Managing Modernity: Politics and the Culture of Control
ISBN: 9780415348058 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In the last thirty years, the USA and the UK have witnessed a profound change in the way in which we think about and respond to crime and social control. Crime has become part of everyday life as, for many citizens, has imprisonment.
Managing Modernity brings together criminologists, social theorists, and philosophers to consider what explains these changes and what they tell us about ourselves and the way in which we live. The authors consider the pervasive, the obvious, and the covert ways in which crime and social order have come to structure social discourses and social life,...

In this lively and accessible book, Matt Matravers considers the highly contested role of responsibility in politics, morality, and the law.

Art and Emotion
ISBN: 9780199243167 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Emotions very often form a bridge between our experience of art and of life. We frequently find that a particular poem, painting, or piece of music carries an emotional charge; we may even experience emotions towards, or on behalf of, a fictional character. These experiences are philosophically puzzling, for their causes seem quite different from the causes of emotion in the rest of our lives. Here, Derek Matravers shows that what these experiences have in common, and what links them to the expression of emotion in non-artistic cases, is the role of feelings. He analyzes various accounts of...

Fiction and Narrative
ISBN: 9780199647019 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For the past twenty years there has been a virtual consensus in philosophy that there is a special link between fiction and the imagination. In particular, fiction has been defined in terms of the imagination: what it is for something to be fictional is that there is some requirement that a reader imagine it. Derek Matravers argues that this rests on a mistake; the proffered definitions of 'the imagination' do not link it with fiction but with representations more generally. In place of the flawed consensus, he offers an account of what it is to read, listen to, or watch a narrative whether...

Fiction and Narrative
ISBN: 9780198776604 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Do fictions depend upon imagination? Derek Matravers argues against the mainstream view that they do, and offers an original account of what it is to read, listen to, or watch a narrative. He downgrades the divide between fiction and non-fiction, largely dispenses with the imagination, and in doing so illuminates a succession of related issues.
