The Question of Style in Philosophy and the Arts

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Eck, Caroline / McAllister, James / Vall, Renee Van De, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries witnessed a change in the perception of the arts and of philosophy, which were formerly regarded as practices possessing a proper method, but then came to be seen as practices allowing the pursuit of alternative styles. The essays in this book examine the circumstances, features, and consequences of this historical transition, exploring in particular new aspects and instances of the interrelatedness of content and its formal representation in both the arts and philosophy.

The Secular Scripture: A Study of the Structure of Romance

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Frye, Northrop, PUBLISHER: Harvard University Press, Northrop Frye's thinking has had a pervasive impact on contemporary interpretations of our literary and cultural heritage. In his "Anatomy of Criticism," a landmark in the history of modern critical theory, he demonstrated his genius for mapping out the realm of imaginative creation. In "The Secular Scripture" he turns again to the task of establishing a broad theoretical framework, bringing to bear his extraordinary command of the whole range of literature from antiquity to the present. Romance, a mode of literature trafficking in such plot elements as mistaken identity, shipwrecks, magic potions, the rescue of maidens in distress, has tended to be regarded as hardly deserving of serious consideration; critics praise other aspects of the "Odyssey," "The Faerie Queene," Shakespeare's last plays, and Scott's "Waverley" novels, for example, while forgiving the authors' indulgence in childishly romantic plots. Frye, however, discerns in the innumerable romantic narratives of the Western tradition an imaginative universe stretching from an idyllic world to a demonic one, and a pattern of action taking the form of a cyclical descent into and ascent out of the demonic realm. Romance as a whole is thus seen as forming an integrated vision of the world, a "secular scripture" whose hero is man, paralleling the sacred scripture whose hero is God. The clarity of Northrop Frye's perception, the scope and suggestiveness of his conceptualizing, the wit and grace of his style, have won him universal admiration.

The Orthodox Corruption of Scripture: The Effect of Early

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ehrman, Bart D., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, The victors not only write the history, they also reproduce the texts. In a study that explores the close relationship between the social history of early Christianity and the textual tradition of the emerging New Testament, Ehrman examines how early struggles between Christian "heresy" and "orthodoxy" affected the transmission of the documents over which, in part, the debates were waged. His thesis is that proto-orthodox scribes of the second and third centuries occasionally altered their sacred texts for polemical reasons--for example, to oppose adoptionists like the Ebionites, who claimed that Christ was a man but not God, or docetists like Marcion, who claimed that he was God but not a man, or Gnostics like the Ptolemaeans, who claimed that he was two beings, one divine and one human. Ehrman's thorough and incisive analysis makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the social and intellectual history of early Christianity and raises intriguing questions about the relationship of readers to their texts, especially in an age when scribes could transform the documents they reproduced to make them say what they were already thought to mean, effecting thereby the orthodox corruption of Scripture.

Triumph of Democracy and the Eclipse of the West

Triumph of Democracy and the Eclipse of the West: This book explores the paradox of the worldwide spread of democracy and capitalism in an era of Western decline. The rest is overtaking the West as Samuel Huntington predicted, but because it is adopting Western institutions. The emerging global order offers unprecedented opportunities for the expansion of peace, prosperity, and freedom. Yet this is not the 'end of history', but the beginning of a post-Western future for the democratic project. The major conflicts of the future will occur between the established democracies of the West and emerging democracies in the developing world as they seek the benefits and recognition associated with membership of the democratic community. This 'clash of democratizations' will define world politics.

It aims to offer a comprehensive evaluation of Broome's wide-ranging and far-reaching philosophical works over the past thirty years. The volume comprises two parts. The first part is focused on Broome's work on the theory of value, as exemplified in his books Weighing Goods, Weighing Lives, Economics out of Economics, andClimate Matters.

This volume also includes a piece by Broome on his intellectual history to date.

The Advent of Christ: Scripture Reflections to Prepare for

Perhaps the Christmas story has become almost too familiar. A virgin giving birth. A child laid in a manger. Shepherds greeted by angels. The Christmas story has become so familiar that the profound,even shocking,nature of the incarnation might be overlooked. But what if we had never heard the story before? What if we were hearing it for the first time,like the first-century Jews? These events certainly would not be taken for granted—they would signal something new: the dawning of the long-awaited M

The Aesthetic Paths of Philosophy: Presentation in

This book examines the ways that Heidegger,Lacoue-Labarthe,and Nancy adopt and reconfigure the Kantian understanding of aesthetic presentation. In Kant,aesthetic presentation is understood in a technical sense as a specific mode of experience within a typology of different spheres of experience. This study argues that Heidegger,Lacoue-Labarthe,and Nancy generalize the elements of this specific mode of experience so that the aesthetic attitude and the vocabulary used by Kant to describe it are

Triumph of the Egg and Other Stories

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Anderson, Sherwood, PUBLISHER: Digireads.com, Sherwood Anderson () was a novelist and short story writer who has been recognized as one of the most innovative and important American authors of his time. He was a prolific writer, publishing seven novels and myriad collections of essays, memoirs, poetry and short stories. Anderson wrote in a characteristically simple prose style, and his unconventional techniques caused him to at first be written off. However, his unique exploration of the unconscious and its effect on behavior created very vulnerable, human characters that evoke sympathy from readers. "Triumph of the Egg and Other Stories" is a collection of fifteen stories published in . It includes some of his greatest works: "The Egg," a story about the struggle to find success and happiness in the American Midwest, "I'm a Fool," about a young man who sabotages his chance at love because of his own feelings of inferiority, and "I Want to Know Why," about the confusion and desperation felt by a boy entering adulthood.
