The Metaphysics Of The School is a philosophical book written by Thomas Harper in 1881. The book is a comprehensive study of the metaphysical concepts and theories developed by the Schoolmen, a group of medieval philosophers who were active from the 11th to the 17th century. The book explores the various aspects of metaphysics such as substance, causality, essence, and existence, and how these concepts were developed and refined by the Schoolmen. The author also examines the different schools of thought within the Schoolmen, including the Thomists, Scotists, and Nominalists, and how they contributed to the development of metaphysics. The book is written in a clear and concise style and is intended for both students and scholars of philosophy who are interested in the history of metaphysical thought.

This is the story of a few men who valued justice more than life. They were members of the large Corps of Samurai in the feudal domain of Akô in western Japan. But when their lord committed the crime of drawing his sword within the castle of the Shogun, the law decreed that he should be sentenced to death, that his heir would not inherit the domain, and all of his vassals would become ronin, evicted from their homes and deprived of their income. All 308 samurai in Akô knew the law and accepted it. And if their lord had succeeded in killing the man he attacked in the castle that would have been the tragic end of this episode. But their lord was subdued and failed to kill his enemy; which meant that yet another law came into play: the Principle of Equal Punishment. 47: The True Story of the Vendetta of the 47 Ronin from Akô tells the harrowing tale of how all this was argued, what the consequences were, and what ultimately became of those forty-seven men who remained. 47 Ronin tells the tale in immense detail--with maps, graphics, and gorgeous illustrations.
