Download or read book Bio Art written by Julio Velasco and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2024-09-30 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the face of climate change, the destruction of biodiversity or genetic experimentation, Bio Art appears as a form that is most directly grappling with the problems of the »Anthropocene«. It develops many different approaches and explores a variety of mediums, often related to scientific research, creating art that uses plants, insects, mammals, bacteria, bird songs, forest sounds, or genetic modification. Bio Art's uniqueness comes from incorporating, rather than just representing the living in a diverse range of artworks. In discussing such works from various world regions and time periods, the contributors address the divide between human and non-human animals, between »culture« and »nature«.

Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage livre des témoignages de relations intenses avec les arbres. Ces dernières relèvent parfois de dispositions continues, concernant des pans entiers de l’existence, d’autres au contraire d’expériences circonscrites dans le temps ; elles vont de sensations hors normes jusqu’à des moments mystiques, en passant par des communications qui transcendent l’ordinaire. Il y est même question du rôle des arbres dans une expérience de mort imminente. Ces récits, rassemblés par Ernst Zürcher, scientifique forestier internationalement reconnu pour l’importance de ses travaux, proviennent de personnalités diverses rencontrées au gré des conférences données par l’auteur. Ils manifestent le regain et la diffusion d’une sensibilité renouvelée aux arbres. Puisse-t-elle se diffuser plus encore et contrecarrer la destruction du vivant à laquelle nous continuons de contribuer avec obstination.

Download or read book Entre les actes written by Virginia Woolf and published by Newcomb Livraria Press. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Une nouvelle traduction française de 2023 de "Entre les actes" de la célèbre romancière anglaise Virginia Woolf, avec une introduction du traducteur. Adeline Virginia Woolf était une romancière et critique victorienne, largement considérée comme l'une des plus importantes romancières féministes de tous les temps. Ses techniques de flux de conscience et son style poétique comptent parmi les contributions les plus importantes à la fiction moderne. En raison de l'importance de Woolf en tant qu'innovatrice de la forme du roman moderne et commentatrice de la quasi-totalité de la littérature anglaise et européenne, sa vie a fait l'objet de nombreuses recherches. Woolf a écrit neuf romans majeurs ainsi que des essais sur la théorie de l'art, l'histoire littéraire, l'écriture des femmes et la politique du pouvoir. Les tentatives de Woolf pour capturer les moments fugaces de la vie à travers les modèles, les structures et les images de son écriture, probablement les plus influentes utilisées dans les monologues internes pour communiquer des couches de pensées, de sentiments et de perceptions. Pour la première fois, tous ses romans sont disponibles en français moderne. Le dernier roman de Virginia Woolf, "Between the Acts", est considéré comme l'une de ses œuvres les plus novatrices et est connu pour son approche expérimentale de la structure narrative. Situé dans l'Angleterre rurale de l'été 1939, le roman raconte l'histoire d'une petite communauté qui se prépare pour un spectacle local. Alors que les villageois mettent au point leur spectacle, la menace imminente de la guerre jette une ombre sur les événements. À travers les interactions des personnages et le récit du spectacle, Woolf explore les effets de l'histoire sur le présent et l'avenir. Au centre du roman se trouve le spectacle de l'histoire de l'Angleterre qui se joue. Il commence dans un passé lointain et culmine à l'heure actuelle, avec l'arrivée de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. À travers ce récit, Woolf réfléchit à l'héritage du passé et aux conséquences de la guerre. Elle examine les façons dont le passé affecte le présent, et les façons dont nos actions d'aujourd'hui auront un impact sur l'avenir. En présentant le récit de la reconstitution historique de manière fragmentée et décousue, Woolf transmet l'idée que l'histoire est un processus continu et que notre compréhension de celle-ci est incomplète.

Download or read book Beyond Given Knowledge written by Harri Veivo and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effort to go beyond given knowledge in different domains – artistic, scientific, political, metaphysical – is a characteristic driving force in modernism and the avant-gardes. Since the late 19th century, artists and writers have frequently investigated their medium and its limits, pursued political and religious aims, and explored hitherto unknown physical, social and conceptual spaces, often in ways that combine these forms of critical inquiry into one and provoke further theoretical and methodological innovations. The fifth volume of the EAM series casts light on the history and actuality of investigations, quests and explorations in the European avant-garde and modernism from the late 19th century to the present day. The authors seek to answer questions such as: How have modernism and the avant-garde appropriated scientific knowledge, religious dogmas and social conventions, pursuing their investigation beyond the limits of given knowledge and conceptions? How have modernism and avant-garde created new conceptual models or representations where other discourses have allegedly failed? In what ways do practises of investigation, quest or exploration shape artistic work or the formal and thematic structures of artworks?
Download or read book La Pensee logique et politique de M Marleau Ponty written by Joseph M Labaki and published by eBook Partnership. This book was released on 2021-01-20 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maurice Merleau-Ponty is the giant phenomenologist of his time in the entire French-speaking world. He is not an epistemologist nor a moralist. For him, the beginning of the beginning is human flesh; the flesh becomes word, the word becomes flesh, and both die. There is science, and there is experience/perception. The mother is the latter. They aren't contradictory, but complete and depend on each other. With regard to language, for him, there are words, and there is grammar. A word is never empty, but carries its own weight; even a lie is full of meaning. Liberty resides in grammar, an individual function and independent from books. It's in the grammar where singularity lives. Thinking and talking are the same. Wherever there is human life, there is meaning, and that is irrespective of age, culture, religion, education or social position. Merleau-Ponty is not a Marxist nor a communist. According to him, history is blind; it has no mind. He also finds a flaw in Freudianism. Flesh is an infinite universe full of stars and black holes. Following Merleau-Ponty, verity is devoiler, and devoiler is verity, but verity is never absolute. One must take a step back. There is light and there is shadow; they never coincide in human life. The shadow is always first, and no matter how one tries to run, he will never catch his shadow.

Download or read book Exercices d histoire des religions written by Philippe Borgeaud and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2016-05-18 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exercices d’histoire des religions is a collection of the most important articles published by Philippe Borgeaud during his career as the professor of history of religions at the University of Geneva (Switzerland). These nineteen studies showcase the many reflections of the Swiss scholar of religion on the categories and tools used to describe and compare such evanescent concepts as “religions”, “myths” and “rituals”, and his methodology for a critical and comparative study of ancient and modern religions. Through them, readers will gain a clear understanding of the importance such an approach can wield in the contemporary discussions and dissents about religions. Exercices d’histoire des religions rassemble les articles les plus importants publiés par Philippe Borgeaud durant sa carrière en tant que professeur d’histoire des religions à l’Université de Genève. Ces dix-neuf enquêtes illustrent les réflexions du savant suisse sur les outils et catégories utilisés par l’historien des religions pour décrire et comparer des concepts aussi évanescents que les « religions », les « mythes » ou les « rituels », et sur le rôle joué par les émotions dans leur élaboration. À travers eux, le lecteur est amené à découvrir la méthode développée par Philippe Borgeaud pour étudier de manière critique et comparative les religions antiques et modernes, une approche sans doute fondamentale pour mieux saisir les discussions et controverses contemporaines sur ce sujet.
