      Food and Cooking of Eastern Europe
    • With resonance for today, this book explores a significant crisis of German philosophy and national identity in the decades around World War II. German philosophy, famed for its high-minded Idealism, was plunged into crisis when Germany became an urban and industrial society in the late nineteenth century. The key figure of this shift was Immanuel seen for a century as the philosophical father of the nation, Kant seemed to lack crucial answers for violent and impersonal modern times. This book shows that the social and intellectual crisis that overturned Germany’s traditions—a sense of profound spiritual confusion over where modern society was headed—was the same crisis that allowed Hitler to come to power. It also describes how German philosophers actively struggled to create a new kind of philosophy in an effort to understand social incoherence and technology’s diminishing of the individual.

    • "Lesley Chamberlain describes Nietzsche's move to Italy in 1888 and the routines he followed during his year in Turin: their plainness throws the final flourishing of Nietzsche's talent into startling relief. This humane study is a moving reappraisal of one of the most influential thinkers on the present age." "Nietzsche emerges as a gentle, tortured man dominated by his rigorous mind and his love of music. Lesley Chamberlain argues against the monstrous figure whose popular image is falsely tainted with Nazism; his philosophy was centred not on power but on the problem of pain. She reassesses Nietzsche, not as a destructive anti-humanist, but as an individualist challenging the idea that human beings cannot bear too much reality. The world Nietzsche envisaged embraced fearlessness, decried all forms of escapism, and celebrated the colour, vigour and beauty of creative imagination."--Jacket

    • Exploring the mind of Freud, this biography blends literary criticism and personal insight to illuminate his profound impact on understanding the subconscious. Chamberlain argues that Freud's exploration of the subconscious was not only groundbreaking in psychology but also a significant artistic endeavor. By examining Freud's writings on art and incorporating perspectives from thinkers like Nietzsche and Trilling, she reveals how Freud's ideas transformed our perceptions of both mental health and artistic expression, ultimately enhancing individual creativity.
