Postphenomenological Investigations: Essays on Human-Technology Relations provides an introduction to the school of thought called postphenomenology and showcases projects at the cutting edge of this perspective. Postphenomenology presents a unique blend of insights from the philosophical traditions of phenomenology and American pragmatism, and applies them to studies of user relations to technologies. These studies provide deep descriptions of the ways technologies transform our abilities, augment our experience, and shape the world around us. This book proceeds with a preface by Don Ihde, postphenomenology's founder, and a detailed review of the main ideas of this perspective by the editors Robert Rosenberger and Peter-Paul Verbeek. The body of this volume is composed of twelve postphenomenological essays which reflect the expansive range, detail-orientation, and interdisciplinarity of this school of thought. These essays confront a broad assortment of topics, both abstract and concrete. Abstract topics addressed include metaphysics, ethics, methodology, and analysis of the notions of selfhood, skill training, speed, and political activism. Just a few of the concrete topics studied include human-like interactive robots, ethics education, image interpretation in radiology, science fiction tropes, transportation history, wearable computing, and organ donation protocols for brain-dead bodies. The volume concludes with constructive critiques of postphenomenology by Andrew Feenberg, Diane Michelfelder, and Albert Borgmann, all figures whose work is relevant to postphenomenological projects.

Reflections on the Religious, the Ethical, and the Political (Paperback): Calvin O. Schrag Reflections on the Religious, the Ethical, and the Political (Paperback)

R1,242 Discovery Miles 12 420 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Reflections on the Religious, the Ethical, and the Political presents fourteen essays devoted to the interconnected topics of religion, ethics, and politics, along with an introductory interview with the author regarding his philosophical development over the years. This volume serves two interconnected purposes: as an introduction or reintroduction to Professor Schrag's intellectual contributions to a critical consideration of these three topics, and as a critical companion and supplement to Schrag's published work on these topics, starting with Existence and Freedom (1961), working all the way through to Doing Philosophy with Others (2010). The topics of religion, ethics, and politics have served as pivot points throughout Schrag's career in the academy, which spans half a century. Part One, Religion and the Post-Secular Turn in Continental Philosophy, includes contributions to the traditions of philosophical discussion regarding matters of ontology, religious epistemology, existentialism, transcendence, and the problem of evil, all informed by the myriad resources of twentieth-century philosophy.Part Two, Transvaluation of the Ethical and the Political, considers topics of moral experience, interpersonal alterity, cross-cultural dialogue, and postnational identity, all against the backdrop of a radicalized understanding of the gift. Throughout, this volume gives voice to a distinctive Schragean philosophy of religion, morality, and political praxis. This approach is heavily rooted in a critical dialogue with all relevant modes of philosophical and theological discourse, including phenomenology, existentialism, hermeneutics, critical social theory, postmodernism, deconstruction, and postsecular philosophy of religion. In conversation with the post/modern and deconstructive approaches that held sway during the second half of the twentieth century, Schrag charts a transversal path that reenergizes the philosophy of the human subject in its religious, ethical, and political dimensions.
