Pippin

(Magrì 2016; Pippin 2010). These lectures given by Kojève influenced subsequent thinkers like Merleau-Ponty and Sartre (Schmidt 1979). I am rejecting this kind of reading. This is a radical shift of Hegel’s reading from an epistemological account found in the first three chapters to sociality. Thus, I position my reading of Hegel’s Self-Consciousness with the more contemporary ones or what they call Hegel’s comeback to Analytic Philosophy. I would not consider my reading as Analytic,…

Throughout the middle ages, and more specifically for the sake of this essay the 5th to the 15th century, religion was a cause for great collaboration and, by contrast, great conflict between secular and ecclesiastical rulers.

A fire was smouldering in his brown eyes that would have made Ted Sandyman step backwards, if he had seen it.”…

After the fall of the Roman Empire in the late 5th century, the eastern Byzantine Empire flourished while the western regions disintegrated into fragmented kingdoms without any unifying authority. Europe was in the midst of its Dark Ages when Charlemagne was born in 742 AD. This time was marked by frequent warfare; therefore there were few cultural achievements during this time. Charlemagne became ruler of one kingdom in Germany in 768 AD, immediately setting out to expand his territory. Through…

When the Hobbits Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin; the Men Aragorn and Boromir; the Dwarf Gimli; the Elf Legolas; and the Wizard Gandalf set out from Rivendell they were forced to make their way through Moria after the failed attempt of climbing Caradhras where Wargs pursued them. When they arrive at the West-gate of Moria Frodo had the inspiration to ask for that word and saw it as a riddle.

“dangerous struggle for power, a frequent solution to power struggles in Anglo-Saxon royal families.” In addition, much speculation about this move by Carloman has taken place, including an idea that Carloman undertook this because of pressure from Pippin and that Carloman received his tonsure from the pope himself. Norman F. Cantor claims Carloman was "the first of a new type of saintly king, who was more interested in religious devotion than royal power, who frequently appeared in the…
