Offering a unique and wide-ranging examination of the theory of knowledge, this comprehensive collection deftly blends readings from the foremost classical sources with the work of important contemporary philosophical thinkers. Formative voices of epistemology from ancient Greek philosophy, medieval philosophy, early modern philosophy, classical pragmatism, and contemporary ana...(展开全部)

Ateliers have produced the greatest artists of all time - and now that educational model is experiencing a renaissance. These are based on the nineteenth-century model of teaching artists by pairing them with a master artist over a period of years. "Classical Drawing Atelier" is an atelier in a book - and the master is Juliette Aristides, a classically trained artist. Aristides...(展开全部)
