Download or read book Witcraft written by Jonathan Rée and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 761 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ambitious new history of philosophy in English that broadens the canon to include many lesser-known figures Ludwig Wittgenstein once wrote that “philosophy should be written like poetry.” But philosophy has often been presented more prosaically as a long trudge through canonical authors and great works. But what, Jonathan Rée asks, if we instead saw the history of philosophy as a haphazard series of unmapped forest paths, a mass of individual stories showing endurance, inventiveness, bewilderment, anxiety, impatience, and good humor? Here, Jonathan Rée brilliantly retells this history, covering such figures as Descartes, Locke, Kant, Hegel, Marx, Nietzsche, Mill, James, Frege, Wittgenstein, and Sartre. But he also includes authors not usually associated with philosophy, such as William Hazlitt, George Eliot, Darwin, and W. H. Auden. Above all, he uncovers dozens of unremembered figures—puritans, revolutionaries, pantheists, feminists, nihilists, socialists, and scientists—who were passionate and active readers of philosophy, and often authors themselves. Breaking away from high-altitude narratives, he shows how philosophy finds its way into ordinary lives, enriching and transforming them in unexpected ways.
Download or read book The Frontiers of the Other written by Gaetano Chiurazzi and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2013 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the problem of translation has received renewed attention, but it has been mostly approached from a linguistic or ontological perspective. This book focuses on another aspect, i.e. the political and ethical implications of translation. Engaged in a debate, which encompasses various philosophers - such as Schleiermacher, Benjamin, Ortega y Gasset, Quine, Gadamer, Derrida, and Ricur - the book's contributions show that translation can be considered in an ambivalent way (which has a great ethical and political significance) as an attempt to bring the other back to one's own world or, vice versa, as an attempt to open up one's own world and to experience different cultures. Translation is in fact, inevitably, an experience of alterity. (Series: Philosophy - Language - Literature / Philosophie - Sprache - Literatur - Vol. 4)
Download or read book Ludwig Wittgenstein written by Mathieu Marion and published by Presses Universitaires de France - PUF. This book was released on 2004 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ludwig Wittgenstein est, avec Gottlob Frege et Bertrand Russell, l'un des fondateurs de la philosophie analytique. Le Tractatus logico-philosophicus est le seul ouvrage qu'il publia de son vivant, il s'agit en quelque sorte du point de départ de sa philosophie. Cependant, il en rejeta rapidement la plupart des thèses et, pour cette raison, cette œuvre est trop souvent ignorée ou simplement jugée à l'aune de sa soi-disant seconde philosophie. Pourtant, le Tractatus logico-philosophicus a ses mérites, puisque certaines thèses, notamment celles sur les mathématiques et celles sur la nature de la philosophie, ou encore l'importante distinction entre ce qui se dit et ce qui se montre, ne furent pas abandonnées, tandis que d'autres, en particulier la définition de la tautologie, furent adoptées de manière définitive en logique mathématique. Le Tractatus logico-philosophicus exerça en outre une influence fondamentale sur Russell, Ramsey et Carnap. Par ailleurs, il importe de comprendre cette première philosophie dans ses propres termes avant d'entreprendre la lecture des écrits postérieurs. On trouvera donc dans cet essai une présentation de l'ensemble des sujets abordés dans ce livre, non pas sous l'angle de la seconde philosophie mais à partir de son contexte, c'est-à-dire principalement des travaux de Frege et de Russell. Sont traitées, les questions d'ontologie, d'analyse du langage, de logique mathématique et d'éthique, ainsi que celle du statut de la métaphysique.
Download or read book Religion Dans L histoire written by Michel Despland and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 1992-03-03 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the concept of “religion” in Western tradition has intrigued scholars for years. This important collection of eighteen essays brings further light to the ongoing debate. Three of the invited participants, W.C. Smith, M. Despland and E. Feil, has each previously written impressive books treating this subject; the last two acknowledged the impact and continuing influence of Smith’s work, The Meaning and End of Religion. An introduction and a recapitulation of Smith’s contribution as a scholar set the stage for a retrospective look at the published literature. Contributors then examine the transformation of words (the classical religio to the modern religion), particularities of religion in nineteenth-century France, Troeltsch’s concept of religion, the study of religion from an Asian point of view and the categorization of “World Religions.” The concluding essays elaborate contemporary anthropological, cross-disciplinary, semiological, deconstructive and psychoanalytical methodological approaches to the concept and study of “religion.” Exploring critically different aspects of the concept and study of religion, these provocative essays typically reflect the methodological pluralism currently existing in the field of Religious Studies. Of interest to scholars and students alike, this collection also contains a complete bibliography of W.C. Smith’s publications.

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 Aphorism in the Francophone Novel of the Twentieth Century written by Mark Bell and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1997-03-27 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aphorism in the Francophone Novel of the Twentieth Century includes critical readings of Terre des hommes by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Alexandre Chenevert by Gabrielle Roy, Gouverneurs de la rosée by Jacques Roumain, Pluie et vent sur Télumée miracle by Simone Schwarz-Bart, La route des Flandres by Claude Simon, Présence de la mort by C.F. Ramuz, and Neige noire by Hubert Aquin. Bell addresses the problems inherent in the term aphorism, the narrative and discourse function of aphorism within the genre of the novel, the interrelation between the structure of aphorism and the epistemological and hermeneutical functions this sub-genre may perform as a component part of the narrative fabric, the "national" character of aphoristics, and the problems that arise from "anthologizing" a novel's aphorisms. The importance of aphoristic formulation in the French literary tradition and its undeniable presence in the modern novel make this a particularly significant and fruitful study.
Download or read book Wittgenstein en confrontation written by Ludovic Soutif and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2011 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wittgenstein est tenu aujourd'hui en France pour un représentant majeur de la tradition analytique. Pourtant la confrontation de ses idées et de son (ses) mode(s) d'approche des problèmes philosophiques avec ceux d'auteurs contemporains ou récents sur les mêmes sujets occupe encore une place limitée au sein des études qui lui sont consacrées. Le présent volume se donne pour but de contribuer au développement de ce travail de mise en discussion sans doute encore trop délaissé, et par là-même, de convaincre son lecteur de l'intérêt qu'il y a à s'engager dans cette voie. Il est animé par la conviction que le caractère sui generis des conceptions de Wittgenstein et de sa pratique de la philosophie ne constitue pas un obstacle définitif au projet d'exposer sa pensée aux rigueurs d'un dialogue avec d'autres pensées, et pour celles-ci, d'accepter de se mesurer à l'apport majeur du penseur viennois aux débats philosophiques actuels.
