Kierkegaard's Pseudonyms: Volume 17
ISBN: 9781472457639 / Angielski / Twarda / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. One of the elements that many readers admire in Kierkegaard's skill as a writer is his ability to create different voices and perspectives in his works. Instead of unilaterally presenting clear-cut doctrines and theses, he confronts the reader with a range of personalities and figures who all espouse different views. One important aspect of this play of perspectives is Kierkegaard's controversial use of pseudonyms. The present volume is dedicated to exploring the different pseudonyms and authorial voices in Kierkegaard's writing. The articles featured here try to explore each pseudonymous...

Egalitarian Moments: From Descartes to Rancière
ISBN: 9781472505446 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Jacques Ranciere's work has challenged many of the assumptions of contemporary continental philosophy by placing equality at the forefront of emancipatory political thought and aesthetics. Drawing on the claim that egalitarian politics persistently appropriates elements from political philosophy to engage new forms of dissensus, Devin Zane Shaw argues that Ranciere's work also provides an opportunity to reconsider modern philosophy and aesthetics in light of the question of equality. In Part I, Shaw examines Ranciere's philosophical debts to the 'good sense' of Cartesian egalitarianism and...

Desire in Ashes: Deconstruction, Psychoanalysis, Philosophy
ISBN: 9781472529138 / Angielski / Twarda / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The indebtedness of contemporary thinkers to Derrida's project of deconstruction is unquestionable, whether as a source of inspiration or the grounds of critical antagonism.
This collection considers: how best to recall deconstruction? Rather than reduce it to an object of historical importance or memory, these essays analyze its significance in terms of complex matrices of desire; provoked in this way, deconstruction cannot be dismissed as 'dead', nor unproblematically defended as alive and well. Repositioned on the threshold of life-death, deconstruction profoundly...

ISBN: 9780986370304 / Angielski / Miękka / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Urban Dystrophy is part memoir, part manifesto on the middle-aged mans struggle to discover authentic love in a world filled with impossible expectations: to preserve-if not in fact then at least in convincing appearance-ones youth, relevance, and money. By turns derisive and vulnerable, Rusovich delivers a thought-provoking homily on the impaired nourishment of the urban soul."
- Chris Cander, author of 11 Stories and Whisper Hollow In this searing and often hilarious testimony, Jay Rusovich blows the lid off of a very private and exclusive demographic where everyone is a commodity, and...

The Antiphilosophers
ISBN: 9781433131073 / Angielski / Twarda / 269 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this volume, author Steven L. Bindeman presents a survey of the key figures in postmodern antiphilosophy. Noting that the main thrust of their work can be found in their need to respond to the threat of nihilism, he is guided by the question, if the path to abstract truth is no longer viable, what then? He shows how the antiphilosophers turn their focus on the complexity of lived experience in place of the search for certainty, which was in their view what previously had guided the dominating discourse of the modernist philosophical tradition. Through close examination of a broad variety...

Natural Novelty: The Newness Manifest in Existence
ISBN: 9780761867081 / Angielski / Twarda / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Novelty is real. Cause-effect relationships come into existence that cannot be attributed to repetition of the relationships that came before them. This idea is relevant to everything from historical sciences, philosophy, religion, to our own subjective experience. But why, in the most general possible sense, do new things happen? It is argued here that novelty results from a kind of "symbiosis" between systems that function in similar ways, but are made from different stuff. Similarly, novelty within consciousness derives from an interactive overlap between logical thought that is...

Volume 18, Tome I: Kierkegaard Secondary Literature: Catalan, Chinese, Czech, Danish, and Dutch
ISBN: 9781472476227 / Angielski / Twarda / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In recent years interest in the thought of Kierkegaard has grown dramatically, and with it the body of secondary literature has expanded so quickly that it has become impossible for even the most conscientious scholar to keep pace. The problem of the explosion of secondary literature is made more acute by the fact that much of what is written about Kierkegaard appears in languages that most Kierkegaard scholars do not know. Kierkegaard has become a global phenomenon, and new research traditions have emerged in different languages, countries and regions. The present volume is dedicated to...

Die Affirmation Des Unvermeidlichen in Widerstand Und Wuerde: Ein Philosophisch-Literarischer Vergleich Existentieller Grundbegriffe Bei Giovanni Pico
ISBN: 9783631499481 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Der autonome Entwurf von Existenz ist kein willkurlicher Akt, sondern folgt einer intellektuellen selbstschopferischen Struktur, die samtlichen Epochen der Philosophiegeschichte immanent ist. Emotionale Selbsterfahrung ist unverzichtbare Bedingung jener Seins-Begrundung des Ich, die alle Existenzphilosophie charakterisiert. Zur Verifizierung dieser Thesen wird die Seins-bildende Grundlage - ausgehend von der Aristotelischen Definition des Geistes - in den Schriften des Giovanni Pico della Mirandola und des Albert Camus nachgewiesen. Erst im Zusammenwirken von Empfindung und Vernunft erlangt...
