Fantasia of the Unconscious

by D. H. Lawrence

The present book is a continuation from "Psychoanalysis and the Unconscious." The generality of readers had better just leave it alone. The generality of critics likewise. I really don't want to convince anybody. It is quite in opposition to my whole nature. I don't intend my books for the generality of readers. I count it a mistake of our mistaken democracy, that every man who can read print is allowed to believe that he can read all that is printed. I count it a misfortune that serious books are exposed in the public market, like slaves exposed naked for sale. But there we are, since we live in an age of mistaken democracy, we must go through with it.

The Dawn of Day

by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

WHEN Nietzsche called his book The Dawn of Day he was far from giving it a merely fanciful title to attract the attention of that large section of the public which judges books by their titles rather than by their contents. The Dawn of Day represents, figuratively, the dawn of Nietzsche's own philo- sophy. Hitherto he had been considerably influ- enced in his outlook, if not in his actual thoughts, by Schopenhauer, Wagner, and perhaps also Comte.

After his rupture with Bayreuth, Nietzsche is, in both parts of that work, trying to stand on his own legs, and to regain his spiritual freedom ; he is feeling his way to his own philosophy, The Dawn of Day y written in 1881 under the invigorating influ- ence of a Genoese spring, is the dawn of this new Nietzsche. " With this book I open my campaign against morality," he himself said later in his auto- biography, the Ecce Homo.

The Formation and Evolution of the Solar System

by James Schombert

This is a science course for non-science majors. The goals of this class are to gain an understanding of basic science that underlies Astronomy, to explore the properties of the objects of our Solar System, and to understand how the evolution of other planets has an impact on management of our own environment.
