ISBN: 9783030749484 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Un)timely Crises explores how ‘crisis’—as a narrative, concept, grammar, and experience—structures time and space. This collectively written volume extends Bakhtin’s ‘chronotope’ to challenge mobilizations of crisis within neoliberal governmentality. The book explores how contemporary crises can trigger memories and traumas of earlier events as well as foster practices of resistance and alternative visions of the future. Drawing from across disciplines and geographical contexts, (Un)timely Crises reimagines the relation of ‘crisis’ with ‘critique’,...

Barbarism and Its Discontents
ISBN: 9780804782760 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Barbarism and civilization form one of the oldest and most rigid oppositions in Western history. According to this dichotomy, barbarism functions as the negative standard through which -civilization- fosters its self-definition and superiority by labeling others -barbarians.- Since the 1990s, and especially since 9/11, these terms have become increasingly popular in Western political and cultural rhetoric-a rhetoric that divides the world into forces of good and evil. This study intervenes in this recent trend and interrogates contemporary and historical uses of barbarism, arguing that...

Inside Knowledge: (Un)doing Ways of Knowing in the Humanities
ISBN: 9781443805773 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 315 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Inside Knowledge: (Un)doing Ways of Knowing in the Humanities is a collection of original essays proposing a fresh examination of epistemological questions relevant to scholars in any discipline of the humanities. Is objective knowledge still a viable ideal? Can art produce or express knowledge of any kind? Is the body a promising medium for a knowledge less abstract or logocentric than the kind Western culture has favoured so far? How are epistemological regimes maintained with the use of established linguistic tropes? Is knowledge to be resisted or employed as a tool of resistance?...

Subjects Barbarian, Monstrous, and Wild: Encounters in the Arts and Contemporary Politics
ISBN: 9789004352001 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Subjects Barbarian, Monstrous, and Wild responds to a contemporary political climate in which historically invested figures of otherness—barbarians, savages, monsters—have become common discursive currency. Through questionable historical comparisons, politicians and journalists evoke barbaric or primitive forces threatening civilization in order to exacerbate the fear of others, diagnose civilizational decline, or feed nostalgic restorative projects. These evocations often demand that forms of oppression, discrimination, and violence be continued or renewed. In this context, the...

Barbarism Revisited: New Perspectives on an Old Concept
ISBN: 9789004307926 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The figure of the barbarian has captivated the Western imagination from Greek antiquity to the present. Since the 1990s, the rhetoric of civilization versus barbarism has taken center stage in Western political rhetoric and the media. But how can the longevity and popularity of this opposition be accounted for? Why has it become such a deeply ingrained habit of thought that is still being so effectively mobilized in Western discourses? The twenty essays in this volume revisit well-known and obscure chapters in barbarism's genealogy from new perspectives and through contemporary theoretical...
