From David Carr (1956-2015), the "undeniably brilliant and dogged journalist" (Entertainment Weekly) and author of the instant New York Times bestseller that the Chicago Sun-Times called "a compelling tale of drug abuse, despair, and, finally, hope."

Interpreting Husserl: Critical and Comparative Studies
ISBN: 9789401081085 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Edmund Husserl's importance for the philosophy of our century is immense, but his influence has followed a curious path. Rather than continuous it has been recurrent, ambulatory and somehow irrepressible: no sooner does it wane in one locality than it springs up in another. After playing a major role in Germany during his lifetime, Husserl had been filed away in the history-books of that country when he was discovered by the French during and after World War II. And just as the phenomenological phase of French philosophy was ending in the 1960's, Husserl became important in North America....

Experience and History: Phenomenological Perspectives on the Historical World
ISBN: 9780199377657 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. David Carr outlines a distinctively phenomenological approach to history. Rather than asking what history is or how we know history, a phenomenology of history inquires into history as a phenomenon and into the experience of the historical. How does history present itself to us, how does it enter our lives, and what are the forms of experience in which it does so? History is usually associated with social existence and its past, and so Carr probes the experience of the social world and of its temporality. Experience in this context connotes not just observation but also involvement and...

Education, Knowledge and Truth: Beyond the Postmodern Impasse
ISBN: 9780415163170 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This collection aims to explore different conceptions of epistemological inquiry and their influence on pedagogy and the curricular content of primary and secondary education. It is arguable that curriculum policy makers have continued to subscribe to a foundationalist paradigm of rational educational planning. This is, however, considered largely untenable by educational philosophers in light of the impact of 'postmodern' philsophical critiques on the notions of objectivity, truth and authority in our claims for knowledge. This volume fills a major gap in the current literature of...

The Paradox of Subjectivity: The Self in the Transcendental Tradition
ISBN: 9780195126907 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Much effort in recent philosophy has been devoted to attacking the metaphysics of the subject. Identified largely with French post-structuralist thought, yet stemming primarily from the influential work of the later Heidegger, this attack has taken the form of a sweeping denunciation of the whole tradition of modern philosophy from Descartes through Nietzsche, Husserl, and Existentialism. In this timely study, David Carr contends that this discussion has overlooked and eventually lost sight of the distinction between modern metaphysics and the tradition of transcendental philosophy...

Formation of the Hebrew Bible: A New Reconstruction
ISBN: 9780199742608 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 544 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In The Formation of the Hebrew Bible David Carr rethinks both the methods and historical orientation points for research into the growth of the Hebrew Bible into its present form. Building on his prior work, Writing on the Tablet of the Heart (Oxford, 2005), he explores both the possibilities and limits of reconstruction of pre-stages of the Bible. The method he advocates is a ''methodologically modest'' investigation of those pre-stages, utilizing criteria and models derived from his survey of documented examples of textual revision in the Ancient Near East. The result is a...

Writing on the Tablet of the Heart Origins of Scripture and Literature
ISBN: 9780195382426 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book explores a new model for the production, revision, and reception of Biblical texts as Scripture. Building on recent studies of the oralwritten interface in medieval, Greco-Roman and ancient Near Eastern contexts, David Carr argues that in ancient Israel Biblical texts and other texts emerged as a support for an educational process in which written and oral dimensions were integrally intertwined. The point was not incising and reading texts on parchment or papyrus. The point was to enculturate ancient Israelites -- particularly Israelite elites -- by training them to memorize and...
