Postcolonial Theory and the Specter of Capital
ISBN: 9781844679768 / Angielski / Miękka / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Postcolonial theory has become enormously influential as a framework for understanding the Global South. It is also a school of thought popular because of its rejection of the supposedly universalizing categories of the Enlightenment. In this devastating critique, mounted on behalf of the radical Enlightenment tradition, Vivek Chibber offers the most comprehensive response yet to postcolonial theory. Focusing on the hugely popular Subaltern Studies project, Chibber shows that its foundational arguments are based on a series of analytical and historical misapprehensions. He demonstrates that...

Naturwissenschaftliche Beobachtungen hangen auf vielfaltige Weise von wissenschaftlichen Theorien ab. Diese These der Theoriebeladenheit galt lange... |

ISBN: 9780231179423 / Angielski / Twarda / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The fall of the Berlin Wall marked the end of the Cold War but also the rise of a melancholic vision of history as a series of losses. For the political left, the cause lost was communism, and this trauma determined how leftists wrote the next chapter in their political struggle and how they have thought about their past since. Throughout the twentieth century, argues Left-Wing Melancholia, from classical Marxism to psychoanalysis to the advent of critical theory, a culture of defeat and its emotional overlay of melancholy have characterized the leftist understanding of the political...

The Great War and the Death of God: Cultural Breakdown, Retreat from Reason, and Rise of Neo-Darwinian Materialism in the Aftermath of World War I
ISBN: 9780989916998 / Angielski / Miękka / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book attributes the success of the atheistic cosmology in displacing the deeply rooted belief in nature's divine governance to the First World War and its effect on Western theology, philosophy, literature, and art.

Instead of redressing humanity's cosmic alienation, postwar Western culture abandoned its concern for cosmic meaning, lost its confidence in human reason, and enabled the scientific worldview of neo-Darwinian materialism to emerge and eventually...

The Modist: A Philosophical Manifesto
ISBN: 9781500218218 / Angielski / Miękka / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "First unlearning is eternal law....There is a secret in every birth, every boundary, each bifurcation, any diminution." In this text Nathan Coppedge addresses the subject of philosophy in the guise of a manifesto. The aim is to apply philosophy to all areas of life: dogma, experiences, methodology, and criticism are some of his subjects. A platform is provided for viewing categorical realism as a system of meaning which threads its way through all aspects of life. This is a philosophy of meaning, a form of applicationism, a borderline between truth and reality without compromising either....

Zoogenesis: Thinking Encounter with Animals
ISBN: 9780957147041 / Angielski / Miękka / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Zoogenesis: Thinking Encounter with Animals offers radical new possibilities for encountering and thinking with other animals, and thus for the politics of animal liberation. Examining the machinations of power that legitimize the killing of nonhuman animals, Zoogenesis shows too how thoroughly entangled they are with the 'noncriminal' putting to death of human animals. Such legitimation consists in a theatrics of displacement that transforms singular, nonsubstitutable living beings into mute, subjugated bodies that may be slaughtered but never murdered. Nothing less than the economy of...

Transcendence by Perspective: Meditations on and with Kenneth Burke
ISBN: 9781602355286 / Angielski / Miękka / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. TRANSCENDENCE BY PERSPECTIVE: MEDITATIONS ON AND WITH KENNETH BURKE represents a fresh attempt to think with Kenneth Burke regarding the relationship between human symbolicity and social change. The essays, by both prominent and up-and-coming young scholars, are organized around the three conceptions of transcendence that, the editor argues, can be found in Burke's body of work: transcendence as a curative method; transcendence as a dialectical process; and transcendence as our human condition. The first, from Burke's earliest works, reflects an attempt to resolve conflicts between opposing...

Although the fertile dialogue between Ricoeur and various structuralist thinkers is well documented, his position in relation to the post-structuralist movement is less-widely understood.
