Itinerant Philosophy: On Alphonso Lingis
ISBN: 9780692253397 / Angielski / Miękka / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Alphonso Lingis is the author of fourteen books and many essays. He is emeritus professor of philosophy at Pennsylvania State University. While many know him only as an eccentric ex-professor or as translator of Emmanuel Levinas, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and Pierre Klossowski, he is arguably the most distinctive voice in American continental philosophy. This is no doubt due to the perpetual travel that fuels his arresting written prose and unorthodox public readings. Lingis's lifelong itinerary includes visits - some brief, others extended or recurring - to 109 countries. Along the way he has...

Truth Never Changes: Conceiving a Spiritual Democracy
ISBN: 9781500878429 / Angielski / Miękka / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A desire to know is required for embarking upon a quest for knowledge.
Disciplines of science and religion were created to fulfill that need. The purpose of religion is to teach one to see well enough in the dark to find one's way when one does not possess the means to illuminate it. The purpose of science is to conceive the idea, investigate it, and test the knowledge attained. While both science and religion are tools for humanity to explore the darkness, they are little more than ways to lead one out of it. The questions remain: where is one going and why is one going...

How to Do Things with Pornography
ISBN: 9780674055209 / Angielski / Twarda / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Feminist philosophers have made important strides in altering the overwhelmingly male-centric discipline of philosophy. Yet, in Nancy Bauer's view, most are still content to work within theoretical frameworks that are fundamentally false to human beings' everyday experiences. This is particularly intolerable for a species of philosophy whose central aspiration is to make the world a less sexist place. How to Do Things with Pornography models a new way to write philosophically about pornography, women's self-objectification, hook-up culture, and other contemporary phenomena. Unafraid...
