Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ground Work: Before the War follows Robert Duncan's last collection of poetry by just over fifteen years. The silence was intentional, to permit the book to come into its own, at its own appointed time, and to allow new themes in his worldview to advance. ... Duncan now turns directly to the political issues of our sad history: love, death, and the mask worn by war and 'development,' behind which industrial-military power hides its contempt for nature and indeed all living beings."--Page [4] of cover.

Book Kant s Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals

Download or read book Kant s Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals written by Jens Timmermann and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-06-21 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals is Kant's central contribution to moral philosophy, and has inspired controversy ever since it was first published in 1785. Kant champions the insights of 'common human understanding' against what he sees as the dangerous perversions of ethical theory. Morality is revealed to be a matter of human autonomy: Kant locates the source of the 'categorical imperative' within each and every human will. However, he also portrays everyday morality in a way that many readers find difficult to accept. The Groundwork is a short book, but its argument is dense, intricate and at times treacherous. This commentary explains Kant's arguments paragraph by paragraph, and also contains an introduction, a synopsis of the argument, six short interpretative essays on key topics of the Groundwork, and a glossary of key terms. It will be an indispensable tool for anyone wishing to study the Groundwork in detail.

  • ISBN : 0271093536
  • Pages : 331 pages

Download or read book Ground Work written by Hillary Eklund and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2017-03-21 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does soil, as an ecological element, shape culture? With the sixteenth-century shift in England from an agrarian economy to a trade economy, what changes do we see in representations of soil as reflected in the language and stories during that time? This collection brings focused scholarly attention to conceptions of soil in the early modern period, both as a symbol and as a feature of the physical world, aiming to correct faulty assumptions that cloud our understanding of early modern ecological thought: that natural resources were then poorly understood and recklessly managed, and that cultural practices developed in an adversarial relationship with natural processes. Moreover, these essays elucidate the links between humans and the lands they inhabit, both then and now.

  • Author : David Young Kim
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2022-10-18
  • ISBN : 0691231176
  • Pages : 264 pages

Download or read book Groundwork written by David Young Kim and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-10-18 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illuminating look at a fundamental yet understudied aspect of Italian Renaissance painting The Italian Renaissance picture is renowned for its depiction of the human figure, from the dramatic foreshortening of the body to create depth to the subtle blending of tones and colors to achieve greater naturalism. Yet these techniques rely on a powerful compositional element that often goes overlooked. Groundwork provides the first in-depth examination of the complex relationship between figure and ground in Renaissance painting. “Ground” can refer to the preparation of a work’s surface, the fictive floor or plane, or the background on which figuration occurs. In laying the material foundation, artists perform groundwork, opening the ground as a zone that can precede, penetrate, or fracture the figure. David Young Kim looks at the work of Gentile da Fabriano, Giovanni Bellini, Giovanni Battista Moroni, and Caravaggio, reconstructing each painter’s methods to demonstrate the intricacies involved in laying ground layers whose translucency and polychromy permeate the surface. He charts significant transitions from gold ground painting in the Trecento to the darkened grounds in Baroque tenebrism, and offers close readings of period texts to shed new light on the significance of ground forms such as rock face, wall, and cave. This beautifully illustrated book reconceives the Renaissance picture, revealing the passion and mystery of groundwork and discovering figuration beyond the human figure.
