Living according to Nature. Volume Two: Nature and Culture: Value Inquiry Book Series / Central European Value Studies, cartea 402

Eli Kramer, Ilona Błocian, Samuel Maruszewski
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 19 dec 2024
This edited collection is the second of two volumes offering critical philosophical and interdisciplinary perspectives on contemporary and historic accounts of living in accordance with the broad natural world as at the center of a good and wise life. It also explores the meaning and idea of nature in these different perspectives as it relates to and is distinguished from cultural life. It builds on the work of Pierre Hadot and others on the connection that philosophers, mystics, scholars, and others (ancient and modern) have seen between nature (as articulated in physics, metaphysics, ontologies, ecologies, biologies, and evolutionary theories) and forms of self-communal cultivation.
