Paperback. Condizione: Good. [From the library of noted scholar William E. Connolly.] Softcover. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Scattered underlining and markings by Connolly. "William E. Connolly is Krieger-Eisenhower Professor in the political science department at Hopkins where he teaches political theory. His early book, The Terms of Political Discourse, was awarded the Benjamin Lippincott Award in 1999 as 'a work of exceptional quality that is still considered significant at least 15 years after publication.' In a poll of American political theorists published in PS in 2010, he was ranked the fourth most influential political theorist in America over the last twenty years, after Rawls, Habermas, and Foucault. His work focuses on the issues of democratic pluralism, capitalism, inequality, fascism, and bumpy intersections between capitalism and planetary amplifiers in climate change." - Johns Hopkins University.

Ships same or next day (weekdays and Saturdays)! ABOUT: Alchemy of the Word is a study of the literary, philosophical, and cultural ramifications of Cabala during the Renaissance. Important intellectual figures from 1490 to 1690 are considered, including Agrippa, Dee, Spenser, Shakespeare, Browne, and Milton; Cabala's more recent impact is also discussed. Cabala, a hermeneutic style of Biblical commentary of Jewish origin, is based on the notion that, along with an inscribed Decalogue, Moses received a secret, oral supplement that provides a symbolic, allegorical, and moral qualification of the literal law of religion. Building on the work of Gershom Scholem, Joseph Blau, Harold Bloom, Francois Secret, Michel de Certeau, and Arthur Waite, Beitchman takes a fresh look at the "mystical" text through the lens of postmodernist theory. In a model developed from Deleuze-Guattari's "nomadology" to explore issues related to the Zohar, he shows that Cabala was a deconstruction of Renaissance authority. Like deconstruction, Cabala presents familiar material from novel and sometimes provocative perspectives. It allows space for modifiability, tolerance and humanity, by widening the margins between the letter of the law and the demands of an existence whose rules were so rapidly changing.
Trade Paperback. Condizione: New. Virilio himself referred to his 1980 work The Aesthetics of Disappearanceas a 'juncture' in his thinking, one at which he brought his focus onto thelogistics of perception -- a logistics he would soon come to refer to as the 'visionmachine.' If Speed and Politics established Virilio as the inaugural -- and stillconsummate -- theorist of 'dromology' (the theory of speed and the society itdefines), The Aesthetics of Disappearance introduced his understanding of'picnolepsy' -- the epileptic state of consciousness produced by speed, or rather, the consciousness invented by the subject through its very absence: the gaps, glitches, and speed bumps lacing through and defining it. Speed and Politics definedthe society of speed; The Aesthetics of Disappearance defines what it feels like tolive in the society of speed.'I always write with images,' Virilio has claimed, andthis statement is nowhere better illustrated than with The Aesthetics ofDisappearance. Moving from the movie theater to the freeway, and from CraigBreedlove's attainment of terrifying speed in a rocket-power car to the immobilityof Howard Hughes in his dark room atop the Desert Inn, Virilio himself jump cutsfrom such disparate reference points as Fred Astaire, Franz Liszt, and Adolf Loos toDostoyevsky, Paul Morand, and Aldous Huxley. In its extension of the 'aesthetics ofdisappearance' to war, film, and politics, this book paved the way to Virilio'sfollow-up: the celebrated study, War and Cinema.This edition features a newintroduction by Jonathan Crary, one of the leading theorists of modern visualculture.Foreign Agents seriesDistributed for Semiotext(e) Virilio introduces his understanding of 'picnolepsy'--the epileptic state of consciousness produced by speed.
