Get Over Yourself

Nietzsche for Our Times

Moral Blindness

The Loss of Sensitivity in Liquid Modernity

de Zygmunt Bauman, Leonidas Donskis ...

Evil is not confined to war or to circumstances in which people are acting under extreme duress. Today it more frequently reveals itself in the everyday insensitivity to the suffering of others, in the inability or refusal to understand them and in the casual turning away of one’s ethical gaze. Evil and moral blindness lurk in what we take as normality and in the triviality and banality of ... Leer más

French philosopher Gilles Deleuze is known as a thinker of creation, joyous affirmation, and rhizomatic assemblages. In this short book, Andrew Culp polemically argues that this once-radical canon of joy has lost its resistance to the present.

Ruins of Modernity

de Julia Adams, George Steinmetz ...

Rather, looking at ruins, writing about them, and representing them are acts framed by a long tradition. This unique interdisciplinary collection traces discourses about and representations of ruins from a richly contextualized ... Leer más
