《西方政治哲学史》（*卷）由八位杰出学者撰写，内容涵盖了从古希腊到宗教改革的政治思想和政治哲学。*章提供了西方政治思想端处的宏大背景，讨论了希腊城邦与民主思想，以及诗人、剧作家、智者和史学家的政治洞见；第二章到第六章分别聚焦于柏拉图的统一城邦、亚里士多德的*政体、西塞罗的法权国家、奥古斯丁的上帝之城与尘世之城、阿奎那的自然法与政体理论；第七章既从宏观上考察了文艺复兴时期政治思想的巨大变革，又特别讨论了马基雅维利在其中的突出地位；第八章以路德和加尔文的政治思想为主体，同时考察了宗教改革时代的神学—政治问题。全书既关注政治思想的历史语境，又凸显重要思想家的特殊贡献，体现了汉语学界在西方政治哲学史领域的*研究成果。

本书的主要内容在于矫正后人对荀子天论和性论之误解。荀子言天道，分本体与现象两部分。本体不见其事而见其功，皆知其所以成而莫知其无形，这属于天职的部分。现象即能生之本体所产生的自然现象，有其运行的规律，所谓“天行有常”，故人若应之以治则吉，应之以乱则凶，这属于人职的部分。荀子讲明于天人之分，其目的即强调人伪比天性更重要。荀子论性，认为人既有好利疾恶之性，亦有好义欲善之性。但好利疾恶不等于恶，人一味放纵好利疾恶之性，以至争夺生而辞让亡、残贼生而忠信亡，才是恶。同理，好义欲善不等于善，只有学至全尽、知类明统、深思熟虑，实际上建构出礼仪法度来，才是善。荀子批评孟子的性善说是“幽隐而无说，闭约而无解”，是因为孟子不重视后天人为之伪。因此荀子言性，只是本始材朴，无所谓善恶。故与其说荀子是性恶论者，不如说是善伪论者。

本书是一部逐段考释《精神现象学》的评注性著作，是作者多年潜心研究黑格尔哲学与德国古典哲学，吸收国内外学者《精神现象学》研究的前沿成果，并经过多轮课堂教学、同行讨论的锤炼后写作而成的。本书不满足于对国内外某家某派观的单纯介绍，而是基于自身的判断，对这些观有取有舍，并重新界定辩证法、规律、理性、精神等关键概念，对黑格尔与现代性的关系、德国古典哲学的特质与思想史地位等问题提出作者独立的见解，堪与西方学者行对话。因此，本书对于推我国黑格尔研究和德国古典哲学研究大有裨益。

Apology presents the speech of self-defence given by Socrates in his trial for impiety and corruption specifically against the charges of corrupting the young, and by not believing in the gods in whom the city believes, but in other daimonia that are novel.

Hegel este cel mai sistematic filozof, a c?rui oper? este coerent articulat? ?i sus?inut? de o dens? ?es?tur? conceptual? ?i o teleologie cu un pronun?at caracter axiologic.

The Confessions is an autobiographical work of Jean-Jacques Rousseau which initiated modern autobiography. Covering the first fifty-three years of Rousseau's life the book provides an account of the experiences that shaped his personality and ideas.

Walden follows Thoreau's experiences over the course of two years, two months, and two days in a cabin he built near Walden Pond, amidst woodland owned by his friend and mentor Ralph Waldo Emerson. In Civil Disobedience Thoreau argues that individuals should not permit governments to overrule or atrophy their consciences, and that they have a duty to avoid allowing such acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice.

The book includes an introduction entitled 'Biographical Sketch' in which fellow transcendentalist Ralph Waldo Emerson provides a description of Thoreau and nine of nine of Thoreau's essays: Natural History of Massachusetts, A Walk to Wachusett, The Landlord, A Winter Walk, The Succession of Forest Trees, Walking, Autumnal Tints, Wild Apples, and Night and Moonlight.

The Politics of Aristotle is the second part of a treatise of which the Ethics is the first part. It looks back to the Ethics as the Ethics looks forward to the Politics. For Aristotle did not separate, as we are inclined to do, the spheres of the statesman and the moralist. In the Ethics he has described the character necessary for the good life, but that life is for him essentially to be lived in society, and when in the last chapters of the Ethics he comes to the practical application of his inquiries, that finds expression not in moral exhortations addressed to the individual but in a description of the legislative opportunities of the statesman.

Aristotle's Poetics is the earliest surviving work of dramatic theory and the first extant philosophical treatise to focus on literary theory. In it, Aristotle offers an account of what he calls poetry.

We must, in the next place, investigate the subject of the dream, and first inquire to which of the faculties of the soul it presents itself, i.e. whether the affection is one which pertains to the faculty of intelligence or to that of sense-perception; for these are the only faculties within us by which we acquire knowledge.

The science which has to do with nature clearly concerns itself for the most part with bodies and magnitudes and their properties and movements, but also with the principles of this sort of substance, as many as they may be. For of things constituted by nature some are bodies and magnitudes, some possess body and magnitude, and some are principles of things which possess these. Now a continuum is that which is divisible into parts always capable of subdivision, and a body is that which is every way divisible.

Emile is a treatise on the nature of education and on the nature of man written by Jean-Jacques Rousseau, who considered it to be the best and most important of all his writings. During the French Revolution, Emile served as the inspiration for what became a new national system of education.

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion.

The Doctrine of the Mean is a text rich with symbolism and guidance to perfecting oneself. The person who follows the mean is on a path of duty and must never leave it. A superior person is cautious, a gentle teacher and shows no contempt for his or her inferiors.

On the defeat of Pharnaces and reduction of Africa, those who escaped from those battles fled to young Cn. Pompey, who had taken possession of Further Spain, while Caesar was detained in Italy in exhibiting games. Pompey began to throw himself on the protection of every state, in order the more readily to establish the means of defense against him. Accordingly, with a considerable force which had been collected, partly by entreaty, partly by force, he began to lay waste the province. Under these circumstances some states voluntarily sent him supplies, others shut the gates of their towns against him. If any of these chanced to fall into his hands by assault, although some citizen in it had deserved well of Cn. Pompey (his father), yet some cause was alleged against him on account of the greatness of his wealth, so that, he being dispatched, his fortune might become the reward of the soldiers.

While these things were going forward in Spain, Caius Trebonius, Caesar's lieutenant, who had been left to conduct the assault of Massilia, began to raise a mound, vineae, and turrets against the town, on two sides; one of which was next the harbor and docks, the other on that part where there is a passage from Gaul and Spain to that sea which forces itself up the mouth of the Rhone. For Massilia is washed almost on three sides by the sea, the remaining fourth part is the only side which has access by land.

Long ago, in the merry days of good King Arthur, there lived a ploughman and his wife. They were very poor, but would have been contented and happy if only they could have had a little child. One day, having heard of the great fame of the magician Merlin, who was living at the Court of King Arthur, the wife persuaded her husband to go and tell him of their trouble. Having arrived at the Court, the man besought Merlin with tears in his eyes to give them a child, saying that they would be quite content even though it should be no bigger than his thumb. Merlin determined to grant the request, and what was the countryman’s astonishment to find when he reached home that his wife had a son, who, wonderful to relate, was no bigger than his father’s thumb!
