Nicholas Royle, "Mother: A Memoir"
English | 2020 | pages: 224 | ISBN: 1912408570 | EPUB | 3,1 mb
Before the devastating 'loss of her marbles', Mrs Royle, a nurse by profession, is a marvellously no-nonsense character, an autodidact who reads widely and voraciously -from Trollope to Woolf, Tennyson to Foucault -swears at her fox-hunting neighbours, and instils in the young Nick a love of reading and of wildlife that will form his character and his career. In this touching, funny and beautifully written portrait of family life, mother-son relationships and bereavement, Nicholas Royle captures the spirit of post-war parenting as well as of his mother whose dementia and death were triggered by the tragedy of losing her other son-Royle's younger brother -to cancer in his twenties. At once poetic and philosophical, this extraordinary memoir is also a powerful reflection on the climate crisis and 'mother nature', on literature and life writing, on human and non-human animals, and on the links between the maternal and memory itself.

Pierre Manent, "Montaigne: Life without Law "

In Montaigne: Life without Law, originally published in French in 2014 and now translated for the first time into English by Paul Seaton, Pierre Manent provides a careful reading of Montaigne's three-volume work, Essays. Although Montaigne's writing resists easy analysis―Montaigne includes seven essays before he even explicitly states the purpose of the Essays―Manent finds in it a subtle unity, and demonstrates both the philosophical depth of Montaigne's reflections and the distinctive and even radical character of his central ideas. To show Montaigne's unique contribution to political discourse, Manent compares his work to other influential modern philosophers, including Machiavelli, Hobbes, Pascal, and Rousseau. For example, whereas Hobbes proposed the modern state as necessary because of humanity's supposedly natural condition in a "war of all against all," Montaigne did not see the state as the remedy to civil-religious discord. But in fact, speculation on the state does not play a large role in the Essays. Rather, Montaigne's philosophical reflection focuses on the concept of what he calls
