Here We Go Again....: They Always Tell The Truth....Even When They Lie!
ISBN: 9781495939365 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 450 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) To thine own self to be true, but this is never the case when we have high expectations of love. We see everything and comprehend nothing that's going on in a relationship. All the "Red Flags" that warn us of loss of interest, disrespect and infidelity are often ignored because we don't want to acknowledge it. Realizing the happenstance would be to admit our desires will go unfulfilled. So the average person keeps their eyes closed until the inevitable separation occurs. Only then do we wake up and see reality for what it really was. Due to the fact that around the world, someone, somewhere,...

Heidegger and Literary Studies
ISBN: 9781316513101 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Martin Heidegger is one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th Century, and a key philosophical resource for literary critics.

It offers Heidegger's perspective on a range of key themes, topics, poets, and writers, including Poetry and Poetics, Ancient Greek theatre...

ISBN: 9780415133869 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. An understanding of what we mean by the present is one of the key issues in literature, philosophy, and culture today, but also one of the most neglected and misunderstood. Present Hope develops a fascinating philosophical understanding of the present, approaching this question via discussions of the nature of historical time, the philosophy of history, memory, and the role of tragedy.
Andrew Benjamin shows how we misleadingly view the present as simply a product of chronological time, ignoring the role of history and memory. Accordingly, discussion of what is meant by the present...

Place, Commonality and Judgment: Continental Philosophy and the Ancient Greeks
ISBN: 9781441112873 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this important and highly original book, place, commonality and judgment provide the framework within which works central to the Greek philosophical and literary tradition are usefully located and reinterpreted. Greek life, it can be argued, was defined by the interconnection of place, commonality and judgment. Similarly within the Continental philosophical tradition topics such as place, judgment, law and commonality have had a pervasive centrality. Works by Jacques Derrida and Giorgio Agamben amongst others attest to the current exigency of these topics. Yet the ways in which they...

Art, Mimesis and the Avant-Garde: Aspects of a Philosophy of Difference
ISBN: 9780415066273 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book explores the relationship between art and philosophy. Andrew Benjamin argues for a reworking of the task of philosophy in terms of the centrality of ontology. It is in relation to this centrality, understood through the differences between modes of being, that art, mimesis and the avant-garde come to be presented. A fundamental part of this book is the original interpretations of important contemporary painters and their paintings: Lucian Freud's self-portraits, Francis Bacon's use of mirrors, R.B. Kitaj and Jewish identity, and Anselm Kiefer and iconoclasm. Apart from painting,...

Art's Philosophical Work
ISBN: 9781783482894 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) What is the work of art? How does art work as art? Andrew Benjamin contends that the only way to address these questions is by developing a radically new materialist philosophy of art, and by rethinking the history of art from within that perspective. A materialist philosophy of art starts with the contention that meaning is only ever the after effect of the way in which materials work. Starting with the relation between history, materials and work (art's work), this book opens up a highly original reconfiguration of the philosophy of art. Benjamin undertakes a major project that seeks to...

Working with Walter Benjamin: Recovering a Political Philosophy
ISBN: 9780748634347 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book provides a highly original approach to the writings of the twentieth-century German philosopher Walter Benjamin by one of his most distinguished readers. It develops the idea of 'working with' Benjamin, seeking both to read his corpus and to put it to work - to show how a reading of Benjamin can open up issues that may not themselves be immediately at stake in his texts. The defining elements in Benjamin's writings that Andrew Benjamin isolates - history, experience, translation, technical reproducibility and politics - are put to work; that is, their utility is established in...

Translation and the Nature of Philosophy (Routledge Revivals): A New Theory of Words
ISBN: 9781138779136 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This engrossing study, first published in 1989, explores the basic mutuality between philosophy and translation. By studying the conceptions of translation in Plato, Seneca, Davidson, Walter Benjamin and Freud, Andrew Benjamin reveals the interplay between the two disciplines not only in their relationship to language, but also at a deeper, cognitive level. Benjamin engages throughout with the central tenets of post-structuralism: the concept of a constant yet illusive true meaning has lost authority, but remains a problem. The fact of translation seems to defy the notion that... This engrossing study, first published in 1989, explores the basic mutuality between philosophy and translation.

Theodor Adorno and Walter Benjamin have emerged as figures of great importance in the current debates about modernity. The central and privileged place of the philosophical problem of modernity has been threatened by the possibility advanced by Jean-Francois Lyotard that modernity as a project is over and the new concern is the postmodern. The work of Adorno and Benjamin is the background against which the problems of modernity and postmodernity are addressed in this volume.
