Описание: Have you ever grown tired of yourself, fed up with the narrative of your life, despairing of hopeful change? Me too. But this book is not a self-help book. Its intricate interweaving of neuroscience and the philosophy of mind takes us back to fundamental questions: is there such a thing as a continuous self, or a reliable narrative of a life? Is there such a thing as consciousness apart from biology? Is the human brain the source of conscious awareness or the evolved site of an awareness that inheres in the nature of general relativity? This book argues that consciousness on earth is an ancient phenomenon, dating back at least 500 million years, and that human self-awareness is a relatively recent gremlin on the scene. Arguing from the vantage point of one particular moment in Edmund Husserl's "the residuum of consciousness after the annihilation of the world", this book invites the reader to leave both self-consciousness and the fear of death behind and to look at how the relative phenomenon of the brain is a harbinger of something much greater.

Описание: In 1879, Canon Thomas Frederick Simmons edited the late medieval poem now known as The Lay Folks' Mass Book creating what remains the standard edition of the text. This volume shows how Simmons' interest in the text was related profoundly to contemporary debates about worship in the Church of England, and how he used his medievalist researches as the basis for the most important attempt at Prayer Book revision between the Reformation and the twentieth century.

Описание: World War II was the defining event of the twentieth century. For everyone it was a time of confusion, fear, destruction, and death on a scale never before seen. Much has been written of the generals, campaigns, and battles of the war, but it was young, ordinary American kids who held our freedom in their hands as they fought for liberty across the globe. Forgotten Heroes of World War II offers a personal understanding of what was demanded of these young heroes through the stories of rank-and-file individuals who served in the navy, marines, army, air corps, and merchant marine in all theaters of the war. Their tales are told without pretense or apology. At the time, each thought himself no different from those around him, for they were all young, scared, and miserable. They were the ordinary, the extraordinary--the forgotten.

Obscenity and Disruption in the Poetry of Dylan Krieger is the first full-length study of the radical poetry of Baton Rouge-based poet Dylan Krieger. Wickedly smart, iconoclastic, daring in their critiques of religion and contemporary culture, Krieger’s poems rank with Allen Ginsberg’s and Adrienne Rich’s as the most provocative and avant-garde of any recent generation. With its debt to third-wave feminism and the "Gurlesque," Krieger’s work nevertheless moves outward and backward across the landmines of sexual precocity and religious fundamentalism and across the entire western project of epistemology as Krieger came to understand it at the University of Notre Dame. Though this book necessarily stays close to Krieger’s specific poems, it follows her lead in stretching her cultural, sexual, and religious furies to their apotheosis in a manifesto of liberation.

Описание: What if the primary relationship in a poet`s oeuvre is actually between the first and last text, with those two texts sharing a compelling private language? This book examines both the evidence of some new phenomenon and a limit or unsolved problem that finds its resolution only in a specific conversation with the final text.
