Author: Bruce M. Knauft
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136661271
Category : Social Science

In the wake of tensions between modern and postmodern sensibilities, what larger directions now emerge in cultural anthropology?

Dream of Reason
Author: Rosa Chacel
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 0803214731
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 718
Book Description
A masterpiece of modernist fiction about one man’s search for meaning, Dream of Reason (La sinrazón) reveals Rosa Chacel as an intellectual and literary innovator whose work stands alongside that of Joyce, Proust, and Woolf. This meditative novel, grounded in the thinking of Spain’s great modern philosopher Ortega y Gasset, unfolds as the journal of a bourgeois chemist who makes his way in Buenos Aires just before and during the Spanish Civil War. Tracing his relationship with three women, Santiago Hernández explores the power of his own intentions and the limits of human reason. His introspective experiment, set against the background of world-altering events, documents the workings of a self-absorbed mind speculating on the inseparability of self and circumstance and is a brilliant enactment of how, from such tensions, narrative emerges.
