Ethics (Wordsworth Classics of World Literature)
Ethics by Benedict de Spinoza demonstrated in Geometrical Order shows us the reality behind this enigmatic figure. First published by his friends after his premature death at the age of forty-four, the Ethics uses the methods of Euclid to describe a single entity, properly called both 'God' and 'Nature', of which mind and matter are two manifestations. From this follow, in ways that are strikingly modern, the identity of mind and body, the necessary causation of events and actions, and the illusory nature of free will.
Romeo and Juliet (Wordsworth Classics)
Edited, introduced and annotated by Cedric Watts, Professor of English Literature, University of Sussex Love, sex and death are the components of Shakespeare's classic story of the love of two young people which reaches across the barriers of family and convention. It encompasses great love, high drama, low comedy and a tragic ending. Romeo and Juliet is a pure tragedy of youth told in verse that is both youthful and intense. The loveliness and the music of the poetry make believable the otherwise commonplace afflictions of blighted love.
Human, All Too Human & Beyond Good and Evil (Classics of World Literature)
Human, All Too Human (1878) marks the point where Nietzsche abandons German romanticism for the French Enlightenment. At a moment of crisis in his life (no longer a friend of Richard Wagner, forced to leave academic life through ill health), he sets out his views in a scintillating and bewildering series of aphorisms which contain the seeds of his later philosophy (e.g. the will to power, the need to transcend conventional Christian morality). The result is one of the cornerstones of his life's work. It well deserves its subtitle `A Book for Free Spirits', and its original dedication to Voltaire, whose project of radical enlightenment here finds a new champion. Beyond Good and Evil (1886) is a scathing and powerful critique of philosophy, religion and science. Here Nietzsche presents us with problems and challenges that are as troubling as they are inspiring, while at the same time outlining the virtues, ideas, and practices which will characterise the philosophy of the future. Relentless, energetic, tirelessly probing, he both determines that philosophy's agenda and is himself the embodiment of the type of thought he wants to foster.
The Prince (Wordsworth Classics of World Literature)
Translated by C.E.Detmold. With an Introduction by Lucille Margaret Kekewich.Written in 1513 for the Medici, following their return to power in Florence, The Prince is a handbook on ruling and the exercise of power. It remains as relevant today as it was in the sixteenth century. Widely quoted in the Press and in academic publications, The Prince has direct relevance to the issues of business and corporate governance confronting global corporations as they enter a new millennium.Much of what Machiavelli wrote has become the common currency of realpolitik, yet still his ideas retain the power to shock and annoy. In the words of Norman Stone, The Prince is 'a manual of man-management that would suit a great many parts of the modern world'.
Phantom of the Opera (Tales of Mystery & the Supernatural)
Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux. With an Introduction by David Stuart Davies ... the shadow turned round: and I saw a terrible death s-head, which darted a look at me from a pair of scorching eyes. I felt as if I were face to face with Satan... Erik, the Phantom of the Paris Opera House, is one of the great icons of horror literature. This tormented and disfigured creature has made his home in the labyrinthine cellars of this opulent building where he can indulge in his great passion for music, which is a substitute for the love and emotion denied him because of his ghastly appearance. It is in the Opera House that he encounters Christine Daaé whom he trains in secret to become a great singer. Erik s passionate obsession with a beautiful woman beyond his reach is doomed and leads to the dramatic tragic finale. Gaston Leroux s novel is a marvellous blend of detective story, romance and spine-tingling terror which has fascinated readers ever since the work was first published.
The Divine Comedy (Wordsworth Classics of World Literature)
The Divine Comedy: Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) is one of the most important and innovative figures of the European Middle Ages. Writing his Comedy (the epithet Divine was added by later admirers) in exile from his native Florence, he aimed to address a world gone astray both morally and politically. At the same time, he sought to push back the restrictive rules which traditionally governed writing in the Italian vernacular, to produce a radically new and all-encompassing work. The Comedy tells of the journey of a character who is at one and the same time both Dante himself and Everyman through the three realms of the Christian afterlife: Hell, Purgatory and Heaven. He presents a vision of the afterlife which is strikingly original in its conception, with a complex architecture and a coherent structure. On this journey Dante's protagonist - and his reader - meet characters who are variously noble, grotesque, beguiling, fearful, ridiculous, admirable, horrific and tender, and through them he is shown the consequences of sin, repentance and virtue, as he learns to avoid Hell and, through cleansing in Purgatory, to taste the joys of Heaven.

Modern Classics Siddhartha (Penguin Modern Classics)
Hermann Hesse's moving and inspirational chronicle of spiritual evolution, Siddhartha, includes a new introduction by bestselling author Paulo Coehlo in Penguin Classics. Siddhartha is perhaps the most important and compelling moral allegory our troubled century has produced. Integrating Eastern and Western spiritual traditions with psychoanalysis and philosophy, this strangely simple tale, written with a deep and moving empathy for humanity, has touched the lives of millions since its original publication in 1922. Set in India, Siddhartha is the story of a young Brahmin's search for ultimate reality after meeting with the Buddha. His quest takes him from a life of decadence to asceticism, from the illusory joys of sensual love with a beautiful courtesan, and of wealth and fame, to the painful struggles with his son and the ultimate wisdom of renunciation. Hermann Hesse (1877-1962) suffered from depression, endured criticism for his pacifist views, and weathered series of personal crises which led him to undergo psychoanalysis with J. B. Lang: a process which resulted in Demian (1919), a novel whose main character is torn between the orderliness of bourgeois existence and the turbulent and enticing world of sensual experience. This dichotomy is prominent in Hesse's subsequent novels, including Siddhartha (1922), Steppenwolf (1927), Narcissus and Goldmund (1930) and his magnum opus, The Glass Bead Game (1943). Hesse was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1946. Paulo Coelho was born in Brazil and has become one of the most widely read authors in the world. Especially renowned for The Alchemist and Eleven Minutes, he has sold more than 100 million books worldwide and has been translated into 66 languages. If you enjoyed Siddhartha, you might like Hesse's Steppenwolf, also available in Penguin Classics.
Animal Farm
All animals are equal - but some are more equal than others' When the downtrodden animals of Manor Farm overthrow their master Mr Jones and take over the farm themselves, they imagine it is the beginning of a life of freedom and equality. But gradually a cunning, ruthless élite among them, masterminded by the pigs Napoleon and Snowball, starts to take control. Soon the other animals discover that they are not all as equal as they thought, and find themselves hopelessly ensnared as one form of tyranny is replaced with another. 'It is the history of a revolution that went wrong - and of the excellent excuses that were forthcoming at every step for the perversion of the original doctrine,' wrote Orwell for the first edition of Animal Farm in 1945. Orwell wrote the novel at the end of 1943, but it almost remained unpublished: its savage attack on Stalin, at that time Britain's ally, led to the book being refused by publisher after publisher. Orwell's simple, tragic fable has since become a world-famous classic. This Penguin Modern classics edition includes an introduction by Malcolm Bradbury.
Modern Classics Memoirs of a Dutiful Daughter (Penguin Modern Classics)
A superb autobiography by one of the great literary figures of the twentieth century, Memoirs of a Dutiful Daughter offers an intimate picture of growing up in a bourgeois French family, rebelling as an adolescent against the conventional expectations of her class, and striking out on her own with an intellectual and existential ambition exceedingly rare in a young woman in the 1920s. Simone de Beavoir describes her early life, from her birth in Paris in 1908 to her student days at the Sorbonne, where she met Jean-Paul sartre - 'the dream-companion I had longed for since I was fifteen'.
Discourses and Selected Writings (Penguin Books Ltd)
A new translation of the influential teachings of the great Stoic philosopherDespite being born into slavery, Greco-Roman philosopher Epictetus became one of the most influential thinkers of his time. Discourses and Selected Writings is a transcribed collection of informal lectures given by the philosopher around AD 108. A gateway into the life and mind of a great intellectual, it is also an important example of the usage of Koine or “common” Greek, an ancestor to Standard Modern Greek.
Existentialism and Humanism
Over the past sixty years the writings of Jean-Paul Sartre have probably been more influential in the West than those of any other philosopher and literary figure. In his theoretical writings, Sartre laid the foundation for an original doctrine of Existentialism. His concern, however, was to relate his theory to human response and the practical demands of living. To achieve this, he carried his philosophical concepts into his novels and plays, and there subjected them to the test of imagined experience. His uniqueness lies in the success with which he demonstrated the utility of Existentialist doctrine while creating, at the same time, works of the highest literary merit. Thus Sartre became the populariser of his own literary thought. Originally delivered as a lecture in Paris in 1945, "Existentialism and Humanism" is Jean-Paul Sartre's seminal defence of Existentialism as a doctrine true to Humanism, as opposed to a purely nihilistic creed, and a plan for its practical application to everyday human life. This exploration of one of the central tenets of his philosophical thought has become the essential introduction to his work, and a fundamental text for all students of philosophy.

Culture et impérialisme – Edward Saïd
Dans Culture et impérialisme, Edward Said sonde des chefs-d’œuvre de la tradition occidentale et montre comment quelques-unes des productions culturelles les plus vénérées - y compris Mansfield Park de Jane Austen, Heart of Darkness de Joseph Conrad, Aida de Giuseppe Verdi, et L’Etranger d’Albert Camus - font appel aux mêmes énergies qui entrent dans la construction des empires. Il éclaire brillamment la manière dont la culture et la politique ont coopéré, sciemment et incons-ciemment, pour produire un système de domination qui a contribué, plus que les canons et les sol-dats, à construire une souveraineté qui s’étendait sur les formes, les images et l’imaginaire aussi bien des dominants que des dominés. Cet essai retrace également le développement d’une « souche oppo-sitionnel » qui a identifié et exposé les mécanismes de contrôle et de répression. Travaillant essen-tiellement dans les langues de leurs maîtres coloniaux, des écrivains autochtones comme William Butler Yeats, Aimé Césaire, Frantz Fanon, Kateb Yacine, et Chinua Achebe ont participé au pro-cessus de décolonisation en réclamant le droit pour leurs peuples à l’autodétermination de l’histoire et de la culture.
Enfin ce livre passionné et immensément documenté montre comment, aujourd’hui encore, l’héritage impérial imprègne les relations entre l’Occident et le monde anciennement colonisé à chaque niveau de la pratique politique, idéologique et sociale. Sa vision révèle néanmoins un vrai espoir : l’Occident et les peuples anciennement « assujettis » peuvent atteindre une cohabitation harmonieuse. Au-delà des nationalismes de division, Edward Said montre le chemin vers une prise de conscience que la véritable communauté humaine est mondiale.
« De nos jours, pour l’essentiel, le colonialisme direct a pris fin. L’impérialisme, nous le verrons, perdure là où il a toujours existé, dans une sorte de sphère culturelle générale et dans des pratiques politiques, idéologiques, économiques et sociales spécifiques. »
Edward W. Said.
Ennemis Mortels, représentations de l’islam et politiques musulmanes en France à l’époque coloniale – Olivier Lecour Granmaison
Pour mieux comprendre la place singulière de l’islam aujourd’hui en France, cet ouvrage étudie les représentations de cette religion et des musulmans élaborées de la fin du XIXe siècle jusqu’à la guerre d’Algérie par les élites académiques, scientifiques, littéraires et politiques.
S’appuyant sur des sources diverses, parfois ignorées ou négligées, Olivier Le Cour Grandmaison analyse la façon dont ces élites ont, pendant des décennies, conçu et diffusé un portrait pour le moins sombre des colonisés musulmans. Pendant qu’Ernest Renan, par exemple, soutient que l’islam « n’a été que nuisible », Guy de Maupassant se passionne pour la sexualité prétendument débridée et « contre nature » de ses adeptes.
Conçues par des personnalités souvent célèbres, diffusées par des institutions prestigieuses, ces représentations sont rapidement incluses dans de multiples ouvrages de vulgarisation. Jugé rétif au progrès, le « musulman » est décrit comme un danger protéiforme et existentiel qui menace les bonnes mœurs, la sécurité sanitaire, celle des biens et des personnes, l’avenir de la nation et de la civilisation occidentale.
Ces représentations éclairent également les « politiques musulmanes » mises en œuvre par la France. Enfin, comme le montre l’auteur, ce passé affecte toujours notre présent et alimente les obsessions islamophobes de beaucoup de nos contemporains.
Le vent a dit son nom – Mohamed Abdallah
Oran, automne 1954.
à la Mauresque, un espace symbole de tout un pays en agitation, au cœur de la ville indigène d’Oran, les doutes de ses occupants se multiplient et les questions abondent. Journalistes, politiques, romanciers, poètes, artistes se débattent dans un moment charnière de l’Histoire de leurs pays. Le monde ancien se meurt, tandis que le nouveau tarde à naître pour eux. Les hésitations comme les initiatives sont légion.
Ils essayent de naviguer à vue dans un océan si vaste qu’il se confond avec l’horizon ; un horizon qu’ils semblent parfois oublier mais que l’auteur a essayé de donner en permanence à voir aux lecteurs à travers son roman : Le Vent a dit son Nom.
multipliant les références aux figures emblématiques de l’éveil des consciences pour la liberté, Mohamed Abdallah tente d’offrir un regard neuf sur le rôle que peuvent tenir les hommes de lettres, les intellectuels, et plus généralement les gens de la culture, au moment où une Nation s’apprête à connaître de nouvelles épreuves. Autant de thèmes qui résonnent encore avec notre actualité.
« Une sage malice rayonnait de ses traits, et on avait toujours l’impression qu’il en savait plus qu’il ne voulait bien le dire, qu’une réflexion astucieuse se cachait derrière ses sourires. Son esprit vif et sa bonne bouille faisaient le bonheur de la Mauresque et de ses environs ; un rappel par son charme si tranquille que le monde pouvait encore recéler de la délicatesse. » (M. Abdallah)
Mémoires d’un gardien de but – Mehdi Cerbah
Dans ce récit autobiographique, Mehdi Cerbah, un des plus célèbres gardiens de but de sa génération, se livre aux amateurs de la balle ronde et relate les moments les plus succulents, parfois douloureux, qui ont jalonné sa carrière de footballeur, depuis son premier poste à la sélection nationale, catégorie cadet, en 1968.
De ses passages dans les clubs du championnat national aux compétitions africaines et méditerranéennes, jusqu’à l’épopée du Mondial 1982 avec la sélection nationale, revivre ces instants, dans l’intimité des vestiaires, des entraînements, des regroupements ou lors des déplacements, nous replongent dans un passé où le football en Algérie était non seulement considéré comme une compétition sportive où les clubs se disputaient les premières places des championnats en toute sportivité, car dignes représentants d’un quartier de la ville ou d’une région, mais en plus, c’était une « question de fierté nationale » que de voir le football national arracher sa place dans les débats des compétitions continentales et mondiales, juste au lendemain de l’indépendance du pays. Cela devait se faire sous le poids de lourdes jambes et d’un dévouement absolu.
Avec ce témoignage poignant, vivant, et vécu de surcroît, Mehdi Cerbah, la Grinta, comme aimer l’appeler ses coéquipiers, lègue dans ces pages une partie de l’histoire du football algérien et rend hommage à toute une génération de footballeurs, d’entraîneurs, de dirigeants et cadres sportifs qui ont fait son prestige. En homme public, dans un domaine aussi sensible que le football, il refuse de se murer dans le silence, se rendre complice d’un quelconque détournement de cette histoire ou permettre aux fossoyeurs de s’approprier des honneurs qui ne leurs sont pas dus.
« Faire oublier les sacrifices et les exploits consentis par toute une génération, digne héritière de son aînée, la glorieuse équipe du FLN, est une sorte de confiscation d’une partie de notre histoire... », nous confie-t-il.
