"In Feeling Our Feelings, Eva Brann considers what the great philosophers on the passions and feelings have thought and written about them. She examines the relevant work of Plato, Aristotle, the Stoics, Aquinas, Descartes, Spinoza, Adam Smith, Hume, Kierkegaard, and Heidegger, and also includes a chapter on contemporary studies on the brain. Feeling Our Feelings provides a comprehensive look at this pervasive and elusive topic"-- Publisher description.

'What is time?' Well-known philosopher and intellectual historian, Eva Brann mounts an inquiry into a subject universally agreed to be among the most familiar and the most strange of human experiences. Brann approaches questions of time through the study of ten famous texts by such thinkers as Plato, Augustine, Kant, Husserl, and Heidegger, showing how they bring to light the perennial issues regarding time. She also offers her independent reflections.

A month in rehab would be stressful enough without a television audience. When the ramshackle cast checks in for "Amends," a new reality series about alcoholism and recovery, they don't know if they've been cast as villains or potential redemption arcs. Over the course of the show they learn what God sees when he shuts his eyes, how to appreciate the comforts of hallucination, and what it looks like when a wolf fights a troll. A conservative journalist woos a homeless Ethiopian visionary. A teen hockey star licks a human heart. And a collections agent pays some of his own oldest and saddest debts. From backhanded compliments to accidental forgiveness, "Amends" proves that there's a place you can go when you've given up on reality: reality TV.

The very fact that it had spread as far as this Lithuanian hamlet is sufficient indication that the news must have been startling indeed. For had not Grazhni overslept an eclipse of the sun one bright summer morning and discovered the occurrence of that phenomenon from a chance traveller nearly a month after its skies had been darkened? Even the terrifying report of the "Dekabrists" had scarcely penetrated the heart of this village, though the iron ruler Nicholas the First had been steadying his throne and tightening the reins of his administration for more than two years. Grazhni received the first inkling of this news the day after the Feast of Tabernacles. It was a gloomy day. Besides the depression that usually follows a long holiday nature added a touch of sadness to the occasion. Grey and black ragged clouds hung threateningly in the skies and frequently sent down a foggy moisture upon the muddy streets. The town appeared like fairgrounds immediately after the close of the busy season. Sheds and booths of all shapes and sizes, put together of heterogeneous doors, windows, and uneven boards, and attached to the weatherworn, dilapidated wooden houses, were now deserted, evergreens hanging down on every side like so many eagles' broken wings; some of these crazy structures looked as if a cyclone had just struck them. Nor did the inhabitants present a more cheerful aspect. Silently, shrouded in deep melancholy, a number of men sauntered toward the market-place. The nucleus had already been formed by Moshe Beril's wistfully chewing a straw, and Kalman Buck surlily scratching the back of his head. Neither had said a word until Tevil the wine maker approached them when both exclaimed simultaneou...
