Paperback. Zustand: Good. John of Salisbury (c. 1115-1180) was the foremost political theorist of his age. He was trained in scholastic theology and philosophy at Paris, and his writings are invaluable for summarizing many of the metaphysical speculations of his time. The Policraticus is his main work, and is regarded as the first complete work of political theory to be written in the Latin Middle Ages. Cary Nederman's new edition and translation, currently the only version available in English, is primarily aimed at undergraduate students of the history of political thought and medieval history. His new translation shows how important this text is in understanding the mores, forms of conduct and beliefs of the most powerful and learned segments of twelfth century Western Europe.…

Pamphlet. [2], 9 p. (closely set.in quarto format); 20.5 cm. `It is hard, at least on first impressions, to avoid a feeling of disappointment at the apparent contrast between Isaiah, Amos, Jeremiah and other OT giants and the showing put up by the christian prophets strictly so-called. This is, of course, partly because we have, under the influence of 19th century criticism, a very inflated idea of what the OT prophets were actually like as human figures. We forget too how very odd some of the prohets were -- quite as odd as anything thrown up by African enthusi- astic sects in our own time: Ezekiel lying on his side for months on end or breaking out of his own house with pots and pans tied all over him, Isaiah walking naked for three years. And the biblical prophets were only a tiny minority.most prophets prophesied for money, like fortune-tellers. An objective view might see much less difference than we usually do between the prophets of the two covenants.' (6) -- `the OT prophets went wrong. notably in two respects. First, though they correctly saw the nation as sinful and worthy of judgment, they mostly saw that judgment as coming much sooner than in fact it did. The second point at which the OT prophets went astray was,as we saw,then they came to predict happiness for the righteous. At the individual level, which is where it really matters, there is no justice.' (7 f.) -- We can never stop at righteousness because we find that the doing of it inevitably involves us in something more, forgiveness, sacrificial love, suffering, the surrender of those rights which under righteousness are our own. Justice is possible only among men of goodwill.' Good, stapled, in orig. red on tan wrapper.…

Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. El Prof. José Palacios ofrece a los medievalistas la versión al castellano, desde el texto latino, de dos nuevos libros (V y VI) del Policraticus de Juan de Salisbury, una de las obras cumbres de la Edad Media europea, de las que ?han cambiado el mundo? (Dave Koper). Son dos nuevos libros de los ocho que la componen y que siguen a los cuatro ya publicados por José Palacios, profesor de la Universidad de Málaga. Con un latín elegante, el autor del Policraticus desarrolla una teoría política de altos vuelos, en la que aparece la justicia como base del estado de derecho, de la paz y de la libertad. La sociedad política es, según Plutarco, reflejo del cuerpo humano y de sus funciones. La cabeza es el príncipe, los ciudadanos son los miembros. La milicia es una actividad necesaria para la convivencia en la concordia y freno de la ambición. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Written in 1159 and addressed to Thomas Becket, John of Salisbury's The Metalogicon presents -- and defends -- a thorough study of the liberal arts of grammar, logic, and rhetoric. The very name "Metalogicon", a coinage by the author, brings together the Greek meta (on behalf of) and logicon (logic or logical studies). Thus, in naming his text, he also explained it. With this lucid treatise on education, John of Salisbury urges a thorough grounding in the arts of words (oral and written) and reasoning, as these topics are addressed in grammar and logic. Written more than nine hundred years ago, The Metalogicon still possesses an invigorating originality that invites readers to refresh themselves at the sources of Western learning.…
