Book Synopsis Byron and the Forms of Thought by : Anthony Howe
Download or read book Byron and the Forms of Thought written by Anthony Howe and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2013-09-20 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Open Access edition of this book is available on the Liverpool University Press website and the OAPEN library. Byron and the Forms of Thought is a major new study of Byron as a poet and thinker. While informed by recent work on Byron’s philosophical contexts, the book questions attempts to describe Byron as a philosopher of a particular kind. It approaches Byron, rather, as a writer fascinated by the different ways of thinking philosophy and poetry are taken to represent. After an Introduction that explores Byron’s reception as a thinker, the book moves to a new reading of Byron’s scepticism, arguing for a close proximity, in Byron’s thought, between epistemology and poetics. This is explored through readings of Byron’s efforts both as a philosophical poet and writer of critical prose. The conclusions reached form the basis of an extended reading of Don Juan as a critical narrative that investigates connections between visionary and political consciousness. What emerges is a deeply thoughtful poet intrigued and exercised by the possibilities of literary form.
Book Synopsis Contemporary Narratives of Ageing, Illness, Care by : Katsura Sako
Download or read book Contemporary Narratives of Ageing, Illness, Care written by Katsura Sako and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-24 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays explores cultural narratives of care in the contexts of ageing and illness. It includes both text-based and practice-based contributions by leading and emerging scholars in humanistic studies of ageing. The authors consider care not only in film (feature and documentary) and literature (novel, short story, children’s picturebook) but also in the fields of theatre performance, photography and music. The collection has a broad geographical scope, with case studies and primary texts from Europe and North America but also from Hong Kong, Japan, Australia, Argentina and Mexico. The volume asks what care, autonomy and dependence may mean and how these may be inflected by social and cultural specificities. Ultimately, it invites us to reflect on our relations to others as we face the global and local challenges of care in ageing societies.
Download or read book Rift in the Races written by John Daulton and published by John Daulton. This book was released on 2013-01-05 with total page 811 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rift in the Races (Book 2 of The Galactic Mage series) follows the continuing story of powerful Prosperion sorcerer Altin Meade and feisty Earth-fleet officer Orli Pewter in the fight against the mysterious alien Hostiles. The Earth fleet is now moving to take advantage of its recent victory. With better combat strategies and Prosperion wizards only a blink away, the time has come to finish the job they set out to do: destroying the Hostiles. But complications arise. Altin's discovery of space-traveling humans from distant Earth has threatened ancient and foundational beliefs for the people of his world. The shockwaves from this revelation begin to unravel a long-standing but precarious balance of power. With her eyes to the sky and all its galactic possibilities, Prosperion's War Queen soon finds her realm on the brink of chaos. Together, Altin and Orli must once again find a way to mediate the forces of pride, frustration and fear between their two peoples, or both planets will be destroyed. What ensues is an action-packed, laser-blasting magic ride through space, war, romance and conspiracy--a thrilling tale of alliances and alien hostility. Unfortunately, sometimes "alien hostility" is a matter of perspective. *** Rift in the Races is the second book in The Galactic Mage series. Book 1, The Galactic Mage, and Book 3, Hostiles, are now available. Book 4, Alien Arrivals, is underway and expected in summer 2014 and a prequel, Ilbei Spadebreaker and the Harpy's Wild, is expected in March 2014.

Book Synopsis Violence and Nihilism by : Luís Aguiar de Sousa
Download or read book Violence and Nihilism written by Luís Aguiar de Sousa and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-07-05 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nihilism seems to be per definition linked to violence. Indeed, if the nihilist is a person who acknowledges no moral or religious authority, then what does stop him from committing any kind of crime? Dostoevsky precisely called attention to this danger: if there is no God and no immortality of the soul, then everything is permitted, even anthropophagy. Nietzsche, too, emphasised, although in different terms, the consequences deriving from the death of God and the collapse of Judeo-Christian morality. This context shaped the way in which philosophers, writers and artists thought about violence, in its different manifestations, during the 20th century. The goal of this interdisciplinary volume is to explore the various modern and contemporary configurations of the link between violence and nihilism as understood by philosophers and artists (in both literature and film).
Download or read book AKASHA written by WAGNER WOELKE and published by Wagner Woelke. This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human question is a great enigma, and it seems to us that the natural laws we know today are not enough to explain not only the wonder of life, but also the complex and fantastic psychological phenomena that are our own reality. It is clear that the organization of life within the framework in which Western civilization imposes on us in this age prevents and makes unfeasible some more fruitful and even honest endeavor on matters of a spiritual nature, and we have contented ourselves with mockery and an infinity of false realities in this area of our lives for millennia. AKASHA - OUR REGISTERS INTO ETERNITY offers an analysis from a point of view free from the influence of dogmas and beliefs imposed on the popular masses...

Book Synopsis A Philosophy of Hope by : Bernard N. Schumacher
Download or read book A Philosophy of Hope written by Bernard N. Schumacher and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Schumacher looks at hope as a virtue, one opposed by vices such as despair and presumption, particularly as they are treated in existentialism and Marxism. He also explores Pieper's treatment of hope in relation to the ideas of death and immorality, and in the philosophy of history. Using the idea of hope to examine such themes as dignity, ethics, the good, and the just, Schumacher provides a valuable, wide-ranging introduction to a shaper of contemporary Christian thought against a richly drawn intellectual background."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Synopsis Concentrationary Imaginaries by : Griselda Pollock
Download or read book Concentrationary Imaginaries written by Griselda Pollock and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-30 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1945, French political prisoners returning from the concentration camps of Germany coined the phrase 'the concentrationary universe' to describe the camps as a terrible political experiment in the destruction of the human. This book shows how the unacknowledged legacy of a totalitarian mentality has seeped into the deepest recesses of everyday popular culture. It asks if the concentrationary now infests our cultural imaginary, normalizing what was once considered horrific and exceptional by transforming into entertainment violations of human life. Drawing on the political philosophy of Hannah Arendt and the analyses of violence by Agamben, Virilio, Lacoue-Labarthe and Nancy, it also offers close readings of films by Cavani and Haneke that identify and critically expose such an imaginary and, hence, contest its lingering force.
