Book Synopsis On Literature and Philosophy by : Naguib Mahfouz
Download or read book On Literature and Philosophy written by Naguib Mahfouz and published by Gingko Library. This book was released on 2015-11-15 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Naguib Mahfouz is one of the most important writers in contemporary Arabic literature. Winner of the Nobel Prize in 1988 (the only Arab writer to win the prize thus far), his novels helped bring Arabic literature onto the international stage. Far fewer people know his nonfiction works, however—a gap that this book fills. Bringing together Mahfouz’s early nonfiction writings (most penned during the 1930s) which have not previously been available in English, this volume offers a rare glimpse into the early development of the renowned author. As these pieces show, Mahfouz was deeply interested in literature and philosophy, and his early writings engage with the origins of philosophy, its development and place in the history of thought, as well its meaning writ large. In his literary essays, he discusses a wide range of authors, from Anton Chekov to his own Arab contemporaries like Taha Hussein. He also ventures into a host of important contemporary issues, including science and modernity, the growing movement for women’s rights in the Arab world, and emerging ideologies like socialism—all of which outline the growing challenges to traditional modes of living that we saw all around him. Together, these essays offer a fascinating window not just into the mind of Mahfouz himself but the changing landscape of Egypt during that time, from the development of Islam to the struggles between tradition, modernity, and the influences of the West.

Book Synopsis Philosophical Trends in the Contemporary World by : Michele Federico Sciacca
Download or read book Philosophical Trends in the Contemporary World written by Michele Federico Sciacca and published by Irvington Publishers. This book was released on 1964 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " "Previously published in Italian, Spanish and German, this study of contemporary philosophical thought now brings to English-speaking people a panoramic view demonstrating the "constant dynamic movement between the act of philosophical reflection and the history of philosophy." Throughout Sciacca's objective definition of all trends in contemporary Western thought runs his personal conviction that the principle of being is absent in modern philosophy. The author maintains that the humanistic quality of philosophy has given way to science so that philosophy becomes a sterile, quasi-technical discipline. In a clear effective manner he attempts to show humanism's proper place in the history of philosophy. Sciacca's polemical spirit against all movements which have departed from the metaphysical tenets that he wishes to see re-established is evident in his criticism of American philosophy. The translator, Attilio M. Salerno, warns the reader that he "may agree or disagree with Professor Sciacca's treatment of American thought; to some of us it may appear not only too astringent but even somewhat unfair. Be that as it may, the intentions if this author are constructive rather than destructive, for he clearly wishes to uphold, and possibly preserve, the philosophical and religious patrimony characterizing our Western civilization."Sciacca explores both narrow and wide paths leading to our contemporary philosophic milieu, offering analyses of historicism, relativism, phenomenology, existentialism, idealism, realism, naturalism, and neo-Scholasticism in the works of Nietzsche, Bergson, Unamuno, Croce, Kierkegaard, Spengler, Cassirer, Gasset, Husserl, Heidegger, Berdyaev, Barth, Marcel, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty, Benda, whitehead, Pastore, Maritain and many others, including Latin American philosophers."- Publisher

Book Synopsis Philosophy and Literary Modernism by : Robert P. McParland
Download or read book Philosophy and Literary Modernism written by Robert P. McParland and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-01 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophy and Literary Modernism probes the relationship of authors with the thought of their time. The authors studied here include Conrad, Eliot, Faulkner, Forster, Hemingway, Hesse, Kafka, Joyce, Lawrence, Williams, and Woolf, among others. Literary modernism engaged with explorations of literary form, language, ways of knowing the world, identity, commitment, chance, truth, and beauty. The book considers how writers participated in the intellectual spirit of their time and with the thought of philosophers like Henri Bergson, G.E. Moore, Bertrand Russell, Alfred North Whitehead, and Ludwig Wittgenstein.
Book Synopsis Hegel and Modern Society by : Charles Taylor
Download or read book Hegel and Modern Society written by Charles Taylor and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This rich study explores the elements of Hegel's social and political thought that are most relevant to our society today. Combating the prevailing post-World War II stereotype of Hegel as a proto-fascist, Charles Taylor argues that Hegel aimed not to deny the rights of individuality but to synthesise them with the intrinsic good of community membership. Hegel's goal of a society of free individuals whose social activity is expressive of who they are seems an even more distant goal now, and Taylor's discussion has renewed relevance for our increasingly globalised and industrialised society. This classic work is presented in a fresh series livery for the twenty-first century with a specially commissioned new preface written by Frederick Neuhouser.

It uses the problem of cognitive value to explore: literature’s contribution to ethical life literature’s ability to engage in social and political critique the role narrative plays in opening up possibilities of moral, aesthetic, experience and selfhood This remarkable volume will attract the attention of both literature and philosophy scholars with its statement of the various ways that literature and life take an interest in one another.
