Requiem for the Ego recounts Freud's last great attempt to 'save' the autonomy of the ego, which drew philosophical criticism from the most prominent philosophers of the period—Adorno, Heidegger, and Wittgenstein. Despite their divergent orientations, each contested the ego's capacity to represent mental states through word and symbol to an agent surveying its own cognizance. By discarding the subject-object divide as a model of the mind, they dethroned Freud's depiction of the ego as a conceit of a misleading self-consciousness and a faulty metaphysics. Freud's inquisitors, while employing divergent arguments, found unacknowledged consensus in identifying the core philosophical challenges of defining agency and describing subjectivity. In Requiem, Tauber uniquely synthesizes these philosophical attacks against psychoanalysis and, more generally, provides a kaleidoscopic portrait of the major developments in mid-20th century philosophy that prepared the conceptual grounding for postmodernism.
Автор: Ben Thomas Название: Edgar Wind and Modern Art: In Defence of Marginal Anarchy ISBN: 1350284270 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350284272 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 31670.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book presents the first comprehensive study of the philosopher and art historian Edgar Wind’s critique of modern art. The first student of Erwin Panofsky, and a close associate of Aby Warburg, Edgar Wind was unusual among the ‘Warburgians’ for his sustained interest in modern art, together with his support for contemporary artists. This culminated in his respected and influential book Art and Anarchy (1963), which seemed like a departure from his usual scholarly work on the iconography of Renaissance art.
Based on extensive archival research and bringing to light previously unpublished lectures, Edgar Wind and Modern Art reveals the extent and seriousness of Wind’s thinking about modern art, and how it was bound up with theories about art and knowledge that he had developed during the 1920s and 30s. Wind’s ideas are placed in the context of a closely connected international cultural milieu consisting of some of the leading artists and thinkers of the twentieth century. In particular, the book discusses in detail his friendships with three significant artists: Pavel Tchelitchew, Ben Shahn and R. B. Kitaj. In the process, the existence of an alternative to the prevailing formalist approach of Alfred Barr and Clement Greenberg to modern art, based on the enduring importance of the symbol, is revealed.

Описание: This Introduction surveys the full spectrum of postmodern culture - high and low, avant-garde and popular, famous and obscure - across a range of fields, from architecture and visual art to fiction, poetry, and drama. Comprehensive and accessible, this book is indispensable for scholars, students, and general readers interested in late twentieth-century culture.
American Fiction in Transition is a study of the observer-hero narrative, a highly significant but critically neglected genre of the American novel. Through the lens of this transitional genre, the book explores the 1990s in relation to debates about the end of postmodernism, and connects the decade to other transitional periods in US literature. Novels by four major contemporary writers are examined: Philip Roth, Paul Auster, E. L. Doctorow and Jeffrey Eugenides. Each novel has a similar structure: an observer-narrator tells the story of an important person in his life who has died. But each story is equally about the struggle to tell the story, to find adequate means to narrate the transitional quality of the hero's life. In playing out this narrative struggle, each novel thereby addresses the broader problem of historical transition, a problem that marks the legacy of the postmodern era in American literature and culture.

Автор: Hicks Scott Elliot Название: The Resurrection of Thinking: Steiner`s Anthroposophy & the Postmodernism of Badiou, Deleuze, Derrida & Levinas ISBN: 1728972868 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781728972862 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 18380.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The first full-length text in any language to wrestle with the conceptual relationship between the spiritual science of Rudolf Steiner and the French Postmodern thinking of Jacques Derrida, Alain Badiou, Gilles Deleuze and Guattari, and Emmanuel Levinas. Furthermore, the book is a living investigation of new ways of deactualizing and taking the first steps in spiritualizing thinking, perception, sensation, language, and willing. It is a direction demonstration of original spiritual research and creation, inscribed and readable by Intuitive Thinking and Moral Imagination in a vibrant, breathing experiment of the weaving together and opening up of living concepts. It is a sensible and supersensible cognitive-chemical experiment carried out and followed moment by moment one step beyond subjective, transcendental, and phenomenological research. The text operates in a neutral field, which does not try to interpret or critique, but rather opens up the direct perception of the concept plane and its new moral intensive fields, and the activities and events engendered there. This text brings Anthroposophy into direct contact with the most current elements of the evolution of world-thinking, using its life and light to illuminate the fresh notions in the most up-to-date philosophical thinking. The contents include: Part I - The Flashing and Rustling in the Stillness of the Woods - The Mysteries of Movement, Thinking and Perception Chapter 1: The Eye-World Stream: The Melting and Reorientation of Sight, Light, and Sensation Chapter 2: The Dance of the Others in Moral Space: The Dynamic Respiration of the Moving and the Still in Thinking Life and in the Will Chapter 3: Empty Skull: The Moral Call of the Threshold and the New Self Chapter 4: To the North Star and Back to Earth: Living in Pure Concepts and Finding My Own Space Chapter 5: The Implosion of Conscious Events and the Motion of the World-Human Part II - The Two Faces of Warmth: The Mysteries of the Void, the Will, and the OtherChapter 6: Building New Organs of Heat lifeChapter 7: The Soul of Repetition Chapter 8: Extraction, Suction, and Negative Combustion in the Void Part III - Tongue, Tone and Fire: The Mysteries of Sound, Smell, Touch, and the Spiritualization of Language Chapter 9: The Vaporization of the Senses of Touch, Hearing, and Smell Chapter 10: Language and Warmth Chapter 11: Anxiety and Courage in the Instability of the Air Chapter 12: Culmination in the Real Meeting of the Other through Fire
