Vico's Uncanny Humanism - Sandra Rudnick Luft - Bog - Cornell University Press - Plusbog.dk

Vico's Uncanny Humanism - Sandra Rudnick Luft - Bog - Cornell University Press - Plusbog.dk

Sandra Luft, in her ambitious postmodernist reading of Vico''s profoundly influential New Science, asserts the "strangeness" of texts that struggle to understand human existence outside the assumptions of traditional humanism. One of her central arguments is that Vico as a thinker moved toward such an alien understanding. Despite his warning against the tyranny of "familiar conceits," his work is commonly read within the traditional philosophic assumptions of the West—assumptions that she shows cannot contain nor explain the work''s novelty.The book includes extensive comparisons of Vico with Nietzsche, Heidegger, and Derrida. Luft does not regard Vico as a precursor of the postmodern, which she sees as a recurring perspective in the West, one critical of the assumptions underlying traditional humanist conceptions of human nature and knowledge. Luft finds anachronistic not the question of Vico''s affinity to postmodern ideas, but rather his identification with traditional humanism and modernism by modern scholars. Luft''s reading brings to the fore radical existential issues in New Science: its concern with origins, with the power of language and social practices, and with its critique of human subjectivity. That perspective makes Vico interesting and important for a wide circle of contemporary readers.

Nursing in General Practice - Sarah Luft - Bog - Springer - Plusbog.dk

Nursing in General Practice - Sarah Luft - Bog - Springer - Plusbog.dk

This book will support the developments in general practice by introducing subjects that influence health care. Although the term practice nurse is used throughout the text, community health care nurse could equally apply as the editors recognize that much of the material covered is valuable to any nurse who works in the discipline of community health. Health itself is multifaceted and the contents of this book have been carefully chosen to serve as an introduction to areas of health care that are likely to be new to the majority of readers. The chapters therefore can be viewed as a comprehen­ sive text but each is sufficiently detailed to accommodate a specific framework for its subject area that should provide the basis for competent working knowledge. Hopefully readers will feel inspired to build on the work in these chapters and there is a wealth of specialized and detailed knowledge available in the colleges of higher education, nursing, medical and public libraries that provides material for further reading.

Latin American Women and the Literature of Madness - Elvira Sanchez Blake - Bog - McFarland & Co Inc - Plusbog.dk

Latin American Women and the Literature of Madness - Elvira Sanchez Blake - Bog - McFarland & Co Inc - Plusbog.dk

At the turn of the millennium, narrative works by Latin American women writers have represented madness within contexts of sociopolitical strife and gender inequality. This book explores contemporary Latin American realities through madness narratives by prominent women authors, including Cristina Peri Rossi (Uruguay), Lya Luft (Brazil), Diamela Eltit (Chile), Cristina Rivera Garza (Mexico), Laura Restrepo (Colombia) and Irene Vilar (Puerto Rico). Close reading of these works reveals a pattern of literary techniques--a "poetics of madness"--employed by the writers to represent conditions that defy language, make sociopolitical crises tangible and register cultural perceptions of mental illness through literature.

Odyssey of a Bombardier - - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Odyssey of a Bombardier is the illustrated Prisoner of War “log” that depicts the experiences of bombardier Richard M. Mason in German prison camps after his B-17 “Flying Fortress” was shot down by the Germans in France in 1944, the final year of World War II. The log follows Mason from the day his plane crashed until his liberation in April, 1945, and his return home to the United States. Included are such topics as medical treatment and rehabilitation for wounded prisoners of the Germans, life in Stalag Luft III, a difficult long march in an arctic winter to another camp, the travails of prisoners in the overcrowded, filthy camp at Moosburg, critical food shortages, and the arrival of General George Patton with the liberating forces. Mason was an amateur artist and illustrated his journal with moving depictions of prison life and comradeship. This book shows U.S. airmen demonstrating grace and courage under pressure and meeting every challenge that their imprisonment presented.

The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms, Volume 1 - Ernst Cassirer - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms, Volume 1 - Ernst Cassirer - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

" The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms is a milestone in twentieth century philosophy. Promoting a philosophical vision informed by Kant, it incorporates the philosophical advances achieved in the nineteenth century by German Idealism and Neo-Kantianism, whilst acknowledging the contributions made by his contemporary phenomenologists. It also encompasses empirical and historical research on culture and the most contemporary work on myth, linguistics and psychopathology. As such, it ranks in philosophical importance along with other major works of the twentieth century, such as Edmund Husserl’s Logical Investigations , Martin Heidegger’s Being and Time , and Ludwig Wittgenstein’s Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus. In the first volume, Cassirer explores the symbolic form of language. Already recognized by thinkers in the tradition of German Idealism, such as Wilhelm von Humboldt, language is the primary medium by which we interact with others and form a common world. As Cassirer emphasizes in the famous Davos Debate with Heidegger, ''there is one objective human world, in which a bridge is built from individual to individual. That I find in the primal phenomenon of language.'' The famous trias Cassirer discerns in the functioning of language – the functions of expression ( Ausdruck ), presentation ( Darstellung ), and signification ( Bedeutung ) – has become paradigmatic for accounts of language, philosophical, linguistic, and anthropological alike." Sebastian Luft, Professor of Philosophy, Marquette University, USA. This new translation makes Cassirer’s seminal work available to a new generation of scholars. Each volume includes a translator’s introduction by Steve G. Lofts, a foreword by Peter E. Gordon, a glossary of key terms, and an index.

Praise for The Book of Management Wisdom "This book is worth referring to time and again for enduring truths that transcend the turbulence of the business landscape." -Warren Bennis, Distinguished Professor of Business Administration, University of Southern California,and coauthor, Co-Leaders: The Power of Great Partnerships Pearls from The Book of Management Wisdom "Dealing with conflicts lies at the heart of managing any business. As a result, confrontation facing issues about which there is disagreement can be avoided only at the manager''s peril."-Andrew S. Grove "Never hire your friends. I have made this mistake three times and had to fire all three. They are no longer my friends."-David Ogilvy "It''s absolutely essential to let your people express themselves. And that means letting them make mistakes. You''ve got to allow them to walk into your office and say, ''Boss, I blew it.'' That''s called growing."-Lee Iacocca "For us, the issue wasn''t whether people would waste time on the Internet, but whether they would use the Internet enough. Not to become completely familiar with a transformative business tool like the Internet is just foolish-especially when it''s an integral part of your company''s strategy and competitive advantage."- Michael Dell "A society which values MBAs, lawyers, and financial wizards over engineers and product planners is moving in the wrong direction."-Akio Morita
