Описание:

Broad Sympathies in a Narrow World: The Legacy of W.E.B. Du Bois by Dr. Sandra Staton-Taiwo is a collection of poetic reflections on the public and private life of an American intellectual giant. For more than half of the 20th Century, Dr. W.E.B. Du Bois (1868 - 1963) was a major voice in every significant debate concerning political policies and strategies impacting the lives of African Americans and other people of color. As the first African American to earn a Ph.D. at Harvard, and then a co-founder of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and editor of its journal, The Crisis, Du Bois's life's work as a scholar, writer, and political spokesperson rendered him the most prestigious African American leader in the United States. He also enjoyed international acclaim for his leading role in the movements for independence of African nations and Pan-African unity.

Though DuBois is recognized as the founder of the discipline of sociology, his scholarship spanned multiple arenas of research and discourse, including history, literary criticism, philosophy, and political science. DuBois was also a novelist and a poet. For his anti-war activism and his powerful protests as a public intellectual against racial inequities in the United States, he was harassed by the U.S. government, and ultimately left this country to live in exile in Ghana, West Africa, invited there by President Kwame Nkrumah.

Staton-Taiwo's poems celebrate the greatness of Dubois's political vision and engagement, while intuiting the unhappy lives of the women who lived in his shadow. Several poems assess 21st century race relations in the U.S. in the light of DuBois's 20th century insights. Allusions to well-known themes and iconic lines from DuBois's writings weave a unifying thread throughout the collection. Readers will be challenged and delighted by Staton-Taiwo's rich, sophisticated perspectives and artistry.

Описание: The Critical theory was elaborated by a group of professors from the Institute for Social Research, created during the 1920s in the University of Frankfurt in Germany. The Critical theory is supported on the Marxist philosophical base, and it was Marx who in 1843 defined it as the self-clarification to be gained by the present time of its struggles and desires. Critical theory is known for its propensity for criticism, a tradition it arguably owes to predecessors, like Marx and Kant. Social theory represents an expanded set of criticism with the advent of more recent discourses, such as postmodernism and cultural studies. Together, CST is an intellectual form that puts criticism at the centre of its knowledge production. Through criticism, CST pushes ideas and frameworks to their limits, usually by highlighting their contradictions. Over the years the goals and tenets of critical theory have been adopted by many social scientists and philosophers who have come after the Frankfurt School. We can recognise critical theory today in many feminist theories and feminist approaches to conducting social science, in critical race theory, cultural theory, in gender and queer theory, and in media theory and media studies. This book reflects on the Critical theory, stemming from the most important philosophical concepts and the modifications it has endured over time. It examines the historical development of theory, research and practice and discusses the gap between the triad. This emphasises on the contextual analysis of the phenomena and it is a self-critique to prevent dogmatisms and totalitarianisms. It postulates that in order to establish a truth, we must consider the historical conditions within which said truth emerges. Jurgen Habermas, with his Theory of Communicative Action, reorients the original postulates of the Critical theory, making it more coherent from the social point of view, through the Guiding Interests of Knowledge. This book introduces educational practitioners, students, and scholars to the people, concepts, questions, and concerns that make up the field of critical social theory.
