Karl Popper described Die Beiden Grundrpobleme der Erkenntnistheorie.

Throughout the ages, many of the world's greatest thinkers have wrestled with the concept of -- and belief in -- God. It may seem unlikely that any new arguments or insights could be raised, but the twentieth century managed to produce two brilliant men with two diametrically opposed views about the question of God: Sigmund Freud and C. S. Lewis. They never had an actual meeting, but in The Question of God, their arguments are placed side by side for the very first time.
For more than tw...

This book is a fully updated and expanded new edition of An Introduction to Continental Philosophy, first published in 1996. It provides a clear, concise and readable introduction to philosophy in the continental tradition.

In Imagining Europe, Chiara Bottici and Benoit Challand explore the formation of modern European identity. Europe has not always been there, although we have been imagining it for quite some time. Even after the birth of a polity called the European Union, the meaning of Europe remained a very much contested topic.

In his later work, Freud proposed that the human psyche could be divided into three parts: Id, ego and super-ego.

The id is the completely unconscious, impulsive, childlike portion of the psyche that operates on the "pleasure principle...

Wherein Antoninus recordeth, What and of whom, whether Parents, Friends, or Masters; by their good examples, or good advice and counsel, he had learned:

?Wijsbegeerte is een betrouwbare gids voor een eerste of een hernieuwde kennismaking met de grote vragen uit de filosofie. Het boek is geen encyclopedie, geen opsomming van namen en standpunten, gevolgd door weer andere standpunten, die op hun beurt weer worden weerlegd.De auteurs vertrekken van één centrale vraag die als een rode draad door de hele tekst loopt: de vraag naar de verhouding tussen denken en werkelijkheid. Voor elk van de grote periodes uit de westerse filosofie wordt die vra...

De Nederlandse samenleving verwacht van haar militairen dat zij op moreel verantwoorde wijze handelen. Dat is een terechte verwachting die tegelijk niet zo vanzelfsprekend en eenduidig is als het klinkt. De huidige militaire praktijk laat zien dat politieke opdrachten, sociale en culturele contexten, innovatieve technologieën en organisatiestructuren de militair in zijn of haar concrete situatie voor vragen en dilemma’s plaatst die ingrijpende consequenties kunnen hebben voor alle betrokke...
