Kant Incorporated
Corporations are legal bodies with duties and powers distinct from those of individual people. Kant discusses them in many places. He endorses universities and churches; he criticises feudal orders and some charitable foundations; he condemns early business corporations' overseas activities. This Element argues that Kant's practical philosophy offers a systematic basis for understanding these bodies. Corporations bridge the central distinctions of his practical philosophy: ethics versus right, public versus private right. Corporations can extend freedom, structure moral activity, and aid progress towards more rightful conditions. Kant's thought also highlights a fundamental threat. In every corporation, some people exercise the corporation's legal powers, without the same liabilities as private individuals. This threatens Kant's principle of innate equality: no citizen should have greater legal rights than any other. This Element explores the justifications and safeguards needed to deal with this threat. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
Soviet Secret Police Chiefs, 1917-1953
Soviet Secret Police Chiefs, 1926–1953. Commissars of Fear is a combined edition of two works by Boris V. Sokolov, detailing the lives and careers of the six Soviet secret police heads from Dzerzhinskii to Abakumov. The book brings together The People’s Commissars of Fear and its expanded version The People’s Commissars of Terror, offering a comprehensive view of the men who led Stalin’s apparatus of repression.This reflection on the Soviet era, particularly from the 1920s to the 1950s under Stalin, challenges romanticized views of the past by revealing it as a grim and tragic period. The fates of the six Soviet secret police chiefs—once powerful figures of state repression—serve as stark illustrations. These men, who were responsible for countless deaths during the Great Terror, ultimately shared the fate of their victims, executed by the same regime they served. The author stresses that they were not inherently monstrous but ordinary individuals shaped—and corrupted—by a criminal system. Had historical circumstances differed, they might have lived quiet lives. The positions they held sealed their destinies, making them too dangerous for the regime to keep alive due to the blood they had on their hands, which mirrored that of the top party leadership. Their tragic end highlights how power not only corrupted but consumed its own agents. The author concludes that it was not personal evil but the systemic, criminal nature of Soviet power that transformed these otherwise mediocre men into enduring symbols of terror.A note of gratitude is extended to individuals and institutions who supported the book’s research, especially the Russian State Archive of Socio-Political History (RGASPI).
Gunners in Normandy
The official account of the Royal Artillery’s activities in the Normandy campaign, this volume breaks down the historic achievements of the Regiment, integrating newly published research with a detailed account of their activities, logistics and equipment in the offensive.Gunners in Normandy includes mention of every regiment that served, a Roll of Honour, and a list of the dead by unit. This book presents the definitive record of events, assembled from interviews with veterans, papers and documents from the Firepower Archives, terrain studies, personal memoirs, war diaries and other official documents. Serious students of the battle for Normandy should find this essential reading, with comprehensive coverage of the role of the Royal Artillery, and much material not published anywhere else, including orders of battle, the details of targets engaged by the guns and their effectiveness.
Helsinki
The epic story of Helsinki--founded by Sweden, refashioned by Russia, forever shaped by the sea.Over 475 years, the Finnish capital has gone from a sleepy fishing village to a thriving Nordic metropolis, globally renowned for its architecture, design and quality of life. This intricate and expansive new history lays bare the perils--and occasional perks--of Helsinki''s position on the Baltic Sea, sandwiched between East and West.In flowing prose and fascinating anecdotes, Henrik Meinander explores all corners of Helsinki''s past, from trade and the Olympics to the colour of everyday life. He narrates the city''s survival through the rise and fall of two empires; its triumph as an independent capital in 1917; and how, since then, it has grown and flourished through language battles, Soviet air raids and Cold War compromises.More than most European capitals, Helsinki has spent centuries at the mercy of geopolitical twists and turns far beyond its control. This book is a timely reminder of how quickly such forces can alter a city''s destiny--yet, ultimately, can be overcome.
Songs of True Accomplishment
The profound teachings by Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche are in the style of penetrating, pith instructions. This book embodies his subtle and percipient wisdom expressed through the age-old tradition of spiritual songs.The main practice in the Kagyü teaching system is Mahamudra. The lineage of Mahamudra chiefy comes through Marpa Lotsawa’s two root gurus, Naropa and Maitripa. The texts explained here — A Summary of Mahamudra and The View, Concisely Put — were spoken by Naropa.Naropa’s songs are very important for practitioners of Mahamudra, pithy words, rich with meaning. This is why Khenchen chose to teach them during his courses. The songs and my explanations were translated by lotsawa Erik Pema Kunsang. These teachings are about essential meditation training. Rinpoche considered them very important for future students to pay attention to and study. He expressed that doing so would greatly benefit one’s understanding of the key points of MahamudraGiven in the style of pith instructions, these profound lectures on the key points of two Songs by Naropa, are accompanied by an explanation of the lord of the Dharma, Jamgön Lodrö Thaye’s song of experience in Mahamudra. Please all Dharma practitioners take the meaning of these extremely precious teachings to heart and make it a personal experience through correct practice.Naropa was born as the son of a king. Growing up, however, he had no inclination to become the ruler of a country. Instead, he renounced his kingdom and took ordination as a monk. He studied and became extremely learned. Later, he stayed at the great monastic university of Nalanda in eastern India… Naropa underwent twelve minor and twelve major trials. The minor ones were in his search for his master, Tilopa and the major ones were inflicted by Tilopa. In the end, his realization became identical to his teacher.Naropa’s songs of realization are the Song of Naropa and the Summary of Mahamudra. It is both important and necessary to study and reflect upon such extraordinary teachings on the view of Mahamudra. When put into practice these instructions are incredibly effective.Teachings like Mahamudra, also known as the path of liberation, as explained by Naropa in this book, have the complete, true view. A beginner can embark on this training in a very gentle and relaxed way. It is not necessary to grapple with too many difficulties.Jamgön Kongtrül Lodrö Thaye was foretold by Buddha Shakyamuni in the King of Samadhi Sutra. When Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche taught this sutra, he mentioned that Gampopa was predicted but I did not say much about Jamgön Kongtrül. In the sutra the Buddha is recorded as saying, “In the future, when the time of degeneration has begun, there will be a great bodhisattva named Lodrö who will vastly benefit beings by means of the five types of knowledge.” In fact, Jamgön Kongtrül Lodrö Thaye established the body of the Buddha’s teachings, which he collected and composed, within five treasuries. In this way, he delayed the disappearance of the Buddhadharma. When he realized the view of Mahamudra, he spontaneously wrote down the song included here.

Les ateliers de ceramique de la Byzacene du Sud-Ouest
Les ateliers de céramique de la Byzacene du Sud-Ouest is the result of more than three decades of investigation, examining ceramic workshop dumps in the southwest region of Byzacena. Over this period, we have had the rare opportunity to uncover the remains of seven workshops, three of which are still unpublished. Our research unfolded in two main phases : the first focused on locating, identifying, and distinguishing between endogenous and exogenous production in the region, particularly the so-called “classic” types. During the second phase, our efforts shifted to detecting, exploring, and prospecting for new production centers, as well as on the typological, mineralogical, and petrographic analysis of the various products, aimed at disentangling regional production from one another and defining their distribution areas. The task was challenging, especially given the often-pronounced similarities in the clays used and the forms produced. Beyond this technical aspect, which includes body types, slips, shapes, typologies, motifs, and decorative styles, our research stands out for its diachronic approach. This approach reveals the historical factors—both economic and political—that contributed to the the appearance, development, and extinction of these workshops. Additionally, our study of the ceramic rejects from the eight workshops, the subject of this work, revealed a spatial distribution from east to west, with a designated catchment area for each production center and a categorical distribution of types. Chronologically, our findings revealed a synchronisation in the emergence and decline of these workshops and identifying a peak period of activity and production.

Pio atya lenyűgöző csodatételei
„Pio atya a huszadik század egyik legnagyszerűbb alakja volt, katolikus pap és csodatévő, aki Krisztus sebeit, a stigmákat hordozta magán. 2002-ben az egyház szentté avatta és a Pietrelcinai Szent Pio névvel ruházta fel. A magam részéről hiszem, hogy az ebben a könyvben szereplő minden történet és esemény igaz, különben nem jegyeztem volna le őket. Pio atya természetfeletti képességei számosak és mélyrehatóak, s amint majd láthatod, néhányat képtelenség beilleszteni bármely ismert kategóriába. Pio atya a csodatételeket sohasem tulajdonította saját magának, hanem azt állította, hogy minden dicsőség, dicséret és hálaadás Istent illeti, és mindezek csak az imák és Szűz Mária közbenjárása által valósulhatnak meg.” (Frank M. Rega)
Svetový kongres Slovákov v dokumentoch 2
Predkladaná pramenná edícia je druhým dielom dokumentov z prostredia Svetového kongresu Slovákov. Nadväzuje na edíciu dokumentov, ktoré vzišli z generálnych zhromaždení v rokoch 1970 až 1990 a boli publikované Ústavom pamäti národa v roku 2021.

Poukazovanie na porušovanie základných práv československým komunistickým režimom patrilo k programovému vybaveniu kongresu, ktorý sa problematikou ľudských, národných a náboženských práv od svojho založenia zaoberal. Pramennú edíciu tvoria memorandá Svetového kongresu Slovákov určené pre kontrolné zasadnutia Konferencie o bezpečnosti a spolupráci v Európe v Belehrade, Madride, Ottawě a vo Viedni. Okrem nich sú do edície zaradené aj ďalšie dokumenty, ktoré obsahovo súvisia s agendou ľudských práv či základným programovým smerovaním Svetového kongresu Slovákov. Publikácia posúva poznanie o existencii a činnosti Svetového kongresu Slovákov o krok vpred.
Buddhist Psychotherapy
A rich resource enabling therapists to bring Buddhist philosophy to modern psychotherapy. Mindfulness-based interventions have become popular mental health treatments in recent years, but these interventions are typically applied by practitioners who lack knowledge of the interventions’ Buddhist origins. The historical, religious, and philosophical foundations of mindfulness offer essential insights for clinicians and researchers alike. This book, a collaboration between two practicing psychologists and an ordained Buddhist nun, examines the early Buddhist philosophical roots of mindfulness and provides a model for modern psychotherapy. In Buddhist psychotherapy, the therapist listens to a client discuss their concerns, considers how the client’s suffering can be conceptualized from a Buddhist worldview, and uses mindfulness and other techniques taught by the Buddha to address the source of their suffering. This framework does not rely on any specific spiritual belief, but instead seeks to alleviate client suffering in a world where everything is ultimately impermanent and impersonal. Amply illustrated with quotes from early Buddhist literature as well as modern clinical examples, this rich volume will help modern psychotherapists deepen their understanding of mindfulness and enrich their practice.
Encyklopedie československých legií
Předkládaná kniha navazuje na úspěšnou knihu „Dějiny československých legií v datech“. Tehdejší počin byl veden snahou o potlačení selektivního pojetí legionářských dějin, které však do současné doby nezmizelo, přičemž se mu dostává podpory od státních institucí. Některé události, z hlediska celé legionářské historie, jsou sice marginální, dostává se jim však usilovné propagační podpory. Naproti tomu zásadní vojenské akce, spojené v prvé řadě s bojovými akcemi na sibiřské magistrále v létě a na podzim 1918, zůstávají mimo zájem oficiálních autorit. Publikace proto navazuje na svého předchůdce a snaží se, nyní encyklopedickou formou, postihnout vše důležité, co s existencí legionářských jednotek. Více než tisícovka hesel je prioritně zaměřena na legionářské jednotky od úrovně samostatné vojskové setniny výše, na místa jejich dislokace, na velitelský sbor a na způsob jejich přepravy do vlasti. Hesla mají standardní formu, přičemž na sebe vzájemně odkazují. Text je doplněn několika stovkami dobových fotografií a dvěma desítkami map. Podobně jako u předcházející publikace, ta dnešní si klade za cíl obsahovou orientaci čtenáře ve velmi složitém a dynamickém období jednoho z nikoli nevýznamných prvků našich národních dějin.

Hearing Earth's Call: Life and Livelihood in First John
ECOLOGY & JUSTICE SERIESThe Good News of Jesus Christ is a word about life, and the letter of First John offers an important witness to how that life is lived in love. First John’s discussion of life is rarely read in an environmentally supportive way. Rodolfo Felices Luna explicitly sets out to challenge the human exclusivity of interpreting First John. Though it is not immediately thought of as one of the environmentalist texts of the biblical corpus, the ways that First John talks about life and love offer fresh approaches for both eco-critical readings of scripture and faithful Christian action for environmental well-being. This book explicitly takes up Pope Francis’s calls for an integral ecology and turns it on our reading of and living from scripture.
Společenstvo obětí
Nikdo by nikdy neměl obviňovat nikoho z obětí, to je jistá věc, mnozí z lidí, které máme okolo si prožili strašné věci. Nikdo by však neměl oběť podporovat v tom, aby jí zůstala.
Vždy existuje možnost volby a uplatněním vaší síly k tomu, abyste zvolili svobodnou budoucnost, se můžeme povznést nad osud.
Vzkaz na závěr: Nikdy se vy sami nedefinujte jako oběť. Nemůžete změnit svou minulost, ale můžete změnit svou budoucnost.
