Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature of history and humanity's place within it, examining the perspectives of philosophers from Vico to Hegel. The author argues that classical philosophies of history often resort to mystification to explain the apparent irrationality of human actions and events. Concepts such as "providence" or the "cunning of reason" are invoked to suggest that a higher power or hidden design guides history toward a predetermined end, ensuring its rationality despite the chaos and conflict that characterize human affairs. However, this book challenges this view, arguing that it ultimately undermines the significance of human freedom and agency. Instead, the author proposes a more nuanced understanding of history that acknowledges both the role of chance and necessity while emphasizing the importance of human consciousness and intentionality in shaping the course of events. By examining the limitations of classical philosophies of history, this book offers a fresh perspective on the relationship between reason and history, inviting readers to reconsider the nature of human agency and the role of individuals in shaping the world around them.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the intricate relationship between human thought and activity, specifically within the context of social being. The author delves into the ontological foundations of these concepts, exploring how they evolved historically and the profound impact they have on our understanding of the world. Challenging the dominant neopositivist viewpoint of the time, which dismissed ontological inquiries as unscientific, the author draws upon the insights of Hegel and Marx to offer a compelling alternative. The book analyzes the crucial role of consciousness in the development of social being, arguing that it is not merely a reflection of material reality but an active force that shapes and transforms it. Through an exploration of labor as a fundamental aspect of social being, the book unveils the interrelation between freedom and necessity, as well as the concepts of value and duty, which arise from conscious human action. The author contends that the teleological nature of human activity, as opposed to the deterministic causality of natural phenomena, is a distinctive feature of social being. This book presents a nuanced and thought-provoking analysis of the complex interplay between human thought, action, and the social world, challenging readers to consider the ontological foundations of our existence.
