Gefühle ALS Atmosphären: Neue Phänomenologie Und Philosophische Emotionstheorie
ISBN: 9783050049304 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 267 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Den Mittelpunkt dieses Buchs bildet die mit der These von den Gefuhlen als Atmospharen verbundene radikale Infragestellung der vorherrschenden Auffassung von Gefuhlen als privaten, inneren Zustanden des Einzelnen. Mit der Uberwindung des in der abendlandischen Tradition verankerten Innenweltparadigmas werden die reduktionistischen Verkurzungen des subjektiven Erlebens aufgelost und die Mannigfaltigkeit und Qualitat der Phanomene unverkurzt philosophiefahig gemacht. Der Kern dieses Programms ist die Rehabilitierung des eigenleiblichen Spurens und der affektiven Betroffenheit als Grund und...

Die kulturelle Existenz des Menschen
ISBN: 9783050031071 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Die Frage nach dem Menschen ist in der philosophischen Tradition als Frage nach dem menschlichen Geist formuliert worden. Oswald Schwemmer nimmt diese Frage auf und ruckt sie in eine kulturphilosophische Perspektive. Der Geist verbleit dann nicht mehr in einem idealen Reich reiner Gedanken, sondern wird zu einer historisch-kulturellen Realitat, die sich in den vielfaltogen Gestaltungen symbolischer Reprasentationen "materialisiert."

Irony's Edge : The Theory and Politics of Irony
ISBN: 9780415054539 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The edge of irony, says Linda Hutcheon, is always a social and political edge. Irony depends upon interpretation; it happens in the tricky, unpredictable space between expression and understanding. Irony's Edge is a fascinating, compulsively readable study of the myriad forms and the effects of irony. It sets out, for the first time, a sustained, clear analysis of the theory and the political contexts of irony, using a wide range of references from contemporary culture. Examples extend from Madonna to Wagner, from a clever quip in conversation to a contentious exhibition in a...

First published in 1970, this is an analytic discussion of the various ways in which perfectibility has been interpreted. Professor Passmore traces its long history from the Greeks to the 20th century, by way of Christianity, orthodox and heterodox, the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, anarchism, utopias, communism, psychoanalysis, and evolutionary theories of man and society.

An Introduction to the Philosophy of Mind: Souls, Science and Human Beings
ISBN: 9780333786376 / Angielski / Twarda / 157 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book is an introduction to the philosophy of mind. While a number of such introductions are available, this book differs from others in that, while rejecting the dualist approach associated in particular with Descartes, it also casts serious doubt on the forms of materialism that now dominate English language philosophy. Drawing in particular on the work of Wittgenstein, a central place is given to the importance of the notion of a human being in our thought about ourselves and others.

T.H. Green's Moral and Political Philosophy: A Phenomenological Perspective
ISBN: 9780333914458 / Angielski / Twarda / 175 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book offers a new phenomenological, interpretation of T.H. Green's (1836-1882) philosophy and political theory. By analysing in turn his theory of human practice, the moral idea, the common good, freedom and human rights, the book demonstrates that Green falls into the same tradition as Kantian and Husserlian transcendentalism. The book offers a reconstruction of Green's idealism and demonstrates its potential to address contemporary debates on the nature of moral agency, positive and negative freedom and on justifying human rights.

The Slumber of Apollo: Reflections on Recent Art, Literature, Language and the Individual Consciousness
ISBN: 9780521248044 / Angielski / Twarda / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this challenging 1993 book John Holloway explores one of the most significant aspects of contemporary culture, arguing that over the last hundred years or so there has been a radical change in the very nature of individual consciousness. He traces a crucial shift from an 'Apollonian' ideal of human involvement in the widest range of experience (implying a sense of the individual consciousness as spacious, orderly, and comprehensive) to a narrower and less integrated engagement with the world (and a more reductive conception of consciousness as random and fragmented). He plots this shift...

Ambiguity and Logic
ISBN: 9780521824583 / Angielski / Twarda / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this book, Frederic Schick extends and applies the decision theory he proposed in two previous Cambridge books: Understanding Action (1991) and Making Choices (1997). He shows how the way we see situations affects the choices we make, and he develops a logic of thought responsive to how things are seen. The book considers many questions of choosing and some familiar human predicaments. Why do people in choice experiments act so often against expectations? How might they and the experimenters be looking at different problems in them? Why do people cooperate so often where the textbook logic...

Valuing Emotions
ISBN: 9780521561105 / Angielski / Twarda / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is the result of a uniquely productive union of philosophy, psychoanalysis, and anthropology, and explores the complexity and importance of emotions. Michael Stocker places emotions at the very center of human identity, life and value. He shows how important are the social and emotional contexts of ethical dilemmas and inner conflicts, and he challenges philosophical theories that try to overgeneralize and over simplify by leaving out the particulars of each situation. This book will interest a broad range of readers across the disciplines of philosophy and psychology.

This is the first book to trace systematically the philosophical origins and development of the idea that the improvement of human understanding requires public activity, through discussion of the work of Descartes, Hobbes, Locke, Spinoza, and Leibniz.

Mind, Reason and Imagination: Selected Essays in Philosophy of Mind and Language
ISBN: 9780521816977 / Angielski / Twarda / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Jane Heal argues that central to our ability to arrive at views about others' thoughts is not knowledge of some theory of the mind but rather an ability to imagine alternative worlds and how things appear from another person's point of view. She then applies this view to questions of how we represent others' thoughts, the shape of psychological concepts, the nature of rationality and the possibility of first person authority. This book is of interest to students and professionals in philosophy of mind and language.

Explaining Attitudes: A Practical Approach to the Mind
ISBN: 9780521420532 / Angielski / Twarda / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Explaining Attitudes offers a timely and important challenge to the dominant conception of belief found in the work of such philosophers as Dretske and Fodor. According to this dominant view, beliefs, if they exist at all, are constituted by states of the brain. Rudder Baker rejects this view and replaces it with a quite different approach: practical realism. Seen from the perspective of practical realism, any argument that tries to interpret beliefs as either brain states or immaterial souls is a false dichotomy. Practical realism takes beliefs to be states of whole persons, rather like...

What Minds Can Do
ISBN: 9780521574013 / Angielski / Twarda / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Some of a person's mental states have the power to represent real and imagined states of affairs: they have semantic properties. What Minds Can Do has two goals: to find a naturalistic or nonsemantic basis for the representational powers of a person's mind, and to show that these semantic properties are involved in the causal explanation of the person's behavior. In the process, the book addresses issues that are central to much contemporary philosophical debate. It will be of interest to a wide range of readers in philosophy of mind and of language, cognitive science, and psychology.
