Download or read book Magia, scienza e religione nel pensiero occidentale written by Stanley Jeyaraja Tambiah and published by Mimesis. This book was released on 2021-11-18T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distinguere il confine tra magia, scienza e religione nella storia intellettuale dell’Occidente appare molto difficile, se non impossibile. Perché gli sviluppi dell’una sono spesso stati annunciati dall’altra, e perché lo stesso apparire della razionalità si deve a una particolare evoluzione dei saperi magici e religiosi. Stanley Tambiah esamina magia, scienza e religione alla luce di un’analisi storica, attraversando la religione ebraica, il pensiero scientifico dei greci, la filosofia del Rinascimento, la riforma protestante e la rivoluzione scientifica europea a cavallo tra il XVI e il XVII secolo. L’analisi che ne scaturisce è un’inedita discussione attorno alla razionalità, il relativismo e la transitività delle culture che, ancora oggi, costituisce uno dei punti nodali dell’antropologia e della filosofia.
Book Synopsis Magia, Scienza e Religione by : Bronisław Malinowski
Download or read book Magia, Scienza e Religione written by Bronisław Malinowski and published by Edizioni Trabant. This book was released on 2023-12-26 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Negli anni in cui "Magic, Science and Religion" fu pubblicato, attribuire un pensiero scientifico alle popolazioni native era ancora in parte un tabù. Le ricerche antropologiche ponevano spesso l'accento sugli ambiti irrazionali delle culture extraeuropee: il misticismo, il pensiero magico, le credenze ultraterrene. In questo saggio del 1925, Bronislaw Malinowski, facendo tesoro anche delle ricerche a lui recenti di James Frazer, si incarica invece di rappresentare, sulla base della sua esperienza sul campo, la compresenza nella società nativa di tre distinti domini, ciascuno con il compito di dare una risposta a differenti esigenze della vita umana. Alla magia e alla religione, ambiti dell'irrazionale da non confondere tra loro, bisogna affiancare la scienza, ambito del razionale presente in tutte le culture. Ne scaturisce un altro tassello tramite cui Malinowski ha contribuito al rinnovamento della scienza antropologica della sua epoca.

Book Synopsis The Unconscious as Infinite Sets by : Ignacio Matte Blanco
Download or read book The Unconscious as Infinite Sets written by Ignacio Matte Blanco and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-29 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A systematic effort to rethink Freud's theory of the unconscious, aiming to separate out the different forms of unconsciousness. The logico-mathematical treatment of the subject is made easy because every concept used is simple and simply explained from first principles. Each renewed explanation of the facts brings the emergence of new knowledge from old material of truly great importance to the clinician and the theorist alike. A highly original book that ought to be read by everyone interested in psychiatry or in Freudian psychology.
Book Synopsis The Myth of the Other by : Franco Rella
Download or read book The Myth of the Other written by Franco Rella and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rella came of age as a philosopher in Italy during the period of the "crisis of reason" or more generally the exhaustion of classical rationality in its authority to structure experience. For Rella, unlike many others, the tensions of the crisis are productive. In The Myth of the Other, he presents a unique perspective on four seminal French thinkers: Lacan, Foucault, Deleuze, and Bataille. Moe's masterful translation brings this remarkable Italian thinker to American readers for the first time. This slim book mayvery well change the way American scholars think about the crisis of the other and the self coming our of French poststructuralism.
Download or read book The Work of Art written by Gérard Genette and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What art is--its very nature--is the subject of this book by one of the most distinguished continental theorists writing today. Informed by the aesthetics of Nelson Goodman and referring to a wide range of cultures, contexts, and media, The Work of Art seeks to discover, explain, and define how art exists and how it works. To this end, Gérard Genette explores the distinction between a work of art's immanence--its physical presence--and transcendence--the experience it induces. That experience may go far beyond the object itself.Genette situates art within the broad realm of human practices, extending from the fine arts of music, painting, sculpture, and literature to humbler but no less fertile fields such as haute couture and the culinary arts. His discussion touches on a rich array of examples and is bolstered by an extensive knowledge of the technology involved in producing and disseminating a work of art, regardless of whether that dissemination is by performance, reproduction, printing, or recording. Moving beyond examples, Genette proposes schemata for thinking about the different manifestations of a work of art. He also addresses the question of the artwork's duration and mutability.
Book Synopsis Patients and Practitioners by : Roy Porter
Download or read book Patients and Practitioners written by Roy Porter and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1985 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this volume provide an unusual historical perspective on the experience of illness: they try to reconstruct what being ill (from a minor ailment to fatal sickness) was like in pre-industrial society from the point of view of the sufferers themselves. The authors examine the meanings that were attached to sickness; popular medical beliefs and practices; the diffusion of popular medical knowledge; and the relations between patients and their doctors (both professional and 'fringe') seen from the patients' point of view. This is an important work, for illness and death dominated life in earlier societies to an enormous degree. Yet almost no studies of this kind have ever been carried out before, practically all previous treatments having been written from the traditional point of view of the doctor, the hospital, or medical science. It will accordingly interest a wide range of readers interested in social history as well as the history of medicine itself.
Download or read book The Body of Evidence written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When, why and how was it first believed that the corpse could reveal ‘signs’ useful for understanding the causes of death and eventually identifying those responsible for it? The Body of Evidence. Corpses and Proofs in Early Modern European Medicine, edited by Francesco Paolo de Ceglia, shows how in the late Middle Ages the dead body, which had previously rarely been questioned, became a specific object of investigation by doctors, philosophers, theologians and jurists. The volume sheds new light on the elements of continuity, but also on the effort made to liberate the semantization of the corpse from what were, broadly speaking, necromantic practices, which would eventually merge into forensic medicine.

Book Synopsis Constructing Tradition by : Andreas Kilcher
Download or read book Constructing Tradition written by Andreas Kilcher and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-10-30 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The question of constructing tradition, concepts of origin, and memory as well as techniques and practices of knowledge transmission, are central for cultures in general. In esotericism, however, such questions and techniques play an outstanding role and are widely reflected upon, in its literature. Esoteric paradigms not only understand themselves in elaborated mytho-poetical narratives as bearers of “older”, “hidden”, “higher” knowledge. They also claim their knowledge to be of a particular origin. And they claim this knowledge has been transmitted by particular (esoteric) means, media and groups. Consequently, esotericism not only involves the construction of its own tradition; it can even be understood as a specific form of tradition and transmission. The various studies of the present voume, which contains the papers of a conference held in Tübingen in July 2007, provide an overview of the most important concepts and ways of constructing tradition in esotericism.
