Описание: The enigmatic relation between religion and science still presents a challenge to European societies and to ideas about what it means to be ‘modern.’ This book argues that European secularism, rather than pushing back religious truth claims, in fact has been religiously productive itself. The institutional establishment of new disciplines in the nineteenth century, such as religious studies, anthropology, psychology, classical studies, and the study of various religious traditions, led to a professionalization of knowledge about religion that in turn attributed new meanings to religion. This attribution of meaning resulted in the emergence of new religious identities and practices. In a dynamic that is closely linked to this discursive change, the natural sciences adopted religious and metaphysical claims and integrated them in their framework of meaning, resulting in a special form of scientific religiosity that has gained much influence in the twentieth century. Applying methods that come from historical discourse analysis, the book demonstrates that religious semantics have been reconfigured in the secular sciences. Ultimately, the scientification of religion perpetuated religious truth claims under conditions of secularism.

Название: Biological Time, Historical Time: Transfers and Transformations in 19th Century Literature ISBN: 9004381376 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004381377 Издательство: Brill Цена: 183300.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Biological Time, Historical Time presents a new approach to 19th century thought and literature: by focussing on the subject of time, it offers a new perspective on the exchanges between French and German literary texts on the one hand and scientific disciplines on the other. Hence, the rivalling influences of the historical sciences and of the life sciences on literary texts are explored, texts from various scientific domains – medicine, natural history, biology, history, and multiple forms of vulgarisation – are investigated. Literary texts are analysed in their participation in and transformation of the scientific imagination. Special attention is accorded to the temporal dimension: this allows for an innovative account of key concepts of 19th century culture.
Автор: Christian H. Krijnen Название: Metaphysics of Freedom? Kant`s Concept of Cosmological Freedom in Historical and Systematic Perspective ISBN: 9004383778 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004383777 Издательство: Brill Цена: 215170.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: Freedom is one of the main issues of modern philosophy and Kant’s philosophy of freedom a major source for comprehending it. Whereas in contemporary debates Kant’s concept of practical freedom is addressed frequently, the cosmological foundation of it is much less discussed and even mostly taken for granted. In Metaphysics of Freedom?, by contrast, Kant’s concept of cosmological freedom is scrutinized both in a historical and a systematic perspective. As a result, a deeper and broader understanding of Kant’s conception of freedom, its presuppositions, and problems emerges.

Автор: Maureen A. Ramsden Название: Crossing Borders: The Interrelation of Fact and Fiction in Historical Works, Travel Tales, Autobiography and Reportage ISBN: 3034319959 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783034319959 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 70570.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: In the twentieth century, the boundaries between different literary genres started to be questioned, raising a discussion about the various narrative modes of factual and fictional discourses. Moving on from the limited traditional studies of genre definitions, this book argues that the borders between these two types of discourse depend on complex issues of epistemology, literary traditions and social and political constraints. This study attempts a systematic and specific analysis of how literary works, and in particular documentary ones, where the borders are more difficult to define, can be classified as factual or fictional. The book deals with several areas of discourse, including history, travel tales, autobiography and reportage, and opens up perspectives on the very different ways in which documentary works make use of the inescapable presence of both factual and fictional elements.

As one of the premier historical thinkers of his generation, J rn R sen has made enormous contributions to the methods and theoretical framework of history as it is practiced today. In Evidence and Meaning, R sen surveys the seismic changes that have shaped the historical profession over the last half-century, while offering a clear, economical account of his theory of history. To traditional historiography R sen brings theoretical insights from philosophy, narrative theory, cultural studies, and the social sciences, developing an intricate but robust model of "historical thinking" as both a cognitive discipline and a cultural practice--one that is susceptible neither to na ve empiricism nor radical relativism.
Автор: Branco Daniel Название: Emil Cioran: The Criticism of the Idea of Historical Progress ISBN: 0648499626 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780648499626 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 24460.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
Emil Cioran is known for both the complexity of his views on philosophy and his exquisite literary style. Perched on the boundary of literature and philosophy, Cioran deftly commands both subjects - at times with a spartan, haunting beauty - and on other occasions with stinging criticism.
Daniel Branco provides a scintillating and insightful explanation of one of Cioran's most complicated themes - the connection between time, utopia, and historical progress. Branco's meticulous study of Cioran not only examines his published works, but also explores Cioran's personal life and how it influenced his writing, along with Cioran's affliction with severe insomnia, a factor which also bestowed him with lucidity.
These experiences not only had a profound experience on Cioran, they also had an impact on his perception of both time and the concept of utopia. This in turn, demonstrated to Cioran that the notion of modern progress is false, and that the essential essence of humanity does not change throughout the passage of various epochs and civilizations. This, accompanied by the complexity of time and emptiness, also demonstrated to Cioran that modern philosophy itself cannot progress.
Dr. Daniel Branco holds a Licentiate Degree in Philosophy from UECE, a Bachelor of Philosophy from UECE, a Bachelor of Theology from FATIN, and completed Specialization in the History of Brazil by INTA. He also holds a Master's Degree in Philosophy from UFC and a Doctorate in Philosophy from UFC. He is the author of several articles published in academic journals.

Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz (1646-1716) has a prominent worldwide place in the history of scientific thought, from mathematics, logic, and physics to astronomy and engineering. In 2016, both his birth and death have been commemorated. Given the influence by Leibniz on Western sciences and philosophies and his polyhedric scientific activities, this special book chooses to focus on Leibniz's scientific works. In particular, we explore Leibniz's intellectual matrix and heritage within interdisciplinary fields, and present contributions from leading experts on the subject. The book offers much-needed insights into the subject from scientific, historical, philosophical and nature of science perspectives. It also provides authoritative introductions to scholarly contributions, which are often dispersed in journals and books not easily accessible to every reader. Therefore, this volume also contains excellent chapters on topics which, generally speaking, have their place in any rounded science, history or philosophy topic. It provides an absorbing and significant read for historians, philosophers and scientists alike.
