Among so many old things inside the oldest large house of Terra Nova, Raquel finds many lost poems long forgotten in time. She also finds other poems in different places with various people.The starting point of this story is about the interest of the main character from this book into unclosing a mystery: Who is or who was the old house’s poet?Between this plot, one question we frequently ask ourselves. Are the time and the love a perfect couple or enemies? I advance that I have no answer for this question in this book, though the reader can reflect and get to their own conclusions.What we know is that in many cases the time can be a hope for those who seek to live a great love, that is, even if today the circumstances aren’t positive, it''s waited to be living a great love with intensity on the long run. Now for others, time can be negative, since if love is too late it can be suffocated or even murdered by the social standards and the people who can’t accept the fact of two individuals living their love story, forbidden or not.The character Raquel will take the reader to a trip into the poems found in the old house. The said poet was depending exclusively on time to be able to live the great love of his life.He found on the poems a way to encode his messages, his desires and to proclaim the love he felt for his beloved. He suffered with the dismissal, the distance and the circumstance. On the other hand, he found joy in hope and the fact of being loved by his other half.Love and time. Two words that can mean so much. Passion and poetry also stand for strength and magic. Let the love lived by the poet shows you that many times we must fight to live the passion and not leave it for later, it can be too late.Learn with Raquel the significance of preserving the history of old times, but above all, of keeping alive a beautiful love story!

Ella también encuentra otros poemas en lugares diferentes y con diferentes personas.El punto de partida de la historia es sobre el interés del personaje central de este libro en querer develar un misterio: ¿Quién es o quién fue el poeta de la casa vieja?En medio de esa trama, una pregunta que frecuentemente nos hacemos a nosotros mismos. ¿El amor y el tiempo es una pareja perfecta o son enemigos? Adelanto que no tengo la respuesta a esa pregunta en este libro, pero el lector podrá reflexionar y sacar sus propias conclusiones.Lo que sabemos es que en muchos casos el tiempo puede una esperanza para quien busca vivir un gran amor, o sea, aunque hoy las circunstancias no sean positivas, se espera con el pasar del tiempo vivir con gran intensidad un gran amor. En cambio para otros, el tiempo puede ser negativo, pues si demora mucho el amor puede ser sofocado y hasta asesinado por las normas de la sociedad y por las personas que no aceptan el hecho de que dos seres vivan su historia de amor, prohibida o no.El personaje de Raquel va a llevar al lector a viajar en los poemas encontrados en la casa vieja. El poeta en cuestión dependía exclusivamente del tiempo para poder vivir el gran amor de su vida.Él encontró en los poemas una forma de codificar sus mensajes, sus deseos y declarar el amor que sentía por su amada. Sufrió con el alejamiento, la distancia y la circunstancia. Por otro lado, él se alegró en esperanza y el hecho de ser amado también por su otra mitad.El amor y el tiempo. Dos palabras que pueden representar muchas cosas. Pasión y poesía también representan fuerza y magia. Deje que el amor vivido por el poeta le muestre a Ud. que muchas veces tenemos que luchar para vivir la pasión y no dejar para después, porque puede ser tarde.Aprenda con Raq

All the chapters in this volume somehow and quite diversely, directly or indirectly, address the relation of Wittgenstein’s philosophy, or at least of Wittgenstein- inspired philosophical thought, with scepticism, here generally envisaged as a many-sided tradition and not as a uniform and once for all established theoretical posture.

The essays presented here are the outcome of research carried out by members of IFILNOVA (Institute for Philosophy of New University of Lisbon) in 2016.The IFILNOVA Permanent Seminar seeks to show how values are relevant to humans (both socially and individually). This seminar is the ‘place’ where different research will converge towards a unified viewpoint. This includes the discussion of the following questions: What is the philosophical contribution to current affairs and decisions that depend crucially on values? Can philosophy make a difference, namely by bringing practical reason to bear on these affairs and decision? And how to do it? Which are our scientific ‘allies’ in this enterprise; psychology, communication sciences, even sociology and history?This volume shows the connection between practical rationality and values and covers the dimensions ethics, aesthetics and politics.
