Philosophy and Kafka
ISBN: 9781498511261 / Angielski / Miękka / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The relationship of philosophy with Kafka's oeuvre is complex. It has been argued that Kafka's novels and stories defy philosophic extrapolation; conversely, it has also been suggested that precisely the tendency of Kafka's writings to elude discursive solution is itself a philosophical tendency, one that is somehow contributing to a wiser relationship of human beings with language. These matters are the focus of the proposed volume on Philosophy and Kafka. The proposed collection brings together essays that interrogate the relationship of philosophy and Kafka, and offer new and original...

Kierkegaard and the Refusal of Transcendence
ISBN: 9781137386755 / Angielski / Twarda / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Kierkegaard and the Refusal of Transcendence challenges the standard view that Kierkegaard's God is infinitely other than the world. It argues that his work immerses us in the paradoxical nature of existence itself, and opposes any flight into another world. Shakespeare shows that Kierkegaard's texts cannot be contained within an orthodox Christian framework. In a daring series of readings, we find the paradox figured in ways which refuse the judgment of heaven, struggle against the established order and stand with the suffering victim. Engaging with thinkers from Butler to Deleuze to...

Lacanian Antiphilosophy and the Problem of Anxiety: An Uncanny Little Object
ISBN: 9781137513526 / Angielski / Twarda / 249 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The emotional life of any human being can be a confusing thing. For most of us, an everyday, common sense understanding of emotional life routinely compares and contrasts the experiences of anxiety and fear, as if the two emotions are cut from the same cloth. Similarly, nineteenth and twentieth century philosophers often conflated the emotions, conceiving of anxiety as a kind of objectless fear, or a lurking dread. In this book, Brian Robertson challenges those familiar lines of thinking through a close and innovative reading of Jacques Lacan's recently translated Anxiety Seminar. What would...
