Book Synopsis A New Physiognomy of Jewish Thinking by : Aubrey L. Glazer
Download or read book A New Physiognomy of Jewish Thinking written by Aubrey L. Glazer and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2011-03-24 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New Physiognomy of Jewish Thinking is a search for authenticity that combines critical thinking with a yearning for heartfelt poetics. A physiognomy of thinking addresses the figure of a life lived where theory and praxis are unified. This study explores how the critical essays on music of German-Jewish thinker, Theodor Wiesengrund Adorno (1903-1969) necessarily accompany the downfall of metaphysics. By scrutinizing a critical juncture in modern intellectual history, marked in 1931 by Adorno's founding of the Frankfurt Institute for Social Research, neglected applications of Critical Theory to Jewish Thought become possible. This study proffers a constructive justification of a critical standpoint, reconstructively shown how such ideals are seen under the genealogical proviso of re/cognizing their original meaning. Re/cognition of A New Physiognomy of Jewish Thinking redresses neglected applications of Negative Dialectics, the poetics of God, the metaphysics of musical thinking, reification in Zionism, the transpoetics of Physics and Metaphysics, as well as correlating Aesthetic Theory to Jewish Law (halakhah).

Book Synopsis The New Physiognomy by : Rochelle Rives
Download or read book The New Physiognomy written by Rochelle Rives and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2024-04-09 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating new study of the face, form, and history of expression. Advances in facial recognition, artificial intelligence, and other technologies provoke urgent ethical questions about facial expressivity and how we interpret it. In The New Physiognomy, Rochelle Rives roots contemporary facial dilemmas in a more expansive timeline of modernist engagements with the face to argue that facial ambiguity is essential to how we value other people. Beginning with nineteenth-century caricatures of Oscar Wilde's face, Rives reasons that modernist modes of reading the face perceived it as a manifestation of both biologically determined traits and scripted forms of personality. Considering faces such as sculptures of great poets, portraits of facially wounded World War I soldiers, W. H. Auden's aging face, and Cindy Sherman's recent photographic self-portraits, Rives reframes how to read modernist works by Theodore Dreiser, Edith Wharton, Jean Rhys, Joseph Conrad, Mina Loy, Henry Tonks, and Henri Gaudier-Brzeska.
Download or read book Reading the Face written by Norbert Glas and published by Temple Lodge Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a boy traveling to school by streetcar, Norbert Glas often passed the time by studying the faces of his fellow passengers, pondering the significance of the shapes and contours of their noses, eyes, and mouths. Later in life, after becoming a medical doctor and a student of Rudolf Steiner's spiritual science, Glas gained greater insight into the mysteries of human physiognomy. In Reading the Face, the first translation into English of his seminal work, Glas begins by defining the three parts of the human face and explaining the importance of their relative proportions. A face that is more pronounced in any of these areas tends to indicate certain personality traits and specific physiological characteristics. People with a strong mouth and chin, for example, tend to have a strong will and an active, driven, and assertive nature. With the help of many photos and drawings, Glas presents the physiognomy of three basic types and analyses the specifics of the head, forehead, ears, eyes, mouth, and nose. Reading the Face will be valuable to doctors, teachers, and anyone who wants to better understand, accept, and love others.

Download or read book About Faces written by Sharrona Pearl and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2010-06-15 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When nineteenth-century Londoners looked at each other, what did they see, and how did they want to be seen? Sharrona Pearl reveals the way that physiognomy, the study of facial features and their relationship to character, shaped the way that people understood one another and presented themselves. Physiognomy was initially a practice used to get information about others, but soon became a way to self-consciously give information--on stage, in print, in images, in research, and especially on the street. Moving through a wide range of media, Pearl shows how physiognomical notions rested on instinct and honed a kind of shared subjectivity. She looks at the stakes for framing physiognomy--a practice with a long history--as a science in the nineteenth century. By showing how physiognomy gave people permission to judge others, Pearl holds up a mirror both to Victorian times and our own.
Download or read book The Physiognomy written by Jeffrey Ford and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2019-06-11 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Well-Built City, Master Drachton Below's power is absolute, and he will not hesitate to use it. His primary method of control is through his physiognomists, who are trained to read a person's face and body, perceiving that person's past and secrets-and even events yet to come. These seers are the judges and jury. Now Drachton has found something that could extend his reign for eternity: a fruit that bestows immortality. To investigate its whereabouts, Below sends cold, collected physiognomist Cley to the remote mining town of Anamasobia. One at a time Cley interrogates the townspeople, performing his usual fact finding without issue. That is, until he meets the beautiful and bright Arla, who harbors a secret that could potentially turn Cley's world upside down-and topple the Well-Built City itself. A Kafkaesque journey into the unknown, The Physiognomy is an award-winning trip through a land where the line between reality and imagination is constantly blurred.

Download or read book Physiognomy written by Quyen Quang Tran and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-10-20 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are your first impressions of others often wrong? Do you wish you could be luckier in love? Physiognomy, or the art of reading a person's features, is commonly used in Asian cultures to help people plan for success and steer clear of heartache and frustration. It is also considered enormously helpful when choosing friends, business partners, and romantic interests. Physiognomy can be used not only to discern a person's character and personality, but also to glimpse his or her fate. For example, by reading a special feature on a person, skilled physiognomists can predict whether this person will have a long life, marital happiness, good health, or fame. With the help of physiognomist Quyen Quang Tran, you can learn to use physiognomy in all walks of life. You can also use it to divine what fate may have in store for you and others: success or failure, sickness or health, marital bliss or conflict, or good or bad fortune. Author Quyen Quang Tran has practiced physiognomy for over fifty years. Now, in Physiognomy: The Art of Reading People, he presents fundamental concepts and skills to help others learn this life-changing science. Tran explains the fundamentals of reading the forms on the face and on the body as well as interpreting the voice, color, and countenance of an individual. He includes hundreds of illustrations to help readers identify and read various features on the face and on the body of a person. A special chapter of the book is for the discussion of dozens of readings conducted by Tran's mentor, Mr. Ngo Hung Dien. These stories illustrate the practical applications of physiognomy on people in their own lives. Physiognomy: The Art of Reading People is a thorough guide to the fundamentals. Topics include: observing and interpreting a person's physical forms, his/her color, voice, and countenance, grouping the physiognomic features into sets, and applying physiognomy to daily life of any individual to contemplate. The book also includes forty detailed case studies to illustrate the practical uses of physiognomy. Whether you're seeking insights into your friends or your fate, Physiognomy will offer you a fresh perspective to live a life that you are looking for. "
Book Synopsis Body and Character in Luke and Acts by : Mikeal Carl Parsons
Download or read book Body and Character in Luke and Acts written by Mikeal Carl Parsons and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early Christianity developed in a world where moral significance was often judged based upon physical appearance alone. Exploring the manifestations of this ancient "science" of physiognomy, Parsons rightly shows how Greco-Roman society, and by consequence the author of Luke and Acts, was steeped in this tradition. Luke, however, employs these principles in his writings in order to subvert the paradigm. Using as examples the bent woman (Luke 13), Zacchaeus (Luke 18), the lame man (Acts 3-4), and the Ethiopian eunuch (Acts 8), Parsons shows that the Christian community--both early and present-day--is established only in the image of Jesus Christ.
