Download or read book Linguistics Anthropology and Philosophy in the French Enlightenment written by Ulrich Ricken and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-09-11 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linguistics, Anthropology and Philosophy in the French Enlightenment treats the development of linguistic thought from Descartes to Degerando as both a part of and a determining factor in the emergence of modern consciousness. Through his careful analyses of works by the most influential thinkers of the time, Ulrich Ricken demonstrates that the central significance of language in the philosophy of the enlightenment, reflected and acted upon contemporary understandings of humanity as a whole. The author discusses contemporary developments in England, Germany and Italy and covers an unusually broad range of writers and ideas including Leibniz, Wolff, Herder and Humboldt. This study places history of language philosophy within the broader context of the history of ideas, aesthetics and historical anthropology and will be of interest to scholars working in these disciplines.

Download or read book Doing Humanities in Nineteenth Century Germany written by Efraim Podoksik and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-12-09 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doing Humanities in Nineteenth-Century Germany, edited by Efraim Podoksik, is a collaborative project by leading scholars in German studies that examines the practices of theorising and researching in the humanities as pursued by German thinkers and scholars during the long nineteenth century, and the relevance of those practices for the humanities today. Each chapter focuses on a particular branch of the humanities, such as philosophy, history, classical philology, theology, or history of art. The volume both offers a broad overview of the history of German humanities and examines an array of particular cases that illustrate their inner dilemmas, ranging from Ranke’s engagement with the world of poetry to Max Weber’s appropriation of the notion of causality.

Download or read book L anthropologie philosophique de Wilhelm von Humboldt written by Jean Quillien and published by Presses Universitaires du Septentrion. This book was released on 2020-11-19 with total page 571 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wilhelm von Humboldt (1767-1835) est une personnalité souvent citée, un auteur peu connu, un penseur méconnu. Son œuvre ne trouve guère place que dans les histoires de la linguistique, comme une étape dans la série des réflexions métaphysiques sur le langage ou un moment de la préhistoire d’une science, la linguistique. En vérité, sa théorie du langage ne peut se comprendre, en sa signification profonde et en sa visée essentielle, à partir des seuls écrits strictement linguistiques plus tardifs (après 1820), mais requiert la mise à jour, objet de la présente étude, de la fondation philosophique sur laquelle elle repose tout entière. Celle-ci a été construite dans la décennie 1790-1800 sur fond d’une méditation approfondie et renouvelée du kantisme puis, sur cette base théorique, à travers l’exploration méthodique, constamment appuyée sur un savoir positif considérable, de divers domaines de la connaissance et de l’activité humaines. Compris comme autant d’essais pour élucider, grâce à la coopération de la spéculation et de l’empirie, la question : Qu’est-ce que l’homme ? reconnue comme la question fondamentale de la philosophie, les écrits apparemment hétérogènes de cette période décisive révèlent alors une réelle unité. Cette pensée, ainsi dévoilée, se montre comme une tentative très originale, sans doute en son temps inactuelle, pour frayer, à partir du criticisme décelé comme le début de la modernité, une voie tout à fait autre que celle qui, de Fichte à Hegel, s’est imposée à la postérité, celle d’une anthropologie philosophique, qui effectue la transformation de la philosophie transcendantale en une philosophie de l’homme. Celle-ci, élaborée très tôt, au tournant de deux siècles, contient la clé de l’intelligibilité de ce qu’on appelle la « philosophie du langage » de Humboldt, laquelle n’est, de fait, que l’ultime figure, celle qui achève cette transformation en découvrant le langage comme la médiation dernière entre l’homme et le monde. Dans cette optique, cette pensée authentiquement philosophique peut être appréciée comme l’origine d’une interprétation de l’univers humain qui ne trouvera sa reprise qu’en notre siècle.

Download or read book Regimes of Comparatism written by Renaud Gagné and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-11-05 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, all societies have used comparison to analyze cultural difference through the interaction of religion, power, and translation. When comparison is a self-reflective practice, it can be seen as a form of comparatism. Many scholars are concerned in one way or another with the practice and methods of comparison, and the need for a cognitively robust relativism is an integral part of a mature historical self-placement. This volume looks at how different theories and practices of writing and interpretation have developed at different times in different cultures and reconsiders the specificities of modern comparative approaches within a variety of comparative moments. The idea is to reconsider the specificities, the obstacles, and the possibilities of modern comparative approaches in history and anthropology through a variety of earlier and parallel comparative horizons. Particular attention is given to the exceptional role of Athens and Jerusalem in shaping the Western understanding of cultural difference. Contributors are: Matei Candea, Philippe Descola, Renaud Gagné, Simon Goldhill, Anthony Grafton, Caroline Humphrey, Dmitri Levitin, Geoffrey Lloyd, Joan-Pau Rubiés, Jonathan Sheehan, Marilyn Strathern, Guy Stroumsa, and Phiroze Vasunia.

Download or read book Minerva s Message written by Martin S. Staum and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1996-10-17 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In theory the CMPS was set up to enshrine the human and social studies that were at the heart of Enlightenment culture. Staum illustrates, however, that the Institute helped transform key ideas of the Enlightenment in order to maintain civil rights while upholding social stability, and that the social and political assumptions on which it was based affected notions of social science. He traces the careers of individual members and the factions within the Institute, arguing that the discord within the CMPS reflects the unravelling of Enlightenment culture. Minerva's Message presents a valuable overview of the intellectual life of the period and brings together new evidence about the social sciences in their nascent period.

Download or read book After Ethnos written by Tobias Rees and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-25 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most of the twentieth century, anthropologists understood themselves as ethnographers. The art of anthropology was the fieldwork-based description of faraway others—of how social structures secretly organized the living-together of a given society, of how a people had endowed the world surrounding them with cultural meaning. While the poetics and politics of anthropology have changed dramatically over the course of a century, the basic equation of anthropology with ethnography—as well as the definition of the human as a social and cultural being—has remained so evident that the possibility of questioning it occurred to hardly anyone. In After Ethnos Tobias Rees endeavors to decouple anthropology from ethnography—and the human from society and culture—and explores the manifold possibilities of practicing a question-based rather than an answer-based anthropology that emanates from this decoupling. What emerges from Rees's provocations is a new understanding of anthropology as a philosophically and poetically inclined, fieldwork-based investigation of what it could mean to be human when the established concepts of the human on which anthropology has been built increasingly fail us.

Download or read book The Disenchantment of Art written by Rainer Rochlitz and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 1998-02-15 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty years after his death, Walter Benjamin remains one of the great cultural critics of this century. Despite his renown, however, Benjamin's philosophical ideas remain elusive--often considered a disaggregated set of thoughts not meant to cohere. This book provides a more systematic perspective on Benjamin, laying claim to his status as a philosopher and situating his work in the context of its time. Exploring Benjamin's theory of language, spoken and nonspoken, Rainer Rochlitz shows how Benjamin reconceptualized traditional ideas of language, art, and history. Offering an expansive assessment of a unique twentieth-century thinker, this volume provides an indispensable guide for readers of Benjamin's recently released collected works.
