JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Scientific Explanation and Religious Belief:
Book SynopsisThe science-and-religion dialogue has now become an established part of the wider cultural debate about the respective roles of science and religion within democratic societies. Typically, science has usually been identified with the sphere of reason, fact and explanation, whereas religion has been located within the realm of experience, value and interpretation. But religions also prescribe beliefs and support these with metaphysical accounts of the self, world and God. Such belief systems are both identity-forming and comprehensive. But the pluralism of world-views within modern liberal democracies and methodological naturalism in the sciences would seem to require believers to suspend these deeply-held beliefs when engaged in public discourse or scientific inquiry. This raises a number of interesting philosophical and practical issues which this volume seeks to address. As a reflection on the matrix of science, religion and politics, this volume constitutes a major contribution to an important, but neglected topic. This book will open up new lines of research and communication not only among philosophers, scientists and theologians, but for all those interested in the larger cultural conversation about the relationship between science and religion.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Objektive Ideen: Untersuchungen zum Verhältnis
Book SynopsisHolger Gutschmidt versammelt in diesem Band mehrere Untersuchungen zur Konzeption der Idee und ihrer Beziehung zum Begründungsbegriff in ausgewählten Theorien des 17. Jahrhunderts. Sein Hauptaugenmerk liegt auf der Philosophie René Descartes', der den Ideenbegriff in die neuzeitliche Erkenntnistheorie einführt. Weitere Kapitel widmet er Antoine Arnauld sowie der Logik von Port Royal, Spinoza und schließlich Leibniz. Die Untersuchung der Ideenkonzeption vor dem Hintergrund ihrer Funktion in den jeweiligen Theorien der Erkenntnis und der Begründung führt zu einer Reihe von neuen Forschungsresultaten und Korrekturen der bisherigen Forschungssituation. Der Autor beschäftigt sich unter anderem mit dem Thema der von Descartes eingeführten sogenannten "objektiven Ideen", dem Verhältnis von Idee und Begriff, der Seinsart von Ideen, der Funktion der Idee von Gott, dem direkten Realismus.

Book SynopsisThe moment is a recurring motif in European lyric poetry and can refer to such diverse concepts as the moment of falling in love, the ability to capture the right moment, or a shocking experience. The author examines the moment as a figure of thought and as a paradigm of modern consciousness by focusing on its presence in Friedrich Schlegel''s pre-romantic poetics of the fragment which develops Immanuel Kant''s aesthetics. Close readings of poems by the great European poets Giacomo Leopardi, Charles Baudelaire, and Rainer Maria Rilke extend the structural components of the moment as an aesthetic category. The poets'' aesthetic reflections are taken into consideration as well as eminent poems on the moment, such as L''infinito, Ã une passante or the Sonette an Orpheus.

Peeters Publishers Huysmans, a Cote Et Au-dela
Book SynopsisSi la critique contemporaine connait bien le parcours de Joris-Karl Huysmans, ecrivain qui epouse d'abord la cause naturaliste avant de s'en ecarter pour s'orienter vers une quete plus personnelle, les "a cotes" de l'oeuvre restent encore dans l'ombre: poemes en prose, carnets intimes, correspondance, manuscrits inacheves, critiques d'art, etc. Le present ouvrage, qui rassemble les actes d'un colloque tenu a Cerisy l'ete 1998, tente de rendre a Huysmans la diversite et la richesse qui lui reviennent en proposant a la fois de nouvelles interpretations des textes les plus connus, ainsi qu'une exploration des marges. Le moment semble en effet venu de remettre en question une image un peu trop figee de l'oeuvre pour proposer d'autres voies de recherches, un "au-dela" qui incite a la voir sous un jour nouveau, en tenant notamment compte des textes retrouves. Nouveaux regards, nouvelles lectures reunissent ainsi specialistes internationaux, amateurs et curieux, dans un echange fecond d'idees et de perspectives.

Peeters Publishers Aesthetics as a Religious Factor in Eastern and
Book SynopsisThis volume contains selected papers of a conference in 2004 at Utrecht University on aesthetics as a religious factor in Eastern and Western Christianity. They discuss the role of aesthetics in the presentation and expression of Christian faith in Catholic and Orthodox tradition. During its history Christianity has produced many works of art: church architecture, iconography, painting, music and literary texts. And in Orthodoxy beauty has always been the main form of religious expression, more than verbal presentation of Christian teaching, which is embedded in the aesthetic context of liturgy. In Christian theology beauty has often been seen as a form of divine revelation, related to the mystery of incarnation. The relation between aesthetics and religious belief has acquired new relevance in our secularised world. Today the visible products of Catholic and Orthodox aesthetics are for many people the main means through which they come into contact with Christianity and many people without affinity to religion are attracted by the beauty of Christian art, inside and outside the church. In modern religious studies the experience of beauty is recognised as a factor in explaining religious feelings. The papers are divided in four sections: 1. Comparative aspects of Orthodox and Catholic aesthetics, 2. Religious aesthetics in Russian literary culture, 3. Applied aesthetics in church art, 4. Art-theoretical, ideological and religious-philosophical aspects.

Leuven University Press Minor Aesthetics: The Photographic Work of Marcel
Book SynopsisNew perspectives on Belgian Surrealism and the photographic practices of Marcel Mariën. Marcel Mariën (1920–1993) was a key figure of Belgian post-war Surrealism. He is widely acknowledged for his landmark work on Belgian Surrealism and his collaboration with future Situationists like Guy-Ernest Debord in his journal ‘Les Lèvres nues’. Nevertheless, Mariën’s texts, collages, photographs, film, and (art?) objects have to date remained understudied. This is the first volume devoted to Mariën's photographic work. Through a series of close readings, Mieke Bleyen connects the collage and photographic practices of Mariën with his wider oeuvre, particularly with his archival and editorial activities. By applying Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari's concept of the ‘minor’, this book proposes an alternative reading of Mariën’s anti-aesthetics and focuses on the affective range of his work. The figure of Mariën also serves as a case study that offers new perspectives on Belgian Surrealism's relation to mainstream Surrealism and the role of photography within Surrealism. This volume, moreover, raises a critique on ‘major’ art history's conception of time as linear progression and argues instead for twisted and extended temporalities in the case of Marcel Mariën. With previously unpublished images from Mariën's private archive. This publication is GPRC-labeled (Guaranteed Peer-Reviewed Content).Trade ReviewKU Leuven-;based scholar Mieke Bleyen succeeds in integrating several important achievements in 'Minor Aesthetics: The Photographic Work of Marcel Mariën'. Within the first study dedicated to the photographic practice of a prolific Belgian Surrealist (1920-;1993), she raises a number of pertinent questions, such as the importance of queer studies and feminist criticism for a better understanding of Surrealist visual arts.Additionally, as the title suggests, Bleyen develops a strong theoretical argument through the notion of minor literature, grounded in the writings of French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, to unpack different pressing issues in the scholarship concerned with art history, including its problematic insistence on interpretation and linear progression. Bleyen combines rigorous archival research with a solid critical enquiry to put forward a rich and referential volume that can be engaged with as a valuable source of information and otherwise inaccessible visual material, as well as a welcome instance of a more inclusive approach to the work that is not easily fitted in the existing art historical categories. Jelena Stojkovic (2015): Minor aesthetics: the photographic work of Marcel Mariën, Visual Studies, DOI: 10.1080/1472586X.2015.1024519'There’s a tiny handful of things on Mariën in English. Mieke Bleyen’s 'Minor Aesthetics: The Photographic Work of Marcel Mariën' is particularly helpful. She reads him in a Deleuzian vein as a ‘minor’ artist, spilling out and past the coherent subjectivities of the poet or the artist.'McKenzie Wark, Public Seminar, January 27, 2016Table of ContentsAcknowledgements Prologue Part 1 Towards a Minor Photography Minor Literature Deterritorialization Politicization Collectivization The people to come A canon of minor masters and other reflections on the minor Deleuze and Guattari’s Cartography of Art A Minor History of Art?
