As for my paper, it could easily be written between ten and two in the night, nor would it be the first time that I had burned midnight oil without disastrous results... Having decided upon this, the oppression lifted, the patter of the rain made a pleasantly intimate sound and the grey light assumed an enveloping and protecting air. All was well again except that deep down there remained a gnawing sense of weakness and defeat. I was about to attack my books with cheerfulness, if not with enthusiasm, when Taddeo himself was announced as waiting to see me downstairs. He never before had come to this house where I lived, and I descended wondering and puzzled, and the impression I got on seeing him standing in the so-called parlour was chiefly that of the ugliness of everything excepting himself. And then in his gentlest and simplest manner he spoke, and apologized for coming at all, and remarked that he had but come to say farewell, for he found himself obliged to go to Frankfurt to see an old friend of his father's who would be there the next day. "For how long?" I managed to ask, as I felt myself flushing with surprise. "Only for a week or two, three at the utmost," said Taddeo, who was looking at me with an irritating expression of angelic satisfaction. I thereupon said that I hoped he would enjoy himself, that I should be working very hard at my Referat in the meanwhile, that I should not have been able to go out with him during the next weeks anyhow, that I computed it would take me four hours a day for two weeks to do the necessary reading, and four or five days for the actual writing, --"so I shan't miss you as much as I might otherwise have done," I added, because, after all, it was Taddeo and...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Philosophy: An Autobiographical Fragment Herr Broderson's voice cut more and more incisely into the atmosphere, his sentences were neat and complete, and by the time be touched upon the heart of the doctrine, my attention had with a great effort returned to his discourse; the sun was extinguished, all sounds of nature were silenced, the Gothic cloisters and New York were correlative geographical points, and Broderson the mediator between the new doctrine and myself. My walk homeward in the golden air of the setting sun was a progres sion through the many objections that presented themselves to my mind, one after the other, in reference to the doctrine with which I had just become acquainted.

Download or read book From the Course of My Life written by Rudolf Steiner and published by Rudolf Steiner Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your favorite occupation? Pondering and musing. Your idea of happiness? Pondering and musing. Your most extreme aversion? Pedantry and a sense of order. Of what are you afraid? Punctuality. These quotations are from a questionnaire filled in by a young man in his late twenties. That person, Rudolf Steiner, would later initiate Spiritual Science, or Anthroposophy, and the many practical disciplines that arose from it. Eventually, he would write his Autobiography: Chapters in the Course of My Life, although its completion would be interrupted by his unexpected death. This book is an essential complement to Steiner's unfinished Autobiography. It gathers a wealth of personal testimonies--including lectures, r sum s, notebook entries, a questionnaire, as well as biographical notes written for douard Schur --much of which has not been previously published in English. The various materials, together with rare photographs, have been expertly collated and introduced by Walter Kugler.

This book was released on 2011-11-28 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shattered Pictures of Places and Cities se adentra por las páginas autobiográficas, filosóficas y narrativas más relevantes de George Santayana discurriendo por sus viajes y geografías físicas en paralelo a sus viajes y geografías morales. Es un intento de ir más allá de la reflexión entorno a los orígenes biográficos del filósofo; de ahí que se recupere una indagación sobre su habitar el lenguaje y el arte. Santayana reconsidera los fundamentos del arte de la memoria clásica en su autobiografía, para formular una nueva propuesta estética donde el arte y la vida se funden y se confunden, estimulándose recíprocamente. Hila una filosofía del viaje y del lugar, donde se privilegia una noción del habitar que ilumina nuestra condición de nómadas -en la vida y en el pensamiento-, y nuestra trágica estable inestabilidad en este mundo.

Download or read book Philosophy and Autobiography written by Christopher Hamilton and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-13 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, taking its point of departure from Stanley Cavell’s claim that philosophy and autobiography are dimensions of each other, aims to explore some of the relations between these forms of reflection, first by seeking to develop an outline of a philosophy of autobiography, and then by exploring the issue from the side of five autobiographical works. Christopher Hamilton argues in the volume that there are good reasons for thinking that philosophical texts can be considered autobiographical, and then turns to discuss the autobiographies of Walter Benjamin, Peter Weiss, Jean-Paul Sartre, George Orwell, Edmund Gosse and Albert Camus. In discussing these works, Hamilton explores how they put into question certain received understandings of what philosophical texts suppose themselves to be doing, and also how they themselves constitute philosophical explorations of certain key issues, e.g. the self, death, religious and ethical consciousness, sensuality, the body. Throughout, there is an exploration of the ways in which autobiographies help us in thinking about self-knowledge and knowledge of others. A final chapter raises some issues concerning the fact that the five autobiographies discussed here are all texts dealing with childhood.

Download or read book The Philosophy of Autobiography written by Christopher Cowley and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-10-26 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book promises to be the first of its kind: a philosophical investigation of autobiographical writing. All of us are autobiographers at least some of the time, and all of us crave certain kinds of recognition and confirmation from others, just as we fear blame and reproach from those who know us well. The philosophy of autobiography examines this fundamental story-telling process and its place in our lives. As such it straddles a number of long-standing philosophical questions, having to do with the meaning of life, the problems of autonomy and responsibility and authenticity, the nature of self-deception and bad faith, the structure of the self and its existence through time, the question of the reliability and meaning of memory, and the problem of understanding another person and imaginatively identifying with him. The contributors to the volume are mostly philosophers, but many of them have interests outside philosophy and have been informed by research findings from literary theory and from psychiatry. Some of the contributors are also literary theorists, and one of them has even published autobiographical work. Contributors also examine specific autobiographies and diaries, of philosophers and non-philosophers, as well as fictional works using an autobiographical format, in order to explore the philosophical implications and presuppositions of the genre. The result is a most useful and productive interdisciplinary exchange.

Download or read book The Philosophy of Charlie Kaufman written by David LaRocca and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2011-05-27 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Academy Award--winning Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) and Academy Award--nominated Adaptation (2002) to the cult classic Being John Malkovich (1999), writer Charlie Kaufman is widely admired for his innovative, philosophically resonant films. Although he only recently made his directorial debut with Synecdoche, New York (2008), most fans and critics refer to "Kaufman films" the way they would otherwise discuss works by directors Woody Allen, Martin Scorsese, or the Coen brothers. Not only has Kaufman transformed our sense of what can take place in a film, but he also has made a significant impact on our understanding of the role of the screenwriter. The Philosophy of Charlie Kaufman, edited by David LaRocca, is the first collection of essays devoted to a rigorous philosophical exploration of Kaufman's work by a team of capable and critical scholars from a wide range of disciplines. From political theorists to philosophers, classicists to theologians, professors of literature to filmmakers, the contributing authors delve into the heart of Kaufman's innovative screenplays, offering not only original philosophical analyses but also extended reflections on the nature of film and film criticism.

Download or read book Kierkegaard and His Danish Contemporaries: Philosophy, politics and social theory written by Jon Bartley Stewart and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2009 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume features articles that employ source-work research in order to explore the individual Danish sources of Kierkegaard's thought. The volume is divided into three tomes in order to cover the different fields of influence.Tome I is dedicated to exploring the sources that fall under the rubrics, Philosophy, Politics and Social Theory. With regard to philosophy, Kierkegaard read the works of all the foremost Danish thinkers of the time and their German antecedents, in particular Cont, Schilling and Hegel. While he was sympathetic to individual ideas offered by this tradition, he was generally keen to criticise the German model of philosophy and to propose a new paradigm for philosophical thought that was more in tune with lived existence. Kierkegaard also experienced the dynamic period in history that saw the great upheavals throughout Europe in connection with the revolutions of 1848 and the First Schleswig War. While it has long been claimed that Kierkegaard was not interested in politics, recent research supports a quite different picture. To be sure, he cannot be regarded as a political scientist or social theorist in a traditional sense, but he was nonetheless engaged in the issues of his day, and in his works one can certainly find material that can be insightful for the fields of politics and social theory.
