  • The Rights of War and Peace: Political Thought and the International Order From Grotius to Kant.Richard Tuck - 1999 - Clarendon Press.
    The Rights of War and Peace is the first fully historical account of the formative period of modern theories of international law. Professor Tuck examines the arguments over the moral basis for war and international aggression, and links the debates to the writings of the great political theorists such as Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, and Kant. The book illuminates the presuppositions behind much current political theory, and puts into a new perspective the connection between liberalism and imperialism.

    In this classic work, Leo Strauss examines the problem of natural right and argues that there is a firm foundation in reality for the distinction between right and wrong in ethics and politics. On the centenary of Strauss's birth, and the fiftieth anniversary of the Walgreen Lectures which spawned the work, _Natural Right and History_ remains as controversial and essential as ever. "Strauss... makes a significant contribution towards an understanding of the intellectual crisis in which we find ourselves... [and] brings (...)

  • The Consolation of Philosophy.Peter Walsh (ed.) - 1962 - Oxford University Press UK.
    Boethius composed the Consolatio Philosophiae in the sixth century AD whilst awaiting death under torture. He had been condemned on a charge of treason which he protested was manifestly unjust. Though a convinced Christian, in detailing the true end of life which is the soul's knowledge of God, he consoled himself not with Christian precepts but with the tenets of Greek philosophy. This work dominated the intellectual world of the Middle Ages; writers as diverse as Thomas Aquinas, Jean de Meun, (...)

  • Être Vivre Exister Note sur le commencement de l'homme.Jean-Yves Lacoste - 1993 - Revue de Métaphysique et de Morale 98 (3):347 - 366.
    La reconnaissance de l'homme par l'homme constitue modernement le problème de l' « intersubjectivité ». Mais qu'en est-il de l'homme à peine commencé — de l'embryon humain ? Le modèle intersubjectif (l'article y fait référence sous la forme qu'il possède chez Husserl) ne peut être de nul secours. En même temps, nous en savons assez — par voie de connaissance empirique — sur les commencements de l'homme pour disqualifier tout effort mené pour méconnaître entre lui et moi une certaine communauté (...)
