Being Present

Anila Trinlé

Being Present

The connection of Buddhism with the activity of helping people who are suffering brings a new perspective. Developing greater awareness of our reality, clarifying our motivation, and increasing our kindness and discernment—there are so many keys to successfully being present with ourselves and others. Being present is a living process that reveals us to ourselves and, in so doing, allows us to connect with others in a new way. This capacity has implications in our daily lives and our personal,...

Aurelius Augustinus

Bekenntnisse-Confessiones

Durch die grundsätzlichen Erwägungen über das Wesen des Menschen sind die Bekenntnisse des heiligen Augustinus mehr als nur eine Biographie – sie gelten vielmehr als die erste Autobiographie der Literatur. Die Bekenntnisse beschreiben introspektiv die Phasen der geistigen Entwicklung Augustins. Er analysiert sein frühes Leben, seine ständige Suche nach Wahrheit und seine Bekehrung. Wie Augustinus später bemerkt, hat der Titel zwei Bedeutungen: Confession im Sinne von «Schuldbekenntnis» und...

Beyond Objectivism and Relativism

Richard J. Bernstein

Beyond Objectivism and Relativism

Drawing freely and expertly from Continental and analytic traditions, Richard Bernstein examines a number of debates and controversies exemplified in the works of Gadamer, Habermas, Rorty, and Arendt. He argues that a «new conversation» is emerging about human rationality—a new understanding that emphasizes its practical character and has important ramifications both for thought and action.

Karol Berger

Each of the five volumes in the Stone Art Theory Institutes series, and the seminars on which they are based, brings together a range of scholars who are not always directly familiar with one another’s work. The outcome of each of these convergences is an extensive and “unpredictable conversation” on knotty and provocative issues about art. This fourth volume in the series, Beyond the Aesthetic and the Anti-Aesthetic , focuses on questions revolving around the...
