The Emergence of Sexuality: Historical Epistemology and the Formation of Concepts
ISBN: 9780674013704 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In a book that moves between philosophy and history, and with lasting significance for both, Arnold Davidson elaborates a powerful new method for considering the history of concepts and the nature of scientific knowledge, a method he calls "historical epistemology." He applies this method to the history of sexuality, with important consequences for our understanding of desire, abnormality, and sexuality itself. In Davidson's view, it was the emergence of a science of sexuality that made it possible, even inevitable, for us to become preoccupied with our true sexuality. Historical...

ISBN: 9781403986610 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. These thirteen lectures on the 'punitive society,' delivered at the College de France in the first three months of 1973, examine the way in which the relations between justice and truth that govern modern penal law were forged, and question what links them to the emergence of a new punitive regime that still dominates contemporary society.

Coyote Country: Fictions of the Canadian West
ISBN: 9780822314691 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For most North Americans--Canadians as well as Americans--the term "Western" evokes images of the frontier, brave sheriffs and ruthless outlaws, good cowboys and bad Indians. As Arnold E. Davidson shows in this groundbreaking study, a number of Canada's most interesting and experimental Western writers parody, reverse, or otherwise defuse the paraphernalia of the classic U.S. Western. Lacking both a real and imagined frontier--Canadian settlers rode trains into the new territory, already policed by Mounties--the writers of Canadian Westerns were set a different task from their American...

The Late Derrida
ISBN: 9780226532578 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The rubric The Late Derrida, with all puns and ambiguities cheerfully intended, points to the late work of Jacques Derrida, the vast outpouring of new writing by and about him in the period roughly from 1994 to 2004. In this period Derrida published more than he had produced during his entire career up to that point. At the same time, this volume deconstructs the whole question of lateness and the usefulness of periodization. It calls into question the fact of his turn to politics, law, and ethics and highlights continuities throughout his oeuvre. The rubric The Late Derrida, with all puns and ambiguities cheerfully intended, points to the late work of Jacques Derrida, the vast outpouring of ... |

About the Beginning of the Hermeneutics of the Self: Lectures at Dartmouth College, 1980
ISBN: 9780226188546 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In 1980, Michel Foucault began a vast project of research on the relationship between subjectivity and truth, an examination of conscience, confession, and truth-telling that would become a crucial feature of his life-long work on the relationship between knowledge, power, and the self. The lectures published here offer one of the clearest pathways into this project, contrasting Greco-Roman techniques of the self with those of early Christian monastic culture in order to uncover, in the latter, the historical origin of many of the features that still characterize the modern subject. They are...

Plotinus or the Simplicity of Vision
ISBN: 9780226311944 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 145 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Since its original publication in France in 1963, Pierre Hadot's lively philosophical portrait of Plotinus remains the preeminent introduction to the man and his thought. Michael Chase's lucid translation-complete with a useful chronology and analytical bibliography-at last makes this book available to the English-speaking world.
Hadot carefully examines Plotinus's views on the self, existence, love, virtue, gentleness, and solitude. He shows that Plotinus, like other philosophers of his day, believed that Plato and Aristotle had already articulated the essential truths; for him, the...
