Plato and the Invention of Life
ISBN: 9780823279685 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Beginning with a reading of Plato's Statesman, this work interrogates the relationship between life and being in Plato's thought. It argues that in his later dialogues Plato discovers-orinvents-a form of true or real life that transcends all merely biological life and everything that is commonly called life.

The End of the World and Other Teachable Moments: Jacques Derrida's Final Seminar
ISBN: 9780823263295 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The End of the World and Other Teachable Moments follows the remarkable itinerary of Jacques Derrida's final seminar, "The Beast and the Sovereign" (2001-3), as the explicit themes of the seminar namely, sovereignty and the question of the animal come to be supplemented and interrupted by questions of death, mourning, survival, the archive, and, especially, the end of the world. The book begins with Derrida's analyses, in the first year of the seminar, of the question of the animal in the context of his other published works on the same subject. It then follows Derrida through the second...

Taking on the Tradition: Jacques Derrida and the Legacies of Deconstruction
ISBN: 9780804744218 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Taking on the Tradition focuses on how the work of Jacques Derrida has helped us rethink and rework the themes of tradition, legacy, and inheritance in the Western philosophical tradition. It concentrates not only on such themes in the work of Derrida but also on his own gestures with regard to these themes--that is, on the performativity of Derrida's texts. The book thus uses Derrida's understanding of speech act theory to reread his own work. The book consists in a series of close readings of Derrida's texts to demonstrate that the claims he makes in his work cannot be fully...

Miracle and Machine: Jacques Derrida and the Two Sources of Religion, Science, and the Media
ISBN: 9780823239986 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 428 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Miracle and Machine is a sort of "reader's guide" to Jacques Derrida's 1994 essay "faith and knowledge," his most important work on the nature of religion in general and on the unprecedented forms it is taking today through science and the media. It provides essential background for understanding Derrida's essay, commentary on its unique style and its central figures (e.g., Kant, Hegel, Bergson, and Heidegger), and assessment of its principal philosophical claims about the fundamental duplicity of religion and the ineluctably autoimmune relationship among religion, science, and the...

Plato and the Invention of Life
ISBN: 9780823279678 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Though the question of life (whether bios or zōē) is not the explicit focus of any Platonic dialogue, it is, this book argues, an absolutely central and structuring question for all of Plato's thought, and perhaps especially for his ontology. This is nowhere more evident than in the Statesman, where the central myth of the two ages sketches out not only two models of time and governance but two very different kinds and valences of life and being. Life Forms: Plato's Statesman and the Invention of True Itself begins by offering a reading of Plato's...

Derrida from Now on
ISBN: 9780823229598 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Written in the wake of Jacques Derrida's death in 2004, Derrida From Now On attempts both to do justice to the memory of Derrida and to demonstrate the continuing significance of his work for contemporary philosophy and literary theory. If Derrida's thought is to remain relevant for us today, it must be at once understood in its original context and uprooted and transplanted elsewhere. Michael Naas thus begins with an analysis of Derrida's attachment to the French language, to Europe, and to European secular thought, before turning to Derrida's long engagement with the American context and to...

Plato's Animals: Gadflies, Horses, Swans, and Other Philosophical Beasts
ISBN: 9780253016171 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Plato's Animals examines the crucial role played by animal images, metaphors, allusions, and analogies in Plato's Dialogues. These fourteen lively essays demonstrate that the gadflies, snakes, stingrays, swans, dogs, horses, and other animals that populate Plato's work are not just rhetorical embellishments. Animals are central to Plato's understanding of the hierarchy between animals, humans, and gods and are crucial to his ideas about education, sexuality, politics, aesthetics, the afterlife, the nature of the soul, and philosophy itself. The volume includes a comprehensive annotated... Plato's Animals examines the crucial role played by animal images, metaphors, allusions, and analogies in Plato's Dialogues.

Apocalyptic Ruin and Everyday Wonder in Don DeLillo’s America
ISBN: 9781501390692 / Angielski / Twarda / 2022 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Apocalyptic Ruin and Everyday Wonder in Don DeLillo’s America is a fresh and engaging study of “last things” in Don DeLillo’s works—things like death, mourning, and the decline of the American empire, but then also the apocalypse, the last judgment, and the end of the world more generally. Michael Naas untangles complex themes in short, witty chapters that highlight and celebrate DeLillo’s inventive and playful writing, employing a novel approach to literary criticism. Making no use of secondary sources, the book is entirely a discussion of DeLillo's work, accessible to any level...

Rogues: Two Essays on Reason
ISBN: 9780804749503 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Rogues, published in France under the title Voyous, comprises two major lectures that Derrida delivered in 2002 investigating the foundations of the sovereignty of the nation-state. The term "Etat voyou" is the French equivalent of "rogue state," and it is this outlaw designation of certain countries by the leading global powers that Derrida rigorously and exhaustively examines. Derrida examines the history of the concept of sovereignty, engaging with the work of Bodin, Hobbes, Rousseau, Schmitt, and others. Against this background, he delineates his understanding of...

Adieu to Emmanuel Levinas
ISBN: 9780804732758 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This volume contains the speech given by Derrida at Emmanuel Levinas's funeral on December 27, 1995, and his contribution to a colloquium organized to mark the first anniversary of Levinas's death. For both thinkers, the word adieu names a fundamental characteristic of human being: the salutation or benediction prior to all constative language (in certain circumstances, one can say adieu at the moment of meeting) and that given at the moment of separation, sometimes forever, as at the moment of death, it is also the a-dieu, for God or to God before and in any relation to...
