Download or read book Rediscovering Benjamin Fondane written by and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2003 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benjamin Fondane was a poet, literary critic, and philosopher who produced most of his literary works in Paris in the 1930s. He became a disciple of his close friend, the Russian philosopher of existential thought, Lev Shestov. Fondane's fascination with the tragic in his verse can be traced to the belief he shared with Shestov that one's spirit is elevated through personal suffering. Fondane also believed in the magic of poetic creativity and its incredible force as it goes beyond logic and beyond the self, and he declined the importance of aesthetics in favor of the tragic verse. Unlike the Surrealists whom he criticized, Fondane's poetics was not in search for answers: He realized that the joy of existence consists in our continual inner search rather than a presumptuous explanation of the meaning of life.

Book Synopsis Encounters with Levinas by : Thomas Trezise
Download or read book Encounters with Levinas written by Thomas Trezise and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The philosopher Emmanuel Levinas produced a considerable body of work, most notably Totality and infinity and Otherwise than Being, as well as a series of texts devoted specifically to Judaism. Yet Levinas would not have achieved his current status and influence were it not that his probing of the ethical relation to the other continues to raise more questions than it answers, and this within quite different orders of intellectual inquiry. Thus it is this Levinasian motif of the encounter with the other that was chosen to serve as a principle both of unity and diversity for the present volume" -- from book cover.
Download or read book Benjamin Fondane's Ulysses written by and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2017-06-29 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1923, when he emigrated from Bucharest, to his deportation to Auschwitz-Birkenau in 1944, Benjamin Fondane made a unique and independent-minded contribution to the literary and intellectual life of Paris. One of the most significant pieces in Fondane’s body of work is the long poem Ulysses, first published in 1933. Fondane considerably revised his text during the dark years of occupied Paris, and it is this second “edition without an end,” left unfinished at the time of his deportation, that is translated here. It is a moving testament to the poetic voice and philosophical engagement of this exceptional figure of the Paris avant-garde.
Book Synopsis Existential Monday by : Benjamin Fondane
Download or read book Existential Monday written by Benjamin Fondane and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2016-05-17 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benjamin Fondane—who was born and educated in Romania, moved as an adult to Paris, lived for a time in Buenos Aires, where he was close to Victoria Ocampo, Jorge Luis Borges’s friend and publisher, and died in Auschwitz—was an artist and thinker who found in every limit, in every border, “a torture and a spur.” Poet, critic, man of the theater, movie director, Fondane was the most daring of the existentialists, a metaphysical anarchist, affirming individual against those great abstractions that limit human freedom—the State, History, the Law, the Idea. Existential Monday, the first selection of his philosophical work to appear in English, includes four of Fondane's most thought-provoking and important texts, "Existential Monday and the Sunday of History," "Preface for the Present Moment," "Man Before History" (co-translated by Andrew Rubens), and "Boredom." Here Fondane, until now little-known except to specialists, emerges as one of the enduring French philosophers of the twentieth century.

Download or read book Lev Shestov written by Michael Finkenthal and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Lev Shestov: Existential Philosopher and Religious Thinker, Michael Finkenthal explores the evolution of Lev Shestov's philosophical and religious intellectual contributions. The hermeneutical effort is mainly based on the Shestovian oeuvre, but his thought is considered in light of existential philosophies in their evolution from Pascal, Nietzsche, and Kierkegaard to those of the twentieth century. Shestov's «deconstruction» of philosophy is discussed parallel to the analysis of the formation of his religious thought and its relevancy in the context of efforts by Buber, Rosenzweig, and Levinas to redefine Judaism.

Book Synopsis Baudelaire's Bitter Metaphysics by : Aaron Brice Cummings
Download or read book Baudelaire's Bitter Metaphysics written by Aaron Brice Cummings and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-09-12 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baudelaire’s Bitter Metaphysics: Anti-Nihilist Readings by Fondane, Benjamin, and Sartre reconstructs a philosophical trialogue that might have been expected to take place between Benjamin Fondane, Walter Benjamin, and Jean-Paul Sartre over their philosophical readings of Charles Baudelaire, an exchange preempted by the untimely deaths of two of the interlocutors during the Nazi holocaust. Why did three of Europe’s sharpest minds respond to the terror of 1933-45 by writing about a long-dead poet? Aaron Brice Cummings argues that Fondane, Benjamin, and Sartre turned to the poet of nihilism’s abyss because they recognized a fact of cultural history that remains relevant today: until sometime in the 2080s, the literary world will have to confront (even if to deny) the two-century window forecast by Nietzsche as the age of cultural and existential nihilism. Accordingly, the author examines the bitter metaphysics latent in Baudelaire’s motifs of the abyss, clocks, brutes, streets, and bored dandies. In so doing, this book confronts the nothingness which modern life encounters in the heart of art, ethics, ideality, time, memory, history, urban life, and religion.
Book Synopsis Partea nevazuta decide totul by : Horia-Roman Patapievici

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: „Tot sensul vieții noastre poate fi gândit ca o aducere la vizibilitate, prin felul nostru de a vedea, a părții de nevăzut din lume şi din fiecare. Fiecare dintre eseurile cuprinse în acest volum pune în lumină sau celebrează o formă de nevăzut. Nu este nevăzutul suprasensibil ori extrasenzorial. Nu e nimic mistic în nevăzutul de care vorbesc și nimic mistagogic în felul în care îl invoc. Nevăzutul nu e o opțiune. Nevăzutul este aici, lângă noi, în noi, ca un dat inconturnabil al lumii și al naturii noastre. Suntem în el predați lui cu totul, așa cum suntem predați apei, când ne scufundăm, ori aerului, când ne regăsim respirația. Singularitatea condiției noastre constă în faptul că partea nevăzută, în viața noastră, decide totul, în situația în care singurele dovezi ale nevăzutului de care depindem stau în văzutul după care fugim, ori de care fugim, ori pe care îl pierdem.“ „La început, esenţa umanităţii europene a fost a unui om care se refugia dintr-un dezastru: gestul fondator constă în faptul că, în Eneida, eroul nu a părăsit Troia distrusă de flăcări singur, ci împreună cu esența trecutului său. Enea îl ducea în spinare pe bătrânul său tată, Anchise, care, la rândul lui, purta cu el larii și penații strămoșilor. Această imagine a fost cifrul simbolic al Romei și, ori de câte ori s-a reinventat, a fost și cifrul simbolic al Europei.“ (Horia-Roman PATAPIEVICI)

Book Synopsis Volume 19, Tome III: Kierkegaard Bibliography by : Peter Šajda
Download or read book Volume 19, Tome III: Kierkegaard Bibliography written by Peter Šajda and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The long tradition of Kierkegaard studies has made it impossible for individual scholars to have a complete overview of the vast field of Kierkegaard research. The large and ever increasing number of publications on Kierkegaard in the languages of the world can be simply bewildering even for experienced scholars. The present work constitutes a systematic bibliography which aims to help students and researchers navigate the seemingly endless mass of publications. The volume is divided into two large sections. Part I, which covers Tomes I-V, is dedicated to individual bibliographies organized according to specific language. This includes extensive bibliographies of works on Kierkegaard in some 41 different languages. Part II, which covers Tomes VI-VII, is dedicated to shorter, individual bibliographies organized according to specific figures who are in some way relevant for Kierkegaard. The goal has been to create the most exhaustive bibliography of Kierkegaard literature possible, and thus the bibliography is not limited to any specific time period but instead spans the entire history of Kierkegaard studies.
Book Synopsis The Apostle Paul in the Jewish Imagination by : Daniel R. Langton
Download or read book The Apostle Paul in the Jewish Imagination written by Daniel R. Langton and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-22 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Apostle Paul in the Jewish Imagination is a pioneering multidisciplinary examination of Jewish perspectives on Paul of Tarsus. Here, the views of individual Jewish theologians, religious leaders, and biblical scholars of the last 150 years, together with artistic, literary, philosophical, and psychoanalytical approaches, are set alongside popular cultural attitudes. Few Jews, historically speaking, have engaged with the first-century Apostle to the Gentiles. The modern period has witnessed a burgeoning interest in this topic, however, with treatments reflecting profound concerns about the nature of Jewish authenticity and the developing intercourse between Jews and Christians. In exploring these issues, Jewish commentators have presented Paul in a number of apparently contradictory ways. The Apostle Paul in the Jewish Imagination represents an important contribution to Jewish cultural studies and to the study of Jewish-Christian relations.
