The political and economic foundation of that New Earth civilization lies in UBUNTU/Contributionism Communities. In this book, I explain what it will take to create/attract such Communities, and why it is of some urgency that those who wish to live in them begin to create/attract t ..."

It combines close readings of important texts with a thoroughgoing political analysis of seventeenth-century French society in terms of class and gender.

Paperback, 315 Pages, Published 2010 by Mercier Press
ISBN-13: 978-1-85635-668-8, ISBN: 1-85635-668-X

"Armies tend to attract brutal men for whom authority is an aphrodisiac. They get their rewards from their own certitudes, they are right and all others are weak, wrong or disloyal. They love rank, pomp, uniforms, power and ceremony. The armed forces of any country in the world will tend to be magnets for these undesirables. They should be spotted at an early stage and weeded out before they can do damage. Since the foundation of the sta ..."

Fallen Nature, Fallen Selves(1st Edition)
Early Modern French Thought II (v. 2)
by Michael Moriarty
Hardcover, 448 Pages, Published 2006 by Oxford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-929103-8, ISBN: 0-19-929103-9

"From the late sixteenth to the late seventeenth centuries, French writing is especially concerned with analyzing human nature. The ancient ethical vision of man's nature and goal (we achieve fulfillment by living our lives according to reason, the highest and noblest element of our nature) survives, even, to some extent, in Descartes. But it is put into question especially by the revival of St. Augustine's thought, which focuses on the ..."






The Passions of the Soul and Other Late Philosophical Writings(1st Edition)
(Oxford World's Classics)
by Rene Descartes, Michael Moriarty, Moriarty Descartes
Paperback, 448 Pages, Published 2016 by Oxford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-968413-7, ISBN: 0-19-968413-8

"'Those most capable of being moved by passion are those capable of tasting the most sweetness in this life.' Descartes is most often thought of as introducing a total separation of mind and body. But he also acknowledged the intimate union between them, and in his later writings he concentrated on understanding this aspect of human nature. The Passions of the Soul is his greatest contribution to this debate. It contains a profound discu ..."






Disguised Vices(1st Edition)
Theories of Virtue in Early Modern French Thought
by Michael Moriarty
Hardcover, 432 Pages, Published 2011 by Oxford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-958937-1, ISBN: 0-19-958937-2

"The notions of virtue and vice are essential components of the Western ethical tradition. But in early modern France they were called into question, as writers, most famously La Rochefoucauld, argued that what appears as virtue is in fact disguised vice: people carry out praiseworthy deeds because they stand to gain in some way; they deserve no credit for their behaviour because they have no control over it; they are governed by feeling ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-684-80425-5, ISBN: 0-684-80425-5

"So much for Marion's voyeur theory of Charles since, as an expert in the field, I find voyeurism not even diagnosable until the mid-twenties. Up until then, it is education. Their marriage, according to Charles, was prompted by a pregnancy ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-19-926146-8, ISBN: 0-19-926146-6

"The Age of Suspicion Michael Moriarty. Aristotelian ism in Corneille's works (the relevance to Nicomede, say, of the conception of the magnanimous man in the Ethics). :v This is not to say that Aristotle functioned as a kind of anti-ideological disinfectant, but one would need to show how the educational apparatus that sustained Aristotelianism fitted into the interplay between classes or social strata. Benichou provides a brillian ..."

"The book will seek to orient the newly-awakened to the situation that they find themselves in on this planet: to how they seem to be powerless but, in truth, are in possession of all power.

ISBN-13: 978-0-7456-8048-4, ISBN: 0-7456-8048-8

"On another, miming such labels as 'late Beethoven', 'late Monet', it elevates him to the status of an artist, and credits him with the qualities and kinds of achievement deemed characteristic of artists in their later years: impatience with technique, apparent indifference to audience, a new kind of depth and vision. And this image, for all its stereotypical potential, is not perhaps inapt. What is indeed new in the Barthes of the ..."
