Politics and Truth in Hölderlin - Hyperion and the Choreographic Project of Modernity (Hardcover): Anthony Curtis Adler Politics and Truth in Hölderlin - Hyperion and the Choreographic Project of Modernity (Hardcover)
Anthony Curtis Adler; Foreword by Peter Fenves

The first English-language study devoted to Hölderlin's novel in three decades, this book reveals Hyperion's literary and philosophical richness and its complex ties with politics, choreography, and economics. While few would question the importance of Friedrich Hölderlin (1770-1843) for the development of German idealism and twentieth-century literature, philosophy, and critical theory, Hölderlin scholarship remains largely inaccessible to those working in English. This is especially true for his novel Hyperion - otherwise his most accessible work - which has not had a book-length study in English devoted to it in more than three decades. Anthony Curtis Adler opens Hölderlin's novel up to the reader by stressing its literary uniqueness, philosophical riches, complex ties with contemporaneous discourses, and relevance to contemporary Continental political theory. Neither merely a stepping-stone to his later and more esoteric poetry, nor a novelistic presentation of an idealist dialectics, Hyperion offers a powerful new vision of the relation between poetry, political economy, and philosophical truth. Poetry, for Hölderlin, anticipates forms of political life that have only been obscurely glimpsed; rather than imitating a luminously given idea of the Good, it patiently guides toward a dimly sensed better world. Thus it replaces the Platonic philosopher-king with the poetic leader of the dance. Yet in just this way, Adler shows, Hyperion's project converges with a constellation of quintessentially "modern" discourses and practices, including the codification of dance in early modernity and the rise of political economy in the 18th century. Readers will discover the "choreographic" logic underlying both of these - and, with this, a new way to think about the relations between literature, politics, economics, and dance.

Two Studies of Friedrich Hoelderlin (Paperback): Werner Hamacher Two Studies of Friedrich Hoelderlin (Paperback)
Werner Hamacher; Edited by Peter Fenves, Julia Ng; Translated by Julia Ng, Anthony Curtis Adler
R815 R750 Discovery Miles 7 500 Save R65 (8%) Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Two Studies of Friedrich Hoelderlin shows how the poet enacts a radical theory of meaning that culminates in a unique and still groundbreaking concept of revolution, one that begins with a revolutionary understanding of language. The product of an intense engagement with both Walter Benjamin and Jacques Derrida, the book presents Werner Hamacher's major attempts at developing a critical practice commensurate with the immensity of Hoelderlin's late writings. These essays offer an incisive and innovative combination of critical theory and deconstruction while also identifying where influential critics like Heidegger fail to do justice to the poet's astonishing radicality. Readers will not only come away with a new appreciation of Hoelderlin's poetic and political-theoretical achievements but will also discover the motivating force behind Hamacher's own achievements as a literary scholar and political theorist. An introduction by Julia Ng and an afterword by Peter Fenves provide further information about these studies and the academic and theoretical context in which they were composed.

Celebricities - Media Culture and the Phenomenology of Gadget Commodity Life (Paperback): Anthony Curtis Adler Celebricities - Media Culture and the Phenomenology of Gadget Commodity Life (Paperback)
Anthony Curtis Adler
R682 Discovery Miles 6 820 Ships in 9 - 15 working days

What becomes of life, experience, and truth in the hyperconsumeristic culture of the twenty-first century? What happens to the phenomenological call to go "back to the things themselves" when these things, to an ever greater degree, involve a televised life that is not ours to live, celebrities who are utterly like us yet infinitely untouchable, and uncannily pluripotent electronic gadgets? Combining sustained philosophical inquiry with fragmentary and experimental theoretical interventions, Anthony Curtis Adler rethinks Marxist materialism and the Heideggerian project in terms of the singular experiences of late capitalism. In doing so, he reveals how the disarticulation of life via the commodity fetish demands at once a new notion of phenomenological method and an ontology oriented toward the radical contingency of being itself as transcendental ground.

The Alpha and Omega Code - The Personal Life Story of Immanuel Jesus Christ (Paperback): Anthony Curtis Beaver The Alpha and Omega Code - The Personal Life Story of Immanuel Jesus Christ (Paperback)
Anthony Curtis Beaver
R370 Discovery Miles 3 700 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Many people are on a walk to find faith with Christ and his teachings. They are searching for truth and happiness in their lives. There is a passion for confirmation of what they believe. This book is intended to help them understand Christ's life by telling the whole story. There are also many people that do not know anything about Jesus Christ. With the New Testament Gospels, there is not a defined time line that is easy to read and understand. Information is scattered within the Gospels and many people do not take the time to read all the books to find the truth of Christ's life. A lot of people have friends that they would like to introduce to Christ, but have no way to reach them in a simple manner. This is the problem, I have found in the past with others. I have solved this problem with The Alpha and Omega Code. This book would be a great discipleship tool for them. The best gift you can give someone is faith in Christ. So; welcome to The Alpha and Omega Code. I have reversed engineer or reformulated the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John by taking them apart line by line, verse by verse, and code by code to formulate a clearer picture of what Christ's life was like here on earth. This book includes all of his teachings, miracles, and trials, to the bitter end on the cross, his resurrection, showing himself to his disciples, including his final teachings to them before his ascension to heaven sitting at the right hand of God. Never before has the Gospel of Christ been explained like this by overcoming any contradictions and filling in the holes that reading only one Gospel at a time will give you. This is the Harmony of the Gospels at its best. This book teaches the life of Christ the way he personally taught it by using an approach following a timeline of Christ's life. For the first time people have a clear and easy to read approach to the Gospel. There are no study aids needed; everything is prepared for you. All you have to do is just open The Alpha and Omega Code and read it. I hope that this book will be the most complete and accessible account of the works of Christ on the market today. I do not add any of my personal ideas or religious beliefs to any of this book.
