Chaos Bewitched

Autor Laurence Campbell Cooper
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 ian 2022
A short pithy saying that sums up a general truth, the aphorism is the oldest written art form. Following in such a long tradition from Ancient Greeks like Plato and Heraclitus to Romans like Seneca and Cicero all the way to moderns like Nietzsche, the aphorisms contained in this volume reflect both invention and discovery, and, like all aphorisms, preferring self-evidence to demonstration, are above the vulgarity of argument. From proverbs to more lengthy meditations, from politics to love, Cooper ranges across a great many topics and styles. Formed at length from the intense heat and pressure of contemplation, aphorisms are the diamonds of literature and philosophy. They are a reader's best friend.

Notă biografică

Raised by a family of word wizards who taught him respect for language at a young age, Cooper has for many moons forced his interminable scrawl upon various bright, young, stylish, unsuspecting people of his acquaintance as if he were a cat presenting possum innards as a gift. When the Mars Review of Books awarded him the title of "Grand Inquisitor," he began his quest to conquer the local kindergarten. At the launch of his first book, "How to Stop Thinking and Start Winning at Life," he spent 40 minutes looking up the blurb in the contents. Cooper has also gained a certain renown for playing dress-ups with his neuroses and sugar-coating the bedrock horror of his own vacuity. Clearly he prefers absurdity and farce to earnest self-description.
