The Sociology of Intellectual Life
By: Fuller, Steve
Published by: Sage Publications, Ltd (UK)

The Sociology of Intellectual Life outlines a social theory of knowledge for the 21st century. With characteristic subtlety and verve, Steve Fuller deals directly with a world in which it is no longer taken for granted that universities and academics are the best places and people to embody the life of the mind. While Fuller defends academic privilege, he takes very seriously the historic divergences between academics and intellectuals, attending especially to the different features of knowledge production that they value. Key FeaturesPresents an account of the problematic relationship between postmodernism and the university as an institutionAddresses the problems facing an academic who wishes also to function as an intellectualOffers a critical survey of the emerging fields of social epistemology and the sociology of philosophy Discusses the ethics and politics of public intellectual life, especially given its largely improvisational character more...

The Existentialism of Jean-Paul Sartre
By: Webber, Jonathan
Published by: Routledge

Webber argues for a new interpretation of Sartrean existentialism. On this reading, Sartre is arguing that each person’s character consists in the projects they choose to pursue and that we are all already aware of this but prefer not to face it. Careful consideration of his existentialist writings shows this to be the unifying theme of his theories of consciousness, freedom, the self, bad faith, personal relationships, existential psychoanalysis, and the possibility of authenticity. Developing this account affords many insights into various aspects of his philosophy, not least concerning the origins, structure, and effects of bad faith and the resulting ethic of authenticity. This discussion makes clear the contributions that Sartre’s work can make to current debates over the objectivity of ethics and the psychology of agency, character, and selfhood. Written in an accessible style and illustrated with reference to Sartre’s fiction, this book should appeal to general readers and students as well as to specialists. more...

Überschüsse Der Erfahrung
By: Micali, Stefano
Published by: Springer

Die vorliegende Arbeit zielt darauf ab, Momente der Husserlschen PhAnomenologie hervorzuheben, in denen diese an ihre Grenzen gerAt. Die Husserlsche Analyse stAAt in unterschiedlichen Bereichen auf PhAnomene, die paradoxerweise nur in ihrer eigentA1/4mlichen UnzugAnglichkeit zugAnglich sind. Der Ausweis dieser GrenzphAnomene, die in der Husserl-Literatur bisher noch nicht systematisch untersucht worden sind, steht im Zentrum der Arbeit. Als Leitfaden der Untersuchung dient der Ich-Begriff, der in seiner voller Konkretion analysiert wird. Um dem Ich-Begriff bei Husserl gerecht zu werden, ist es erforderlich, auf seine vielfAltigen Dimensionen einzugehen: PassivitAt, FaktizitAt, IntersubjektivitAt und Zeit werden einer detaillierten Analyse unterzogen. Die Erforschung dieser vielfAltigen Dimensionen des Ich deckt eigentA1/4mliche AoeberschA1/4sse auf, die A1/4ber jede Form von Anschauung und Sinn hinausgehen und somit die Grenzen der jeweils bestehenden Ordnung sprengen. In den unterschiedlichen Kontexten hat der Verfasser sich systematisch mit phAnomenologisch orientierten Autoren zeitgenAssischer Philosophie (insbesondere LA(c)vinas, Derrida, Bernet, Richir und Waldenfels) auseinandergesetzt. Diese Auseinandersetzung zielt nicht nur darauf ab, die Husserlschen Texte neu zu befragen, sondern sie beabsichtigt auch, die Fruchtbarkeit der Husserlschen Analysen fA1/4r die zeitgenAssische Philosophie hervorzuheben. more...

Absent Minds
By: Collini, Stefan
Published by: OUP Oxford

The first full-length account of 'the question of intellectuals' in twentieth-century Britain. Leading intellectual historian and cultural commentator Stefan Collini challenges the myth that there are no 'real' intellectuals in Britain and offers a persuasive analysis of 'the intellectual' as a concept as well as detailed discussions of influential figures such as T.S. Eliot, George Orwell, and Edward Said. - ;A richly textured work of history and a powerful contribution to contemporary cultural debate, Absent Minds provides the first full-length account of 'the question of intellectuals' in twentieth-century Britain - have such figures ever existed, have they always been more prominent or influential elsewhere, and are they on the point of becoming extinct today?. Recovering neglected or misunderstood traditions of reflection and debate from the late nineteenth century through to the present, Stefan Collini challenges the familiar cliche that there are no 'real' intellectuals in Britain. The book offers a persuasive analysis of the concept of 'the intellectual' and an extensive comparative account of how this question has been seen in the USA, France, and elsewhere in Europe. There are detailed discussions of influential or revealing figures such as. Julien Benda, T. S. Eliot, George Orwell, and Edward Said, as well as trenchant critiques of current assumptions about the impact of specialization and celebrity. Throughout, attention is paid to the multiple senses of the term 'intellectuals' and to the great diversity of relevant genres and media. through which they have communicated their ideas, from pamphlets and periodical essays to public lectures and radio talks. Elegantly written and rigorously argued, Absent Minds is a major, long-awaited work by a leading intellectual historian and cultural commentator, ranging across the conventional divides between academic disciplines and combining insightful portrait more...

Academia and the Luster of Capital
By: Cohen, Sande
Published by: University of Minnesota Press

Ideas, says Sande Cohen, have attained “commodity” status in the academy, and knowledge is now seen as another capitalistic “industry.” In Academia and the Luster of Capital, Cohen both reveals and interrogates the specific and material workings of this economy of the marketplace of ideas.Cohen uses paradigms from Baudrillard, Lytoard, Deleuze, and Guattari to assemble a “war machine” against the well-oiled apparatus of self-preservation and self-reproduction of the academic institution. In detailed and concrete arguments, he challenges accepted theories of criticism, especially university-based myths. Academia and the Luster of Capital constitutes a compelling statement for the abandonment of legitimating, officiating paradigms of thought in all academic disciplines, and outlines possibilities for the emergence of the new in thought in action. more...
