Download or read book Emmanuel Kant antes y despu s written by Jean Grondin and published by ITESO; Universidad Iberoamericana. This book was released on 2023-03-24 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Si se hiciera un listado de los pensadores que más hacen sufrir a los estudiantes de filosofía, seguramente aparecería Emmanuel Kant. Y es probable que el problema radique en que solemos acercarnos a sus escritos en ausencia de una comprensión clara de lo que él se proponía, del resorte profundo que lo hizo desarrollar sus trabajos. Jean Grondin aporta en este texto claves cruciales para esta comprensión y transmuta la tarea ingrata de leer a Kant en una aventura en la que logramos sentirnos parte de los denuedos del autor. Grondin articula magistralmente tanto la filosofía anterior a Kant como los acontecimientos y pensadores de su época con los hitos fundamentales de la evolución de su pensamiento. Los retos a los que Kant quiso responder quedan así puestos en evidencia y explican la razón y la necesidad de la concatenación de sus tesis y obras principales. Igualmente esclarecedora resulta la revisión de la filosofía posterior a Kant, gracias a la cual se corrobora que el lugar que se le ha asignado en la historia del pensamiento es más que bien merecido. Esta primera edición en español del libro de Jean Grondin Emmanuel Kant. Avant et après ofrece así una erudita, original y completa exposición de la filosofía de Kant, que esperamos resulte útil y permita gozar una de las aventuras del pensamiento más influyentes de la filosofía occidental.

Download or read book Without Criteria written by Steven Shaviro and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2012-08-17 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Deleuzian reading of Whitehead and a Whiteheadian reading of Deleuze open the possibility of a critical aesthetics of contemporary culture. In Without Criteria, Steven Shaviro proposes and explores a philosophical fantasy: imagine a world in which Alfred North Whitehead takes the place of Martin Heidegger. What if Whitehead, instead of Heidegger, had set the agenda for postmodern thought? Heidegger asks, “Why is there something, rather than nothing?” Whitehead asks, “How is it that there is always something new?” In a world where everything from popular music to DNA is being sampled and recombined, argues Shaviro, Whitehead's question is the truly urgent one. Without Criteria is Shaviro's experiment in rethinking postmodern theory, especially the theory of aesthetics, from a point of view that hearkens back to Whitehead rather than Heidegger. In working through the ideas of Whitehead and Deleuze, Shaviro also appeals to Kant, arguing that certain aspects of Kant's thought pave the way for the philosophical “constructivism” embraced by both Whitehead and Deleuze. Kant, Whitehead, and Deleuze are not commonly grouped together, but the juxtaposition of them in Without Criteria helps to shed light on a variety of issues that are of concern to contemporary art and media practices.

Download or read book An Introduction to Dialectics written by Theodor W. Adorno and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-05-23 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume comprises Adorno's first lectures specifically dedicated to the subject of the dialectic, a concept which has been key to philosophical debate since classical times. While discussing connections with Plato and Kant, Adorno concentrates on the most systematic development of the dialectic in Hegel's philosophy, and its relationship to Marx, as well as elaborating his own conception of dialectical thinking as a critical response to this tradition. Delivered in the summer semester of 1958, these lectures allow Adorno to explore and probe the significant difficulties and challenges this way of thinking posed within the cultural and intellectual context of the post-war period. In this connection he develops the thesis of a complementary relationship between positivist or functionalist approaches, particularly in the social sciences, as well as calling for the renewal of ontological and metaphysical modes of thought which attempt to transcend the abstractness of modern social experience by appeal to regressive philosophical categories. While providing an account of many central themes of Hegelian thought, he also alludes to a whole range of other philosophical, literary and artistic figures of central importance to his conception of critical theory, notably Walter Benjamin and the idea of a constellation of concepts as the model for an 'open or fractured dialectic' beyond the constraints of method and system. These lectures are seasoned with lively anecdotes and personal recollections which allow the reader to glimpse what has been described as the 'workshop' of Adorno's thought. As such, they provide an ideal entry point for all students and scholars in the humanities and social sciences who are interested in Adorno's work as well as those seeking to understand the nature of dialectical thinking.
Download or read book Cr tica de la raz n pr ctica written by Immanuel Kant and published by Editorial Verbum. This book was released on 2020-05-11 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Crítica de la razón práctica es la segunda de las tres obras llamadas «críticas» de Immanuel Kant, y fue publicada por primera vez en 1788. Trata sobre su filosofía de la moral, y continúa en la línea de la Crítica de la razón pura. Este ensayo no es sólo una extraordinaria realización filosófica; es también una de las cumbres de la humanidad, uno de los instantes en que el ser humano se ha elevado a mayor altura, mediante el claro reconocimiento y la vigorosa afirmación de la soberanía del espíritu. Tal es, en síntesis, esta gran obra kantiana, cuya influencia sobre todo el pensamiento filosófico posterior ha sido inmensa, y que planteó los problemas de la ética en un plano completamente nuevo, suscitando agudas discusiones entre formalistas y personalistas, entre idealistas y fenomenólogos.
Download or read book The Simpsons and Philosophy written by William Irwin and published by Open Court. This book was released on 2001-02-01 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unconventional and lighthearted introduction to the ideas of the major Western philosophers examines The Simpsons — TV’s favorite animated family. The authors look beyond the jokes, the crudeness, the attacks on society — and see a clever display of irony, social criticism, and philosophical thought. The writers begin with an examination of the characters. Does Homer actually display Aristotle’s virtues of character? In what way does Bart exemplify American pragmatism? The book also examines the ethics and themes of the show, and concludes with discussions of how the series reflects the work of Aristotle, Marx, Camus, Sartre, and other thinkers.
Download or read book Nobility of Spirit written by Rob Riemen and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Riemen insists that if we hope to move beyond the war on terror and create a life-affirming culture, we must address timeless but neglected questions: What is a good society? Why art? Why culture? What is the responsibility of intellectuals? Why anti-Americanism? Why nihilism? Why the cult of death of fundamentalists? In a series of three essays, the author identifies nobility of spirit in the life and work of Baruch Spinoza and of Thomas Mann; explores the quest for the good society in our own time; and addresses the pursuit of truth and freedom that engaged figures as disparate as Socrates and Leone Ginzburg, a Jewish Italian intellectual murdered by Nazis."--BOOK JACKET.
