The Theater of Truth: The Ideology of (Neo)Baroque Aesthetics
ISBN: 9780804769549 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Theater of Truth argues that seventeenth-century baroque and twentieth-century neobaroque aesthetics have to be understood as part of the same complex. The Neobaroque, rather than being a return to the stylistic practices of a particular time and place, should be described as the continuation of a cultural strategy produced as a response to a specific problem of thought that has beset Europe and the colonial world since early modernity. This problem, in its simplest philosophical form, concerns the paradoxical relation between appearances and what they represent. Egginton explores...

Alejandro Jodorowsky: Filmmaker and Philosopher
ISBN: 9781350144774 / Angielski / Miękka / 2024 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Alejandro Jodorowsky is a force of nature. At 90 years old he is still making films and is a cultural phenomenon who has influenced other artists as disparate as John Waters and Yoko Ono. Although his body of work has long been considered disjointed and random, William Egginton claims that Jodorowsky’s writings, theatre work and mime, and his films, along with the therapeutic practice he calls psychomagic, can all be tied together to form the philosophical programme that underpins his films.
Incorporating surrealism and thinkers including Lacan, Kant, Hegel, and Žižek into his... Alejandro Jodorowsky is a force of nature. At 90 years old he is still making films and is a cultural phenomenon who has influenced other artists as d...

In Defense of Religious Moderation
ISBN: 9780231148795 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In his latest book, William Egginton laments the current debate over religion in America, in which religious fundamentalists have set the tone of political discourse--no one can get elected without advertising a personal relation to God, for example--and prominent atheists treat religious belief as the root of all evil. Neither of these positions, Egginton argues, adequately represents the attitudes of a majority of Americans who, while identifying as Christians, Jews, and Muslims, do not find fault with those who support different faiths and philosophies. In fact, Egginton goes so far as to...

Perversity and Ethics
ISBN: 9780804752596 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. William Egginton argues that the notion of the ethical cannot be understood outside of its relation to perversity--that is, the impulse to do what one knows and feels is wrong. The allure of the perverse, moreover, should not be understood as merely the necessary obverse of ethically motivated behavior; rather, from the perspective of a psychoanalytic understanding of the ethical, the two drives are structurally identical. This discovery leads the author to engagements with deconstructive thought and with contemporary gender theory. In the first, he shows that the insistent resurgence of the...

The Philosopheras Desire: Psychoanalysis, Interpretation, and Truth
ISBN: 9780804756006 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book is about interpretation as it pertains to literature, philosophy, and psychoanalysis. It argues against certain trends of thought that claim we should do without interpretation by demonstrating that interpretation, as described by psychoanalysis, is already a fundamental aspect of all human experience. Egginton examines the idea of interpretation developed by Freud; how that notion was in turn changed by Lacan; the debate around psychoanalytic interpretation staged by philosophers like Deleuze and Derrida; and finally how a psychoanalytic notion of interpretation is necessary for...

The Pragmatic Turn in Philosophy: Contemporary Engagements Between Analytic and Continental Thought
ISBN: 9780791460696 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Pragmatic Turn in Philosophy explores how the various discursive strategies of old and new pragmatisms are related, and what their pertinence is to the relationship between pragmatism and philosophy as a whole. The contributors bridge the divide between analytic and continental philosophy through a transcontinental desire to work on common problems in a common philosophical language. Irrespective of which side of the divide one stands on, pragmatic philosophy has gained ascendancy over the traditional concerns of a representationalist epistemology that has determined much of the...

Medialogies: Reading Reality in the Age of Inflationary Media
ISBN: 9781628923599 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. We are living in a time of inflationary media. While technological change has periodically altered and advanced the ways humans process and transmit knowledge, for the last 100 years the media with which we produce, transmit, and record ideas have multiplied in kind, speed, and power. Saturation in media is provoking a crisis in how we perceive and understand reality. Media become inflationary when the scope of their representation of the world outgrows the confines of their culture's prior grasp of reality. We call the resulting concept of reality that emerges the culture's... We are living in a time of inflationary media.
