Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. En los tres últimos siglos, los musicólogos concluyeron arbitrariamente que la música no significa nada. Sin embargo, una teoría actual del arte requiere tener en cuenta que la subjetividad y riqueza de la música puede evocar estados de conciencia esenciales para la humanidad. La obra de Beethoven es un claro ejemplo de tales estados: no sólo nos habla de su creatividad, sino que nos revela a un gran espíritu capaz de comprender el carácter fundamental de la vida en su doble aspecto de aceptación del sufrimiento y de realización heroica. A través de sus reflexiones, Sullivan nos ofrece una nueva comprensión sobre la relación entre la música y la vida del compositor más importante de la historia: «Cuanto más vivía, más y más profundo era lo que tenía que decir? A medida que se hacía viejo, su fuerza aumentaba? Pero en algunos de sus últimos cuartetos se encuentra un pulso todavía más fuerte, aunque más sutil»: el pulso de la trascendencia. Como Beethoven, «sólo los grandes artistas y los maestros espirituales nos impresionan como personas completas». *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Gallio, or, The tyranny of science' by J. W. N. Sullivan offers a powerful and profound examination of the role and implications of scientific thought in society. This seminal work delves into the philosophy of science, presenting a compelling critique that questions the very foundations of scientific authority and its pervasive influence. Sullivan thoughtfully explores the concept of scientific 'tyranny,' analyzing how an unexamined faith in scientific methodologies and findings can shape, and potentially constrain, human understanding and ethical frameworks. The book addresses critical epistemological questions, probing into how scientific knowledge is formed, validated, and applied, and the potential pitfalls of its unchecked dominance. A cornerstone text in the critique of science, 'Gallio' illuminates the ethical implications inherent in scientific advancement and its societal impact. Sullivan's incisive analysis challenges readers to consider the broader philosophical and social dimensions of scientific enterprise, making it an essential read for anyone grappling with the profound questions surrounding science, truth, and human values. The enduring relevance of its inquiry into the nature and limits of science solidifies its place as a classic text.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Gallio: Or, the Tyranny of Science' is a compelling philosophical inquiry into the boundaries of scientific knowledge and its impact on the human condition. Written by the esteemed science writer J. W. N. Sullivan, this work addresses the growing dominance of scientific materialism and the potential 'tyranny' it exerts over other forms of human understanding. Sullivan explores the profound shifts in early twentieth-century physics and mathematics, questioning whether the scientific method is capable of providing a complete account of reality or if it leaves essential aspects of life-such as ethics and aesthetics-unaccounted for.Through a lucid and accessible prose, the author challenges the notion that science should be the ultimate authority on all human affairs. Instead, he advocates for a worldview that acknowledges the power of scientific discovery while maintaining space for the qualitative experiences that define humanity. 'Gallio: Or, the Tyranny of Science' serves as both a historical reflection on the evolution of scientific thought and a prescient warning about the risks of over-rationalization. It is an essential read for those interested in the history of science, the philosophy of knowledge, and the ongoing dialogue between the sciences and the humanities.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
