Book Description
Annotation In, Martin Heidegger set out an anti-Cartesian attack on Husserl that argued Cartesian philosophy falsely separates the subject from the world. In turn, Alweiss (philosophy, Trinity College, Ireland) contends that Heidegger failed in his attempt to, in her words, "reclaim the world." She defends Husserl's work, detailing the epistemological debate between the two philosophers, and thereby examining a central concern of modern analytic philosophy as it played out in the very different tradition of Continental thinking.

Terra Nullius
Author: Sven Lindqvist

ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
"Sven Lindqvist travels 7,000 miles through Australia in search of places where belief in the rights of the white man and the annihilation of the "lower races" were put into practice. While Australia continues to reckon with its violent past - echoed in the United States' treatment of Native Americans and Europe's colonization of other continents - Lindqvist evokes a history in which young boys were kidnapped to dive for pearls, then whipped and abandoned when the bends ruined them for work; "half-caste" children were taken from their mothers; and natives were misdiagnosed with STDs, put in neck irons, and sent to internment camps on remote islands. Lindqvist also recalls the work of ethnologists who brought their own prejudices to bear in studying Aborigines as primitives close to the origins of civilization, later inspiring Freud and Durkheim. At the same time he describes a beautiful and strange land, sacred to the native people who had inhabited it for centuries and celebrated it in a long tradition on richly symbolic art." "Terra Nullius is the disturbing story of how "no man's land" became the province of the white man."--BOOK JACKET.

Unclaimed Terrain
Author: Ajay Navaria
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781459699748
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
The narrator of the lead story in this collection occupies an 'unclaimed terrain', as do many of Ajay Navaria's characters. Journeying from a Dantewada village in India's east to the town of Nagpur and from there to Mumbai, the Byronic protagonist is raped, works as a masseur and then as a gigolo even while pursuing his education. The city teaches him the many meanings of labour, and he is freed - if ultimately destroyed - by its infinite possibilities for self - invention. As complex as they are political, Navaria's characters - ranging from a brahmin labourer to a dalit male prostitute - are neither black nor white, neither clearly good nor evil. They inhabit a grey zone; they linger in the transitional space between past object and future subject, between caste and democracy. Unclaimed Terrain represents Giramondo's commitment to South Asian literature and to writing which explores social difference and inequality.
