Download or read book Kant in the Land of Extraterrestrials written by Peter Szendy and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2013-09-02 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Yes, Kant did indeed speak of extraterrestrials.” This phrase could provide the opening for this brief treatise of philosofiction (as one speaks of science fiction). What is revealed in the aliens of which Kant speaks—and he no doubt took them more seriously than anyone else in the history of philosophy—are the limits of globalization, or what Kant called cosmopolitanism. Before engaging Kantian considerations of the inhabitants of other worlds, before comprehending his reasoned alienology, this book works its way through an analysis of the star wars raging above our heads in the guise of international treaties regulating the law of space, including the cosmopirates that Carl Schmitt sometimes mentions in his late writings. Turning to track the comings and goings of extraterrestrials in Kant’s work, Szendy reveals that they are the necessary condition for an unattainable definition of humanity. Impossible to represent, escaping any possible experience, they are nonetheless inscribed both at the heart of the sensible and as an Archimedean point from whose perspective the interweavings of the sensible can be viewed. Reading Kant in dialogue with science fiction films (films he seems already to have seen) involves making him speak of questions now pressing in upon us: our endangered planet, ecology, a war of the worlds. But it also means attempting to think, with or beyond Kant, what a point of view might be.

Download or read book Ghostology written by Lucinda Curtle and published by Candlewick. This book was released on 2020-08-17 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just in time for Halloween! Find sundry novelties, flaps, facsimiles, and more in a haunting—or is it haunted?—volume that gives new meaning to the term ghost writer. Have you been hearing strange footsteps and knocks, whispers and rattling chains? Perhaps the early-twentieth-century author of this newly discovered tome has some secrets to share. Within the book’s weathered pages you’ll hear of a headless French pirate in search of his missing noggin, a vanishing pair of young trickster twins, a ghostly woman who screams for attention, and other communications from the “fun side.” Readers who wish to plumb the mysteries of the paranormal will find some hands-on challenges to lift their spirits, along with tips on a range of spectral subjects, such as what to pack in a ghostologist’s field kit, how to distinguish the types of ghosts, the best ways to hunt them, and spotting the unfortunate fakes and frauds. Too bad the late author never got to see her guide find its way into the world! But wait—what are those strange and scratchy asides that appear in odd places throughout the book?

Book excerpt: These are not traditional haikus! Haiku is a Japanese form of poetry. A haiku has three lines with five syllables in the first, seven syllables in the second, and five syllables in the third. Traditional haikus have a specific subject matter, but my haikus are not traditional. Here is an example of one of my haikus: Once the howling stops Is when you should really run They can taste your fear I have enjoyed writing haikus since grade school (which is many, many years ago) and recently began to twist them into micro flash fiction stories with rather dark subject matter. This is a collection of my favorite haiku horror stories with a handful of individual haikus mixed in for good measure. I hope you enjoy reading them.
