Opus Dei: An Archaeology of Duty
ISBN: 9780804784030 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this follow-up to The Kingdom and the Glory and The Highest Poverty, Agamben investigates the roots of our moral concept of duty in the theory and practice of Christian liturgy. Beginning with the New Testament and working through to late scholasticism and modern papal encyclicals, Agamben traces the Church's attempts to repeat Christ's unrepeatable sacrifice. Crucial here is the paradoxical figure of the priest, who becomes more and more a pure instrument of God's power, so that his own motives and character are entirely indifferent as long as he carries out his priestly...

The Open: Man and Animal
ISBN: 9780804747387 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The end of human history is an event that has been foreseen or announced by both messianics and dialecticians. But who is the protagonist of that history that is coming--or has come--to a close? What is man? How did he come on the scene? And how has he maintained his privileged place as the master of, or first among, the animals? In The Open, contemporary Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben considers the ways in which the -human- has been thought of as either a distinct and superior type of animal, or a kind of being that is essentially different from animal altogether. In an argument...

The Highest Poverty: Monastic Rules and Form-Of-Life
ISBN: 9780804784061 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What is a rule, if it appears to become confused with life? And what is a human life, if, in every one of its gestures, of its words, and of its silences, it cannot be distinguished from the rule? It is to these questions that Agamben's new book turns by means of an impassioned reading of the fascinating and massive phenomenon of Western monasticism from Pachomius to St. Francis. The book reconstructs in detail the life of the monks with their obsessive attention to temporal articulation and to the Rule, to ascetic techniques and to liturgy. But Agamben's thesis is that the true novelty of...

The Time That Remains: A Commentary on the Letter to the Romans
ISBN: 9780804743822 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In The Time That Remains, Agamben seeks to separate the Pauline texts from the history of the Church that canonized them, thus revealing them to be "the fundamental messianic texts of the West." He argues that Paul's letters are concerned not with the foundation of a new religion but rather with the "messianic" abolition of Jewish law. Situating Paul's texts in the context of early Jewish messianism, this book is part of a growing set of recent critiques devoted to the period when Judaism and Christianity were not yet fully distinct, placing Paul in the context of what has been called...

Wenn das Haus brennt
ISBN: 9783962730543 / Niemiecki / Book / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Agambens Buch 'Die kommende Gemeinschaft', 1990 bei Giulio Einaudi erschienen, war der Versuch, mittels einer Retraktation seiner bisherigen Schriften auf die die trägen 1980er Jahre abrupt beendenden »Ereignisse« vom Tiananmen zu reagieren. Exakt dreißig Jahre und neun Homo-sacer-Bände später erschien im Jahr 2020 mit 'Quando la casa brucia' eine zweite, ebenso hochverdichtete Summe seines Denkens. Auf vier Abschnitte verteilt handeln knapp hundert Denkstücke - ob als lose Aphorismen, ob dem Muster der Tenebrae-Lamentationen folgend oder zu kurzen Kapiteln sich gruppierend - von dem,...

The Use of Bodies
ISBN: 9780804798402 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Giorgio Agamben's Homo Sacer was one of the seminal works of political philosophy in recent decades. It was also the beginning of a series of interconnected investigations of staggering ambition and scope, investigating the deepest foundations of Western politics and thought. The Use of Bodies represents the ninth and final volume in this twenty-year undertaking, breaking considerable new ground while clarifying the stakes and implications of the project as a whole. It comprises three major sections. The first uses Aristotle's discussion of slavery as a starting point...

Karman: A Brief Treatise on Action, Guilt, and Gesture
ISBN: 9781503605824 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What does it mean to be responsible for our actions? In this brief and elegant study, Giorgio Agamben traces our most profound moral intuitions back to their roots in the sphere of law and punishment. Moral accountability, free human agency, and even the very concept of cause and effect all find their origin in the language of the trial, which Western philosophy and theology both transform into the paradigm for all of human life. In his search for a way out of this destructive paradigm, Agamben draws not only on minority opinions within the Western tradition but engages at length with...

The Sacrament of Language
ISBN: 9780745649726 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Oaths play an essential part in the political and religious history of the West as a 'sacrament of power'. Yet despite numerous studies by linguists, anthropologists and historians of law and of religion, there exists no complete analysis of the oath which seeks to explain the strategic function that this phenomenon has performed at the intersection of law, religion and politics.
The oath seems to define man himself as a political animal, but what is an oath and from where does it originate? Taking this question as its point of departure, Giorgio Agamben's book develops a pathbreaking...

State of Exception
ISBN: 9780226009247 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Two months after the attacks of 9/11, the Bush administration, in the midst of what it perceived to be a state of emergency, authorized the indefinite detention of noncitizens suspected of terrorist activities and their subsequent trials by a military commission. Here, distinguished Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben uses such circumstances to argue that this unusual extension of power, or "state of exception," has historically been an underexamined and powerful strategy that has the potential to transform democracies into totalitarian states.
The sequel to Agamben's Homo Sacer:... Two months after the attacks of 9/11, the Bush administration, in the midst of what it perceived to be a state of emergency, authorized the indefinite...

This book, by one of Italy's most important and original contemporary philosophers, represents a broad, general, and ambitious undertaking-nothing less than an attempt to rethink the nature of poetic language and to rearticulate relationships among theology, poetry, and philosophy in a tradition of literature initiated by Dante.
