Sexuality and Civilisation (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This work addresses the question of sexuality from a complete civilisational context, looking primarily in a cultural and philosophical way. It includes discussion of Freud and Shakespeare among others, and some insight into the cultural history of sexuality. It concludes that Natural Law is a good framework for considering this topic, as well as a heightened sense of the full potential of man in his creative and intellectual potential, which surely requires a due regard for sexuality as something of a second order concern.

Autorenporträt

Quiet academic type from North West England. BA English, MA Renaissance Literature. I studied in exile by the rivers of Babylon for 3 years, aka Cambridge. And I descended into Egypt, aka PricewaterhouseCoopers. Now I live in a spiritual hermitage where I study literature, philosophy and religion. I am a Roman Catholic convert, and particularly find spiritual fulfilment in the Divine Mercy Chaplet and the Liturgy of the Hours. Beer, wine, and spirits are my three branches of government. I am currently especially interested in French and Italian red. Philosophy is really the driving force of my life, and I always seek to question and open up new vistas on being. From Classical ethics to Medieval metaphysics to existentialism, I like to run the gamut of philosophical thought. Poetry is an abiding passion of mine. Finally, a list of books I hold very close to my heart: Augustine, 'Confessions'; Bonaventure, 'Journey of the Mind to God'; Dante, 'The Divine Comedy'; Plato, 'Phaedrus'; Cervantes, 'Don Quixote'; 'The Bhagavad Gita', & of course, 'The Bible'.
