  • Aristotle

  • 亙學:人類史上最偉大的書。

    如何:追求並擁享(優樂)美好的人生和成就生命的(高度)意義。

    by 仁者頌 ...
    以下我們就針對各章(約略即是亙學一書的目錄),以概述的方式,說明亙學之所以會是人類史上最偉大的主要原因:第一章:A.定義人類一生的核心追求目標為:人生的目的在於追求(優樂)美好的人生;以及,生命的意義在於定義自我,並在人生的各個階段中,一再地超越自我。B.設定偉大哲思的標準為:閱讀量(閱讀性)、人類之人我與人生的實用性、亙道性。C.我們找出西方哲學史和東方思想史中,堪稱是最偉大或最知名的十多位的哲思家們的哲思,來檢驗其哲思是否夠偉大。D.說明為什麼,亙學正是西方哲學道統史和東方思想道統史,兩個哲思道統,所綜合匯流而成的—「總道統」。E.亙學,因為偉大,所以很有資格指導後世中較優秀的哲思家們,要以自我期許的自信和氣魄,發揚亙學,再去指導和造福人們。F.讓讀者們預先從第一章知道亙學約略將要怎麼指導人類過一生的。第二章:我們把一個人從小到老的一生的可能演變和造化,就預先告知人類,該如何看待 ...

  • 信步回家

    紀念王鎮華與林怡玎

    by 王鎮華等 ...
    本書初衷,是為了替王鎮華先生實現沒來得及完成的生活卡片出版工作,與書院討論過程中逐步擴大範圍,在他逝世兩週年後的此刻,將所有來自各界友人與親朋家族方方面面的追思,一併集結收錄成冊,賦予生活卡片更深一層的念想。「沒有林怡玎,就沒有王鎮華」。為了更好地凝聚出其人風貌,而策畫了圖片說故事、年表、生活象徵物品等單元,透過時間軸的概覽,擷取有故事性的場景與片段,為人物添上幾筆色彩。至此,本書全貌便自然而然浮現,精確定位為「成雙紀念王鎮華與林怡玎的一本書」,鋪陳三條探索路線,引導讀者走讀兩人生命風景。本書無意著墨於王鎮華的學問介紹,也未設置直擊學術專業或歷史地位的準星,若說易經套書是王鎮華回家的路,《信步回家》則是一盞為讀者點燃的小小提燈,在忽暗忽明的生活裡,讓老朋友們重溫王鎮華與林怡玎帶給人的感動和力量,讓新朋友們喜悅地發現,原來世間尚有此等活法:曾有一個老王是那般頂真,奮不顧身地投入他的追求 ...
