 | | The Phenomenon of Life(1st Edition) Toward a Philosophical Biology (Studies in Phenomenology and Existential Philosophy) by Hans Jonas, Eleonore Jonas, Lawrence Vogel, Robert Powell Paperback, 304 Pages, Published 2001 by Northwestern University Press ISBN-13: 978-0-8101-1749-5, ISBN: 0-8101-1749-5 "But to early man, standing on his earth arched by the dome of its sky, it could never occur that life might be a side issue in the universe, and not its pervading rule.

In such a world-view, the riddle confronting man is death: it is the ..." |

 | | The Gnostic Religion The Message of the Alien God and the Beginnings of Christianity by Hans Jonas 302 Pages, Published 2015 by Beacon Press ISBN-13: 978-0-8070-5800-8, ISBN: 0-8070-5800-9 "Of course, the relative prominence of this cosmogonic feature in the Chenobo- skion collection — a consequence of its Sethian emphasis — is no reason for now seeing in it more than the quite specific feature, peculiar to one group of teachings, as which it appeared before. The emanation-, aeon- and Sophia- speculation of the whole "Syrian-Egyptian" gnosis has no room for it; the "Iranian" gnosis itself, to which it belongs, can do w ..." |
