Book Kierkegaard and Levinas

    Book Details:
  • Author : J. Aaron Simmons
  • Publisher : Indiana University Press
  • Release : 2008-10-29
  • ISBN : 0253003598
  • Pages : 288 pages

Download or read book Kierkegaard and Levinas written by J. Aaron Simmons and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-29 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent discussions in the philosophy of religion, ethics, and personal political philosophy have been deeply marked by the influence of two philosophers who are often thought to be in opposition to each other, SÃ ̧ren Kierkegaard and Emmanuel Levinas. Devoted expressly to the relationship between Levinas and Kierkegaard, this volume sets forth a more rigorous comparison and sustained engagement between them. Established and newer scholars representing varied philosophical traditions bring these two thinkers into dialogue in 12 sparkling essays. They consider similarities and differences in how each elaborated a unique philosophy of religion, and they present themes such as time, obligation, love, politics, God, transcendence, and subjectivity. This conversation between neighbors is certain to inspire further inquiry and ignite philosophical debate.

Book The Politics of Time

    Book Details:
  • Author : Peter Osborne
  • Publisher : Verso Books
  • Release : 2011-01-10
  • ISBN : 1844676730
  • Pages : 289 pages

Download or read book The Politics of Time written by Peter Osborne and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2011-01-10 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If Aristotle sought to understand time through change, might we not reverse the procedure and seek to understand change through time? Once we do this, argues Peter Osborne, it soon becomes clear that ideas such as avant-garde, modern, postmodern and tradition—which are usually only treated as markets for empirically discrete periods, movements or styles—are best understood as categories of historical totalization. More specifically, Osborne claims, such ideas involve distinct “temporalizations” of history, giving rise to conflicting politics of time. His book begins with a consideration of the main aspects of modernity and develops though a series of critical engagements with the major twentieth-century positions in the philosophy of history. He concludes with a fascinating history of the avant-garde intervention into the temporality of everyday life in surrealism, the situationists and the work of Henri Lefebvre.

Book Husserl and the Promise of Time

Download or read book Husserl and the Promise of Time written by Nicolas de Warren and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-11-05 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an extensive treatment of Husserl's phenomenology of time-consciousness. Nicolas de Warren uses detailed analysis of texts by Husserl, some only recently published in German, to examine Husserl's treatment of time-consciousness and its significance for his conception of subjectivity. He traces the development of Husserl's thinking on the problem of time from Franz Brentano's descriptive psychology, and situates it in the framework of his transcendental project as a whole. Particular discussions include the significance of time-consciousness for other phenomenological themes: perceptual experience, the imagination, remembrance, self-consciousness, embodiment, and the consciousness of others. The result is an illuminating exploration of how and why Husserl considered the question of time-consciousness to be the most difficult, yet also the most central, of all the challenges facing his unique philosophical enterprise.

Book Last Steps

    Book Details:
  • Author : Christopher Fynsk
  • Publisher : Fordham Univ Press
  • Release : 2013-06-13
  • ISBN : 0823251020
  • Pages : 313 pages

Download or read book Last Steps written by Christopher Fynsk and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing, Maurice Blanchot taught us, is not something that is in one's power. It is, rather, a search for a non-power that refuses mastery, order, and all established authority. For Blanchot, this search was guided by an enigmatic exigency, an arresting rupture, and a promise of justice that required endless contestation of every usurping authority, an endless going out toward the other. "The step/not beyond" ("le pas au-dela") names this exilic passage as it took form in his influential later work, but not as a theme or concept, since its "step" requires a transgression of discursive limits and any grasp afforded by the labor of the negative. Thus, to follow "the step/not beyond" is to follow a kind of event in writing, to enter a movement that is never quite captured in any defining or narrating account. Last Steps attempts a practice of reading that honors the exilic exigency even as it risks drawing Blanchot's reflective writings and fragmentary narratives into the articulation of a reading. It brings to the fore Blanchot's exceptional contributions to contemporary thought on the ethico-political relation, language, and the experience of human finitude. It offers the most sustained interpretation of The Step Not Beyond available, with attentive readings of a number of major texts, as well as chapters on Levinas and Blanchot's relation to Judaism. Its trajectory of reading limns the meaning of a question from The Infinite Conversation that implies an opening and a singular affirmation rather than a closure: "How had he come to will the interruption of the discourse?"

Book The Notion of the A Priori

Download or read book The Notion of the A Priori written by Mikel Dufrenne and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2009-02-26 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1966, this pivotal work of Mikel Dufrenne revises Kant’s notion of a priori, a concept previously given insufficient attention by philosophers, to realize a rich understanding that finally does justice to one of Kant’s most troubling cruxes. Following the Husserlian analytics of phenomenology, Dufrenne postulates a dualistic conception of the a priori as a structure that expresses itself outside the human subject, but also as a virtual knowledge that points to a philosophy of immediate apprehension or feeling. A friend of Paul Ricoeur, with whom he was detained as a prisoner of war during World War II, Dufrenne’s work until now has been sorely overlooked by American philosophers.

Book Evidence and Meaning

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jörn Rüsen
  • Publisher : Berghahn Books
  • Release : 2017-05-01
  • ISBN : 1785335391
  • Pages : 266 pages

Download or read book Evidence and Meaning written by Jörn Rüsen and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2017-05-01 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As one of the premier historical thinkers of his generation, Jörn Rüsen has made enormous contributions to the methods and theoretical framework of history as it is practiced today. In Evidence and Meaning, Rüsen surveys the seismic changes that have shaped the historical profession over the last half-century, while offering a clear, economical account of his theory of history. To traditional historiography Rüsen brings theoretical insights from philosophy, narrative theory, cultural studies, and the social sciences, developing an intricate but robust model of “historical thinking” as both a cognitive discipline and a cultural practice—one that is susceptible neither to naïve empiricism nor radical relativism.

Book On Time   New Contributions to the Husserlian Phenomenology of Time

Download or read book On Time New Contributions to the Husserlian Phenomenology of Time written by Dieter Lohmar and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-06-21 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Usually Husserl’s analysis of time-constitution is thought of in terms of three phases that are roughly bound up with the central publications, the Lectures, the Bernau Manuscripts and the C-Manuscripts. Today, after the publication of the central texts incorporating the last two phases, the discussion of Husserl’s analysis of time-constitution has entered a new phase. This is true for the interpretation of the latter two texts but it also affects out reading of the Lectures. Today, in the aftermath of the recent publication of the C-Manuscipts, it seems more likely that the seemingly separated first two phases are more close to each other than expected. The new and broader context allows for more thorough interpretation of the whole enterprise of time-constitution. By publishing this collection of contributions of the best international experts in this field, entailing some refreshing approaches of new coming researchers, this collection gives an overview of the most contemporary interpretations of this fundamental phenomenological theme.
