Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her Introduction, Tymieniecka states the core theme of the present book sharply: Is culture an excess of nature's prodigious expansiveness - an excess which might turn out to be dangerous for nature itself if it goes too far - or is culture a 'natural', congenial prolongation of nature-life? If the latter, then culture is assimilated into nature and thus would lose its claim to autonomy: its criteria would be superseded by those of nature alone. Of course, nature and culture may both still be seen as being absorbed by the inner powers of specifically human inwardness, on which view, human being, caught in its own transcendence, becomes separated radically in kind from the rest of existence and may not touch even the shadow of reality except through its own prism. Excess, therefore, or prolongation? And on what terms? The relationship between culture and nature in its technical phase demands a new elucidation. Here this is pursued by excavating the root significance of the 'multiple rationalities' of life. In contrast to Husserl, who differentiated living types according to their degree of participation in the world, the phenomenology of life disentangles living types from within the ontopoietic web of life itself. The human creative act reveals itself as the Great Divide of the Logos of Life - a divide that does not separate but harmonizes, thus dispelling both naturalistic and spiritualistic reductionism.
Download or read book Meditaciones de Madrugada written by Enrique Bustamante and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-09-16 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El viajar por América Latina nos enseña que tenemos iguales problemas económicos, que vivimos influenciados por la religión católica, y que soñamos... Racialmente, en cada país ha habido una población indígena, que con la llegada de españoles se convirtió en mestiza, a todo ello se fue incrementado los europeos que llegaron a estas tierras huyendo de las tiranías, la hambruna, las pestes, y otras plagas socioeconómicas y religiosas. Sin duda el problema racial no es ajeno a ninguno de nuestros países, es una herencia traída por los españoles desde el viejo continente, hay castas que mantienen costumbres arraigadas, dejando en extrema pobreza a quienes son descendientes directos de los antiguos y naturales pobladores de estas tierras. La economía se ha globalizado, y capitales extranjeros juegan en la Bolsa de Valores, indistintamente de quien explota, quien vende, quien arriesga o quien dilapida la riqueza nacional.

Download or read book Signs of Science written by Dale J. Pratt and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Signs of Science: Literature, Science, and Spanish Modernity since 1868 traces how Spanish culture represented scientific activity from the mid-nineteenth century onward. The book combines the global perspective afforded by historical narrative with detailed rhetorical analyses of images of science in specific literary and scientific texts. As literary criticism it seeks to illuminate similarities and differences in how science and scientists are pictured; as cultural history it follows the course of a centuries-long dialogue about Spain and science.

Book excerpt: My art is a gateway to your own understanding. It intends to make you dig a Little Deeper and forget reality for an instant. Letting your mind tell you and see how your soul deep inside responds, you will find that somehow we all share some desires as humans : we need a work of art that will give you hope, in which you will find the motivation of your happiness as an individual, completely fulfilled within the childhood dreams you set so long ago for yourself, and also as a member of a community of other singular individuals who are essential to your growth. In my book, I opened a bag of memories making it clear that we advance and, even if we feel that we remain pretty much the same, it is only by Looking Back that we can see any evolution. And mainly that there is clearly someone that we become! Through my paintings and my words, I want to inspire you to walk your own path, in your own terms, with a determined belief in a future of Hope and joy. Let's be Dissidents. Let's not resign. I created this illustrated book with my artworks and some experiences of my life . Honoured by the incredible support of many friends, who follow my work and read my reflections , I decided to make it available and within reach of everyone. I wanted to share the evolution of my Art. The book is written in English, Spanish and French.

Download or read book Forms of Modernity written by Rachel Schmidt and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2011-04-09 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's a critical cliché that Cervantes' Don Quixote is the first modern novel, but this distinction raises two fundamental questions. First, how does one define a novel? And second, what is the relationship between this genre and understandings of modernity? In Forms of Modernity, Rachel Schmidt examines how seminal theorists and philosophers have wrestled with the status of Cervantes' masterpiece as an 'exemplary novel', in turn contributing to the emergence of key concepts within genre theory. Schmidt's discussion covers the views of well-known thinkers such as Friedrich Schlegel, José Ortega y Gasset, and Mikhail Bakhtin, but also the pivotal contributions of philosophers such as Hermann Cohen and Miguel de Unamuno. These theorists' examinations of Cervantes's fictional knight errant character point to an ever-shifting boundary between the real and the virtual. Drawing from both intellectual and literary history, Forms of Modernity richly explores the development of the categories and theories that we use today to analyze and understand novels.

Download or read book Phenomenology of Life and the Human Creative Condition written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997-12-31 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-individualization has been interpreted as the process in which the all-embracing Self unfolds into an infinite variety of different individ uals, plants, animals and men. A comparison of the different ways in which the Self manifests itself in the biological and psychological devel opmental processes, or in a visionary image of the undivided Self, reveals the same basic structure of expression. The Self, the one, is represented by a circular domain, and comprises a basic inner duality, the two, creating a paradox of conflicting opposites. In the undivided Self the two give rise to a trinity in which, however, a quatemity is hidden. The latter expresses itself in this world as the four basic forces, the four Elements or the four main archetypes, specifying the possibilities or development in space and time. Self-individualization starts with the first appearance of a primary structure of an individual sub-Self. This is the fifth basic force, the fifth Element. Further development is character ized by four generative principles: 1st, the principle of wholeness: connection and integration (being oriented to remaining whole or restoring wholeness); 2nd, the principle of complementarity and com pensation (a periodic shift between opposing influences); 3rd, the enstructuring principle (causing the relative stability of the spatial appear ance of the manifest structure), and 4th, the principle of gesture (resulting in a gradual stepwise development of that structure into a full-grown individual).
Download or read book What is Knowledge written by Jose Ortega y Gasset and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Appearing in English for the first time, this book comprises two of Ortega's most important works, ¿Qué es conocimiento? and the essay "Ideas y creencias." This is Ortega's attempt to systematically present the foundations of his metaphysics of human life and, on that basis, to provide a radical philosophical account of knowledge. In so doing, he criticizes idealism and overcomes it. Accordingly, this book goes well beyond a treatise on epistemology; in fact, as understood in modern philosophy, this discipline and its questions are shown to be derivative and, in that sense, they are transcended here by Ortega's systematic effort. Written during the time of his maturity, these works are representative of his fruitful and radical period. Both ¿Qué es conocimiento? and "Ideas y creencias" are equally decisive not only for the understanding and radical completion of Ortega's work, but also for their relevance to the work of continental philosophers during the same period and for years to come (e.g., Husserl, Jaspers, Heidegger, Sartre, and others).
Download or read book Libro de Margery Kempe written by Margery Kempe and published by Universitat de València. This book was released on 2015-05-16 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El «Libro de Margery Kempe» constitueix la primera autobiografia escrita en llengua anglesa i, així mateix, es conta entre els exemples més notables de la literatura mística anglosaxona medieval. Concebut amb una finalitat eminentment didàctica, és l'única font per a reconstruir la controvertida vida d'una figura insòlita, d'una dama burgesa, muller, mare, dona de negocis, pelegrina i visionària. Aquestes memòries, dictades per ella mateixa al final de la seua vida, tracen un extraordinari retrat d'una dona de caràcter indoblegable, immersa en una experiència mística que la va portar a enfrontar-se a la religiositat dominant i a les jerarquies eclesiàstiques, sempre en el tall de l'acusació d?heretgia. El llibre constitueix un ampli i bigarrat retaule de la societat i la vida quotidiana en una època de grans transformacions com van ser els segles XIV i XV.
