The Ego and the Id by Sigmund Freud
Freud's place in philosophy is contested by many. Some think that he should be exclusively in the psychology department, some think that he belongs to philosophy, and others think he should be in both. Since this blog is dedicated to philosophical sources and citations, we have compiled a list of citations that are heavy on the philosophy piece of Freud's contributions.

Video:
1) This video lecture series is presented by Dan Robinson of Oxford. He examines Hume's philosophical enquiries through the critiques of Thomas Reid. This series is kind of a two for one, in that, we are presented with Reid's views as well as Hume. In any event, the series is valuable for all levels.
2) An introductory overview of Hume's philosophy. This series does not go into any significant depth, however. So, this series is best viewed by the novice who has had no prior knowledge about Hume's ideas.
3) This lecture series is presented by Peter Millican of Oxford. This series provides an overview of Hume's philosophy without sacrificing depth. This series is worthwhile for people with previous engagement with Hume or for the novice who is picking it up for the first time.

1) Anagnostopoulos, Georgios., ed. A Companion to Aristotle. Malden: Blackwell Publishing, 2013. Print.
Note: This is an anthology. It is not entirely dedicated to Aristotle's "Metaphysics." Part III of the book is dedicated to Aristotle's theoretical knowledge, which includes 7 essays dedicated to examining Aristotle's "Metaphysics." The reason we cite the entire book is because it a valuable resource for research on all things Aristotle.
2) Barnes, Jonathan., ed. The Cambridge Companion to Aristotle. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1995. Print.
Note: This is also an anthology. It is not dedicated entirely to Aristotle's "Metaphysics." Pages 66-108 are dedicated to discussing it, however. Despite it not being entirely dedicated to Aristotle's "Metaphysics," it is still a valuable resource for conducting research.

We usually list valuable and relevant journal articles and other books at this point. However, the Stanford Encyclopedia has already put together an extensive compilation of primary and secondary sources specifically for Aristotle's "Metaphysics." So, we highly recommend anybody doing research on Aristotle's "Metaphysics" to go HERE (link takes you to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy SEP) to get a bird's eye view of the literature. The sources herein, primary and secondary, are enough to get one started but the SEP should not be avoided.
Video:
1) These two videos are by Dr. Arthur F. Holmes of Wheaton College. The lectures are good for beginners and intermediate level students. Undergraduates and graduate students will find these useful. They are, however, probably not best suited for those who already have a substantial background in this field. Nonetheless, they are valuable resources for research.
2) Dr. Sadler provides an introduction to Aristotle's "Metaphysics." This is a purely introductory lecture. A very good lecture but focused on familiarizing beginners with "Metaphysics."
3) These two videos are also by Dr. Sadler and they are also focused on providing beginners with an introduction to Aristotle's "Metaphysics." As a matter of fact, these two videos only cover Book 1 in the "Metaphysics." These videos, however, are valuable for doing research.

8) Emden, Christian J. "Nietzsche's Will to Power: Biology, Naturalism, and Normativity." The Journal of Nietzsche Studies 47.1 (2016): 30-60. Web.
*** The thesis the author defends in this paper can be stated in his own words as such: "The link between the will to power and normativity cannot be explained, however, along the lines of a psychological reading of Nietzsche’s naturalism; rather, Nietzsche’s naturalism is rooted in contemporary biological discussions. Biology comes first, psychology second" (Emden 30).
9) Rehberg, Andrea. "The Overcoming of Physiology." The Journal of Nietzsche Studies 23 (2002): 39-50. Web.
***The author makes an argument about why she thinks physiology and the will to power thesis are synonymous with another. Any distinction between the two "is a matter of emphasis rather than due to a strong conceptual separation" (Rehberg 39).
