“Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.” From expressing his gratitude to the ones from whom he had learned important qualities and lessons in life to detailing his thoughts and reflections over a wide range of subjects including our mind and thoughts, life and death, goodness, self-judgement, virtuousness, nature, leadership, and human rationality, Meditations gives an insight into the inner life and philosophy of the last of the ‘Five Good Emperors,’ Marcus Aurelius. With ancient wisdom that is as relevant in modern times as it was then, Aurelius‘ Meditations is one of the greatest works of Greek and philosophical literature. A series of twelve books, it has continued to influence its readers throughout the centuries.

Beyond Good and Evil Classic Hardback Edition by Friedrich Nietzsche

- Dimensions : 22 x 14 x 1.5 cm
Beyond Good and Evil confirmed Nietzsche’s position as the towering European philosopher of his age. The work dramatically rejects traditional Western thought with its notions of truth and God, good and evil. Nietzsche seeks to demonstrate that the Christian world is steeped in a false piety and infected with a ‘slave morality’. With wit and energy, he turns from this critique to a philosophy that celebrates the present and demands that the individual impose their own ‘will to power’ upon the world.

- The Birth of Tragedy a book by German philosopher Friedrick Nietzsche, first published in 1872 as Die Geburt der Tragodie aus dem Geiste der Musik. A speculative rather than exegetical work examines the origins and development of poetry, specifically Greek Tragedy. Nietzsche argues that Greek Tragedy arose out of the fusion of what he termed Apollonian and Dionysian elements – the former representing measure. restraint, and harmony and the latter unbridled passion- and that Socratic rationalism and optimism spelled the death of Greek Tragedy. The Final part of the book is a rhapsody on the rebirth of tragedy from the spirit of Richard Wagner’s Music. Greeted by stony silence at first, the book became the object of heated controvery for those who mistook it for a conventional work of classical scholarship. It remains a classic in the history of aesthetics.
