Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. ![]() Heretics! by Steven Nadler and Ben Nadler covers some of the history of modern Western philosophy beginning with Galileo and cleverly linking up philosophers and interweaving them until it finishes with Newton. I liked how the book flowed chronologically so that you can easily see how one philosopher influenced another. Philosophy is a heavy topic and I did slow down from time to time in order to understand some of this, but the author is very good at introducing the subject in small doses with simple, not too detailed drwings so that it isn't too difficult to follow. A good basic introduction to these philosophers and their beliefs. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"This entertaining and enlightening graphic narrative tells the exciting story of the seventeenth-century thinkers who challenged authority--sometimes risking excommunication, prison, and even death--to lay the foundations of modern philosophy and science and help usher in a new world...Heretics! tells the story of their ideas, lives, and times in a vivid new way. Crisscrossing Europe as it follows them in their travels and exiles, the narrative describes their meetings and clashes with each other--as well as their confrontations with religious and royal authority. It recounts key moments in the history of modern philosophy, including the burning of Giordano Bruno for heresy, Galileo's house arrest for defending Copernicanism, Descartes's proclaiming cogito ergo sum, Hobbes's vision of the "nasty and brutish" state of nature, and Spinoza's shocking Theological-Political Treatise." -- Publisher's description.
