Book excerpt: À travers des séries de paradoxes antiques et modernes, ce livre cherche à déterminer le statut du sens et du non-sens, et d’abord leur lieu. Où se passe exactement ce qu’on appelle un « événement » ? La profondeur, la hauteur et la surface entrent dans des rapports complexes constitutifs de la vie. Les stoïciens furent un nouveau type de philosophes, Lewis Carroll fut un nouveau type d’écrivain, parce qu’ils partaient à la conquête des surfaces. Il se peut que cette conquête soit le plus grand effort de la vie psychique, dans la sexualité comme dans la pensée. Et que, dans le sens et dans le non-sens, « le plus profond, c’est la peau ». Logique du sens est paru en 1969.

Book Tome 1 Philosophie du langage  Logique philosophique   Volume 1 Philosophy of language  Philosophical logic

Download or read book Tome 1 Philosophie du langage Logique philosophique Volume 1 Philosophy of language Philosophical logic written by Guttorm Fløistad and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present publication is a continuation of two earlier series of chronicles, Philosophy in the Mid-Century (Firenze 1958/59) and Contemporary Philosophy (Firenze 1968), edited by Raymond KJibansky. As with the earlier series the present chronicles purport to give a survey of significant trends in contemporary philosophi cal discussion. The time space covered by the present series is (approximately) 1966-1978. The need for such surveys has, I believe, increased rather than decreased over the last years. The philosophical scene appears, for various reasons, more complex than ever before. The continuing process of specialization in most branches, the emergence of new schools of thought, particularly in philosophical logic and the philosophy of language, the convergence of interest (though not necessarily of opinion) of different traditions upon certain prob lems, and the increasing attention being paid to the history of philosophy in discussions of contemporary problems are the most important contributory factors. Surveys of the present kind are a valuable source of knowledge of this complexity and may as such be an assistance in renewing the understanding of one's own philosophical problems. The surveys, it is to be hoped, may also help to strengthen the Socratic element of modem philosophy, the dialogue or Kommu nikationsgemeinschajt. So far, four volumes have been prepared for the new series. The present chronicles in the Philosophy of Language and Philosophi cal Logic (Vol. I), are followed by chronicles in the Philosophy of Science (Vol. II), and Philosophy of Action (Vol.

Book Encyclopedia of Contemporary Literary Theory

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Contemporary Literary Theory written by Irene Rima Makaryk and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 676 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last half of the twentieth century has seen the emergence of literary theory as a new discipline. As with any body of scholarship, various schools of thought exist, and sometimes conflict, within it. I.R. Makaryk has compiled a welcome guide to the field. Accessible and jargon-free, the Encyclopedia of Contemporary Literary Theory provides lucid, concise explanations of myriad approaches to literature that have arisen over the past forty years. Some 170 scholars from around the world have contributed their expertise to this volume. Their work is organized into three parts. In Part I, forty evaluative essays examine the historical and cultural context out of which new schools of and approaches to literature arose. The essays also discuss the uses and limitations of the various schools, and the key issues they address. Part II focuses on individual theorists. It provides a more detailed picture of the network of scholars not always easily pigeonholed into the categories of Part I. This second section analyses the individual achievements, as well as the influence, of specific scholars, and places them in a larger critical context. Part III deals with the vocabulary of literary theory. It identifies significant, complex terms, places them in context, and explains their origins and use. Accessibility is a key feature of the work. By avoiding jargon, providing mini-bibliographies, and cross-referencing throughout, Makaryk has provided an indispensable tool for literary theorists and historians and for all scholars and students of contemporary criticism and culture.

Book Philosophy Through The Looking Glass

Download or read book Philosophy Through The Looking Glass written by Jean-Jacques Lecercle and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-08-05 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is generally accepted that language is primarily a means of communication. But do we always mean what we say – must we mean something when we talk? This book explores the other side of language, where words are incoherent and meaning fails us. it argues that this shadey side of language is more important in our everyday speech than linguists and philosophers recognize. Historically this other side of language known as has attracted more attention in France than elsewhere. It is particularly interesting because it brings together texts from a wide range of fields, including fiction, poetry and linguistics. The author also discusses the kind of linguistics that must be developed to deal with such texts, a linguistics which makes use of psychoanalytic knowledge. This tradition of writing has produced a major philosopher, Gilles Deleuze. This book provides an introduction to his work, an account of his original theory of meaning and an analysis of the celebrated Anti-Oedipus, which takes délire as one of its main themes.

  • ISBN : 9400722117
  • Pages : 537 pages

Download or read book Life Subjectivity Art written by Roland Breeur and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-04 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains essays written by eminent phenomenologists & scholars closely related to R. Bernet, a person and a philosopher (colleagues, friends and collaborators, former students). The intellectual and worldwide authority of R. Bernet's work is well represented by the list of contributors, as well as by the content of their chapters. In a sense, this volume is a good indication of the importance of Bernet's own books, articles and classes. The editors have chosen to concentrate the contributions on what could be estimated to be one of the three major themes of his philosophical itinerary: life, seen from a phenomenological point of view, its relation to subjectivity, experiences and consciousness, and both seen as the ground for an original reflection on art (paintings).

Book The Ethics of Representation in Literature  Art  and Journalism

Download or read book The Ethics of Representation in Literature Art and Journalism written by Caroline Rooney and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-07 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This transnational collection of essays, interviews, and creative pieces on the 1982 Siege of Beirut explores literary representations of the siege by a diverse set of writers alongside journalism and other media including film and art. The book investigates and promotes an awareness of an ethics of representation on questions of extreme emotional investment, comparing representations of the siege to representations of other traumatic events, visiting responses from those of different cultural backgrounds to the same event and considering implications with respect to comparative approaches. Chapters explore how literature, journalism and art contribute to overcoming the dangers of forgetting and denial, memorial excess and fundamentalism, the radicalization of violence, and the complete breakdown of trust on international levels, asking how they challenge geopolitical, intellectual, and psychological states of siege and instead promote awareness, acknowledgement, mourning, and justice across divided communities. The book extends the use of postcolonial methodologies affiliated with history, international relations, and psychoanalysis (memory, trauma) to Middle-Eastern studies, and visits the siege’s effect on different forms of memory and memorialization: selective memory, trauma, gaps and fissures in historical accounts, recording of eyewitness reports, and artistic re-imaginings and realizations of alternative archives.

Book A Reading of Gilles Deleuze   s Logic of Sense

Download or read book A Reading of Gilles Deleuze s Logic of Sense written by Mehdi Parsa and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-11-07 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a reading of Gilles Deleuze’s masterpiece Logic of Sense. It provides a thorough and systematic reading of Deleuze’s book by focusing on the aspects that are neglected in the existing literature. Specifically, the claim that Deleuze’s Logic of Sense provides a convincing answer for the most important question of the history of philosophy regarding the relation between thought and existence as well as the relation between logic and ontology is defended. The answer is that if thought is related to existence, logic is supposed to be, not the logic of essence, but rather the logic of sense. This analysis s pursued respectively through Deleuze’s readings of Frege, the ancient Stoics, Lewis Carroll, Kant, Lautman, Leibniz, and Melanie Klein.

Book excerpt: L'oeuvre de Renaud Camus compte plus de cinquante titres dans une dizaine de genres différents. Son journal, qui se poursuit depuis une bonne vingtaine d'années, combine le récit d'une intimité émouvante avec une vue riche et perspicace de la société d'aujourd'hui. Ses romans proposent des fictions baroques où le goût de l'aventure et l'inspiration du jeu donnent le ton. La rubrique 'topographie' propose d'extraordinaires voyages de découverte dans plusieurs régions de la 'France profonde'. Son site sur le 'WEB' est un des plus originaux dans le domaine littéraire. Autour de ces pôles gravitent d'autres textes, de méditation et de plaisir, de deuil et de réflexion. Le lien à la fois universel et très personnel qui réunit toutes ces écritures est marqué par la vivacité et l'impulsion du désir. Pour la première fois la présente étude tente de donner une vue d'ensemble de la production camusienne en prenant comme point de départ la figure d'Eros et en orientant l'exploration suivant les nombreuses pistes qui séduisent le lecteur enthousiaste .
