On the Duties of Philosophers

Love Letters Without Love
First English translation of Karl Schmidt's 1846 wacky Young Hegelian satire of Max Stirner's individualist anarchism. Fully annotated.
The Organs of the Brain
A rollicking contemporary satire of the phrenology of Franz Joseph Gall, with the most extensive bibliography of the first decade of phrenology yet published. The need has long existed to account for the great variety of material which was written and printed in hundreds of works by other authors besides Franz Joseph Gall between the time when Gall first announced his skull theories in 1798 and the time when he finally published them himself in 1810. Quite a few phrenological bibliographies have been published, notably those of Choulant (1844), Möbius (1903 and 1905), Temkin (1947), Lantéri-Laura (1970), Heintel (1985), and Wyhe (2004). But the bibliography attached to this translation of Kotzebue's play is the most nearly complete of any which have so far appeared for this period.
How I Became a Life Master Playing the Weak No Trump
A comprehensive exposition of the Kaplan-Sheinwold (K-S) bidding system, incorporating up-to-date aggressive methods. Advantages of this Aggressive Weak No Trump bidding system include: (1) A greater proportion of limit bids and a higher frequency of bids in general, improving communication between partners. (2) More accurate low-level descriptive bids, making it easier during the auction to envision the probable play of the hand and to find your best contract. (3) Increased use of preempts, making it more difficult for the opponents to find their best possible result in a competitive auction.
The Broken Jug
A new translation of Kleist’s only comedy.
Poetic Imagination and Insanity
In 1886, in a speech to a group of military physicians, the prominent German philosopher Wilhelm Dilthey (1833-1911) rejected the traditional connection between artistic genius and inspired insanity.
