Kiros teodros (63 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Cambridge Days is a unique literary work that systematically combines the genres of drama and story-telling. In this book, Professor Teodros Kiros, has assembled a diverse group of actors who love to make connections with areas of knowledge and the subtle nuances of life, sometimes exhibiting a self-negating condition of paradox and at other times, joy, rapture, and elation of group dynamics. The chief characters in the book are Neil, Heidi, Adowa, Elias, Rosa, Nyerere, Aster, 'Dodo' the nameless monk, Makau, and Conrad. Most of them find themselves in Cambridge, an 'intrusive city of Juxtapositions' as the author aptly describes it. Cambridge is also a city of illusions and a city of knowledge, a venue for all the talented characters in the book. 'Cambridge Days is a powerful literary work that expresses dialectical process of thought by expanding the range of individual and group experiences, elegantly extrapolated by the actors themselves.' - Ghelawdewos Araia, Lehman College, City University of New York. 'Cambridge Days is an ode to philosophy. It is a keenly observed meditation on friendship, and on the nature of beauty, love, life and death.' - Chika Unigwe, Director, Awele Creative Trust, Brown University. 'I was incredibly impressed with the beautiful descriptive writing sustained throughout this work. The sensitive, thoughtful, and moving character portraits, and the intelligence and humor of the narrative throughout those many pages was satisfying and daring. The range of personalities portrayed are convincing. Every character seems to be genuine and full-fledged in his/her humanity. The language at its best has an arresting quality and again and again I found myself stopping to admire something originally and wonderfully said. But I was equally compelled to read on and learn more about what was going to happen to this intriguing cast of characters.' - Julie Rold, writer, Berklee College. 'Drawing from his experiences as an Ethiopian immigrant who has the good fortune to land in Cambridge, Teodros Kiros weaves narratives of his experiences with such richness that he speaks to the humanity present in all of us. In so doing, he thematizes often overlooked dimensions of life, not only in Cambridge but wherever human beings live and love.' - George Katsiaficas, Wentworth Institute of Technology.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Through a rare autobiographical act, Zara Yacob, who acquainted himself with the teachings of the Catholic Church, becomes the first self-conscious founder of a philosophical tradition in Ethiopia. Indeed, it is a mild exaggeration to assert that it is Zara Yacob who gave the continent of Africa an original autobiography, something that was until then confined to literate traditions outside Africa. His treatise is a powerful example of self-presentation, clearly and masterfully expressed in a captivating literary style.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Professor Chomsky is among the leading thinkers across the globe over the last century. CONVERSATIONS WITH NOAM CHOMSKY bolsters this assertion. The book is a deft exploration into Chomsky's views on the distinction between linguistic philosophy and the philosophy of language, consciousness, machines, the ethics of artificial intelligence in the wake of ChatGPT, the relationship between the heart and the mind, and the stakes of disciplines and canon formation for knowledge and human transformation. Language, ultimately, is the fulcrum of Chomsky's thought, as is language for intellectuals such as Ludwig Wittgenstein, Sylvia Wynter, and Ng g wa Thiong'o. Teodros Kiros, esteemed Africana philosopher and interviewer, has done us a great service in bringing the best of Chomsky's ideas in an exciting, accessible manner. Go and enjoy this book!' - Neil Roberts, Associate Dean of the Faculty, Williams College 'These conversations remind us that philosophy is a pursuit in which all humans can engage. Chomsky speaks with his characteristic directness, exploring the perennial mysteries of mind and matter, recognising the limits to human understanding. I was especially struck by his reminder, in speaking of 17th-century European philosophy, of the devastating consequences for conquered peoples of the determination that they had 'souls.' That verdict, as we come to see, was a moment in the long history of speculation on the central question of what distinguishes humans from other animals, on which reflection is here brought entertainingly down to earth in Chomsky's frequent allusions to the silent witnesses to the dialogues - his two dogs!' - Victor Wallis, professor, Liberal Arts & Sciences, Berklee College of Music.…
