Between Myth and Nihilism - Community in Jean-Luc Nancy's Philosophy
ISBN: 9783639060829 / Angielski / Miękka / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Jean-Luc Nancy is known to be one of the principal contributors to postmodern theory of community. This book examines Nancy's concept of community as it is presented in his two books "The Sense of the World" and "The Inoperative Community." To obviate both myth and nihilism, Nancy suggests a concept of community based on the ontology of event. At the same time, he proceeds from the experience of addressing and exposing, which in fact exceeds this ontology. Moreover, it implies different ethical attitude - addressing/ exposing and establishing ties with others instead of maintaining flowing...

A Phenomenology of Mystical Experiences
ISBN: 9783639063561 / Angielski / Miękka / 92 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Even today, mystical experiences continue to baffle those who attempt to accurately communicate them through the use of language. This is mainly due the fact that such experiences tend to exhibit phenomenal qualities that are highly distanced from normal everyday occurrences.
This book constitutes a four-part preliminary attempt at surmounting this problem, and at rendering mystical experiences effable. The first part lays down the variety of mystical experiences that one can come to encounter, as these have been reported across a wide variety of peoples, religions, and cultures. The second...

Inferentialism and Practical Reason
ISBN: 9783639072044 / Angielski / Miękka / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This essay elaborates and defends a certain broad orientation in the philosophy of mind-the inferentialism of Sellars and Brandom-and explores the striking consequences of that orientation for the field of practical reason. Inferentialism aims to understand the significance of various philosophically important concepts in terms of their role in inference. The first part of the essay draws a distinction between two types of practical reasoning. It is argued that once we take a contextualist, non-foundationalist approach to practical reasoning, we realize that neither form of reasoning is more...

Classical Confucianism and Moral Sentimentalism
ISBN: 9783639068979 / Angielski / Miękka / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Contemporary virtue ethics had developed mainly in the Aristotelian tradition. Recently, however, a few non-Aristotelian forms of virtue ethics have emerged. Among them, the most radical departure from the ancient Greek tradition is found in Michael Slote`s agent-based virtue ethics inspired by the eighteenth century British moral sentimentalism and the contemporary feminist ethics of care. In light of this new trend, the virtue ethicist Rosalind Hursthouse has anticipated that although the growing interest in ancient Chinese ethics currently tends to emphasize its common ground with the...

Time Change and Imaginary Numbers
ISBN: 9783836499545 / Angielski / Miękka / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is concerned mostly with time, change and imaginary numbers. The starting point is an argument for the theory of dynamic time. Its central roadblock - McTaggarts proof of the unreality of time - is disarmed by the claim that McTaggart introduces far-reaching an additional temporal perspective which can even explain the relativistic time-like dimension. The narration comes closer to logic as it becomes clear that the progress cannot be made unless a contradiction is used. The challenge then is to prevent slipping into dialethism. Finally, mathematics becomes the center of attention...

Knowledge's Value
ISBN: 9783639071610 / Angielski / Miękka / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Is knowledge better than true belief? Socrates thought so. If he was right, and it is better to know than to believe, then how is that the case? Knowledge is generally considered to be some sort of justified true belief; so, is it justification that makes knowledge somehow better? These questions motivate this book (specifically whether justification can possibly account for a value unique to knowledge).
The book begins by presenting the justificatory landscape-in particular, the features of and division between externalist justification and internalist justification. The first major...

The Art of Observing, Accepting and Letting Go
ISBN: 9783639071702 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Meditation is an ancient practice used to transform consciousness by altering attention, and it has gained ground in the western world during the last century. This book explores and describes meditation and its subjective consequences from the viewpoint of six long-term meditators. These consequences are hypothesized to be the outcome of the dissolution of the constructed and conditioned self. From observing, accepting and letting go of earlier conditioning a new awareness arises in the meditator who now conceives the world and existence from an expanded point of view, devoid of the notion...

The 18th and the 19th century saw both the rise of the sciences on crime and the rise of gothic literature. In this book Per Jorgen Ystehede examines the relationship between the work of Cesare Lombroso (1835-1909) and the rise of the gothic imagination. Furthermore, addresses the question of how to understand the relationship between the gothic tradition and contemporary critical criminological perspectives, as mediated through the discussion of Lombroso's thought and its influence on the discipline of criminology. Through a reading of Cesare Lombroso's The Anarchists (Gli Anarchici),...

Friedrich Nietzsche
ISBN: 9780754625896 / Angielski / Twarda / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. From his first readers to the present, Friedrich Nietzsche has found supporters and detractors on every point of the political spectrum.
