Download or read book Rhapsody For The Theatre written by Alain Badiou and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2013-12-17 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Alain Badiou, theatre—unlike cinema—is the place for the staging of a truly emancipatory collective subject. In this sense theatre is, of all the arts, the one strictly homologous to politics: both theatre and politics depend on a limited set of texts or statements, collectively enacted by a group of actors or militants, which put a limit on the excessive power of the state. This explains why the history of theatre has always been inseparable from a history of state repression and censorship. This definitive collection includes not only Badiou’s pamphlet Rhapsody for the Theatre but also essays on Jean-Paul Sartre, on the political destiny of contemporary theatre, and on Badiou’s own work as a playwright, as author of the Ahmed Tetralogy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “U-N-I-Verse” is a platform for all “seekers” to share wisdom with the world. It is a series where writers from all religions, schools of thought and walks of life come together to discuss differences and similarities in order to shed light on and build upon common points of interest that may lead to Universal balance and harmony. This series is intended to unify the human family and realign all with the cosmic symphony that man’s ego and pride has disrupted. In Volume five of the U-N-I-VERSE series, author Salim Shabazz (formerly Saleem Little) invites Authors Dane Brown, George Hopkins, Shavar L. Thompson, Lorenzo Johnson and poet Eza to share their thoughts, poems, and social examinations in a collective endeavor to raise consciousness and awareness while preserving the art form of poetry and expanding the horizons of literature. It is said that too often only the paper listens. Too often great ideas, thoughts, stories, etc. remain confined in the mind of their creator. Be it Writer's block, a writer's fear, or a person's unawareness of their writing potential, stories and ideas too often never reach the consciousness of the masses. Writer's Block is one author's first step in a quest to inspire more to inspire by the pen.

Download or read book Rationalizing Vern nfteln written by Martin Sticker and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-01-20 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kant was a keen psychological observer and theorist of the forms, mechanisms and sources of self-deception. In this Element, the author discusses the role of rationalizing/Vernünfteln for Kant's moral psychology, normative ethics and philosophical methodology. By drawing on the full breadth of examples of rationalizing Kant discusses, the author shows how rationalizing can extend to general features of morality and corrupt rational agents thoroughly (albeit not completely and not irreversibly). Furthermore, the author explains the often-overlooked roles common human reason, empirical practical reason and even pure practical reason play for rationalizing. Kant is aware that rationality is a double-edged sword; reason is the source of morality and of our dignity, but it also enables us to seemingly justify moral transgressions to ourselves, and it creates an interest in this justification in the first place. Finally, this Element discusses whether Kant's ethical theory itself can be criticised as a product of rationalizing.

Book excerpt: We may say that honesty is the best policy, but history—to say nothing of business, politics, and the media—suggests otherwise. In this infinitely citable book, the author of two bestselling treasuries of scandal recounts some of the greatest deceptions of all time. With what forged document did the Vatican lay claim to much of Europe? Who wrote Hitler’s diaries? Why do millions still believe the vague doggerel that Nostradamus passed off as prophecy? Organizing his material by theme (con artists, the press, military trickery, scientific fraud, imposters, great escapes, and more), Michael Farquhar takes in everything from the hoodwinking of Hitler to Vincent “the Chin” Gigante’s thirty-year crazy act. A Treasury of Deception is a zestful, gossipy exposé—and celebration—of mendacity. A Treasury of Deception also includes: Ten tricksters from scripture Ten great liars in literature Ten egregious examples of modern American doublespeak Ten classic deceptions from Greek mythology

Download or read book Animal Ethics and Theology written by Daniel Miller and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-03-01 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Daniel K. Miller articulates a new vision of human and animal relationships based on the foundational love ethic within Christianity. Framed around Jesus’ parable of the Good Samaritan, Animal Ethics and Theology thoughtfully examines the shortcomings of utilitarian and rights-based approaches to animal ethics. By considering the question of animals within the Christian concept of neighbourly love, Miller provides an alternative narrative for understanding the complex relationships that humans have with other animals. This book addresses significant theological questions such as: Does being created in the image of God present a meaningful distinction between humans and other animals? What does it mean for humans to have dominion (Gen. 1:28) over animals? Is meat eating a moral problem for Christians? In addition to drawing out the significance of Christian theology for field of animal ethics this book also engages environmental and feminist ethics. Miller brings a theological perspective to such questions as: Should care for animals be distinguished from care for the environment, and what role should human emotions play in our ethical dealings with other animals? As the title suggests, this book provides fresh insight into the theological significance of human relationships with other animals.
