Book Idealism and Existentialism

Download or read book Idealism and Existentialism written by Jon Stewart and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-06-02 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of Continental philosophy is often conceived as being represented by two major schools: German idealism and phenomenology/existentialism. These two schools are frequently juxtaposed so as to highlight their purported radical differences. There is a commonly held view that an abrupt break occurred in the nineteenth century, resulting in a disdainful rejection of idealism in all its forms. This break is often located in the transition from Hegel to Kierkegaard. The history of philosophy in the first half of the nineteenth century has thus been read as a grand confrontation between the overambitious rationalistic system of Hegel and the devastating criticisms of it by Kierkegaard's philosophy of existence. This work aims to undermine this popular view of the radical break between idealism and existentialism by means of a series of detailed studies in specific episodes of European thought. As a whole, this book represents an important attempt to demonstrate the long shadow cast by Kant and Hegel over the subsequent history of European philosophy.

Book Inwardness and Existence

Download or read book Inwardness and Existence written by Walter Albert Davis and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A profound, challenging, wide-ranging book, back in print for a new generation "Inwardness and Existence accomplishes what no book before or after has even approximated: it demonstrates with great lucidity and insight the shared philosophical project that animates psychoanalysis, Marxism, existentialism, and Hegelian dialectics. Davis roots the reader in the enterprise of questioning what is given and probing beyond what is safe in order to demonstrate that psychoanalytic inquiry, Marxist politics, existential reflection, and dialectical connection all move within the same orbit. No one who reads it will ever think about existence itself in the same way again. Davis's landmark work will profoundly transform anyone who reads it."--Todd McGowan, author of The Real Gaze: Film Theory after Lacan

Book Genesis and Structure of Hegel s  Phenomenology of Spirit

Download or read book Genesis and Structure of Hegel s Phenomenology of Spirit written by Jean Hyppolite and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 1974 with total page 651 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean Hyppolite produced the first French translation of Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit. His major works—the translation, his commentary, and Logique et existence (1953)—coincided with an upsurge of interest in Hegel following World War II. Yet Hyppolite's influence was as much due to his role as a teacher as it was to his translation or commentary: Foucault and Deleuze were introduced to Hegel in Hyppolite's classes, and Derrida studied under him. More than fifty years after its original publication, Hyppolite's analysis of Hegel continues to offer fresh insights to the reader.

  • Author : John McCumber
  • Publisher : Northwestern University Press
  • Release : 1993-03-04
  • ISBN : 0810110822
  • Pages : 464 pages

Download or read book The Company of Words written by John McCumber and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 1993-03-04 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this provocative work, John McCumber asks us to understand Hegel's system as a new approach to linguistic communication. Hegel, he argues, is concerned with building community and mutual comprehension rather than with completing metaphysics or developing historical critique. According to McCumber's radial interpretation, Hegel constructs a complex ideal of how we should use certain words. This ideal philosophical vocabulary is flexible and open to revision, and is constructed according to principles available at all time and all places; it is responsive to, but not dictated by, the shared language of cultured discourse whose concepts it attempts to refine and universalize.

Book Dictionary of Existentialism

Download or read book Dictionary of Existentialism written by Haim Gordon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Existentialism, as a philosophy, gained prominence after World War II. Instead of focusing upon a particular aspect of human existence, existentialists argued that our focus must be upon the whole being as he/she exists in the world. Rebelling against the rationalism of such philosophers as Descartes and Hegel, existentialists reject the emphasis placed on man as primarily a thinking being. Freedom is central to human existence, and human relations and encounters cannot be reduced simply to "thinking." This Dictionary provides--through alphabetically arranged entries--overviews of the various tenets, philosophers, and writers of existentialism, and of those writers/philosophers who, in retrospect, seem to existentialists to espouse their philosophy: Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, Dostoyevski, et al.

Book Hegel

    Book Details:
  • Author : Martin Heidegger
  • Publisher : Indiana University Press
  • Release : 2015-08-31
  • ISBN : 0253017785
  • Pages : 168 pages

Download or read book Hegel written by Martin Heidegger and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2015-08-31 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “excellent translation” of Heidegger’s writings on Hegel shows an essential engagement between two of the foundational thinkers of phenomenology (Phenomenological Reviews). While Martin Heidegger’s writings on Hegel are notoriously difficult, this volume provides a clear and careful translation of two important texts—a treatise on negativity, and a penetrating reading of Hegel’s Phenomenology of Spirit. In these stimulating works, Heidegger relates his interpretation of Hegel to his own thought on the event, taking up themes developed in Contributions to Philosophy. While many parts of the text are fragmentary in nature, these interpretations are considered some of the most significant as they bring Hegel into Heidegger’s philosophical trajectory.

Book From Shakespeare to Existentialism

Download or read book From Shakespeare to Existentialism written by Walter A. Kaufmann and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A classic book by one of the twentieth century’s most innovative and adventurous thinkers First published in 1959, From Shakespeare to Existentialism offers Walter Kaufmann’s critical interpretations of some of the greatest minds in Western philosophy, religion, and literature. Few scholars can match Kaufmann’s range of interests, from intellectual history and comparative religion to psychology, art, and architecture. In this illuminating and wide-ranging book, he traces the evolving Aristotelian ideal of the great-souled individual, showing how it was forgotten by medieval Christendom but recovered by Shakespeare and apotheosized by Nietzsche. An invaluable companion to his Critique of Religion and Philosophy, this volume presents Kaufmann at his most trailblazing, charting new directions in Western thought while providing bold perspectives on figures such as Goethe, Hegel, Rilke, and Freud.
