Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La philosophie, dans sa version théorique, a depuis l'origine un problème de communication avec le grand public. Ce problème est coextensif à sa définition mème. En exportant de la caverne le langage ordinaire pour atteindre la vérité, pour l'utiliser comme outil de cognition, comme langage de l'objet, elle l'a coupé de sa fonction propre qui est celle d'une communication inter nos, entre sujets. Il s'agira donc de distinguer nettement philosophie théorique, ou philosophie du dehors, et pratique philosophique, un usage de la philosophie adapté aux conditions du dedans, d'étudier les conditions d'une philosophie de la caverne . Ceci ne pourra se faire qu'au prix d'une refonte et plus précisément d'une inversion des concepts fondamentaux de la philosophie théorique.

This book was released on 2010-03-29 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'inquiétante allégorie de Platon ne mérite-t-elle pas qu'on lui consacre un travail patient et rigoureux ? Les images qui lui servent de support offrent l'occasion d'une méditation profonde sur l'âme humaine et sa relation au réel. Au fond, ce texte met au jour l'intention de philosopher, et il éclaire pourquoi, selon les termes de Rousseau, Platon est bien celui qui a "épuré le cœur de l'homme".

Download or read book The Allegory of the Cave written by Plato and published by Strelbytskyy Multimedia Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-08 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Allegory of the Cave, or Plato's Cave, was presented by the Greek philosopher Plato in his work Republic (514a–520a) to compare "the effect of education (παιδεία) and the lack of it on our nature". It is written as a dialogue between Plato's brother Glaucon and his mentor Socrates, narrated by the latter. The allegory is presented after the analogy of the sun (508b–509c) and the analogy of the divided line (509d–511e). All three are characterized in relation to dialectic at the end of Books VII and VIII (531d–534e). Plato has Socrates describe a group of people who have lived chained to the wall of a cave all of their lives, facing a blank wall. The people watch shadows projected on the wall from objects passing in front of a fire behind them, and give names to these shadows. The shadows are the prisoners' reality.

Book Synopsis Alienation and Theatricality by : Phoebe von Held
Download or read book Alienation and Theatricality written by Phoebe von Held and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alienation (Vefremdung) is a concept inextricably linked with the name of twentieth-century German playwright Bertolt Brecht - with modernism, the avant-garde and Marxist theory. However, as Phoebe von Held argues in this book, 'alienation' as a sociological and aesthetic notionavant la lettre had already surfaced in the thought of eighteenth-century French philosopher and writer Denis Diderot. This original study destabilizes the conventional understanding of alienation through a reading ofLe Paradoxe sur le comedien, Le Neveu de Rameau and other works by Diderot, opening up new ways of interpretation and aesthetic practices. If alienation constitutes a historical development for the Marxist Brecht, for Diderot it defines an existential condition. Brecht uses the alienation-effect to undermine a form of naturalism based on subjectivity, identification and illusion; Diderot, by contrast, plunges the spectator into identification and illusion, to produce an aesthetic of theatricality that is profoundly alienating and yet remains anchored in subjectivity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En 1979, Jean-François Lyotard a articulé la condition postmoderne, annonçant la fin de la modernité. Mais la modernité nous tient encore et se réinvente dans des nouvelles périodisations. Il nous incombe de reprendre la réflexion sur ce paradigme à la fois historique, culturel et social, et ceci, à partir de notre condition de « puînés » de la modernité. Tel est le programme de réflexion de cet ouvrage collectif qui privilégie une approche interdisciplinaire et internationale.

Book Synopsis Giordano Bruno: Philosopher of the Renaissance by : Hilary Gatti
Download or read book Giordano Bruno: Philosopher of the Renaissance written by Hilary Gatti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Giordano Bruno was burnt at the stake in Rome in 1600, accused of heresy by the Inquisition. His life took him from Italy to Northern Europe and England, and finally to Venice, where he was arrested. His six dialogues in Italian, which today are considered a turning point towards the philosophy and science of the modern world, were written during his visit to Elizabethan London, as a gentleman attendant to the French Ambassador, Michel de Castelnau. He died refusing to recant views which he defined as philosophical rather than theological, and for which he claimed liberty of expression. The papers in this volume derive from a conference held in London to commemorate the 400th anniversary of Bruno's death. A number focus specifically on his experience in England, while others look at the Italian context of his thought and his impact upon others. Together they constitute a major new survey of the range of Bruno's philosophical activity, as well as evaluating his use of earlier cultural traditions and his influence on both contemporary and more modern themes and trends.
Book Synopsis Plato and Socrates (RLE: Plato) by : Richard McKirahan
Download or read book Plato and Socrates (RLE: Plato) written by Richard McKirahan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This valuable work of reference provides a comprehensive bibliography on all scholarly work that was published on Plato and Socrates during the years 1958-73. It thus forms an important addition to Harold Cherniss’s bibliography, which covered the years 1950-7. The author has sought to include all materials primarily concerned with Socrates and Plato, together with other works which make a contribution to our understanding of the two philosophers. The bibliography is arranged by topic and there are cross-references at the end of each section. The works in each category are arranged chronologically and then alphabetically (by author) within each year. An effort has been made to distinguish when a book has had more than one edition and when an article has been reprinted. Additionally the author has listed reviews of books and dissertations as these have come to his attention.
Book Synopsis Richardson and the Philosophes by : James Fowler
Download or read book Richardson and the Philosophes written by James Fowler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In mid-eighteenth-century Europe, a taste for sentiment accompanied the 'rise of the novel', and the success of Samuel Richardson (1689-1761) played a vital role in this. James Fowler's new study is the first to compare the response of the most famous philosophes to the Richardson phenomenon. Voltaire, who claims to despise the novel, writes four 'Richardsonian' fictions; Diderot's fascination with the English author is expressed in La Religieuse, Rousseau's in Julie - the century's bestseller. Yet the philosophes' response remains ambivalent. On the one hand they admire Richardson's ability to make the reader weep. On the other, they champion a range of Enlightenment beliefs which he, an enthusiast of Milton, vehemently opposed. In death as in life, the English author exacerbates the philosophes' rivalry. The eulogy which Diderot writes in 1761 implicitly asks: who can write a new Clarissa? But also: whose social, philosophical or political ideas will triumph as a result?

Download or read book La caverne written by Manuel de Diéguez and published by FeniXX. This book was released on 1974-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 1208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La caverne se compose de trois parties : l’Enfer, le Purgatoire et le Paradis, symboles d’une initiation progressive à la critique radicale de la notion de cause intelligible. Tout l’ouvrage déploie la question de savoir si les célèbres Yahous, imaginés par Swift, sont dotés d’une lueur de raison. L’Enfer étudie l’empire et le destin du calcul, texture et mesure des “causes”. Descartes, Don Quichotte, saint Ignace et quelques autres témoignent d’une histoire cachée du sacrifice rituel. Celui-ci apparaît au cœur de l’évolution de la physique, de Thalès à Einstein. La notion d’idole est réintroduite dans la métaphysique. Le Purgatoire est placé sous la protection d’Homère et de Dante. Le destin de la raison naturelle des Yahous est soumis à une forte purge intellectuelle. Le narrateur, voguant d’île en île, visite tour à tour Scylla, l’île des Innocents, l’île des Disputeurs, des Lotophages, de Médamothi et d’Hélios Hypérion. La métaphysique “cyclopéenne” est observée et moquée en son œil rond. Les personnages qui animent en secret la logique classique se démasquent. L’histoire des mathématiques, tantôt jansénistes, tantôt pélagiennes, est mêlée aux problèmes de la théologie et de l’exégèse sacrée. Une certaine lecture symbolique de l’Odyssée sert de référent constant à une “divine comédie” de la métaphysique occidentale. On découvre, ce dont on se doutait, que la théologie est malade de sa philosophie. Le Paradis raconte comment les philosophes, transportés au paradis de la pensée, où les choses sont enfin des choses et les preuves des preuves, s’initient à l’ironie socratique. Par une exégèse de la mort de Socrate, et par une analyse des actes et des feux de l’esprit, les rapports de la philosophie grecque au christianisme sont soumis à un questionnement nouveau et testimonial. L’ensemble de l’ouvrage développe, dans ses conséquences philosophiques, une anthropologie critique des idoles. La mise en question radicale de l’intelligibilité de la notion de cause, amorcée par Science et Nescience, débouche sur la nuit obscure de la philosophie et sur l’écoute, en elle, d’une vive flamme de la raison.
Download or read book Genuine Fakes written by Lydia Pyne and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-08-08 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Lively, thought-provoking and consistently surprising. Lydia Pyne is the real deal.' Ed Yong, author of New York Times bestseller I Contain Multitudes Does an authentic Andy Warhol painting need to be painted by Andy Warhol? Why do audiences feel outraged when they find out that scenes from their beloved blockbuster documentaries are staged? Can people move past assuming that a diamond grown in a lab is a fake? What happens when a forged painting or manuscript becomes more valuable than its original? This is a book about genuine fakes – the curious and complex objects that provoke these very sorts of questions. Genuine fakes fall into the space between things that are real and things that are not; whether or not we think that those things are authentic is a matter of perspective. Unsurprisingly, the world is full of genuine fakes – full of things that defy simple categorisation. From stories of audacious forgeries to feats of technological innovation, historian Lydia Pyne explores how the authenticity of eight genuine fakes depends on their unique combinations of history, science and culture. The stories of art forgeries, fake fossils, nature documentaries, synthetic flavours, museum exhibits, Maya codices and Palaeolithic replicas show that genuine fakes are both complicated and change over time. Drawing from historical archives, interviews, museum exhibits and science fiction as well as her own research, Pyne brings each genuine fake to life through unexpected and often outrageous stories. Genuine Fakes will make readers think about all the unreal things they encounter in their daily lives, and why they invoke the reactions – surprise, wonder, understanding or annoyance – that they do.
