The Crisis of the Human Sciences: False Objectivity and the Decline of Creativity
ISBN: 9781443833530 / Twarda / 2011 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Centralization and over-professionalization can lead to the disappearance of a critical environment capable of linking the human sciences to the “real world.” The authors of this volume suggest that the humanities need to operate in a concrete cultural environment able to influence procedures on a hic et nunc basis, and that they should not entirely depend on normative criteria whose function is often to hide ignorance behind a pretentious veil of value-neutral objectivity.
In sociology, the growth of scientism has fragmented ethical categories and distorted discourse between our... Centralization and over-professionalization can lead to the disappearance of a critical environment capable of linking the human sciences to the “re...

Organic Cinema: Film, Architecture, and the Work of Béla Tarr
ISBN: 9781785335662 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The "organic" is by now a venerable concept within aesthetics, architecture, and art history, but what might such a term mean within the spatialities and temporalities of film? By way of an answer, this concise and innovative study locates organicity in the work of Bela Tarr, the renowned Hungarian filmmaker and pioneer of the "slow cinema" movement. Through a wholly original analysis of the long take and other signature features of Tarr's work, author Thorsten Botz-Bornstein establishes compelling links between the seemingly remote spheres of film and architecture, revealing shared...

Films and Dreams: Tarkovsky, Bergman, Sokurov, Kubrick, and Wong Kar-Wai
ISBN: 9780739121870 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Films and Dreams considers the essential link between films and the world of dreams. To discuss dream theory in the context of film studies means moving from the original, clinical context within which dream theory was originally developed to an environment established by primarily aesthetic concerns. Botz-Bornstein deals with dreams as "self-sufficient" phenomena that are interesting not because of their contents but because of the "dreamtense" through which they deploy their being. A diverse selection of films are examined in this light: Tarkovsky's anti-realism exploring the domain of the...

Veils, Nudity, and Tattoos: The New Feminine Aesthetics
ISBN: 9781498500463 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. At first sight, tattoos, nudity, and veils do not seem to have much in common except for the fact that all three have become more frequent, more visible, and more dominant in connection with aesthetic presentations of women over the past thirty years. No longer restricted to biker and sailor culture, tattoos have been sanctioned by the mainstream of liberal societies. Nudity has become more visible than ever on European beaches or on the internet. The increased use of the veil by women in Muslim and non-Muslim countries has developed in parallel with the aforementioned phenomena and is just...

The Philosophy of Viagra: Bioethical Responses to the Viagrification of the Modern World
ISBN: 9789042033368 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 227 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The impotency remedy Viagra is the fastest selling drug in history. It has grown beyond being simply a medical phenomenon, but has achieved the status of cultural icon, appearing on television as a pretext for jokes or even as a murder weapon. Viagra has socio-cultural implications that are not limited to sexuality. The Philosophy of Viagra offers a unique perspective as it examines the phenomenon of Viagra through ideas derived from more than two thousand years of philosophical reasoning. In philosophy, Eros has always had a central position. Since Plato, philosophy has held that desire is...

Culture, Nature, Memes
ISBN: 9781847186638 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 235 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This collection of essays on cognition, which involves continental as much as analytical approaches, attempts to observe cognitive processes in three areas: in culture, in nature, and in an area that can – at least from some point of view – be perceived as an “in-between” of culture and nature: memes. All authors introduce a certain dynamic input in cognitive theory, as they negotiate between the empirical and the conceptual, or between epistemology and the study of culture. In all chapters, culture, nature, and memes turn out to be dynamic in the sense of being non-essentialist,...

The Cool-Kawaii: Afro-Japanese Aesthetics and New World Modernity
ISBN: 9780739148457 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. At the turn of the millennium, international youth culture is dominated by mainly two types of aesthetics: the African American cool, which, propelled by Hip-Hop music, has become the world's favorite youth culture; and the Japanese aesthetics of kawaii or cute, that is distributed internationally by Japan's powerful anime industry. The USA and Japan are cultural superpowers and global trendsetters because they make use of two particular concepts that hide complex structures under their simple surfaces and are difficult to define, but continue to fascinate the world: cool and kawaii. The...
