Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Lest we Forget . . .Reset or Renaissance offers a real-time chronicle of events unfolding during the heated core of the Covid pandemic: the latter half of 2021, shortly after the rollout of the Covid vaccines. The book is no dull factual affair, but an impassioned critical engagement, distinctly literary in style, that offers a broader and deeper understanding of the scientific, sociopolitical, and spiritual dimensions of the Covid moment. Combining documentary poetics with rigorous analysis of the flood of Covid misinformation, this volume records one American citizen's concerted attempt to make intellectual and moral sense of a tumultuous time that shook the foundations of the world. The historic drama surrounding Covid continues to unfold. Daniel Polikoff aims to translate knowledge of the recent past into a vision of the future guided by truth rather than illusion, perspicacity rather than prejudice, and conscience rather than calumny.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Apocalypse of the Modern Mind is the second volume of Daniel Polikoff's groundbreaking Reset or Renaissance series. The first (An American Scholar's Covid Chronicle) tells us what really happened during Covid. This compelling sequel tells us--not only how--but why.The democratic impulse that emerged with such dramatic effect (first in America and later in Europe) grew out of a rich soil of ideas revolving around the most profound and far-reaching concerns: the status of divine and natural law and the relationship of the one to the other; the respective provinces of reason and of faith; the nature and destiny of humanity.It is in reviewing and recollecting that rich intellectual history that we can gain insight into the principles underlying the philosophy of democracy and (more generally) the truly liberal impulse that engendered modernity. It is that order of comprehension, as well, that enables vision of the counterfeit side of that precious coin: the deformation of liberal and democratic ideals implicit in the nefarious "dialectic of enlightenment" and its frightening consequence: the technocratic authoritarianism so dramatically displayed in the Covid era. Polikoff is concerned here not only with the dark shadows that creep in under the door of our enlightened modernity, but with radical solutions to the problems thus posed: solutions suggested by those bearers of a renewed Romantic or Transcendentalist idea of what enlightenment really means.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Originally prepared for a Pacifica Graduate Institute course on The Poetic Basis of Mind, these eight lectures stand on their own as a unique and cohesive treatment of many core concerns of the soul. As a unified whole, the lecture-essays focus upon dynamics internal to what the author (only now, years after their original composition) has come to call 'the Sophianic Cross.' That aegis includes not only psychology and art, but myth, religion, and philosophy as well, all pictured in relation to one another in the form of the cross-like configuration visible on this book's cover.…
