A hero of both Thoreau and Emerson, who admired both his political and his nature writing, Nathaniel Rogers was perhaps the most radical American of the 19th century: a pacifist, anarchist, anti-racist, anti-sexist, and advocate of animal rights. This volume represents the rediscovery of one of the greatest and most characteristic writers of American transcendentalism. 'But to speak of his composition. It is a genuine Yankee style, without fiction - real guessing and calculating to some purpose. It has a life above grammar, and a meaning which need not be parsed to be understood. . We deem...

The Practical Anarchist: Writings of Josiah Warren
ISBN: 9780823233700 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) The Practical Anarchist brings to light the work of Josiah Warren, eccentric American genius. Devoting his life to showing the practicality of an astonishing ideal, Warren devoted equal industry to the question of how to make a pair of shoes and how to remake the social world into an individualist paradise. This will be the first chance for many readers to encounter Warren's writings, and in many cases their first publication since their original appearance in obscure, self-published periodicals, including The Peaceful Revolutionist (1833), the first American anarchist periodical. Moreover,...

End of Story
ISBN: 9780791447260 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In End of Story, Crispin Sartwell maintains that the academy is obsessed with language, and with narrative in particular. Narrative has been held to constitute or explain time, action, value, history, and human identity. Sartwell argues that this obsession with language and narrative has become a sort of disease. Pitting such thinkers as Kierkegaard, Bataille, and Epictetus against the narrativism of MacIntyre, Ricoeur, and Aristotle, Sartwell celebrates the ways narratives and selves disintegrate and recommends a lapse into ecstatic or mundane incoherence. As the book rollicks through...

Political Aesthetics
ISBN: 9780801448904 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) "I suggest that although at any given place and moment the aesthetic expressions of a political system just are that political system, the concepts are separable. Typically, aesthetic aspects of political systems shift in their meaning over time, or even are inverted or redeployed with an entirely transformed effect. You cannot understand politics without understanding the aesthetics of politics, but you cannot understand aesthetics as politics. The point is precisely to show the concrete nodes at which two distinct discourses coincide or connive, come apart or coalesce." from...

ACT Like You Know: African-American Autobiography and White Identity
ISBN: 9780226735276 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Frederick Douglass, Harriet Jacobs, W.E.B. DuBois, Zora Neale Hurston, Malcolm X their words speak firmly, eloquently, personally of the impact of white America on the lives of African-Americans. Black autobiographical discourses, from the earliest slave narratives to the most contemporary urban raps, have each in their own way gauged and confronted the character of white society. For Crispin Sartwell, as philosopher, cultural critic, and white male, these texts, through their exacting insights and external perspective, provide a rare opportunity, a means of glimpsing and gaining access to...

Obscenity, Anarchy, Reality
ISBN: 9780791429082 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 191 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Sartwell presents an extreme and provocative philosophy of life. He explores what happens if we love this world precisely as it is, with all of its pain, with all of its evil, with all of its bizarre and arbitrary and monstrous thereness. In a highly personal and brutally direct style, Sartwell explores the themes of transgressive sexuality, political anarchism, addiction, death, and embodiment. The author engages contemporary and historical debates in cultural criticism, metaphysics, ethics, and political philosophy, and expresses deep suspicions about them. He asserts that scientific...

Against the State: An Introduction to Anarchist Political Theory
ISBN: 9780791474488 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In Against the State, Crispin Sartwell unleashes a quick and brutal rejection of the traditional arguments for state legitimacy. Sartwell considers the classics of Western political philosophy--Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, Hegel, Hume, Bentham, Rawls, and Habermas, among others--and argues that their positions are not only wrong but also embarrassingly bad. He separates the traditional pro-state arguments into three classes: social contract theories, utilitarian justifications, and justicial views, all while attacking both general strategies and particular formulations. Sartwell argues that the...

Six Names of Beauty
ISBN: 9781138136816 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Beauty may be in the eye of the beholder, but it's also in the language we use and everywhere in the world around us. In this elegant, witty, and ultimately profound meditation on what is beautiful, Crispin Sartwell begins with six words from six different cultures - ancient Greek's 'to kalon', the Japanese idea of 'wabi-sabi', Hebrew's 'yapha', the Navajo concept 'hozho', Sanskrit 'sundara', and our own English-language 'beauty'. Each word becomes a door onto another way of thinking about, and looking at, what is beautiful in the world, and in our lives. In Sartwell's hands these...

Twenty-one essays are reprinted here, including her classic works: "Anarchism and the American Tradition," "The Dominant Idea," and "Sex Slavery." Three biographical essays are also included: two new ones by Sharon Presley and Crispin Sartwell,...
