Softcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. "Intermedialities: Philosophy, Arts, Politics," edited by Henk Oosterling and Ewa Plonowska Ziarek, presents a softcover edition in Very Good condition. The covers exhibit only light shelf wear, maintaining their great shape. The binding is square and tight, ensuring the durability of the volume. While an organization stamp is neatly marked out on the title page, the interior pages remain clean and unmarked.This comprehensive collection brings together an international and interdisciplinary group of scholars to delve into the burgeoning field of 'intermedialities.' The concept emphasizes the necessity of situating philosophical and political debates on social relations within diverse contexts, including media theories, avant-garde artistic practices, continental philosophy, feminism, and political theory.The 'intermedial' approach focuses on the epistemological, ethical, and political status of 'being-in-between,' rather than shared identities. The book explores new modes of being in common that transcend national boundaries, critiques new forms of domination, and seeks emancipatory possibilities.Investigating engagements between already constituted positions and the interval, antagonism, and differences that form and decenter these positions, "Intermedialities" offers a conception of community based on difference, exposure, and interaction with others.From philosophical conceptuality to artistic practices, from the political circulation of money and power to the operation of new technologies, the investigations of 'in-betweenness' range across various mediums and heterogeneous 'sites' of inquiry. The crucial role of embodiment in creative thought and collective acting is also explored, highlighting the body as a mediating instance between different domains.As the intersections between media, materiality, art, philosophy, and politics suggest, "Intermedialities" provides new avenues for rethinking the relations among arts, politics, and science.Rest assured, this valuable book will be carefully packaged for shipment to protect it from the elements.

Paperback. Condition: New. What kind of challenge does sexual and racial difference pose for postmodern ethics? What is the relation between ethical obligation and feminist interpretations of embodiment, passion, and eros? How can we negotiate between ethical responsibility for the Other and democratic struggles against domination, injustice, and inequality, on the one hand, and internal conflicts within the subject, on the other? What are the implications of postmodern ethics for the agonistic politics of radical democracy? We cannot address such questions, Ziarek argues, without putting into dialogue discourses that have hitherto been segregated: postmodern ethics, feminism, race theory, and the idea of radical democracy. Addressing a constellation of diverse thinkers-including Emmanuel Levinas, Patricia Williams, Jean-François Lyotard, Michel Foucault, Frantz Fanon, Julia Kristeva, and Luce Irigaray-the author proposes a new conception of ethics, an ethics of dissensus that rethinks the relation between freedom and obligation in a double context of embodiment and antagonism. As the unavoidable yet productive dissonance among antagonism, freedom, and obligation suggests, the ethics of dissensus seeks not to transcend politics but to articulate the difficult role of responsibility and freedom in democratic struggles against racist and sexist oppression. Opposing the conservative political work of privatized moral discourse that reduces social antagonism to the apolitical experience of good and evil, the ethics of dissensus calls into question not only the depoliticized subject of ethics but also the disembodied notions of citizenship, rights, and democratic community.

Paperback. Condition: New. Revisits, reassesses, and reclaims the legacy of May '68 in light of our present cultural and historical emergency.Continental Theory Buffalo is the inaugural volume of the Humanities to the Rescue book series, a public humanities project dedicated to discussing the role of the arts and humanities today. This book is a collaborative act of humanistic renewal that builds on the transcontinental legacy of May 1968 to offer insightful readings of the cultural (d)evolution of the last fifty years. The volume contributors revisit, reclaim and reassess the "revolutionary" legacy of May 1968 in light of the urgency of the present and the future. Their essays are effective illustrations of the potential of such interpretive traditions as philosophy, literature and cultural criticism to run interference with (and offer alternatives to) the instrumentalist logic and predatory structures that are reducing the world to a collection of quantifiable and tradeable resources. The book will be of interest to cultural historians and theorists, media studies scholars, political scientists, and students of French and Francophone literature and culture on both sides of the Atlantic.This book is freely available in an open access edition thanks to the generous support of the Humanities Institute at the University at Buffalo, State University of New York. It can also be found in the SUNY Open Access Repository.

Paperback or Softback. Condition: New. Continental Theory Buffalo: Transatlantic Crossroads of a Critical Insurrection. Book.

Paperback. Condition: New. Rosalyn Diprose and Ewa Ziarek provide a reconfiguration of Hannah Arendt's philosophy of natality from the perspective of biopolitical and feminist theory. They show us that Arendt provides new ways of contesting biopolitical threats to human plurality and the threat of biopolitics - along with sexism, racism and political theology - to women's reproductive agency. They extend Arendt's account of collective political action to include political hospitality, responsibility and story-telling as ways of countering the harms of biopower. Diprose and Ziarek give us an insightful account of the political ontology of Hannah Arendt and form new dialogues between her and major 20th- and 21st-century thinkers including Foucault, Agamben, Nancy, Kristeva, Esposito, Derrida, Levinas and Cavarero.
