Embodiment, Relation, Community
In this volume, Garnet C. Butchart shows how human communication can be understood as embodied relations and not merely as a mechanical process of transmission. Expanding on contemporary philosophies of speech and language, self and other, and community and immunity, this book challenges many common assumptions, constructs, and problems of communication theory while offering compelling new resources for future study. Human communication has long been characterized as a problem of transmitting information, or the “outward” sharing of “inner thought” through mediated channels of exchange. Butchart questions that model and the various theories to which it gives rise. Drawing from the wo...
Perpetual: Abducted
Malicious nemeses continue to plot against Matthew and Maria as they race toward destiny. Book three sets in place the pieces of a puzzling mosaic. With an extrasensory gift for finding evidence and unraveling clues, Maria focusses on the files of murdered college students. All the while, Matthew advances his studies in law and science as he struggles to solve the mystery of the most significant quantum energy quest in history. The ghost of Cracker Jack, the three dead crows, Matthew's nefarious brother, and the Jobrani Maher brothers confound the sharpest law enforcement minds. Does Chief Tanner have the answers? Is Estebanez MIA? Will Agent Flannigan fail again? Who is Alex Scofield? Who is Francis O'Connell? Who is stalking Penelope? Time is running out as the hours click away. Book three in the Perpetual series trolls through the hooking plots of the first two books. Once again, Matthew and Maria's lives encounter chaos. Perpetual Abduction reels you in toward a heart-wrenching end.
Facing the Other
Emmanuel Levinas is one of the key philosophers in the post-Heideggerian field and an increasingly central presence in contemporary debates about identity and responsibility. His work spans and encapsulates the major philosophical and ethical concerns of the twentieth century, combining the insights of a basic phenomenological training with the demands of a Jewish culture and its basis in the endless exegesis of Talmudic reading. His concerns and subjects are wide: they include the Other, the body, infinity, women, Jewish-Christian relations, Zionism and the impulses and limits of philosophical language itself. This collection explicates Levinas's major contribution to these debates, namely ...
Merleau-Ponty: A Guide for the Perplexed
Maurice Merleau-Ponty was one of the most important figures in the existential and phenomenological traditions in twentieth-century Continental philosophy. Merleau-Ponty: A Guide for the Perplexed is the ideal text for students encountering Merleau-Ponty's philosophy for the first time. The book assumes no prior knowledge of the subject, and takes the reader though the key themes in Merleau-Ponty's work, casting light on complex ideas, including - crucially - his interpretations of 'perception', 'embodiment' and 'behaviour'. Most importantly this Guide for the Perplexed offers a full and authoritative explication of Merleau-Ponty's phenomenological account of human behaviour.
Literary Theory: A Guide for the Perplexed
This Guide introduces theory in a clear, accessible way, focusing on the major approaches and theorists.
Quine: A Guide for the Perplexed
Willard Van Orman Quine is one of the most influential analytic philosophers of the latter half of the twentieth century. No serious student of modern analytic philosophy can afford to ignore Quine's work. Yet there is no doubt that it presents a considerable challenge. The book offers clear explication and analysis of Quine's writings and ideas in all those areas of philosophy to which he contributed (except technical matters in logic). Quine's work is set in its intellectual context, illuminating his connections to Russell, Carnap and logical positivism. Detailed attention is paid to Word and Object, Quine's seminal text, and to his important theories on the nature of truth, knowledge and reality. This text presents an account of Quine's philosophy as a unified whole, identifying and exploring the themes and approaches common to his seemingly disparate concerns, and showing this to be the key to understanding fully the work of this major modern thinker.
