Memory and Enlightenment
This book illuminates how the ‘long eighteenth century’ (1660-1800) persists in our present through screen and performance media, writing and visual art. Tracing the afterlives of the period from the 1980s to the present, it argues that these emerging and changing forms stage the period as a point of origin for the grounding of individual identity in personal memory, and as a site of foundational traumas that shape cultural memory.

Two illusions prevent us from realizing our true nature—one external and one internal. The external illusion is the universe we perceive; the internal illusion is the mind. From a classical perspective, the external world appears orderly and predictable. But when we venture into the quantum realm, chaos emerges. The laws that govern the classical world collapse into uncertainty and probability. Despite our scientific advances, we still don’t fully understand why these two realities differ so dramatically. The internal illusion—the mind—works in reverse. On the surface, it feels chaotic, restless, and random. But when we look deeper, we begin to uncover stillness, peace, and divine clarity. This book explores profound questions such as: What is enlightenment? How is the mind connected to enlightenment? What is the true nature of the mind? Why do we experience thoughts and dreams? Why are negative or overwhelming thoughts so persistent? How can we suppress the mind? How does inner peace affect our thoughts? What spiritual forces influence the mind and mood? What is the “present mind”? Are there different types of thoughts—and how do we recognize them? What is the one essential spiritual practice that can lead to true enlightenment? The Power of Mind: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment is a journey inward—a gentle, yet radical invitation to understand the mind, dissolve illusion, and awaken to the truth of who you are.
Human Rights and Memory
Memories of historical events like the Holocaust have played a key role in the internationalization of human rights. Their importance lies in their ability to bridge the universal and the particular—the universality of human values and the particularity of memories rooted in local human experiences. In Human Rights and Memory, Levy and Sznaider trace the growth of human rights discourse since World War II and interpret its deployment of memories as a new form of cosmopolitanism, exemplifying a dynamic through which global concerns become part of local experiences, and vice versa.
