Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Den Beiträgen dieses Bandes geht es um das Verhältnis zweier Schreibweisen: Literatur und Philosophie. Beide Schreibweisen reflektieren Wirklichkeiten, die Konstitutionsweisen von Wirklichkeit, aber sie tun dies in unterschiedlicher Weise, als Darstellung oder Denken, als Ästhetik oder Analytik ihres Gegenstandes. Die Frage nach den Wirklichkeiten, die literarisches und philosophisches Schreiben durchspielen, ist damit nicht so sehr die nach den Inhalten von Literatur und Philosophie, sondern der Struktur des Entwurfs, den sie von der Wirklichkeit herstellen, nach ihrem 'Wirklichkeitsbegriff' (Hans Blumenberg). In Frage steht dabei der komplementäre oder konkurrierende Weltbezug von Literatur und Philosophie, ihre jeweilige Art und Weise, Welt zu lesen, Welt zu repräsentieren, Welt zu schreiben.

Book excerpt: In diesem Buch untersucht der amerikanische Philosoph und Filmtheoretiker Stanley Cavell, wie Gemeinschaften, Städte der Worte, sich entwickeln, aber auch stillstehen und verfallen können. Dabei bringt er Traditionen miteinander ins Gespräch, die sich aus alter Gewohnheit und Misstrauen wenig zu sagen haben: Schwergewichte der Philosophie von Platon bis zur Gegenwart und vermeintliche Leichtgewichte der Kunst wie die Filmkomödien und Melodramen Hollywoods in den dreissiger und vierziger Jahren. Es zeigt sich, dass die Mittel, mit denen diese Filme Schwierigkeiten und Illusionen ehelicher Gemeinschaft darstellen, Erstaunliches zu den Gesichtspunkten beitragen können, unter denen Platon und Locke die Bedingungen und Bedrohungen der politischen Gemeinschaft untersuchen, aber auch zu Emersons und Nietzsches Diagnosen des Konformismus in der Kultur. Mitbestimmung in der politischen Gemeinschaft verlangt ebenso wie in Freundschaft und Ehe danach, eine eigene Stimme zu entwickeln; eine Problematik, die, wie Cavell zeigt, als Dauerthema die Screwballkomödien durchzieht. Der Band bietet neben Interpretationen von Werken Freuds, Shakespeares, Ibsens, Shaws und Henry James' nicht nur eine Einführung zu Klassikern der Philosophie von Platon über Aristoteles, Locke, Kant, Emerson, Nietzsche bis hin zu Mill und Rawls, sondern auch einen neuen, höchst vergnüglichen Zugang zu Klassikern der Filmgeschichte wie “It Happened One Night” (Es geschah in einer Nacht), “The Philadelphia Story” (Die Nacht vor der Hochzeit), “Adam's Rib” (Ehekrieg), “Gaslight” (Das Haus der Lady Alquist), “Mr. Deeds Goes to Town” (Mr. Deeds geht in die Stadt), “Now, Voyager” (Reise aus der Vergangenheit), “Stella Dallas”, “The Lady Eve” (Die Falschspielerin), “His Girl Friday” (Sein Mädchen für besondere Fälle), “The Awful Truth” (Die schreckliche Wahrheit) und “Conte d'Hiver” (Ein Wintermärchen).
Download or read book Shakespearean Genealogies of Power written by Anselm Haverkamp and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-10-18 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shakespearean Genealogies of Power proposes a new view on Shakespeare’s involvement with the legal sphere: as a visible space between the spheres of politics and law and well able to negotiate legal and political, even constitutional concerns, Shakespeare’s theatre opened up a new perspective on normativity. His plays reflect, even create, "history" in a new sense on the premises of the older conceptions of historical and legal exemplarity: examples, cases, and instances are to be reflected rather than treated as straightforwardly didactic or salvific. Thus, what comes to be recognized, reflected and acknowledged has a disowning, alienating effect, whose enduring aftermath rather than its theatrical immediacy counts and remains effective. In Shakespeare, the law gets hold of its normativity as the problematic efficacy of unsolved – or rarely ever completely solved – problems: on the stage of the theatre, the law has to cope with a mortgage of history rather than with its own success story. The exemplary interplay of critical cultural and legal theory in the twentieth-century – between Carl Schmitt and Hans Kelsen, Walter Benjamin and Ernst Kantorowicz, Hans Blumenberg and Giorgio Agamben, Robert Cover and Niklas Luhmann – found in Shakespeare’s plays its speculative instruments.
Download or read book The Art of Freedom written by Juliane Rebentisch and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of democratic freedom refers to more than the kind of freedom embodied by political institutions and procedures. Democratic freedom can only be properly understood if it is grasped as the expression of a culture of freedom that encompasses an entire form of life. Juliane Rebentisch’s systematic and historical approach demonstrates that we can learn a great deal about the democratic culture of freedom from its philosophical critics. From Plato to Carl Schmitt, the critique of democratic culture has always been articulated as a critique of its ãaestheticization“. Rebentisch defends various phenomena of aestheticization Ð from the irony typical of democratic citizens to the theatricality of the political Ð as constitutive elements of democratic culture and the notion of freedom at the heart of its ethical and political self-conception. This work will be of particular interest to students of Political Theory, Philosophy and Aesthetics.

Download or read book Force A Fundamental Concept of Aesthetic Anthropology written by Christoph Menke and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book aims at a new exposition of the basic idea of modern aesthetics by way of a reconstruction of its genesis in the 18th century, between Baumgarten''s Aesthetics and Kant''s Critique of Judgment. The claim is that the historical invention of aesthetics was not about expanding the range of legitimate objects of philosophical inquiry--these objects all existed before aesthetics. Rather, aesthetics, by introducing the category of the "aesthetic," fundamentally redefined these objects. But most importantly, the reconstruction of the historical genesis of aesthetics shows that the introduction of the category of the "aesthetic" required nothing less than a transformation of the fundamental terms of philosophy. What begins in--or as--aesthetics is modern philosophy. More precisely, Force shows that in--or as--aesthetics modern philosophy began twice, in two different, even opposite forms. On the one hand, Baumgarten''s Aesthetics is organized around the new concept of the "subject": the concept of the subject as the totality of faculties, as the agent defined by his capabilities; of the subject as one who is able. By conceiving sensible cognition and (re)presentation as the exercise of subjective faculties acquired in practice, Baumgarten has framed the modern conception of human practices (and of philosophy as the inquiry into the conditions that enable the success of these practices). That is why aesthetics, the reflection upon the aesthetic, is a central pillar of modern philosophy: in aesthetics, the philosophy of the subject or of the subject''s faculties assures itself of its own possibility. Yet here, in the aesthetic and the reflection on it, the aesthetics "in the Baumgartian manner" (Herder), as the theory of the sensible faculties of the subject, at once faces a different aesthetics: the aesthetics of force, which conceives the aesthetic not as sensible cognition but instead as a play of expression--propelled by a force that, rather than being exercised, like a faculty, in practices, realizes itself; a force that does not recognize or represent anything because it is "obscure" and unconscious; a force not of the subject but of man as distinct from the same man as subject. The aesthetics of force is a science of the nature of man: of his aesthetic nature as distinct from the culture, acquired by practice, of his practices. That is the hypothesis the six chapters of Force intend to unfold. The first chapter, analyzing the rationalist concept of the sensible, recollects the point of departure of aesthetics: the sensible is that which is without determinable definition or measure. The second chapter reconstructs Baumgarten''s aesthetics of sensible cognition as a theory of the subject and its faculties. The third and fourth chapters draw on writings by Herder, Sulzer, and Mendelssohn to develop the basic motifs of a counter-model, an aesthetics of force: the aesthetic, as the operation of an "obscure" force, is a performance without generality, divorced from all norm, law, and purpose--a play. And the aesthetic, as the pleasure of self-reflection, is a process of the transformation of the subject, of its faculties and practices--a process of aestheticization. The aesthetics of force founds an anthropology of difference: between force and faculty, between man and subject. The two concluding chapters explore the consequences: for the idea of philosophical aesthetics; and for ethics as the theory of the good. The fifth chapter engages Kant to show that an aesthetics conceived as an aesthetics of force is the scene of an irresolvable contention: aesthetics unfolds within philosophy the contention between philosophy and aesthetic experience. The sixth chapter draws on Nietzsche to demonstrate the ethical import of aesthetic experience as the experience of the play of force: it teaches us to distinguish between action and life; it teaches the other good of life. - "The last word of aesthetics is human freedom."
Download or read book Figures of Simplicity written by Birgit M. Kaiser and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-01-02 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Figures of Simplicity explores a unique constellation of figures from philosophy and literature—Heinrich von Kleist, Herman Melville, G. W. Leibniz, and Alexander Baumgarten—in an attempt to recover alternative conceptions of aesthetics and dimensions of thinking lost in the disciplinary narration of aesthetics after Kant. This is done primarily by tracing a variety of "simpletons" that populate the writings of Kleist and Melville. These figures are not entirely ignorant, or stupid, but simple. Their simplicity is a way of thinking; one that author Birgit Mara Kaiser here suggests is affective thinking. Kaiser avers that Kleist and Melville are experimenting in their texts with an affective mode of thinking, and thereby continue, she argues, a key line within eighteenth-century aesthetics: the relation of rationality and sensibility. Through her analyses, she offers an outline of what thinking can look like if we take affectivity into account.

Download or read book Saturn s Moons written by Jo Catling and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 694 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The German novelist, poet and critic W. G. Sebald (1944-2001) has in recent years attracted a phenomenal international following for his evocative prose works such as Die Ausgewanderten (The Emigrants), Die Ringe des Saturn (The Rings of Saturn) and Austerlitz, spellbinding elegiac narratives which, through their deliberate blurring of genre boundaries and provocative use of photography, explore questions of Heimat and exile, memory and loss, history and natural history, art and nature. Saturn's Moons: a W. G. Sebald Handbook brings together in one volume a wealth of new critical and visual material on Sebald's life and works, covering the many facets and phases of his literary and academic careers -- as teacher, as scholar and critic, as colleague and as collaborator on translation. Lavishly illustrated, the Handbook also contains a number of rediscovered short pieces by W. G. Sebald, hitherto unpublished interviews, a catalogue of his library, and selected poems and tributes, as well as extensive primary and secondary bibliographies, details of audiovisual material and interviews, and a chronology of life and works. Drawing on a range of original sources from Sebald's Nachlass - the most important part of which is now held in the Deutsches Literaturarchiv Marbach - Saturn's Moons6g will be an invaluable sourcebook for future Sebald studies in English and German alike, complementing and augmenting recent critical works on subjects such as history, memory, modernity, reader response and the visual. The contributors include Mark Anderson, Anthea Bell, Ulrich von Buelow, Jo Catling, Michael Hulse, Florian Radvan, Uwe Schuette, Clive Scott, Richard Sheppard, Gordon Turner, Stephen Watts and Luke Williams. Jo Catling teaches in the School of Literature at the University of East Anglia and Richard Hibbitt in the Department of French at the University of Leeds.
Download or read book Die andere Vernunft written by Lars-Thade Ulrichs and published by ISSN. This book was released on 2011-06-08 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die ideengeschichtlich orientierte, interdisziplinär angelegte Studie fragt nach dem spannungsreichen Verhältnis von Philosophie und Literatur zwischen Spätaufklärung und Romantik. Dabei verfolgt sie das Anliegen, einerseits zwischen Philosophie und Literatur eine systematisch begründete Kontinuität herzustellen und andererseits zwischen Aufklärung und Romantik eine historische Kontinuität zu etablieren. Das ideengeschichtliche Grundproblem, welche Diskursform in der Krise der Metaphysik am besten geeignet ist, die Selbstaufklärung der Vernunft und die Selbstverständigung des Menschen in der Moderne zu befördern, wird auf breiter Textbasis diskutiert und in unterschiedlichen Reaktionen ausgeleuchtet: Die Philosophie des Deutschen Idealismus versteht sich im Gefolge Kants als Fundamentaldisziplin; die literarische Spätaufklärung ist dem pragmatischen Paradigma verpflichtet und erhebt den Roman zur zentralen Diskursform; die Frühromantik vertritt die Auffassung der Kunst als genuiner Form von Metaphysik, wonach nur in der Kunst das Absolute angemessen dargestellt und ein tragfähiges Subjektivitätskonzept entwickelt werden könne. Als gemeinsames zentrales Merkmal dieser Diskursformationen identifiziert der Autor die Autoreflexivität, die sich nicht zuletzt in der narrativen Struktur des modernen Romans entfaltet. Die vielschichtige und grundlegende Studie wurde 2008 mit dem Christian-Gottlob-Heyne-Preis als beste Göttinger geisteswissenschaftliche Dissertation des Jahres ausgezeichnet.
