  • The Outsider

    by Albert Camus ...
    Translated by Sandra Smith ...
    Meursault leads an apparently unremarkable bachelor life in Algiers until he commits a random act of violence. His lack of emotion and failure to show remorse only serve to increase his guilt in the eyes of the law, and challenges the fundamental values of society - a set of rules so binding that any person breaking them is condemned as an outsider. For Meursault, this is an insult to his reason ... Read more

  • How to Misunderstand Kierkegaard

    An Instruction Manual for Assistant Professors and Other Immoral and Disreputable Persons

    by Stuart Dalton ...
    This book is an attempt to write about Kierkegaard's philosophy in the style of Kierkegaard's philosophy: energetic, playful, free spirited, surprising, and joyous. It is a deliberately crumby book in the sense that it seeks out the fragments, scraps, and crumbs of philosophical arguments that are generally ignored or swept away, like so much rubbish, but that are actually the most interesting ...

    A jó és a rosszon túl Nietzsche érett korszakának egyik kulcsműve, amelyben a filozófia hagyományos kereteit következetesen lebontja, és új alapokra helyezi az értékek vizsgálatát.
