eyes, small and black, sparkled with the fires of intelligence and audacity. His hair was short, black, and bristling.Night-spore was of middle height, but so tough-looking that he appeared to be trained out of all human frailties and susceptibilities. His hairless face seemed consumed by an intense spiritual hunger, and his eyes were wild and distant. Both men were dressed in tweeds.Before any words were spoken, a loud and terrible crash of falling masonry caused the assembled party to start up from their chairs in consternation. It sounded as if the entire upper part of the building had collapsed. Faull sprang to the door, and called to the servant to say what was happening. The man had to be questioned twice before he gathered what was required of him.

Beginning with his A Treatise of Human Nature (1739), Hume strove to create a total naturalistic "science of man" that examined the psychological basis of human nature. In stark opposition to the rationalists who preceded him, most notably Descartes, he concluded that desire rather than reason governed human behaviour, saying:"Reason is, and ought only to be the slave of the passions". A prominent figure in the sceptical philosophical tradition and a strong empiricist, he argued against the existence of innate ideas, concluding instead that humans have knowledge only of things they directly experience..NOTHING is more usual and more natural for those, who pretend to discover anything new to the world in philosophy and the sciences, than to insinuate the praises of their own systems, by decrying all those, which have been advanced before them. And indeed were they content with lamenting that ignorance, which we still lie under in the most important questions, that can come before the tribunal of human reason, there are few, who have an acquaintance with the sciences, that would not readily agree with them.

This fantastically precise misconception was based upon a too literal interpretation of the Hebrew Bible, and upon rather arbitrary theological assumptions connected therewith. Such ideas have long since been abandoned by religious teachers, and it is universally recognized that the universe in which we live has to all appearances existed for an enormous period of time and possibly for endless time. Of course there may be deception in these appearances, as a room may be made to seem endless by putting mirrors facing each other at either end.But that the universe in which we live has existed only for six or seven thousand years may be regarded as an altogether exploded idea.The earth, as everybody knows nowadays, is a spheroid, a sphere slightly compressed, orange fashion, with a diameter of nearly 8,000 miles. Its spherical shape has been known at least to a limited number of intelligent people for nearly 2,500 years, but before that time it was supposed to be flat, and various ideas which now seem fantastic were entertained about its relations to the sky and the stars and planets.

A Tale of Two Cities (1859) is a novel by Charles Dickens, set in London and Paris before and during the French Revolution. With well, it ranks among the most famous works in the history of fictional literature.The novel depicts the plight of the French peasantry demoralized by the French aristocracy in the years leading up to the revolution, the corresponding brutality demonstrated by the revolutionaries toward the former aristocrats in the early years of the revolution, and many unflattering social parallels with life in London during the same time period. It follows the lives of several protagonists through these events.The most notable are Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton. Darnay is a former French aristocrat who falls victim to the indiscriminate wrath of the revolution despite his virtuous nature, and Carton is a dissipated English barrister who endeavors to redeem his ill-spent life out of his unrequited love for Darnays wife..

This new edition contains quotations from the literature of the periods covered, from the Apocrypha, Philo, Josephus and the Mishna. Three chapters have been added, two on "Stories and Sayings of the Sages of the Talmud" and one on "Rabbi Judah and his times."Other chapters have been placed in more logical sequence. Both the Chronological Tables and the Notes are fuller. A new feature has been introduced in a "theme for discussion" at the close of each chapter that may be found helpful to study circles and Chautauqua societies. This has also been introduced in the recently issued "Modern Jewish History."The author expresses his grateful indebtedness to Dr. David de Sola Pool for a most careful reading of the manuscript and for many corrections and suggestions; also to Mr. Philip Cowen for the aid rendered in collecting the illustrations. The author has availed himself of writings that have appeared on this epoch since the edition of 1904. He hopes he has succeeded in producing a more readable book.
