Book Synopsis Views from the Other Shore by : Aileen M. Kelly
Download or read book Views from the Other Shore written by Aileen M. Kelly and published by . This book was released on 2012-09-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this brilliant companion volume to her highly praised Toward Another Shore: Russian Thinkers Between Necessity and Chance, Aileen M. Kelly closely examines a humanist strand of Russian thought that has until now received little notice or understanding. She finds in the writings of Aleksandr Herzen, Anton Chekhov, and Mikhail Bakhtin a pioneering emphasis on the role of chance and contingency in nature and history. Their writing on this theme, she argues, establishes the importance of these humanists in the development of European thought. Herzen, the principal subject of the book, was among the first nineteenth-century thinkers to challenge the assumptions underlying doctrines of universal progress. Kelly links Herzen’s outlook to the work of such Western humanists and scientists as Francis Bacon, Schiller, Proudhon, J. S. Mill, and Darwin. She shows how the view of freedom that Herzen shared with Chekhov and Bakhtin provides an antidote both to traditional absolutes and to the boundless relativism of much postmodern theory. As such it offers an answer to the question now besetting intellectuals in Russia and the West: how to ground morality after the collapse of ideological certainties.

Download or read book Chekhov and Other Essays (Illustrated) written by Lev Shestov and published by . This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although little known in the English-speaking world, Lev Shestov was a highly regarded philosopher who influenced some of the most pivotal figures of the 20th century including Nikolai Berdyaev and Sergei Bulgakov in Russia, George Bataille, Jules de Gaultier, Lucien Lévy-Bruhl and Albert Camus in France, and D. H. Lawrence and John Middleton Murry in England. Shestov was deeply interested in the works of Friedrich Nietzsche and Soren Kierkegaard. Emil Cioran wrote about Shestov; "He was the philosopher of my generation, which didn't succeed in realizing itself spiritually, but remained nostalgic about such a realization. Shestov [...] has played an important role in my life. [...] He thought rightly that the true problems escape the philosophers. What else do they do but obscuring the real torments of life?" As an existentialist, Shestov was known for his "Philosophy of Despair". His work is often fragmentary, and he maintained that no one system could solve the mysteries of life. Rather than a theory or idea, he expounded the experience of despair which he described as a loss of certainties, loss of freedom, and even a loss of the meaning of life. But through this, Shestov attempts to break beyond despair to a place that he refers to as "Faith", which derives from the deepest place of insecurity and doubt. This updated edition includes a collection of selected quotes by Shestov, as well as multiple images of Shestov and his contemporaries. Also included is an active table of contents for convenient reference.
Book Synopsis Anton Tchekhov and Other Essays by : Leon Shestov
Download or read book Anton Tchekhov and Other Essays written by Leon Shestov and published by Goldstein Press. This book was released on 2012-12 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This rare book contains a collection of essays by the influential Russian philosopher, Lev Isaakovich Shestov. One of the most delicate and individual of modern Russian critics, Shestov was a radical empiricist and proto-existentialist thinker who integrated literary theory and philosophical thought in a masterful way that inspired such minds as Camus, Dostoyevsky, Deleuze, D.H. Lawrence, and Bataille. Included in this collection are the essays: Anton Tchehov, The Gift of Prophecy, Penultimate Words, and The Theory of Knowledge. Written aphoristically, the works contained herein are interesting and insightful, and constitute a must-read for all students of philosophy unfamiliar with the fascinating ideas of Shestov. Lev Isaakovich Shestov (1866-1938) was a Russian existentialist philosopher whose notable works include The Good in the Teaching of Tolstoy and Nietzsche (1899) and The Philosophy of Tragedy, Dostoevsky and Nietzsche (1903). This rare book was originally published in 1916 and is proudly republished here with a new introductory biography of the author.
