Palgrave MacMillan UK The End of Russian Philosophy Tradition and Transition at the Turn of the 21st Century
Book SynopsisThe End of Russian Philosophy describes and evaluates the troubled state of Russian philosophical thought in the post-Soviet decades. The book suggests that in order to revive philosophy as a universal, professional discipline in Russia, it may be necessary for Russian philosophy to first do away with the messianic traditions of the 19th century.Trade Review“Alyssa DeBlasio’s well-researched monograph addresses the state of philosophy in contemporary Russia. … appeals more to those with an interest in the state of post-Soviet philosophy, but can also be read by those interested in the general history of Russian philosophy or select contemporary Russian philosophers … . With its extensive scope, bibliographical wealth, and detailed notes, The End of Russian Philosophy provides an excellent assessment of current (and long-standing) dynamics in the field of Russian philosophy.” (Benjamin Jens, Slavic and East European Journal, Vol. 60 (4), 2016)Table of ContentsAcknowledgements Remarks on Transliteration and Translation List of Figures 1.

Bloomsbury Publishing PLC The Bloomsbury Companion to Arendt
Book SynopsisHannah Arendt's (1906-1975) writings, both in public magazines and in her important books, are still widely studied today. She made original contributions in political thinking that still astound readers and critics alike. The subject of several films and numerous books, colloquia, and newspaper articles, Arendt remains a touchstone in innumerable debates about the use of violence in politics, the responsibility one has under dictatorships and totalitarianism, and how to combat the repetition of the horrors of the past. The Bloomsbury Companion to Arendt offers the definitive guide to her writings and ideas, her influences and commentators, as well as the reasons for her lasting significance, with 66 original essays taking up in accessible terms the myriad ways in which one can take up her work and her continuing importance. These essays, written by an international set of her best readers and commentators, provides a comprehensive coverage of her life and the contexts in which her worTrade ReviewThis volume explores many of the “thought trains” central to Arendt’s understanding of modernity. Essays on dozens of topics invite readers to think about politics, birth, truth, and power in light of Arendt’s profound reflections on those topics. While Arendt found “truth” elusive, she thought we were obliged to “think about what we are doing”, the authors of these essays help us to shoulder that task. * Johanna Meehan, McCay-Casady Professor of Humanities, Grinnell College, USA *Diverse, accessible, and highly impressive in its scope, this compelling volume will doubtless become essential reading both for established scholars of Arendt’s work and for new readers. Effectively showcasing the urgency and vitality of Arendt’s writings, it strikes the perfect balance between enriching current conversations and presenting new directions for Arendt scholarship. * Danielle Sands, Lecturer in Comparative Literature and Thought, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK *Table of ContentsAcknowledgments Notes on contributors Editor’s Introduction, Peter Gratton and Yasemin Sari Part I: Sources, Influences, and Encounters 1.

He is the editor of The Continental Philosophy of Film Reader (Bloomsbury, forthcoming).Trade ReviewOverall, the anthology helps effectively dispel the notion that Foucault might be, as he once famously said, "simply Nietzschean" … [One] hopes that the anthology will generate a new wave of scholarship with a sustained focus on the relationship between Nietzsche and Foucault, no longer an uncharted territory but nevertheless a field for many future discoveries. * Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews *Foucault is, in his own words, ‘simply Nietzschean’ but his relation to Nietzsche is rarely simple. This welcome volume explores complexities and tensions in this relationship across issues ranging from genealogy, truth and knowledge to religion, care of the self and power in order to interrogate the similarities and differences between their philosophical projects. * David Owen, Professor of Social and Political Philosophy, University of Southampton, UK *Table of ContentsAcknowledgments Introduction Alan Rosenberg (Queens College) and Joseph Westfall (University of Houston-Downtown) 1 'Foucault, Nietzsche and the History of Truth' Paul Patton (UNSW Australia) 2 'Nietzsche and Foucault’s “Will to Know”' Alan D.

Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Ethics after Wittgenstein
Book SynopsisWhat does it mean for ethics to say, as Wittgenstein did, that philosophy leaves everything as it is? Though clearly absorbed with ethical questions throughout his life and work, Wittgenstein''s remarks about the subject do not easily lend themselves to summation or theorizing. Although many moral philosophers cite the influence or inspiration of Wittgenstein, there is little agreement about precisely what it means to do ethics in the light of Wittgenstein. Ethics after Wittgenstein brings together an international cohort of leading scholars in the field to address this problem. The chapters advance a conception of philosophical ethics characterized by an attention to detail, meaning and importance which itself makes ethical demands on its practitioners. Working in conversation with literature and film, engaging deeply with anthropology and critical theory, and addressing contemporary problems from racialized sexual violence against women to the Islamic State,Trade ReviewAn enormously stimulating and valuable collection. The wide-ranging contributions bring out how philosophers, drawing on Wittgenstein's thought, can open up new directions for exploration in ethics. * Cora Diamond, University Professor and Kenan Professor of Philosophy, Emerita, University of Virginia, USA *Table of ContentsPreface Introduction: Doing Ethics after Wittgenstein, Richard Amesbury and Hartmut von Sass Part I.

Bloomsbury Publishing (UK) The Bloomsbury Companion to Bertrand Russell
Book SynopsisRussell Wahl is Professor of Philosophy at Idaho State University, USA.Trade ReviewThis Companion is a most welcome guide, both to the thought of Bertrand Russell himself, and also to the evolving ?elds of Russell scholarship and the history of analytic philosophy, at the points where the two intersect … Every last essay is top-notch, and adds something new and interesting to our understanding of Russell’s thought. * Russell: the Journal of Bertrand Russell Studies *The Bloomsbury Companion to Bertrand Russell is about both Bertrand Russell and his continuing influence. It contains enough history to situate the reader in Russell’s intellectual era, but also enough contemporary philosophy to situate Russell in ours. There are chapters on Russell’s connections to British idealism, Meinongianism, Wittegenstein, logical positivism and pragmatism. There are also chapters on contemporary issues in logic, epistemology, ethics, the philosophy of mind and the philosophy of language. Anyone interested in contemporary debates surrounding the resurgence of neutral monism, logicism, foundationalism and error theory will be richly rewarded by revisiting Russell through this volume. Russell Wahl and his contributors are to be commended for showing us why Russell remains such a towering figure in philosophy today. * Andrew Irvine, Head of Economics, Philosophy and Political Science, University of British Columbia Okanagan, Canada *An excellent resource. Adroitly edited, the volume combines luminous discussions of central topics in Russell scholarship with insightful explorations of less frequently discussed topics. It manages to showcase the vibrant state of Russell scholarship while also containing much that will be of interest to the general philosophical reader. * Ian Proops, Professor of Philosophy, The University of Texas at Austin, USA *The volume is admirably produced: well-researched, well-balanced and well-written. It contributes significantly to our understanding of one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century . . . it effectively summarizes practically every major line of investigation in recent Russell studies. I personally enjoyed reading the volume, including those chapters on which I made polemical remarks, and learned a lot from it. As readable as it is informative, the volume deserves a place high on the reading list of both the student new to Russell as well as the seasoned professional philosopher. * Notre Dame Philosophical Review *Table of ContentsList of Contributors Abbreviations for works written by Russell Bertrand Russell – A Timeline Introduction Part I: Russell in Context 1.

Bloomsbury Publishing PLC The Militant Historian
Book SynopsisThis is the first wide-ranging analysis of Alain Badiou's use, development and transformation of the concept of history. Despite the wealth of perspectives now available on how social and cultural practices take shape, historicism still appears to be the most dominant. The Militant Historian examines this primacy and reveals how Badiou's work offers a radical riposte.Exploring key texts in Badiou's oeuvre and how his philosophical ideas disrupt dominant conceptions of history and the role of the historian, Kerry William Purcell addresses how these ideas could transform our approaches to the historical and what it means to do history' as a meaningful endeavour. Adopting a chronological approach to Badiou's work, each chapter explores specific conceptual developments in his writing and how they lend themselves to a reconsideration of the subject who speaks history. From these new and disruptive modes of doing emerges the figure of the militant historian a role with

Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Deleuze and Slowness
Book SynopsisFocusing on the concept of slowness in Gilles Deleuze's philosophy, this book diverges from the conventional interpretation of Deleuze as a philosopher of speed or even accelerationism, instead delving into the minor but critical themes in his works, from idiocy to catatonia. Advocating for a pragmatic reading of its source material, it utilises Deleuze's thought to address the urgent challenges in contemporary political and social philosophy, particularly the issue of acceleration in its subjective, socio-political, and ecological dimensions. The first part discusses the significance of analysing slowness and introduces the problem of social acceleration, featuring also the relationship of Deleuze's thought with theorists rarely invoked in Deleuzian scholarship, such as Martha Nussbaum or Hartmut Rosa. Using a wide range of examples and sources such as the lesser explored Deleuzian literary inspiration Heinrich von Kleist and Madame de La Fayette, the second part of the book delves

Continuum Publishing Corporation Paul Ricoeurs Pedagogy of Pardon
Book SynopsisMaria Duffy describes Paul Ricoeur's narrative theory of memory and addresses central conceptual and methodological issues in his theory of forgiveness and reconciliation. As the many Truth Commissions around the world illustrate, revisiting the past has a positive benefit in steering history in a new direction after protracted violence. A second deeper strand in the book is the connection between Ricoeur and John Paul II. Both lived through the worst period of modern European history (Ricoeur a prisoner of war during WWII and John Paul, who suffered under the communist regime). Both have written on themes of memory and identity and share a mutual concern for the future of Europe and the preservation of the 'Christian' identity of the Continent as well as the promotion of peace and a civilization of love. The book brings together their shared vision, culminating in the award to Ricoeur by John Paul II of the Paul VI medal for theology.Trade Review'I find Duffy's conception of Ricoeur's 'narrative pedagogy of pardon' - complete with a narrative arc of memory - brilliant in capturing but also applying Ricoeur's enduring contribution to a world broken by war and violence." -Dr Pamela Sue Anderson, Reader in Philosophy of Religion, University of Oxford, UKTable of ContentsForeword; 1.
