Book Difference and Repetition

Download or read book Difference and Repetition written by Gilles Deleuze and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its publication in 1968, "Difference and Repetition", an exposition of the critique of identity, has come to be considered a contemporary classic in philosophy and one of Deleuze's most important works. The text follows the development of two central concepts, those of pure difference and complex repetition. It shows how the two concepts are related, difference implying divergence and decentring, repetition being associated with displacement and disguising. The work moves deftly between Hegel, Kierkegaard, Freud, Althusser and Nietzsche to establish a fundamental critique of Western metaphysics, and has been a central text in initiating the shift in French thought - away from Hegel and Marx, towards Nietzsche and Freud.

Book The Difference Between Fichte s and Schelling s System of Philosophy

Download or read book The Difference Between Fichte s and Schelling s System of Philosophy written by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1977-01-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this essay, Hegel attempted to show how Fichte's Science of Knowledge was an advance from the position of Kant in the Critique of Pure Reason, and how Schelling (and incidentally Hegel himself) had made a further advance from the position of Fichte. Hegel finds the idealism of Fichte too abstractly subjective and formalistic, and he tries to show how Schelling's philosophy of nature is the remedy for these weaknesses. But the most important philosophical content of the essay is probably to be found in his general introduction to these critical efforts where he deals with a number of problems about philosophical method in a way which is of general interest to philosophers, and not merely interesting to those who accept the Hegelian "dialectic method" which grew out of these first beginnings. Finally, the Difference essay is important in the development of "Nature-Philosophy" as a movement in the history of science.

Book Same Difference

  • Author : Carol Lee Bacchi
  • Publisher : Taylor & Francis
  • Release : 2024-09-30
  • ISBN : 1040117392
  • Pages : 333 pages

Download or read book Same Difference written by Carol Lee Bacchi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-09-30 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are women the same as or different from men? Should women seek ‘equality’ with men or admit their ‘difference’? First published in 1990, Same Difference explores these highly-charged political questions by examining how the women’s movement has engaged with them over time and in three countries—Australia, Britain, and America. Case studies include disputes about maternity leave, protective legislation, affirmative action, custody, pornography, rape, and women’s supposed metaphysical differences from men—their greater nurturing and caring capacity. Challenging a common view of the women’s movement as perpetually riven into ‘sameness’ and ‘difference’ camps, Same Difference highlights the political conditions which impel some feminists to argue in these terms. The implication of the analysis is that debates about sexual difference divert attention from important social issues such as how society is to reproduce itself and what kind of society we wish to create. This book will be a beneficial read for students and researchers of feminist theory, women’s studies, and sociology.

Book In a Different Key

Download or read book In a Different Key written by John Joseph Donvan and published by Crown. This book was released on 2016 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many others played starring roles too: doctors like Leo Kanner, who pioneered our understanding of autism; lawyers like Tom Gilhool, who took the families' battle for education to the courtroom; scientists who sparred over how to treat autism; and those with autism, like Temple Grandin, Alex Plank, and Ari Ne'eman, who explained their inner worlds and championed the philosophy of neurodiversity. This is also a story of fierce controversies--from the question of whether there is truly an autism "epidemic," and whether vaccines played a part in it; to scandals involving "facilitated communication," one of many treatments that have proved to be blind alleys; to stark disagreements about whether scientists should pursue a cure for autism.

Book A Different Kind of Happiness

Download or read book A Different Kind of Happiness written by Dr. Larry Crabb and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2016-07-05 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to Love When You Don't Feel Like Loving Everywhere we look, we see evidence that love is in short supply. Terrorists and political corruption, school shootings and troubled marriages, impatient online sniping and character assassination--all point to the fact that we do not know how to love one another as Jesus commanded and modeled. We put our own interests and happiness first, despite the fact that the greatest happiness comes through sacrificial love. In this book, Dr. Larry Crabb shows readers how to understand the deep and perfect love we are shown by our Creator and Redeemer, and how to pour that love into other people. This love is about more than being nice and serving others. It's about relating to others in such a way that they feel heard, seen, and valued. This love sacrifices and suffers and keeps loving, even when doing so is costly. This kind of love, says Crabb, is the kind worth fighting for in all of our relationships, and A Different Kind of Happiness shows how to make it a reality.
