Farewell, Damascus
¥73.49
Ghada Samman’s most recent novel,? Farewell, Damascus ?is set in early 1960’s Damascus – a city that now languishes in the grip of corruption and political oppression following the Baathist takeover in Syria. The book opens as Zain Khayyal, a university student and aspiring young writer, plots an early-morning escape from her house as her husband slumbers. Her mission: to get an illicit abortion, plans for which she’s divulged to no one, and to announce that she wants out of her stifling marriage. A rebel and a trail-blazer par excellence, Zain draws down the wrath of polite society and the authorities, political and religious alike, as she challenges attitudes and practices that demean rather than dignify, and a ruling regime that sucks the life out of both oppressed and oppressor. As the plot unfolds, Zain finds her way as a student to a neighbouring country which, though it grants her the freedom, respect and appreciation she had lacked in her homeland, becomes a place of anguished exile. Armed with her accustomed humour, pathos and knack for suspense, Samman fearlessly tackles issues that roil societies across the globe to this day: the stigma that attaches to the divorced woman but not the divorced man; whether to choose a life partner for love, or for social status, prestige and material security; whether abortion is a crime or a means of forestalling needless undeserved suffering; lesbian intimacy as a declaration of freedom from male abuse and tyranny; rape as an instrument of humiliation and subjugation and unconditional acceptance as healing balm.? Farewell, Damascus ?is both a paean to a beloved homeland and an ode to human dignity.
希瑟阿斯
¥29.00
人应该从事什么事业,才能过好这一生?有人说应当追求智慧;也有人主张追求名利。谁提倡的生活更值得过?又应当以谁为师?要讲清楚其中的道理,恐非易事。 苏格拉底与智术师的思想纠葛,一直是人们津津乐道的思想史公案,苏格拉底本人就曾被误认为是败坏青年的智术师而被判刑。混淆二者给热爱智慧的人造成了不小的困扰——他们不知道谁提倡的生活才是真正值得过的生活。因此,重读柏拉图,对于分辨哲人与智术师极为必要。 柏拉图的《希琵阿斯》围绕哲人苏格拉底与智术师希琵阿斯之间的两场对话,不仅正面回答了上述问题,更邀请我们深思考:什么是“美的事业”;“美的事业”是否允许人说谎话。

为什么我们需要公共哲学
¥48.30
《为什么我们需要公共哲学》集结了桑德尔早年有关“公共哲学”的珍贵论述,主要探讨了政治生活、哲学思潮、共同体、道德等公共哲学的核心问题。全书分三部分,回顾了美国从托马斯·杰斐逊以来的政治传统和争论,论述了自由主义是怎样丧失其道德与公民言论的,探讨了州营彩票、名人隐私、平权行动、辅助自杀、堕胎、干细胞研究、排污权、总统撒谎等时事热的道德与政治问题,评论了哈特曼、杜威、罗尔斯等思想家各种不同的自由主义政治理论。 乔治城大学教授迪欧尼(E.J.Dionee Jr)曾说:“无论你的政治立场是什么,只要你读过迈克尔·桑德尔这本《为什么我们需要公共哲学》,都会认它令人振奋、富有洞见且鼓舞人心。保守主义者会在这本书中发现一种他们从来不知晓的自由主义,它高度关注责任、共同体以及个体德性的重要性。对于自由主义者和民主党人来说,如果他们认识到自己的阵营需要一种参与性的公共哲学,那么会在这本书中找到他们正好需要的骨架、轮廓与基本原则。面对多半令人丧气、内容匮乏的政治辩论,桑德尔的作品无疑了一帖众人亟需且高明的解药。” 桑德尔的这些文章既面向相关领域的学者,也有助于大众读者在美国社会文化发展的脉络中理解正义、平等、自由等政治哲学基本概念,认识到个体本位的自由主义的局限性。在获取政治哲学的主要议题和论证这些知识的同时,这本书展现了哲学理论在公共生活中的应用,也一定有助于读者重新认识和思考我们当代的公共生活。
