Автор: Andrew Gibson Название: Misanthropy: The Critique of Humanity ISBN: 1474293174 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781474293174 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 27450.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: This book is the first major study of the theme of misanthropy, its history, arguments both for and against it, and its significance for us today. Misanthropy is not strictly a philosophy. It is an inconsistent thought, and so has often been mocked. But from Timon of Athens to Motorhead it has had a very long life, vast historical purchase and is seemingly indomitable and unignorable. Human beings have always nursed a profound distrust of who and what they are. This book does not seek to rationalize that distrust, but asks how far misanthropy might have a reason on its side, if a confused reason. There are obvious arguments against misanthropy. It is often born of a hatred of physical being. It can be historically explained. It particularly appears in undemocratic cultures. But what of the misanthropy of terminally defeated and disempowered peoples? Or born of progressivisms? Or the misanthropy that quarrels with specious or easy positivities (from Pelagius to Leibniz to the corporate cheer of contemporary `total capital`)? From the Greek Cynics to Roman satire, St Augustine to Jacobean drama, the misanthropy of the French Ancien Regime to Swift, Smollett and Johnson, Hobbes, Schopenhauer and Rousseau, from the Irish and American misanthropic traditions to modern women`s misanthropy, the book explores such questions. It ends with a debate about contemporary culture that ranges from the `dark radicalisms`, queer misanthropy, posthumanism and eco-misanthropy to Houellebecq, punk rock and gangsta rap.

Автор: Andrew Gibson Название: Modernity and the Political Fix ISBN: 1350212547 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350212541 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 34840.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
From their decisive emergence in the late eighteenth century, modernity and modern politics were long haunted by irony and paradox. Ours, however, is the age of the implosion of modernity. Modernity has degenerated into self-parody. The polarities that an ironic grasp of it could potentially always hold in tension are finally collapsing into each other.
In Modernity and the Political Fix, Andrew Gibson tells the relevant story and asks what aspects of modern politics we might want to salvage and preserve and within what structure we might continue thinking about them. His answer is that these questions call for the isolation of a particular set of concepts; that, rightly positioned in relation to one another, the concepts amount to a political theology; that the very formulation of political temporality is therefore at stake; and that the thinking in question has been and is best represented in modern philosophy and art, above all, modern literature. Ranging through early modern and modern thought from Hobbes, Pascal and Leibniz to Rousseau, Kant, Schopenhauer and Kierkegaard to Foucault, Lacan, Badiou, Jambet and Ranciиre, and in modern literature and art from Wordsworth and Byron to Goya and Wagner, Huysmans and Wilde, Joyce and Woolf, Joseph Roth, Vicki Baum, Gabriele Tergit and the Weimar novel, Evelyn Waugh and George Orwell to R.S. Thomas and Norman Nicholson, Gibson seeks to compile a modern political aide-memoire, a treasury for a politics to come.

How I Defeated Lyme Disease is about overcoming a debilitating dark existence and transforming it into a brilliant example of health and wellness. It is possible to eliminate the symptoms of Lyme disease, and the author walks the readers through the exact methods he used for healing. The journey transcends traditional health books as it travels beyond the physical-biological world and explores the essential aspects of a world unseen.
The information in this book encompasses a rehabilitation of body, mind, and spirit. Also discussed is the philosophy behind a healing mindset. The author goes outside the standard Lyme disease narrative and addresses other hidden maladies that may be preventing recovery. This material even covers other principles needed for success for the reader to be able to better their life systemically rather than just biologically.
How I Defeated Lyme Disease is an inspiration for total transformation and designed to set the reader on their journey of healing and personal growth.
