Download or read book Crossfire written by Roberta Johnson and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The marriage of philosophy and fiction in the first third of Spain's twentieth century was a fertile one. It produced some truly notable offspring—novels that cross genre boundaries to find innovative forms, and treatises that fuse literature and philosophy in new ways. In her illuminating interdisciplinary study of Spanish fiction of the "Silver Age," Roberta Johnson places this important body of Spanish literature in context through a synthesis of social, literary, and philosophical history. Her examination of the work of Miguel de Unamuno, Pio Baroja, Azorin, Ramon Perez de Ayala, Juan Ramon Jimenez, Gabriel Miro, Pedro Salinas, Rosa Chacel, and Benjamin Jarnes brings to light philosophical frictions and debates and opens new interpersonal and intertextual perspectives on many of the period's most canonical novels. Johnson reformulates the traditional discussion of generations and "isms" by viewing the period as an intergenerational complex in which writers with similar philosophical and personal interests constituted dynamic groupings that interacted and constantly defined and redefined one another. Current narratological theories, including those of Todorov, Genette, Bakhtin, and Martinez Bonati, assist in teasing out the intertextual maneuvers and philosophical conflicts embedded in the novels of the period, while the sociological and biographical material bridges the philosophical and literary analyses. The result, solidly grounded in original archival research, is a convincingly complete picture of Spain's intellectual world in the first thirty years of this century. Crossfire should revolutionize thinking about the Generation of '98 and the Generation of '14 by identifying the heterogeneous philosophical sources of each and the writers' reactions to them in fiction.

Download or read book Animal of realities written by Xosé Gabriel Vázquez Fernández and published by Letrame Grupo Editorial. This book was released on 2019-07-29 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our definition as rational animals has expired, since we now know that other species also have that characteristic. Hence the inquiry in this regard and its corresponding result, which are addressed in this book and whose conclusion is that evolution itself has endowed us with something specific: our ability to devise, based on which all and only sapiens live an external reality, in relation to the environment, and an internal reality, based on our personal worldview, and which we also symbolize, especially through language and other cultural expressions. That is why our closest definition corresponds to that of Animal of realities. To facilitate both the exposure and understanding of this proposal, it is summarized in a File or Identity Card that informs about our origin, nature, essence and spirit; also described by a triple metaphor: "The Democritus Effect, to demonstrate the capacity for ideation of homo sapiens. "The Marseillaise Effect, to illustrate how that capacity is transformed into culture. "And the Ashoka Effect, so that we can direct this capacity towards companies of a social nature. In summary, this book deals with our identity essence, raison d'être and "universal passport", based on our nature and evolutionary specification. Metaphorically, it can also be said that it contains more information and applications than any device, and that it is easily activated: through interest. If you want to know why and for what we are here and, ultimately, what is our identity and our fit into this Universe, both individually and collectively

Book Amor Amicitiae

Download or read book Amor Amicitiae written by J. J. McEvoy and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 2004 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume honors the Rev. Professor James McEvoy on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday. The theory of friendship, which has been one of McEvoy's major fields of research and publication, used to be at the heart of the philosophical project, and indissociable from it. For Socrates, philosophy was possible only as the pursuit of wisdom, virtue, and beauty in a community of friends engaged in an "erotic" quest for the good. The present volume wants to make a contribution to the recovery of the friendship theme in its central importance to philosophy. It contains eighteen contributions by colleagues and pupils of Professor McEvoy from three different continents, who approach the topics of friendship, love, and charity from a variety of different angles. Several contributions are devoted to the theory of friendship in ancient and medieval thought, including its Christian appropriation. Others analyze friendship in modern and contemporary philosophy, while two contributors introduce cross-cultural perspectives (Hinduism and traditional African thought). This volume will help to throw into higher relief the importance of the philosophy of friendship, as well as stimulating further discussion on this intriguing topic.

Book Si Dios se revela Dios al Hombre      C  mo lo hace

Download or read book Si Dios se revela Dios al Hombre C mo lo hace written by Reynaldo Pareja and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Una de las preguntas fundamentales que miles de millones de hombres se han hecho a lo largo de la historia de la Humanidad es: Si Dios existe, quien es El, como se le puede conocer, como se lo puede imaginar, como se le puede hablar? Es Dios una categoria mental mas de las tantas que creamos y por lo tanto es producto de nuestra imaginacion, o ese Dios existe realmente y se ha comunicado con nosotros de alguna manera verificable, objetiva y nos ha revelado algo de Quien es El? Y a estos interrogantes se le anade la inseparable duda de si lo que afirmarnos de Dios es realmente lo que El ES. Este interrogante ha sido motivo de innumerables confrontaciones entre los que afirman que si se ha dado dicha comunicacion y los que afirman que ese Dios no nos ha hablado nunca y que por lo tanto es producto de nuestra imaginacion, de nuestro deseo de sentirnos protegidos, de sentirnos cobijados, de sentirnos especiales cuando nos damos cuenta que somos varios billones de humanos viviendo en este punto azul, la Tierra, suspendida en el firmamento compartiendo el espacio con miles y miles de estrellas de nuestra galaxia y esta, a su vez, acompanada por miles de otras galaxias ejecutando el baile cosmico de nuestro universo. Es, pues, necesario hacer una revision historico-critica y de fondo para averiguar si existe o se ha dado la posibilidad de una comunicacion entre este Ser-Dios y nosotros, la Humanidad. Y si ha ocurrido, de que manera se ha hecho dicha comunicacion? Y si se ha dado, que nos ha dicho Dios de Si mismo que nos sirva para hacernos una imagen comprensible de Quien es El, de cual es su intima Esencia?

Muestra como solamente el hombre posee una capacidad de asombro que le caracteriza y responde a su naturaleza racional. Esto permite que sea capaz de interrogarse y dar respuesta del el entorno en que vive (el universo), y también sobre quién y cómo es él mismo. Es un ser que posee también conciencia de ser persona, de actuar con libertad y comprometerse, de señalarse fines propios individuales y comunitarios, así como de sujetarse o transgredir leyes de orden natural y de carácter civil y morales o éticas. Estos temas han inquietado a muchos hombres y dado respuestas muy variadas, algunas veces contrapuestas y otras veces complementarias, unas equivocadas y otras verdaderas... Con todo, aún queda mucho por investigar y decir.
