Radical
Metaphysics (2003) A statement about the metaphysical nature
of the human condition and a critique of analytical-technological culture.
Finally, I believe my true voice has emerged. Xlibris, pp. 172. Reverence
for the Soul (2001) The title reveals the point of view. A precursor
to Radical Metaphysics. There is not an iota of theology in this
writing. Xlibris, pp. 209. The Legend of Nietzsche’s
Syphilis (2001) A scholarly work designed to erase the belief that
Nietzsche’s brain was infested with syphilis. The last chapter contains
my eulogy to a great spirit, albeit one with human frailties. Westport,
Conn.: Greenwood Press, pp. 130. Souls Exist (1988)
An early effort of mine on the subject of the metaphysical self. The fact
that thirteen years separates it from Reverence for the Soul indicates
the slow pace of my metaphysical development. Glen Ellen, CA: Garric Press,
pp. 104, $12. * Fanatic of the
Mind (1987) A concise personal statement that is still a favorite
of mine. Here are to be found many features of my intellectual autobiography.
Glen Ellen, CA: Garric Press, pp. 73, $10. * Philosophical Artwork
(1983) This is primarily a historical work as seen through my own lens.
It contains an essay entitled "The Meaning of the Erotic Impulse,"
which is perhaps its most valuable content. If for no other reason, its
existence is justified by the poems it contains, especially since I have
lost the capacity for poetic expression. Glen Ellen, CA: Garric Press,
pp. 161, $15. * Affirmations of
Reality (1982) A breakout writing affirming my liberation from the
oppression of professional and paterfamilias existence. Everything I have
done since can be found here in embryonic form. Glen Ellen, CA: Garric
Press, pp. 113, $12. * A Contemporary
Logos, Sententiae, Sentences in Small Spaces — all self-published
around 1984. These are pamphlets containing my aphorisms, which I still
consider as the highest form of philosophical expression. $3 each, $7
for all three. * All titles are available at amazon.com except for asterisked publications, which
can be obtained directly from the author. See Contact Info. Please make
checks payable to Richard Schain. |
