Автор: Jeremy Biles, Kent L. Brintnall Название: Negative Ecstasies: Georges Bataille and the Study of Religion ISBN: 082326520X ISBN-13(EAN): 9780823265206 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 29260.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Despite Georges Bataille’s acknowledged influence on major poststructuralist thinkers—including Foucault, Derrida, Kristeva, Lacan, Baudrillard, and Barthes—and his prominence in literary, cultural, and social theory, rarely has he been taken up by scholars of religion, even as issues of the sacred were central to his thinking. Bringing together established scholars and emerging voices, Negative Ecstasies engages Bataille from the perspective of religious studies and theology, forging links with feminist and queer theory, economics, secularism, psychoanalysis, fat studies, and ethics. As these essays demonstrate, Bataille’s work bears significance to contemporary questions in the academy and vital issues in the world. We continue to ignore him at our peril.

Автор: Claire Maria Chambers Название: Performance Studies and Negative Epistemology ISBN: 1137520434 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781137520432 Издательство: Springer Рейтинг: Цена: 83850.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Ideas about negativity, emptiness, nothingness, and disappearance have maintained great theoretical currency in the field of performance theory. Performance Apophatics argues that performance is often an ethical injunction against what it would know or seek to make known. The book explicates texts, performances, and theories of performance as negative epistemologies that encounter the unknown through the known, drawing from literature in theology and apophatic spirituality for guides and examples.

Автор: Hellman Samuel Название: Repairing or Perfecting the World: Admirable Actions of Ordinary People and Unexpected Acts of Admirable People ISBN: 1667825240 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781667825243 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 27580.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: REPAIRING OR PERFECTING THE WORLD is about people, obscure, famous, or somewhere in between. Some were ordinary people doing extraordinary things, while others were well-known people doing unexpected beneficent acts. The actions vary from those of patients or doctors and from warriors to scientists. The book is presented as stories called "carols" that describe these people and their actions. Illustrated in these carols is the importance of individual agency; people can make a difference, both collectively and individually; creed must be accompanied by deed; each individuals actions are important. All such actions must be consistent with caring for our fellow man. The author, Dr Samuel Hellman, states that "The creed and deeds of medical researchers are evolving; hopefully like the arc cited by the Reverend Dr Martin Luther King, Jr., they will bend toward the essential rights and dignity of each individual". The carols presented in REPAIRING OR PERFECTING THE WORLD demonstrate similar curves of human actions in many spheres of human endeavor. The book is presented with three major themes: Hegemony and War; Doctoring and Science; and Feminism and Me. All are concerned with individuals improving the human condition.

When we take a look back at the way Western states have fought terrorist organizations in the last 20 years, it is difficult not to think that these alternatives to war might have been more ethical than the decisions to invade Afghanistan and Iraq in 2001 and in 2003. These cases speak for themselves as they have both led to the death of hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians, which is highly paradoxical in light of the logic that supported these interventions. There is a need to think of alternatives to war that will imply the legitimization of proactive sets of measures that would allow states to effectively prevent terrorist attacks through the use of kinetic force in a limited extent as a way to avoid the terrible and unpredictable effects of wars.
Violent Alternatives to War: Justifying Actions Against Contemporary Terrorism engages in a moral discussion of the challenges associated with violent alternatives to war when confronting terrorism and suggests a comprehensive approach to how this form of violence can be legitimized and how it ought to be used against this contemporary threat.

Автор: Marco Iorio, Ralf Stoecker Название: Actions, Reasons and Reason ISBN: 311034601X ISBN-13(EAN): 9783110346015 Издательство: Walter de Gruyter Цена: 99110.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Through the whole history of mankind philosophers have taken pride in being reasonable agents. During the last decades Rudiger Bittner, one of the internationally best renown german philosophers and winner of the Gottlob Frege award 2011, has developed a surprisingly different picture: We are much more part than master of the universe. The articles in the volume address this challenging view, illuminating and discussing it from various angles of practical philosophy including the aesthetics of film and theatre. Authors: Ansgar Beckermann (Bielefeld), Rudiger Bittner (Bielefeld), Raymond Geuss (Cambridge), Martina Herrmann (Dortmund), Marco Iorio (Potsdam), Susanne Kaul (Bielefeld), Jens Kulenkampff (Erlangen), Hajo Kurzenberger (Hildesheim), Kirsten Meyer (Berlin), Onora O'Neill (Cambridge), Ralf Stoecker (Bielefeld), Jay Wallace (Berkeley).
