  • av Kwame Anthony Appiah
    289,-

    Appiah explores how new empirical moral psychology relates to the age-old project of philosophical ethics, urging that the relation between empirical research and morality, now so often antagonistic, should be seen in terms of dialogue, not contest. He thereby shows how experimental philosophy is actually as old as philosophy itself.

  • - Translating Courtliness and Violence in Early Modern Eurasia
    av Sanjay Subrahmanyam
    423,-

    In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries the court was the crucial site where expanding Eurasian states and empires met and made sense of one another. Richly illustrated, Courtly Encounters provides a fresh cross-cultural perspective on early modern Islam, Counter-Reformation Catholicism, Protestantism, and a newly emergent Hindu sphere.

    244,-

    Judith Butler elucidates the dynamics of public assembly under prevailing economic and political conditions. Understanding assemblies as plural forms of performative action, she extends her theory of performativity to show why precarity-destruction of the conditions of livability-is a galvanizing force and theme in today's highly visible protests.

  • av Bonnie Honig
    318,-

Historical and fictional characters from Muhammad Ali to the Bacchants of ancient Greek tragedy teach us how to turn rejection into transformative efforts toward self-governance.
