Sade’s Philosophical System in its Enlightenment Context
by Henry Martyn LloydThis book connects the philosophy of the Marquis de Sade—one of the most notorious, iconic, and yet poorly-understood figures within the history of European thought—with the broader themes of the Enlightenment. Rather than seeing himself as a mere pornographer, Sade understood himself as continuing the progressive tradition of French Enlightenment philosophy. Sade aspired to be a philosophe. This book uses intellectual history and the history of philosophy to reconstruct Sade’s philosophical ‘system’ and its historical context. Within the period’s discourse of sensibility Sade draws on the philosophical and the literary to form a relatively sophisticated ‘system’ which he deploys to critically engage with the two major strands of eighteenth-century ethical theory: the moral sense and natural law traditions. This work is of interest to: ‘Continental’ Philosophy, Critical Theory, French Studies, the History of Eighteenth-Century Philosophy, Literary Studies, the History of Moral Philosophy, and Enlightenment Studies.
Sadguru: सद्गुरु
by Arundhathi Subramaniamयह पुस्तक सद्गुरु की प्रेरणागाथा है- वह असाधारण दिव्यपुरुष; जो युवावस्था में ही ईश्वर को जानने के लिए तत्पर हो उठे; मोटरसाइकिलों का शौकीन; जो जीवन के रहस्य खोजने के लिए उद्यत हो उठे; संशयवादी होने के बावजूद आध्यात्मिक सत्पुरुष बन गए। बाल्यकाल में जग्गी वासुदेव (जो अब सद्गुरु के नाम से वियात हैं) उच्छृंखल स्वभाव के थे; कक्षा छोड़कर भाग जाना; हुड़दंग करना; चुहलबाजी करना उनकी प्रकृति में था; बाद में उन्हें मोटरसाइकिल और रेसिंग गाडि़यों का शौक हो गया। उनकी आध्यात्मिक यात्रा में इस तेजी और तत्परता को सहज ही अनुभव किया जा सकता है। ऐतिहासिक ‘ध्यानलिंग’ की स्थापना किसी जिद्दी; हठधर्मी व्यति के द्वारा ही किया जाना संभव था; और सद्गुरु ने वह कर दिखाया। सद्गुरु का विश्वास है कि आस्था; आध्यात्मिकता और विज्ञान एक-दूसरे से जुडे़ हैं। इनके समन्वय मात्र से ही मानव का कल्याण होगा; सद्गुणों के विकास के लिए प्रत्येक व्यति को सतत सक्रिय होना होगा। सद्गुरु के साथ लंबी बातचीत और उनके अनुयायियों तथा शिष्यों के साथ साक्षात्कारों के आधार पर अरुंधती सुब्रह्मण्यम द्वारा तैयार की गई यह पुस्तक एक जीवंत किंवदंती ‘सद्गुरु’ का जीवनवृ प्रस्तुत करती है। सद्गुरु की त्वरित मेधा; अद्भुत वाक्पटुता और आधुनिक शद-संपदा से सज्जित यह पुस्तक आपके आध्यात्मिक उन्नयन का मार्ग प्रशस्त करेगी और आपके जीवन की दिशा बदल देगी।
Sadhana
by Rabindranath TagoreAll the great utterances of man have to be judged not by the letter but by the spirit-- the spirit which unfolds itself with the growth of life in history. We get to know the real meaning of Christianity by observing its living aspect at the present moment-- however different that may be, even in important respects, from the Christianity of earlier periods. For western scholars the great religious scriptures of India seem to possess merely a retrospective archaeological interest; but to us they are of living importance, and we cannot help thinking that they lose their significance when exhibited in labelled cases-- mummied specimens of human thought and aspiration, preserved for all time in the wrappings of erudition. The meaning of the living words that come out of the experiences of great hearts can never be exhausted by any one system of logical interpretation. They have to be endlessly explained by the commentaries of individual lives, and they gain an added mystery in each new revelation.
Sage Leadership: Taoist Wisdom to Overcome Conflict and Create a Just World
by Thomas ClearyFor every would-be leader, this acclaimed Taoist classic offers timeless insights for building a better worldThe Taoist sages of ancient China have long been lauded for their transformative teachings on the art of harmonious living, community organization, and cultivating the common good. Along with Sun Tzu&’s Art of War, the Huainanzi, here brought to life in English by preeminent translator Thomas Cleary, represents an essential window into this long and cherished tradition. Yet, whereas the Art of War focuses on cunning strategy to quickly resolve conflict, the Huainanzi speaks to the organization of healthy societies, the management of complex group dynamics, and how to promote the highest ideals of harmony, freedom, adaptability, and sustainability in our world. With incisive teachings on the challenges and opportunities of leadership at all levels—from small-scale organizational management to political statecraft—its time-tested wisdom lights the way for any endeavor in business, management, politics, government, and everyday life.
Sages, Saints & Kings of Ancient India
by Swami B. B. Tirtha MaharajaThe people of ancient times were inclined to give their attention not only to the external world of inert matter, but also to the world within, the vital world of consciousness. Those sages who understood the importance of such contemplation comprise the prime subject matter of this book. Especially in the troubled world of today, it is by the conscientious study of their activities and teachings that we may come to understand the Absolute Truth, or the Ultimate Reality, and attain lasting peace and joy. The pastimes of such great, sagely personalities have been narrated in detail in an ancient collection of works known as the Puranas, as well as in timeless epics such as the Mahabharata, Ramayana, and other Vedic literatures. In this book, Srila Bhakti Ballabha Tirtha Goswami Maharaja, a bona fide self-realized representative of the bhakti (devotional) lineage, has narrated important episodes and addressed salient points from these literatures. Thus, the avid reader may understand their inner meaning and apply this knowledge to their search for real happiness. Ultimately, such unadulterated, permanent happiness, according to the devotional tradition, is realized as the attainment of pure love of God, Sri Krishna.

Sailing the Wine-Dark Sea: Why the Greeks Matter (The Hinges of History)
by Thomas CahillIn Sailing the Wine-Dark Sea, his fourth volume to explore "the hinges of history," Thomas Cahill escorts the reader on another entertaining--and historically unassailable--journey through the landmarks of art and bloodshed that defined Greek culture nearly three millennia ago.In the city-states of Athens and Sparta and throughout the Greek islands, honors could be won in making love and war, and lives were rife with contradictions. By developing the alphabet, the Greeks empowered the reader, demystified experience, and opened the way for civil discussion and experimentation--yet they kept slaves. The glorious verses of the Iliad recount a conflict in which rage and outrage spur men to action and suggest that their "bellicose society of gleaming metals and rattling weapons" is not so very distant from more recent campaigns of "shock and awe." And, centuries before Zorba, Greece was a land where music, dance, and freely flowing wine were essential to the high life. Granting equal time to the sacred and the profane, Cahill rivets our attention to the legacies of an ancient and enduring worldview.From the Trade Paperback edition.

Saint Augustine: A Life
by Garry WillsPulitzer Prize winner Garry Wills brings the same fresh scholarship, lively prose, and critical appreciation that characterize his well-known books on religion and American history to this outstanding biography of one of the most influential Christian philosophers. <P><P> Saint Augustine follows its subject from his youth in fourth-century Africa to his conversion and subsequent development as a theologian. It challenges the widely held misconceptions about Augustine's sexual excesses and shows how, in embracing classical philosophy, Augustine managed to enlist "pagan authors" in the defense of Christianity. The result is a biography that makes a spiritual ancestor feel like our contemporary.
Saint Joan of New York: A Novel About God and String Theory (Science and Fiction)
by Mark AlpertSAINT JOAN OF NEW YORK is a novel about a math prodigy who becomes obsessed with discovering the Theory of Everything. Joan Cooper, a 17-year-old genius traumatized by the death of her older sister, tries to rebuild her shattered world by studying string theory and the efforts to unify the laws of physics.

Joan must enter the battle between science and religion, fighting for her sanity and a new understanding of the cosmos.
Saint Paul
by Pier Paolo PasoliniPresented here for the first time in English is a remarkable screenplay about the apostle Paul by Pier Paolo Pasolini, legendary filmmaker, novelist, poet, and radical intellectual activist. Written between the appearance of his renowned film Teorema and the shocking, controversial Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom, St Paul was deemed too risky for investors. At once a political intervention and cinematic breakthrough, the script forces a revolutionary transformation on the contemporary legacy of Paul. In Pasolini's kaleidoscope, we encounter fascistic movements, resistance fighters, and faltering revolutions, each of which reflects on aspects of the Pauline teachings. From Jerusalem to Wall Street and Greenwich Village, from the rise of SS troops to the death of Martin Luther King, Jr, here--as Alain Badiou writes in the foreword--'Paul's text crosses all these circumstances intact, as if it had foreseen them all'. This is a key addition to the growing debate around St Paul and to the proliferation of literature centred on the current turn to religion in philosophy and critical theory, which embraces contemporary figures such as Alain Badiou, Slavoj i ek and Giorgio Agamben.From the Hardcover edition.
Saint Paul and the Education Encounter: Lessons on Love, Event and Change
by Michael VictoryThis book connects the Biblical Paul’s work as an educator with the revival of interest in Paul’s impact on contemporary social and cultural experience, sometimes referred to as ‘Paul’s new moment’. It presents Paul's letters as being the testament of an educator who brought a radical emancipatory approach to the communities with whom he lived and worked. The book draws on history, philosophy, New Testament studies, and social theory to present the case for Paul as the initiator of a pedagogy of the event. This book explores the concept of a pedagogy of the event, and provides a case study of success in its implementation.
Saint Silouan the Athonite
by Saint SophronyIn the autumn of 1892 a young Russian peasant named Simeon from the province of Tambov was drawn to that ancient repository of Orthodox spirituality, Mt Athos. He had done his military service and now came to the Russian Monastery of St Panteleimon to embark on long years of spiritual combat lasting until his death in 1938. Although he was unlearned and ignorant in the ordinary sense, tireless inner strivings gave him authentic personal experience of God identical to that of many of the ancient Desert Fathers. The first part of this book is a remarkable account of St Silouan's life, personality and teaching by his spiritual disciple Saint Sophrony. St Sophrony went to Mt Athos in 1925 and there at the Monastery of St Panteleimon became an assistant to Staretz Silouan. Part two comprises the writings of Silouan, originally penciled in laborious, unformed characters on odd scraps of paper. The Lord said, "Every one that is of the truth hears my voice" (John 18:37) and according to St Sophrony, "these words are applicable to Staretz Silouan's notes ... [That] whoever has received from God the mind and wisdom to know him will be aware in the Staretz' words of the breath of the Holy Spirit." In 1988, Staretz Silouan was placed in the canon of saints by the Ecumenical Patriarchate. This is a new edition that reflects the canonization of the author to sainthood.
Saintly Influence: Edith Wyschogrod and the Possibilities of Philosophy of Religion (Perspectives in Continental Philosophy)
by John D. CaputoSince the publication of her first book, Emmanuel Levinas: The Problem of Ethical Metaphysics, in 1974-the first book about Levinas published in English-Edith Wyschogrod has been at the forefront of the fields of Continental philosophy and philosophy of religion. Her work has crossed many disciplinary boundaries, making peregrinations from phenomenology and moral philosophy to historiography, the history of religions (both Western and non-Western), aesthetics, and the philosophy of biology. In all of these discourses, she has sought to cultivate an awareness of how the self is situated and influenced, as well as the ways in which a self can influence others.In this volume, twelve scholars examine and display the influence of Wyschogrod's work in essays that take up the thematics of influence in a variety of contexts: Christian theology, the saintly behavior of the villagers of Le Chambon sur Lignon, the texts of the medieval Jewish mystic Abraham Abulafia, the philosophies of Levinas, Derrida, and Benjamin, the practice of intellectual history, the cultural memory of the New Testament, and pedagogy.In response, Wyschogrod shows how her interlocutors have brought to light her multiple authorial personae and have thus marked the ambiguity of selfhood, its position at the nexus of being influenced by and influencing others.
Saints in Politics: The 'Clapham Sect' and the Growth of Freedom
by Enrest HowseThis book gives a picture of an important religious reform group in action during the period of the French Revolution, Napoleon, and the Industrial Revolution. In this period of injustice and misery the British ruling classes, frightened by the excesses of the French Revolution, determined, at a time when economic life was changing at a rate unequalled for centuries, that existing laws and institutions should not change. And yet from this time came the moral, philanthropic, and religious ideas which transformed later England and resulted in the abolition of the slave trade, educational reforms in India, emancipation of Negroes in the British possessions, popular education and the growth of Sunday schools in England, reform of the whole penal and judicial system, industrial and parliamentary reform, and a new spirit of religious tolerance and philanthropy. The moving force in human progress at this epoch was a "brotherhood of Christian politicians" lampooned in Parliament, during their lifetime, as "the Saints" and remembered in history as "The Clapham Sect," led by Wilberforce. Dr. Howse brings together for the first time in this book material on all the activities of the Sect. He gives us sketches of members of the Set, their life as a group at home, and in the midst of their campaigns, where novel methods and ceaseless labour brought results out of all proportion to the size of the group.
Saints: Faith without Borders (A\critical Inquiry Book Ser.)
by Francoise Meltzer and Jas ElsnerWhile the modern world has largely dismissed the figure of the saint as a throwback, we remain fascinated by excess, marginality, transgression, and porous subjectivity—categories that define the saint. In this collection, Françoise Meltzer and Jas Elsner bring together top scholars from across the humanities to reconsider our denial of saintliness and examine how modernity returns to the lure of saintly grace, energy, and charisma.Addressing such problems as how saints are made, the use of saints by political and secular orders, and how holiness is personified, Saints takes us on a photo tour of Graceland and the cult of Elvis and explores the changing political takes on Joan of Arc in France. It shows us the self-fashioning of culture through the reevaluation of saints in late-antique Judaism and Counter-Reformation Rome, and it questions the political intent of underlying claims to spiritual attainment of a Muslim sheikh in Morocco and of Sephardism in Israel. Populated with the likes of Francis of Assisi, Teresa of Avila, and Padre Pio, this book is a fascinating inquiry into the status of saints in the modern world.
Sakuteiki
by Marc P. Keane Jiro TakeiThe Sakuteiki, or "Records of Garden Making," was written nearly one thousand years ago. It is the oldest existing text on Japanese gardening-or any kind of gardening—in the world. In this edition of the Sakuteiki the authors provide both an English-language translation of this classic work and an introduction to the cultural and historical context that led to the development of Japanese gardening.
Sala de espera
by José Luis SampedroLa obra póstuma de José Luis Sampedro. «La muerte me lleva de la mano, pero se está portando bien porque me está dejando pensar.» Los ríos como metáfora de la vida fueron una constante en la obra de Sampedro, hasta el punto de trascender la literatura y hacerse realidad cuando conoció a Olga Lucas. Fue su historia de amor lo que les inspiró a escribir sobre sus diez primeros años de vida juntos. Lo hacían cada uno por su lado y a hurtadillas para preservar la sorpresa cuando llegara el momento de compartirlos. Como si se tratara de un mensaje dentro de una botella, Olga encontró el texto de José Luis tras su fallecimiento y decidió unirlo al suyo. El resultado: este relato conmovedor de dos vidas diametralmente distintas, unidas para siempre a orillas del río Jalón. La segunda parte, «Sala de Espera», recoge el sentimiento de rebelión y lúcida rabia con el que vivió los últimos años. A caballo entre la autobiografía y el ensayo, el libro incluye además material inédito de su archivo personal -fotografías, anotaciones manuscritas- que hacen de él un documento de excepcional valor y muestran la emoción que Sampedro ponía a todo lo que hacía. La obra póstuma de uno de nuestros escritores más añorados, un hombre íntegro que estuvo pensando, leyendo y afanándose en escribir hasta el último suspiro. La crítica ha dicho...«Es aquí donde el escritor esboza "sus verdades", donde se replantea el sentido último de la nueva barbarie, donde busca aportar algo propio al proceso de desescombro que vivimos.»Elsa Fernández-Santos, El País
Salazar: A Political Biography (Routledge Studies in Fascism and the Far Right)
by Filipe Ribeiro de MenesesSalazar: A Political Biography is the definitive biography of the longstanding Portuguese dictator. António de Oliveira Salazar entered the government of Portugal when Herbert Hoover was president and ended his political career at the end of the Johnson administration. He remained in power for forty years (1928–1968), one of the longest tenures in modern history. Unlike the other ‘great dictators’ of the twentieth century, Salazar, an academic, immersed himself in the minutiae of government and administration, maintaining a prodigious work rate until illness forced his retirement. He successfully managed his country’s finances despite the impact of the Great Depression, imposing a harsh policy of austerity. He then preserved Portugal’s neutrality during the Second World War, ultimately favouring Great Britain and the United States. But Salazar was at heart an extremely conservative, even reactionary statesman. He relied on secrecy and a police state to maintain the order which, he believed, was necessary to control progress. Rejecting the anti-colonialist movements in Asia and Africa, he plunged Portugal into a series of wars in Africa it could ill afford. Fully revised and updated throughout, this remains the authoritative biography of a key Portuguese political leader who was a significant presence in twentieth-century politics. This book will be of interest to historians of the far right, international diplomacy and Portugal.
Salience: A Philosophical Inquiry
by Sophie ArcherSalience is both central to human life and relatively underexplored as a philosophical topic. Whether it bothers you that the picture on your wall isn’t straight, whose advice you should take, or whether you notice the homeless person at your feet as you squeeze your way down the street: these are all a function of salience. Salience is clearly of significance for a broad range of philosophical sub-disciplines, but what precisely is it? This collection addresses this neglected question by considering the role of salience in a wide variety of areas: epistemology; philosophy of perception; philosophy of psychology; practical reason; feminist philosophy; and aesthetics. All 13 chapters have been specially commissioned for this volume, and are written by an international team of leading names in the field. Salience: A Philosophical Inquiry is essential reading for students and researchers in epistemology, philosophy of mind and psychology, ethics, and metaphysics. It will also be of interest to those in related subjects such as politics, law, and sociology.
Sallust (Sather Classical Lectures #33)
by Ronald SymeWith this classic book, Sir Ronald Syme became the first historian of the twentieth century to place Sallust—whom Tacitus called the most brilliant Roman historian—in his social, political, and literary context. Scholars had considered Sallust to be a mere political hack or pamphleteer, but Syme's text makes important connections between the politics of the Republic and the literary achievement of the author to show Sallust as a historian unbiased by partisanship. In a new foreword, Ronald Mellor delivers one of the most thorough biographical essays of Sir Ronald Syme in English. He both places the book in the context of Syme's other works and details the progression of Sallustian studies since and as a result of Syme's work.
Salome's Modernity: Oscar Wilde and the Aesthetics of Transgression
by Petra Dierkes-Thrun"Salome's Modernityis a first-class piece of scholarship---at once learned, sharply focused, and beautifully, indeed, entertainingly written. Above all, it is a significant contribution to modernist studies, for it takes a number of themes that appear in the various writings about Salome to show precisely how the various authors, performers and film-makers utilized and rethought these themes for their own times. " ---Herbert S. Lindenberger, Stanford University "Salome's Modernityis intellectually powerful, truly informative, and engagingly written. No other book rivals it in scope when it comes to placing Wilde's play in a cultural and literary genealogy that links memorable works of poetry, fiction, drama, opera, and film. " ---Joseph Bristow, UCLA Oscar Wilde's 1891 symbolist tragedy Salomé has had a rich afterlife in literature, opera, dance, film, and popular culture. Salome's Modernity: Oscar Wilde and the Aesthetics of Transgressionis the first comprehensive scholarly exploration of that extraordinary resonance that persists to the present. Petra Dierkes-Thrun positions Wilde as a founding figure of modernism and Salomé as a key text in modern culture's preoccupation with erotic and aesthetic transgression, arguing that Wilde's Salomé marks a major turning point from a dominant traditional cultural, moral, and religious outlook to a utopian aesthetic of erotic and artistic transgression. Wilde and Salomé are seen to represent a bridge linking the philosophical and artistic projects of writers such as Mallarmé, Pater, and Nietzsche to modernist and postmodernist literature and philosophy and our contemporary culture. Dierkes-Thrun addresses subsequent representations of Salome in a wide range of artistic productions of both high and popular culture through the works of Richard Strauss, Maud Allan, Alla Nazimova, Ken Russell, Suri Krishnamma, Robert Altman, Tom Robbins, and Nick Cave, among others.

Saltwater Buddha
by Jaimal YogisFed up with teenage life in the suburbs, Jaimal Yogis ran off to Hawaii with little more than a copy of Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha and enough cash for a surfboard. His journey is a coming-of-age saga that takes him from communes to monasteries, from the warm Pacific to the icy New York shore. Equal parts spiritual memoir and surfer's tale, this is a chronicle of finding meditative focus in the barrel of a wave and eternal truth in the great salty blue.
Salvation and Sovereignty: A Molinist Approach
by Kenneth KeathleyIn Salvation and Sovereignty, Kenneth Keathley asks, “What shall a Christian do who is convinced of certain central tenets of Calvinism but not its corollaries?” He then writes, “I see salvation as a sovereign work of grace but suspect that the usual Calvinist understanding of sovereignty (that God is the cause of all things) is not sustained by the biblical witness as a whole.” <p><p>Aiming to resolve this matter, the author argues that just three of Calvinism’s five TULIP points can be defended scripturally and instead builds on the ROSES acronym first presented by Timothy George (Radical depravity, Overcoming grace, Sovereign election, Eternal life, Singular redemption). In relation, Keathley looks at salvation and sovereignty through the lens of Molinism, a doctrine named after Luis Molina (1535-1600) that is based on a strong notion of God’s control and an equally firm affirmation of human freedom.
Samajik Karar: सामाजिक करार
by Vasant Bhagwant Karnikझ्यां-झ्याक रूसो लिखित (SOCIAL CONTRACT) या ग्रंथाचा मराठी अनुवाद “सामाजिक करार” हे पुस्तक धार्मिक आणि भौतिक दोन्ही सत्ताधाऱ्यांना अधिक आक्षेपार्ह वाटले. सामाजिक कराराची कल्पना मान्य केली म्हणजे राजांच्या दैवी अधिकाराला स्थानच उरत नाही; राजसत्तेचा नैतिक पाया नष्ट होतो. म्हणून फ्रेंच राज्यकर्त्यांना ते पुस्तक फार भीतीदायक वाटले. पुस्तकाच्या वाचनामुळे लोकांच्या मनात क्रांतीच्या कल्पना स्फुरतील आणि बंडाचा वणवा पेटेल अशी त्यांना धास्ती वाटली. फ्रेंच राज्यकर्त्यांची ही धास्ती खोटी ठरली नाही. १७८९ साली फ्रेंच राज्यक्रांतीचा वडवानल पेटला तेव्हा क्रांतिकारकांच्या तोंडी होते ते रूसाचे नाव आणि त्यांची प्रेरकशक्ती होती ती त्याच्या सामाजिक करार या पुस्तकातील तत्त्वे व घोषणा! फ्रेंच राज्यक्रांतीच पाया जो घातला तो बुद्धिवादी विद्वानांनी घडवून आणलेल्या वैचारिक क्रांतीने; परंतु प्रत्यक्ष क्रांतीच्या दिवसात क्रांतिकारकांच्या मनावर अधिक पगडा होता तो रूसोच्या विचारांचा आणि त्याच्या मनोवृत्तीचा. क्रांतीच्या संगराच्या वेळी विवेकशील शुद्ध बुद्धीपेक्षा लोकांना हवी असते भावनोत्कट क्रियाशीलता. रूसोची मदार होती बुद्धीपेक्षा भावनेवर. त्यामुळे राज्यक्रांतीवर त्याचा अधिक प्रभाव पडला आणि क्रांतीचा अग्रदूत म्हणून त्याची जगभर ख्याती झाली.
