Il Palazzo Bongiorno di Gangi è una "dimora filosofale", perché i suoi affreschi contengono, come un prezioso monile, insegnamenti riconducibili al simbolismo della "Tabula Smaragdina Hermetis", con perle di dottrina teologica agostiniana. La "Ragione", che è la regina della nostra mente, reggendo le briglie di essa, "vince e assoggetta gli avidi sensi", i quali "trasmutano" per opera della "Grazia" (lo Spirito), che si serve della "Ragione" come esca. In quanto eccitatrice del "Decoro", con la sua forza, la "Ragione" sospinge le menti offuscate dalla maligna adombrazione nella chiara luce". Ciò avviene secondo "Giustizia" e produce "Pace" sociale. A governare è il "Calice" della "Clementia Mundi", grazie al quale si realizzano i processi mercuriali, solari e lunari, di "trasmutazione".

“A little masterpiece of originality and clarity.”—George Steiner “A necessary book.”—Roberto Saviano “A wonderful little book that will delight you.”—François Busnel International Best Seller / Now in English for the First Time In this thought-provoking and extremely timely work, Nuccio Ordine convincingly argues for the utility of useless knowledge and against the contemporary fixation on utilitarianism—for the fundamental importance of the liberal arts and against the damage caused by their neglect. Inspired by the reflections of great philosophers and writers (e.g., Plato, Dante, Montaigne, Shakespeare, Borges, and Calvino), Ordine reveals how the obsession for material goods and the cult of utility ultimately wither the spirit, jeopardizing not only schools and universities, art, and creativity, but also our most fundamental values—human dignity, love, and truth. Also included is Abraham Flexner’s 1939 essay “The Usefulness of Useless Knowledge,” which originally prompted Ordine to write this book. Flexner—a founder and the first director of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton—offers an impassioned defense of curiosity-driven research and learning.

Cicero and Boethius did more than anyone else to transmit the insights of Greek philosophy to the Latin culture of Western Europe which has played so influential a part in our civilisation to this day. Cicero's treatise On Fate, though surviving only in a fragmentary and mutilated state, records contributions to the discussion of a central philosophical issue, that of free will and determinism, which are comparable in importance to those of twentieth-century philosophers and indeed sometimes anticipate them. Study of the treatise has been hindered by the lack of a combined Latin text and English translation based on a clear understanding of the arguments; Dr Sharples' text is intended to meet this need. The last book of Boethius' Consolation is linked with Cicero's treatise by its theme, the relation of divine foreknowledge to human freedom. Text with translation and commentary. (Aris and Phillips 1992)

Does Christianity Cause War written by David Martin and has been published by Regent College Publishing this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2006 with Social Science categories.
This bold work challenges two popular conceptions of religion--as either the instigator of conflict or the propagator of peace. Martin, one of the world's leading sociologists of religion, rejects both as oversimplifications, and draws on case studies from Britain, the US, Latin American, and Romania to argue for a more nuanced, complex approach that takes account of the role of national and ethnic identity.
