In Nietzsche and the Shadow of God, his study of Nietzsche's integral philosophical corpus, Franck revisits the fundamental concepts of Nietzsche's thought, from the death of God and the will to power, to the body as the seat of thinking and valuing, and finally to his conception of a post-Christian justice.
Michel Henry defends the illuminating thesis that Incarnation is not existence in a body, but existence in the flesh. It is not in a body that flesh appears originally, but being in the flesh that comes first. For only in flesh can one see or touch, feel joy or sorrow, hunger or thirst-and undergo each of these impressions as one's own.
Originally presented as the author's thesis (doctoral)--Rice University.
Presents the concept of the beautiful through the framework of Merleau-Ponty's aesthetics. This book formulates that the ontology of Flesh as element and the ontology of the Beautiful as elemental are folded together, for Desire, Love, and Beauty are part of the fabric of the world's element, Flesh itself.
Clark Butler presents an innovative analysis of Hegel's most challenging work in Hegel's Logic--the first major English-language treatment of Hegel's Science of Logic to appear in nearly fifteen years. Although earlier commentators on the Logic have considered standard analytical philosophy-and with it modern logic-in opposition to Hegel. Butler views it as a legitimate approach in terms of which Hegel needs to be understood. This interpretation allows him to address the rigor of Hegel's thought on several levels as at once an exercise in purely conceptual redefinition and a full-bodied work in metaphysical ontology and even theology. The result is an account of the Logic intelligible to analytical philosophers as well as non-specialists.
In this book, Toadvine demonstrates how Maurice Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology has a special power to address such a crisis--a philosophical power far better suited to the questions than other modern approaches, with their over-reliance on assumptions drawn from the natural sciences.
Alain Badiou and Slavoj Zizek together have emerged as two of Europe's most significant living philosophers. This book examines Badiouian and Zizekian depictions of change, particularly as deployed at the intersection of philosophy and politics.
How does the body politic reflect the nature of human embodiment? This book uses Merleau-Ponty's concept of 'intertwining' - the presence of one's self in the world and of the world in one's self - to understand the ideas that define political life.
A translation of Scheler's ""The Human Place in the Cosmos"". It addresses two main questions: What is the human being? And what is the place of the human being in the universe? It also covers various levels of being: inorganic reality, organic reality (including plant life and psychological life), and the way up to practical intelligence.
Machiavelli in the Making is both a novel interpretation of the Florentine's work and a critical document for understanding influential French scholar and public intellectual Claude Lefort's later writings on democracy and totalitarianism.
This comprehensive study of Husserl's phenomenology concentrates on Husserl's emphasis on the theory of knowledge. The authors develop a synthetic overview of phenomenology and its relation to logic, mathematics, the natural and human sciences, and philosophy.
Explores the problems of contemporary philosophy of language and the constitution of logical forms. Husserl argues that, even at its most abstract, logic demands an underlying theory of experience. Part I examines prepredicative experience; Part II the structure of predicative thought as such; and Part III the origin of general conceptual thought.
Speaking is an introduction to the philosophy of language from an existential and phenomenological point of view. Gusdorf's central concern is to analyze speech within the context of human reality. Speech is an abstraction, but speaking is not, he says. Speaking expresses the experimental and dialectical relation of man, nature, and society. It is through speaking that nature is sublimated into the meant and expressive world of human reality.

A glimpse into Maurice Merleau-Ponty's nuanced reading of Husserl and his effort to track the genesis of truth through the idealization of language. It combines Merleau-Ponty's notes on Husserl's Origin of Geometry, his course summary, related texts, and essays by the co-translators.
Restructuring Architectural Theory addresses the impact of contemporary critical theory, from poststructuralism to deconstruction and beyond, on architecture. This unique collection of essays will be invaluable to students and scholars as well as to architects and art historians for the range of issues it covers and the depth of analysis it provides.
This elegant translation of Bernhard Waldenfels's Phenomenology of the Alien (Grundmotive einer Phanomenologie des Fremden) introduces an English readership to the philosophy of alien-experience, a multifaceted and multidimensional phenomenon that permeates our everyday experiences of the life-world with immediate implications for the ways we conduct our social, political, and ethical affairs.

By virtue of the originality and depth of its thought, Emmanuel Levinas's masterpiece, Totality and Infinity: An Essay on Exteriority, is destined to endure as one of the great works of philosophy. It is an essential text for understanding Levinas's discussion of "the Other," yet it is known as a "difficult" book.
This is a new translation of Maurice Merleau-Ponty's Sorbonne lectures of 1949 to 1952. The lectures are a broad investigation into child psychology, psychoanalysis, pedagogy, henomenology, sociology, and anthropology that argue that the subject of child
"In Albert Hofstadter's excellent translation, we can listen in as Heidegger clearly and patiently explains ... the ontological difference." Hubert L. Dreyfus, Times Literary Supplement
Essays on the relationship between perceptual experience and scientific thought-an introduction to the phenomenology of science.
Examines the paradox between Husserl's transcendental philosophy and his later historicist theory. Rejecting the arguments of earlier critics, this book proposes a model of the transcendental philosopher who balances historical reduction with a strict mind of historical context.
Investigates the antinomy between history and truth, or between historicity and meaning. This book argues that history has meaning insofar as it approaches universality and system, but has no meaning insofar as this universality violates the singularity of individuals' lives.
The Crisis of European Sciences and Transcendental Phenomenology, Husserl's last great work, is important both for its content and for the influence it has had on other philosophers. In this book, which remained unfinished at his death, Husserl attempts to forge a union between phenomenology and existentialism.
Included are essays in epistemology, metaphysics, and philosophical psychology by one of the most important twentieth-century continental philosophers.
