Paperback. Condition: New. EXAMINING PHILOSOPHY ITSELF One of the most distinctive features of philosophy is self-reflection. Philosophers are not only concerned with metaphysical, epistemological, conceptual, ethical, and aesthetic issues of things around us, they also pay serious attention to the nature, value, methods, and de…velopment of philosophy itself. This book examines some of the most important metaphilosophical issues: Is philosophy progressive? Are metaphysical claims meaningful? What is the aim of philosophy? Should analytic metaphysics be replaced by naturalised metaphysics? What is the prospect of a digital approach to philosophy of science? Can poetry play a substantial role in philosophy? Examining Philosophy Itself will be of interest to researchers and advanced students in philosophy.

Paperback. Condition: New. Today, the People's Republic of China is North Korea's only ally on the world stage, a tightly knit relationship that goes back decades. Both countries portray their partnership as one of "brotherly affection" based on shared political ideals-an alliance "as tight as lips to teeth"-even though relation…s have deteriorated in recent years due to China's ascendance and North Korea's intransigence.In A Misunderstood Friendship, leading diplomatic historians Zhihua Shen and Yafeng Xia draw on previously untapped primary source materials revealing tensions and rivalries to offer a unique account of the China-North Korea relationship. They unravel the twists and turns in high-level diplomacy between China and North Korea from the late 1940s to the death of Mao Zedong in 1976. Based on unprecedented access to Chinese government documents, Soviet and Eastern European archives, and in-depth interviews with former Chinese diplomats and North Korean defectors, Shen and Xia reveal that the tensions that currently plague the alliance between the two countries have been present from the very beginning of the relationship. They significantly revise existing narratives of the Korean War, China's postwar aid to North Korea, Kim Il-sung's ideological and strategic thinking, North Korea's relations with the Soviet Union, and the importance of the Sino-U.S. rapprochement, among other issues. A Misunderstood Friendship adds new depth to our understanding of one of the most secretive and significant relationships of the Cold War, with increasing relevance to international affairs today.

sonst. Bücher. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Wie beeinflusst der Zufall das Werk Das Wichtigste beim Malen sei es, den Kopf auszuschalten, sich führen zu lassen, sagt die deutsch-chinesische Malerin Yafeng Duan, die 1973 in Hebei geboren wurde und heute in Berlin lebt. Wie beteiligen sich die Farben, wie verhalten sich Leinwand und P…apier, wohin führt der Pinsel die Hand Leicht und dicht, hell und dunkel, innere und äußere Welt, breiter Pinselduktus und feine Linien in der Tradition der Tuschmalerei, Widerstand und Fluss, massive Flächen und schwebende Farben. Das alles entspreche zudem, so Duan weiter, dem Takt des Ein- und Ausatmens. Hinzu tritt der Zufall, der sich ohne esoterische Konnotationen ins Spiel bringen lässt, wie etwa im Fall der Kompositionstechnik von John Cage, der das »I Ging« als strukturbildendes Prinzip heranzog. Die Formvorstellungen sind daher stets auch mit Verfahrensfragen verknüpft: Wie beeinflusst der Zufall das Werk, wieviel Zufall tut diesem gut Dem Taoismus entstammend, werden dann fast zwangsläufig die Prinzipien Yin und Yang aufgerufen. Ursprünglich standen diese Begriffe für die »Dunkelheit am Südufer des Flusses«, für einen »schattigen Ort« (Yin) beziehungsweise, konträr dazu, für das »Strahlen der Sonne, die sonnige Anhöhe auf der Südseite der Berge« (Yang). Zu Yafeng Duans abstrakter Malerei heißt es denn auch, sie schaffe Räume, die sich erst bei längerer Betrachtung aufschließen lassen, nicht alle würden bestehen bleiben, manche sich vielmehr verformen oder gar ganz auflösen.Ausstellung:Galerie Michael Janssen, Berlin, 27/1 18/3/2023 32 pp. Englisch, Deutsch.
