Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book weaves together Reiner Schuermanns work on art and politics, drawing on a range of the most important thinkers and poets of the twentieth century and beyond.The Place of the Symbolic gathers Reiner Schuermanns essays on the nexus of art and politics. In keeping with his translation of the destruction of metaphysics into an anarchic philosophy of practice, Schuermann develops a radical theory of the place of symbols, irreducible either to idealist theories of symbols or structuralist accounts of the symbolic. Symbols, Schuermann argues, may provide a bridge between ontological difference and politics. They resist being grasped metaphysically, in terms of representation. Instead, their understanding requires a specific way of existence: attending to the coming-to-presence of phenomena. As such, the understanding of symbols discloses a form of praxis that abandons ultimate grounds and opens onto the manifold. Alongside Schuermanns theory of symbols, the collection includes essays on the relation between metaphysics, tragedy, and technology; on the there is in poetry; as well as on judgment. Throughout these characteristically lucid interventions, Schuermanns most urgent concern remains a consideration of singular and finite practices that enact a release from universal principles. Art and politics appear here as the unworking of ultimate grounds; that is, as practices attuned to a truly groundless form of life. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: New. Through the lenses of Kant, Nietzsche, and Heidegger, this edited volume traces the development of the relation between the will and the law as self-given. Modern Philosophies of the Will explores a variety of topics including: the ontological turn in philosophy of the will; the will's playful character and the problem of teleology; the will as principle of morality as discussed by Kant, of lifeforms as discussed by Nietzsche, and of technology as discussed by Heidegger; the formal identity of legislation; and transgression of the law. This volume traces three strategies in the development of the philosophy of will from Kant to Heidegger, through rationality and irrationality of the will, the ontological turn, and law.
