Collective Memory Narratives in Contemporary Culture
Starting from the central importance of memory in contemporary societies, this book encourages a transdisciplinary reflection on how the “presentification of the past” is never a simple reenactment but corresponds to the interaction between memory and cultural sensitiveness, present beliefs and needs, expectations, and forecasts for the future. It studies cultural (re)construction through collective stories, including academic debates, media narratives, collective mobilizations, state narratives of history, architectural reconstructions, and artistic expressions. It looks at how technological innovations have profoundly changed the practices of conservation and dissemination of collectiv...
The Spirituality of T. S. Eliot
In his preface, Redmond writes: “A century ago, Thomas Sterns Eliot published The Waste Land (1922), the poem that shook the staid world of Anglo-Saxon intellectuals. Eliot thought that the hope of the renaissance, after passing through the rationality of the Enlightenment and the utopia of the 19th century, was ending in a desert of “futility and desperation”. He saw the cause as culture loss. We have broken with our deepest traditions: literary, philosophical, spiritual; we have lost our humanities, our humanity [...] Eliot never lost his pessimism. But he balanced this realism with the hopefulness obvious in his later works, especially in Four Quartets, but hinted at in The Waste La...
The Resurrection as a Messianic Anticipation
The Resurrection as a Messianic Anticipation signals the road ahead for political and liberation theologies. We can and must place our hope in the resurrection even as the world around us continues to collapse, as the specter of global violence escalates, and as the body counts mount. This prescient, scholarly work faces directly the horrors of our time and uncovers a credible theological response among the survivors. It is a must-read. – Nancy Pineda-Madrid, Loyola Marymount University This powerful book calls us to rise up against death and senseless violence. It reclaims resurrection as a communal praxis of indomitable life. It cries out with the victims of history and remembers their r...
An approach to Society and Education from Hermenuetics
Este es el primer libro de la colección HERMENEUTICS, SOCIETY AND INNOVATION. Los trabajos aquí presentados se acercan a la sociedad y la educación desde los presupuestos de la Hermenética Analógica, dos ámbitos esenciales, la sociedad en lo macro, la educación en lo micro, y que se interrelacionan profundamente. Son textos escritos en búsqueda de este término medio que pueda a la vez llevar un poco más lejos y un poco más cerca los pensamientos aquí expuestos.
The Nature of Social Reality
Searle's theory of social reality is increasingly meeting with worldwide recognition, and is undoubtedly the most prominent theory of social ontology (at least in the post-analytical tradition), even if actual research in this domain is engaged in critical confrontation with it. Searle's approach continues to shape the debate, but his construction is more and more sharply dissected, both in its details and in its general assumptions. Furthermore, new perspectives, not rooted in the analytical...

Antropologia e utopia
Questo libro si sottrae alla doppia, opposta tentazione di enfatizzare o di demolire il pensiero di Marcuse. Ne tenta invece una lettura unitaria come sforzo continuo di sviluppo e aggiornamento di un’antropologia filosofica incentrata sul concetto di lavoro, elaborata da Marcuse già negli anni Trenta sulla base della coppia antitetica delle nozioni heideggeriane di autenticità e inautenticità. Tali modalità continuano ad operare fin dentro la fase più matura del pensiero di Marcuse per definire la condizione dell’esistenza umana nell’alienazione capitalistica e nella liberazione: ne scaturisce un quadro analitico di estrema attualità, soprattutto in condizioni storiche in cui la critica dell’economia politica fa fatica ad essere applicata ai nuovi contesti e a farsi promotrice di prospettive di liberazione.
