Questo libro sarà per voi una rivelazione perché vi troverete tutto quello che non avete mai letto nei testi di botanica o di giardinaggio, tutto quello che non avete mai saputo e nemmeno sospettato dei semi, delle erbe, dei fiori, degli ortaggi, dei frutti, degli alberi, di cui lautore racconta le origini leggendarie, rievocando e riciclando in modo comprensibile a tutti, episodi della mitologia classica, credenze religiose del lontano passato, testi letterari e tradizioni dei popoli antichi. Scoprirete così che i primi ad essere avvinti come ledera furono i pirati etruschi, che laroma del caffè fu apprezzato la prima volta non dagli uomini ma dalle capre, che i pascià ebbero lidea dellharem osservando gli amori delle palme da datteri, e che Maratona dove Milziade sconfisse i Persiani in una memorabile battaglia si chiamava così perché era un campo di finocchi. Scoprirete che nella storia antica delle piante, non è il verde il colore predominante. Tuttaltro: a volte si tratta di una storia rosa, o anche di un romanzo giallo quando non si tratta di una vicenda a luci rosse!

One of the most popular and widely read books of the Middle Ages, "Physiologus "contains allegories of beasts, stones, and trees both real and imaginary, infused by their anonymous author with the spirit of Christian moral and mystical teaching.a Accompanied by an introduction that explains the origins, history, and literary value of this curious text, this volume also reproduces twenty woodcuts from the 1587 version. Originally composed in the fourth century in Greek, and translated into dozens of versions through the centuries, "Physiologus "will delight readers with its ancient tales of ant-lions, centaurs, and hedgehogsOCoand their allegorical significance. OC An elegant little book . . . still diverting to look at today. . . . The woodcuts reproduced from the 1587 Rome edition are alone worth the price of the book.OCOOCoRaymond A.

The Imperative Of Responsibility written by Hans Jonas and has been published by University of Chicago Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1984 with Philosophy categories.
Hans Jonas here rethinks the foundations of ethics in light of the awesome transformations wrought by modern technology: the threat of nuclear war, ecological ravage, genetic engineering, and the like. Though informed by a deep reverence for human life, Jonas's ethics is grounded not in religion but in metaphysics, in a secular doctrine that makes explicit man's duties toward himself, his posterity, and the environment. Jonas offers an assessment of practical goals under present circumstances, ending with a critique of modern utopianism.

In the West ideas about Chinese medicine are commonly associated with traditional therapies and ancient practices which have survived, unchanging, since time immemorial. Originally published in 2001, this volume, edited by Elizabeth Hsu, demonstrates that this is far from the reality. In a series of pioneering case-studies, twelve contributors, from a range of disciplines, explore the history of Chinese medicine and the transformations that have taken place from the fourth century BC onwards. Topics of discussion cover diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, pharmacotherapy, the creation of new genres of medical writing and schools of doctrine. This interdisciplinary volume will be of value to anyone with an interest in the various aspects of Chinese medicine.

The passions have long been condemned as a creator of disturbance and purveyor of the temporary loss of reason, but as Remo Bodei argues in Geometry of the Passions, we must abandon the perception that order and disorder are in a constant state of collision. By means of a theoretical and historical analysis, Bodei interprets the relationship between passion and reason as a conflict between two complementary logics. Geometry of the Passions investigates the paradoxical conflict-collaboration between passions and reason, and between individual and political projects. Tracing the roles passion and reason have played throughout history, including in the political agendas of Descartes, Hobbes, and the French Jacobins, Geometry of the Passions reveals how passion and reason may be used as a vehicle for affirmation rather than self-enslavement.
