Nella Grecia arcaica e classica il simposio era un momento importante di incontro tra gli esponenti di uno stesso gruppo sociale e politico: nel bere assieme si rinsaldavano i legami di amicizia e di partito, si componevano liriche o si cantavano i poeti più celebri, si conversava, si scherzava, si amoreggiava. Platone ci descrive un simposio di stampo tradizionale. L'intrattenimento di questa serata sarà costituito da una serie di elogi su Amore-Eros.

Where did the ideas come from that became the cornerstone of American democracy? Not only the erudite Thomas Jefferson, the wily and elusive Ben Franklin, and the underappreciated Thomas Paine, but also Ethan Allen, the hero of the Green Mountain Boys, and Thomas Young, the forgotten Founder who kicked off the Boston Tea Party. These radicals who founded America set their sights on a revolution of the mind. Derided as "infidels" and "atheists" in their own time, they wanted to liberate us not just from one king but from the tyranny of supernatural religion.

Published in 1791, Thomas Paine’s The Rights of Man defended the French Revolution’s values of freedom, equality, and brotherhood. He argued that a government based on justice ought to support mankind’s civil rights relating to security and protection, as well as the natural rights to life, liberty, and freedom of conscience. He also proposed plans for universal education, pensions, poverty relief, and social welfare in this classic work that was widely read across the West.

"L'arte della guerra" è senza alcun dubbio il più importante trattato di strategia militare che sia mai stato scritto. Il suo autore è il leggendario Sun Tzu, generale vissuto in Cina molto probabilmente tra il sesto e il quinto secolo avanti Cristo. Nei tredici capitoli de "L'Arte della Guerra" il generale Sun Tzu analizza ogni aspetto della guerra con uno stile conciso ed essenziale che lo rende uno straordinario strumento per analizzare ogni ambito della società umana.

Ascoltare il "Manifesto del Partito Comunista" è un'esperienza sorprendente. Pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1848, il testo scritto da Karl Marx e Friedrich Engels è infatti ancora oggi attualissimo. Per decenni al centro di studi, discussioni e polemiche, il "Manifesto del Partito Comunista" resta un documento imprescindibile per capire la storia contemporanea e moderna, ma è anche un valido strumento per affacciarsi in maniera più consapevole sul mondo contemporaneo.

"Una comunità fra i vivi e i morti (che diversamente non potrebbe essere creata in modo altrettanto intenso nel nostro attuale ciclo epocale) viene realizzata per il fatto che noi ci riempiamo di pensieri tratti dalla scienza dello spirito e che, tenendo in considerazione il morto, in un certo senso li offriamo a lui". Rudolf Steiner è senza dubbio uno degli esoterismi ottocenteschi più celebri. Vissuto a cavallo tra Ottocento e Novecento, ha fondato l'antroposofia, dottrina di derivazione teosofica .

Scritta nel 399 a.C. da Platone in seguito alla morte del suo maestro, "l'Apologia di Socrate" è uno dei testi giovanili di Platone. A più di duemila anni da quei tragici fatti, le parole di Platone restano le più attendibili del processo per la condanna a morte del fondatore della filosofia greca antica, parole che ancora oggi possono insegnarci moltissimo e offrirci numerosi spunti di riflessione e analisi.

“Ksitigarbha” is a Sanskrit word meaning “earth treasury”, reflecting the hidden treasures in the minds of all sentient beings, and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva’s specialty is His “power of vow”—a vow not to become a Buddha until all beings, including those in hell, are rescued. The narrator, Paul, is an inmate. He has been rescued by the Three Jewels and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva multiple times. We are moved by his serious, persistent vows to change himself and cultivate inwardly according to the Buddha and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva’s teachings.

At the center of the series is Ramon Ontiveros as a case study in the its impersonation.

This book is a wake-up call to my fellow Americans ... to get themselves back on the road that brought America to greatness over a long historical process, one lasting from the early 1600s until America arrived at superpower status in the follow-up to World War Two (the 1950s). The book digs deeply into that long historical record - to bring to light the fact that it was a moral-spiritual dynamic, not a political-economic one, that brought about this development.

Dr. King was correct when he stated that Black political leaders are surrogates for White power. The destruction of Black leadership is the most damaging crisis affecting the Black community. Unless this problem is solved, nothing beneficial will develop out of the unholy alliance between African American politicians and White liberals. Black leadership is dead. They abandoned King’s philosophy of direct confrontation, which was responsible for the meager gains African Americans made in the 1960s. Real Black leadership was destroyed by White liberals and was replaced by what Dr.
