The Open: Man and Animal
ISBN: 9780804747387 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The end of human history is an event that has been foreseen or announced by both messianics and dialecticians. But who is the protagonist of that history that is coming--or has come--to a close? What is man? How did he come on the scene? And how has he maintained his privileged place as the master of, or first among, the animals? In The Open, contemporary Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben considers the ways in which the -human- has been thought of as either a distinct and superior type of animal, or a kind of being that is essentially different from animal altogether. In an argument...

The Highest Poverty: Monastic Rules and Form-Of-Life
ISBN: 9780804784061 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What is a rule, if it appears to become confused with life? And what is a human life, if, in every one of its gestures, of its words, and of its silences, it cannot be distinguished from the rule? It is to these questions that Agamben's new book turns by means of an impassioned reading of the fascinating and massive phenomenon of Western monasticism from Pachomius to St. Francis. The book reconstructs in detail the life of the monks with their obsessive attention to temporal articulation and to the Rule, to ascetic techniques and to liturgy. But Agamben's thesis is that the true novelty of...

Opus Dei: An Archaeology of Duty
ISBN: 9780804784047 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this follow-up to The Kingdom and the Glory and The Highest Poverty, Agamben investigates the roots of our moral concept of duty in the theory and practice of Christian liturgy. Beginning with the New Testament and working through to late scholasticism and modern papal encyclicals, Agamben traces the Church's attempts to repeat Christ's unrepeatable sacrifice. Crucial here is the paradoxical figure of the priest, who becomes more and more a pure instrument of God's power, so that his own motives and character are entirely indifferent as long as he carries out his priestly...

The Time That Remains: A Commentary on the Letter to the Romans
ISBN: 9780804743822 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In The Time That Remains, Agamben seeks to separate the Pauline texts from the history of the Church that canonized them, thus revealing them to be "the fundamental messianic texts of the West." He argues that Paul's letters are concerned not with the foundation of a new religion but rather with the "messianic" abolition of Jewish law. Situating Paul's texts in the context of early Jewish messianism, this book is part of a growing set of recent critiques devoted to the period when Judaism and Christianity were not yet fully distinct, placing Paul in the context of what has been called...

Pinokio. Przygody pajacyka podwójnie skomentowane i potrójnie zilustrowane
ISBN: 9788365787835 / Polski / twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. Ostatnia strona książki zawiera zagadkę, nad którą powinniśmy się zastanowić. Pajacyk nie przemienił się w gruncie rzeczy w chłopca, lecz stoi – wcale nie ukryty, przeciwnie, dobrze widoczny – oparty o krzesło, a nowy chłopiec może mu się przyglądać do woli, twierdząc, że jest „śmieszny”. Obie natury – marionetkowa i ludzka, które tyle razy krzyżowały się w książce – pozostają rozdzielone, obie obecne w bliżej nieokreślonym „pokoju obok”, który, jeśli się dobrze przyjrzeć, jest warsztatem Geppetta, idealnie odpowiadającym „pokoikowi na...

The End of the Poem: Studies in Poetics
ISBN: 9780804730228 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book, by one of Italy's most important and original contemporary philosophers, represents a broad, general, and ambitious undertaking-nothing less than an attempt to rethink the nature of poetic language and to rearticulate relationships among theology, poetry, and philosophy in a tradition of literature initiated by Dante.

The Sacrament of Language
ISBN: 9780745649726 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Oaths play an essential part in the political and religious history of the West as a 'sacrament of power'. Yet despite numerous studies by linguists, anthropologists and historians of law and of religion, there exists no complete analysis of the oath which seeks to explain the strategic function that this phenomenon has performed at the intersection of law, religion and politics.
The oath seems to define man himself as a political animal, but what is an oath and from where does it originate? Taking this question as its point of departure, Giorgio Agamben's book develops a pathbreaking...

The Mystery of Evil: Benedict XVI and the End of Days
ISBN: 9781503602731 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In 2013, Benedict XVI became only the second pope in the history of the Catholic Church to resign from office. In this brief but illuminating study, Giorgio Agamben argues that Benedict's gesture, far from being solely a matter of internal ecclesiastical politics, is exemplary in an age when the question of legitimacy has been virtually left aside in favor of a narrow focus on legality. This reflection on the recent history of the Church opens out into an analysis of one of the earliest documents of Christianity: the Second Epistle to the Thessalonians, which stages a dramatic...

Stasis: Civil War as a Political Paradigm
ISBN: 9780804797313 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. We can no longer speak of a state of war in any traditional sense, yet there is currently no viable theory to account for the manifold internal conflicts, or civil wars, that increasingly afflict the world's populations. Meant as a first step toward such a theory, Giorgio Agamben's latest book looks at how civil war was conceived of at two crucial moments in the history of Western thought: in ancient Athens (from which the political concept of stasis emerges) and later, in the work of Thomas Hobbes. It identifies civil war as the fundamental threshold of politicization in the West, an...

Language and Death: The Place of Negativity Volume 78
ISBN: 9780816649235 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. A formidable and influential work, Language and Death sheds a highly original light on issues central to Continental philosophy, literary theory, deconstruction, hermeneutics, and speech-act theory. Focusing especially on the incompatible philosophical systems of Hegel and Heidegger within the space of negativity, Giorgio Agamben offers a rigorous reading of numerous philosophical and poetic works to examine how these issues have been traditionally explored. Agamben argues that the human being is not just "speaking" and "mortal" but irreducibly "social" and "ethical."Giorgio Agamben teaches...

Nudities
ISBN: 9780804769501 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Encompassing a wide range of subjects, the ten masterful essays gathered here may at first appear unrelated to one another. In truth, Giorgio Agamben's latest book is a mosaic of his most pressing concerns. Take a step backward after reading it from cover to cover, and a world of secret affinities between the chapters slowly comes into focus. Take another step back, and it becomes another indispensable piece of the finely nuanced philosophy that Agamben has been patiently constructing over four decades of sustained research. If nudity is unconcealment, or the absence of all veils, then...

Cy Twombly: Photographs IV
ISBN: 9783829605892 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. -As his final creative surprise, Cy Twombly, one of the greatest 20th-century artists, has given to the world a huge body of photographic works emphasizing his unique artistic vision.
Contrary to his sharp and teeming drawings his photographs are not sharp at all. They are colorful, soft, and warm and generate a painterly impression. Their coloring is as unique as their fine sense of composition. The photographs reveal the artist's vision embedded both in the world of objects and the nature that surrounds him. His own artistic creations and collection of art objects in his various... -As his final creative surprise, Cy Twombly, one of the greatest 20th-century artists, has given to the world a huge body of photographic works emphas...
