Left: author, Nigel Warburton. A Little History of Philosophy Nigel Warburton Philosophy begins with the nature of reality and how we should live. These were the concerns of Socrates, who spent his days in the ancient Athenian marketplace asking awkward questions, disconcerting the people he met by showing them how little they genuinely understood. This engaging history introduces the great thinkers in Western philosophy and explores their most compelling ideas about the world and how best to live in it. In forty brief chapters, Nigel Warburton guides us on a tour of the major ideas in the history of philosophy. He provides interesting and often quirky stories from the lives and deaths of thought-provoking philosophers from the ancients, who debated freedom and the spirit, to Peter Singer, who asks the disquieting philosophical and ethical questions that haunt our own times. Warburton not only makes philosophy accessible, he offers inspiration to think, argue, reason and ask. A Little History of Philosophy presents “A lively and eye-catching book, the grand sweep of humanity’s search for philosophical understanding written in an easy style which and invites all to join in the discussion. should have splendid appeal for a Nigel Warburton is a contemporary philosopher. As well as being young audience.”—Peter Cave, Senior Lecturer in Philosophy at the Open University, he hosts a author of Can a Robot be Human?: weekly podcast and an integrated philosophy website and he teaches a 33 Perplexing Philosophy Puzzles popular course on art and philosophy at the Tate Modern. He is the author of many very popular introductions to philosophy including Philosophy: The Basics, Thinking from A to Z and Free Speech: A Very September Short Introduction. 288 pp. 216x138mm. 40 b/w illus.

With Gombrich’s Little History, at last available in English there will be many generations of future historians who will attribute to it their lifelong passion for history—and for truth.” —Lisa Jardine, The Times “The book charms, amuses and informs superbly . In A Little History, Gombrich triumphantly proves he is as much a story teller as a professor.” —Andrew Roberts, Daily Express “The publishers tell us that Philip Pullman calls it ‘irresistible’. So it is . as an outline of how we have come to be where we are I doubt it could be bettered . a perfect birthday present for a child with an enquiring mind. I wish it had been available when I was young.”—Allan Massie, Literary Review “A delight for all ages.

How did you get from there to Little Rock, 1957? Actually, I began the two projects at roughly the same time. While in Little Rock to do a Clinton-related magazine story in 1999, I visited the museum across from Central High School. Like so many others, I well knew the picture of Elizabeth and Hazel from 1957. So I was Elizabeth and Hazel flabbergasted to see a poster there showing the two of them, now grown Two Women of Little Rock women, standing next to one another, smiling, apparently reconciled. How had that happened? It seemed inconceivable.

  • 1: Introduction
    EVELYN WAUGH STUDIES Vol. 42, No. 2 Autumn 2011 Art Criticism and Brideshead Revisited Elyse Graham 1.) Evelyn Waugh’s first literary vocation was not novelist but art critic. Upon deciding at the age of twenty-three to follow the family tradition of a life in letters, he prepared as his first work for independent publication a short pamphlet on the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, which his friend Alastair Graham commissioned for his private press in 1926. Waugh followed up two years later with a book-length biography of Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1928). The choice of subjects was natural, for Waugh’s ambitions had been in the visual arts: a prolific illustrator of undergraduate magazines, he had been famous among his college friends as a talented draftsman rather than a budding poet.[1] His first published work of any kind emerged from an adolescence steeped in visits to galleries and readings on modern artists: a short essay, “In Defence of Cubism,” appeared in the journal Drawing and Design when he was fourteen years old. As the title hints, the essay expresses infatuation with the Formalist school of criticism led by Roger Fry—loyalties that Waugh would abandon by the time he began work on the Pre-Raphaelites. Eventually, Waugh allowed his painterly identity to slip behind the persona of the writer.[2] He continued writing art criticism under other guises. When Waugh revived college memories decades later, his great semi-autobiographical novel Brideshead Revisited (1945) represented a return to his origins in the visual arts. This novel acquired early fame as the portrait of an era, but its period atmosphere relies on detailed evocation of visual culture.

    MARINA CALDAS TEIXEIRA “A PESSOA QUE SE É” Sobre as relações entre personalidade e corpo numa sexuação transexualista Tese apresentada ao Programa de Pós-Graduação em Psicologia da Faculdade de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, como requisito parcial para obtenção de título de Doutor. Área de concentração: Psicanálise Orientador: Prof. Dr. Jeferson Machado Pinto Belo Horizonte Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais 2012 2 AGRADECIMENTOS Agradeço... Ao meu orientador, Prof. Jeferson Machado Pinto, por apostar na ousadia 3 de um pensamento. Ao Prof. Jean-Claude Maleval, pela sutileza de destacar o que não se sabia. A Geneviève Morel, pelo encontro generoso e fulgurante, que determinou alcançar a outra face do transexualismo. A Nieves Soria Dafunchio, por suas decifrações dos nós de cada um. Ao meu marido, Eduardo, e ao meu filho, Miguel, por existirem e persistirem no amor. Ao meu pai, por ter me concedido o privilégio de conviver com ele, até os seus 79 anos. Um dia, nos reencontraremos nas estrelas. Aos meus irmãos de sangue e de fé, Massegio, Tiça, Bulu e Kátia, e aos meus sobrinhos, Carol e Biel, pela amizade. À minha mãe querida, pelas marcas deixadas no mais íntimo do meu ser, as quais, de alguma forma, me conduziram até aqui. RESUMO 4 Nesta tese, buscou-se elucidar alguns aspectos determinantes do fenômeno contemporâneo do transexualismo de acordo com a abordagem psicanalítica de orientação lacaniana. A lógica do fenômeno foi discernida, por um lado, em torno da abordagem lacaniana da sexuação como “opção de identificação sexuada” (nesses termos designada na lição de 14 de maio de 1974 do seminário 21) e, por outro, considerando a abordagem lacaniana do “sinthoma”.

  • A Selectively Annotated Bibliography of William S. Burroughs V. 3.0
    I ANYTHING BUT ROUTINE: A Selectively Annotated Bibliography of William S. Burroughs v. 3.0 by Brian E. C. Schottlaender The Audrey Geisel University Librarian UC San Diego Libraries 2012 II PREFACE to v. 3.0 This third edition of Anything but Routine includes an entirely new section, “Video Recordings” (Section F). Not only is Burroughs’ film work with Antony Balch and others well documented in various video formats, but a number of Burroughs’ readings over the years are likewise well documented. Section F represents a first attempt to pull these disparate materials together in one place. In addition, particular attention has been paid in this v. 3.0 to promotional materials, including: • Press Kits • Press Releases • Posters, and • Publishers’ Prospectuses. These can be found in Section G. Quantitatively, v. 3.0 includes 1,127 numbered entries (and hundreds more sub-entries), as compared to the 1,077 entries in v 2.0., an increase of almost 5%. III INTRODUCTION The bibliography of William S. Burroughs is as challenging as the man was himself. He wrote voluminously and kaleidoscopically. He rearranged, recycled, and reiterated obsessively. He produced across five decades and four continents. He was a novelist, a poet, an essayist, and a correspondent at home in all media. He never met a “little magazine” or an interviewer he wouldn’t share with. There have been a few attempts at documenting the range of Burroughs’ prodigious output over the years—some better than others. I initially conceived of this bibliography as an update of Joe Maynard’s and Barry Miles’ definitive William S.
