Discourses on the First Decade of Titus Livius
Anotace: The Discourses on Livy (Italian: Discorsi sopra la prima deca di Tito Livio, literally "Discourses on the First Decade of Titus Livy") is a work of political history and philosophy written in the early 16th century (ca. 1517) by the Italian writer and political theorist Niccolò Machiavelli, best known as the author of The Prince. Where the latter is nominally devoted to advising the ruler of a principality, in other words a type of monarchy, the Discourses purport to explain the structure and benefits of a republic, a form of government based on some level of popular consent and control. Teorie práva
Anotace: Díky své koncepci se tato publikace podstatně odlišuje od všech tematicky příbuzných prací, které byly v posledních padesáti letech vydány. V úvodu čtenář nalezne stručný přehled historie filosofických koncepcí práva, na který navazuje pojednání právnické filosofické antropologie. Autor se postupně zabývá problematikou vztahu práva a člověka, podstatou práva, podává přehled právní geografie a stručný přehled základních problémů právní informatiky. Hugo Grotius
The Freedom of the Seas
Anotace: Mare Liberum (or The Freedom of the Seas) is a book in Latin on international law written by the Dutch jurist and philosopher Hugo Grotius, first published in 1609. In The Free Sea, Grotius formulated the new principle that the sea was international territory and all nations were free to use it for seafaring trade. The disputation was directed towards the Portuguese Mare clausum policy and their claim of monopoly on the East Indian Trade. Grotius wrote the treatise while being a counsel to the Dutch East India Company over the seizing of the Santa Catarina Portuguese carrack issue. The work was assigned to Grotius by the Zeeland Chamber of the Dutch East India Company in 1608. Hugo Grotius
On the Law of War and Peace
Anotace: One of the classic works of Western legal and political thought kolektiv
Život svatého Václava
Anotace: Život svatého Václava je raně středověký text známý též jako První staroslověnská legenda o svatém Václavu. Text ve formě politického a historického vyprávění pochází z poloviny 10. století a jeho cílem byla oslava knížete Václava, po jehož smrti Život zřejmě nedlouho vznikl. Utilitarianism
Anotace: British philosopher John Stuart Mill approached ethical theory with a scientist's eye in his contributions to utilitarianism. Building upon the premise set forth by Jeremy Bentham, Mill subjected his own work to the scientific method and deep, incisive inquiry. Mill formulated utilitarianism on the "greatest-happiness principle." Under this principle, it is ethical only to act in such a way that will deliver the greatest amount of happiness to the greatest amount of people. The work outlines how Mill defines and orders higher and lower forms of happiness as well as stressing the importance of holding an objective perspective when determining the ethical status of an event. A must-read for anyone with an interest in ethical inquiry. Cassiodorus
The Letters of Cassiodorus
Anotace: Collection of official correspondences written during his tenure as a high-ranking official in the Ostrogothic Kingdom of Italy in the 6th century. The letters offer a rich insight into the administration, politics, and culture of the time, as well as Cassiodorus' intellectual and religious concerns. The work serves as a valuable historical source, shedding light on the complexities of governance, the interactions between Roman and Gothic traditions, and the challenges of maintaining stability in a period of transition. Through these letters, Cassiodorus also reflects his commitment to preserving Roman cultural heritage and his efforts to integrate it with the ruling Gothic elite. This collection is essential for understanding the dynamics of power and cultural exchange in early medieval Europe. The Subjection of Women
Anotace: The Subjection of Women is an essay by English philosopher, political economist and civil servant John Stuart Mill published in 1869, with ideas he developed jointly with his wife Harriet Taylor Mill. Mill submitted the finished manuscript of their collaborative work On Liberty (1859) soon after her untimely death in late 1858, and then continued work on The Subjection of Women until its completion in 1861. At the time of its publication, the essay's argument for equality between the sexes was an affront to European conventional norms regarding the status of men and women. Representative Government
Anotace: John Stuart Mill's essay "Representative Government" is a seminal work in political philosophy, where he explores the principles and advantages of democratic governance through representative institutions. Mill delves into the nature of representative democracy, its benefits, and potential pitfalls. He argues in favor of individual liberties and the need for limits on the power of the majority to prevent tyranny over minority interests. Mill discusses the importance of educated citizens, deliberative debate, and the value of dissent in maintaining a healthy democracy. On Liberty
Anotace: On Liberty is an essay by the English philosopher John Stuart Mill. Published in 1859, it applies Mill's ethical system of utilitarianism to society and state. Mill suggests standards for the relationship between authority and liberty. He emphasizes the importance of individuality, which he considers prerequisite to the higher pleasures—the summum bonum of utilitarianism. Furthermore, Mill asserts that democratic ideals may result in the tyranny of the majority. Among the standards proposed are Mill's three basic liberties of individuals, his three legitimate objections to government intervention, and his two maxims regarding the relationship of the individual to society. Essays on Some Unsettled Questions of Political Economy
Anotace: Essays on Some Unsettled Questions of Political Economy (1844) is a treatise on political economics by John Stuart Mill. Walras' law, a principle in general equilibrium theory named in honour of Léon Walras, was first expressed by Mill in this treatise. Bentham
Anotace: John Stuart Mill's essay "Bentham" is a biographical and critical examination of the life and philosophical contributions of Jeremy Bentham, a prominent utilitarian philosopher. In this essay, Mill offers insights into Bentham's utilitarian principles, his ethical framework, and his perspectives on social reform. Mill explores Bentham's influence on the development of utilitarianism and his efforts to create a systematic approach to ethics and legislation. The essay also discusses Bentham's advocacy for legal and social reforms based on the greatest happiness principle. The Man versus the State
Anotace: Henry Hazlitt says that this book is "One of the most powerful and influential arguments for limited government, laissez faire and individualism ever written."Spencer played a huge role in the history of ideas, one that contemporary sociologists have sadly neglected other than to dismiss him as "social Darwinist." In fact, his great contribution was precisely to untangle the study of society from all claims that it operated as a life form apart from the choices made by individuals.He was a laissez-faire radical in times when academia was becoming ever more illiberal. He was an opponent of militarism, economic regulation, infringement on personal liberty, and government centralization. First Principles
Anotace: Herbert Spencer (1820-1903) was an English philosopher, best known for his scientific writings. Together with Charles Darwin and Thomas Huxley he was responsible for the acceptance of the theory of evolution. His well-known essay on Education: Intellectual, Moral and Physical was considered one of the most useful and profound books written on education. He projected a vast 10-volume work, Synthetic Philosophy, in which all phenomena are interpreted according to the principle of evolutionary progress. Together with Charles Darwin and Thomas Huxley he was responsible for the acceptance of the theory of evolution. In First Principles (originally published in 1862), the first of the projected volumes, Spencer distinguished phenomena from what he called the unknowable - an incomprehensible power or force from which everything derives. He limited knowledge to phenomena, i.e., the manifestations of the unknowable. He maintained that these manifestations proceed from their source according to a process of evolution. A Chapter in the Philosophy of Value
Anotace: A Chapter in the Philosophy of Value Georg Simmel American Journal of Sociology, vol. 5, 1900 "The fact of economic exchange confers upon the value of things something super-individual. It detaches them from dissolution in the mere subjectivity of the agents, and causes them to determine each other reciprocally, since each exerts its economic function in the other. The practically effective value is conferred upon the object, not merely by its own desirability, but by the desirability of another object. Not merely the relationship to the receptive subjects characterizes this value, but also the fact that it arrives at this relationship only at the price of a sacrifice; while from the opposite point of view this sacrifice appears as a good to be enjoyed, and the object in question, on the contrary, as a sacrifice. Hence the objects acquire a reciprocity of counterweight, which makes value appear in a quite special manner as an objective quality indwelling in themselves (...) " The Use of Knowledge in Society
Anotace: If you want to learn as much as possible about economics from just one article, read Friedrich A. Hayek’s “The Use of Knowledge in Society,” published in the September 1945 issue of The American Economic Review. First, no other article explains the economic problem as clearly. Second, none provides a better understanding of the superiority of market economies. Third, it exposes one of the most deplorable fallacies in the standard approach to teaching economics. Finally, it throws a spotlight on the dangerous ignorance of economic planning. Economics and Knowledge
Anotace: Main subject of this article is the role which assumptions and propositions about the knowledge possessed by the different members of society play in economic analysis. Sweet Thursday
Anotace: In Monterey, on the California coast, Sweet Thursday is what they call the day after Lousy Wednesday, which is one of those days that are just naturally bad. Returning to the scene of Cannery Row—the weedy lots and junk heaps and flophouses of Monterey, John Steinbeck once more brings to life the denizens of a netherworld of laughter and tears—from Doc, based on Steinbeck’s lifelong friend Ed Ricketts, to Fauna, new headmistress of the local brothel, to Hazel, a bum whose mother must have wanted a daughter. This Penguin Classics edition features an introduction and notes by Robert DeMott. Cup of Gold
A Life of Sir Henry Morgan, Buccaneer, with Occasional Reference to History
Anotace: Steinbeck’s first novel and sole work of historical fiction—the violent, exciting story of the infamous pirate Henry Morgan The Theory of Moral Sentiments
Anotace: Today Adam Smith's reputation rests on his explanation of how rational self-interest in a free-market economy leads to economic well-being. It may surprise those who would discount Smith as an advocate of ruthless individualism that his first major work concentrates on ethics and charity. In fact, while chair at the University of Glasgow, Smith's lecture subjects, in order of preference, were natural theology, ethics, jurisprudence, and economics, according to John Millar, Smith's pupil at the time. In The Theory of Moral Sentiments, Smith wrote: "How selfish soever man may be supposed, there are evidently some principles in his nature which interest him in the fortune of others and render their happiness necessary to him though he derives nothing from it except the pleasure of seeing it." The Theory of Moral Sentiments establishes the intellectual framework for all of Smith's later work, including the monumental Wealth of Nations. Vilfredo Pareto
The New Theories of Economics
Anotace: Vilfredo Federico Damaso Pareto 1848 1923), born Wilfried Fritz Pareto, was an Italian engineer, sociologist, economist, political scientist and philosopher. Paretos principles are spelled out in his short essay, The New Theories of Economics. Francois Villon

Teplo zhaslého plamene
Anotace: Výběr básní kultovního českého básníka počátku 20. století. Karel Havlíček Borovský
Tyrolské elegie
Anotace: Název elegie (tj. nářek, žalozpěv) je ironickou nadsázkou; dílo je humorným a satirickým popisem Havlíčkova zatčení a internace v Brixenu v Tyrolsku. Kritizuje policii, společenský systém (nenavrhuje lepší). Používá skutečných jmen a příhod (např. příhoda o zatčení, kdy se splašili koně, a Havlíček sám je musel krotit). Skládá se z devíti zpěvů. Objevují se zde satirické, lyrické a ironické prvky. Celé dílo je psáno v pravidelných rýmovaných čtyřverších. Karel Havlíček Borovský
Křest svatého Vladimíra
Anotace: Satirická báseň Křest svatého Vladimíra vznikala v letech 1852–1855. Havlíček stihl napsat jen 10 zpěvů, skladba zůstala nedokončena. Vydána byla posmrtně roku 1876. Autor se opíral o námět převzatý z Nestorova letopisu (Nestor byl ruský spisovatel, sestavil roku 1113 soubor letopisů, tzv. Pověst dávných let), kde se píše o tom, jak ruský kníže Vladimír nařídil utopit v Dněpru sochu pohanského boha Peruna. Karel Havlíček Borovský
Král Lávra
Anotace: Irská lidová pověst o králi s tajemstvím. Králův holič Kukulín nesmí nikomu prozradit co při holení vídá na jeho hlavě. Toto tajemství řekne vrbě. Muzikant Červíček si udělá z vrby kolíček k base. Basa na bále vše prozradí a král již nemusí před lidem dál skrývat pod vlasy to, co už všichni od Červíkovské basy slyšeli. May
Anotace: Karel Hynek Macha, who was destined to become the first Czech poet In the original Greek sense of the word, that is, a maker of "things of beauty" of an everlasting joyfulness, was born of poor parents on the 16th of November, 1810, in Prague. During his student years, both in the gymnasium and the university, Macha devoted much of his leisure to the reading of romantic poetry, especially that of German and Polish authors. Since 1831 he became one of the most zealous followers of Joseph Jungmann, at that time professor at the University of Prague. Jungmann was one of the acknowledged leaders who strived to bring about the rebirth of the Czech nation from the violently germanizing rule of Habsburgs. It is, therefore, not surprising at all that Macha, whose first attempts at poetry were composed in German as "Versuche des Ignaz Macha" (1829), henceforth chose his native Czech language as the vehicle for poetical expression. In 1836, the year when "May" was published, Macha was graduated from the law school of the University of Prague with great honors, and he entered the office of a justiciary in Litomerice. That year, at the peak of his creative abilities, Macha contracted pneumonia while helping to fight a fire and died November 5th, 1836, at the age of 26 years. Máj
Anotace: Vrcholné dílo průkopníka novodobé poezie K. H. Máchy, lyricko-epická báseň, v níž autor oslavuje krásu přírody a ústy hrdiny pronáší svoje odvážné myšlenky o tajemství smrti a věčnosti. Cikáni
Anotace: Román Cikáni vznikl roku 1835. Je jedním Máchovým dokončeným románem. Děj se odehrává v romantickém údolí pod hradem Kokořínem a v Itálii. I v tomto románě je Mácha mistrem v líčení krásy přírody. Základem vypravování jsou osudy hraběcího levobočka, který se dostal mezi cikány a byl jimi jako cikán vychován. Kromě toho je tu historie hraběte Valdemara a Angeliny, jeho milenky, jež zešílí, cikána Giacoma, dříve benátského gondoliéra, který se dostal mezi cikány a bloudí světem, aby se pomstil únosci své milenky, a pomatené židovky Ley.
