Globalization and Sense-Making Practices


Free Download Simi Malhotra, "Globalization and Sense-Making Practices"
English | ISBN: 1032222816 | 2023 | 296 pages | PDF | 4 MB
This book presents a critical analysis of sense-making practices through an exploration of acoustic, creative, and artistic spaces. It studies how local cultures of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch are impacted by global discourses and media, such as television, popular music, digital media, and literature. The authors look at sense-making practices and spatial discourses through an interconnected discussion on thought and experience that seeks to present a multidimensional cartography of the global, the local, and the glocal, to closely analyze the phenomenon of globalization. The volume is an investigation of the possibilities of alternate, sustainable modes of being and existing in a world which requires a unified, ethical, biopolitical worldview that challenges the disparity of its fragments while speculating on their synesthetic conditionality.

Education and Democracy at The End The Crisis of Sense


Free Download Education and Democracy at The End: The Crisis of Sense by Mario Di Paolantonio
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 232 Pages | ISBN : 3031481763 | 5.9 MB
This book grapples with what it means when education and democracy are at an end: when these two foundational aspects of our society seem to have reached a culminating point, no longer appearing to produce and make sense amid the crises of our time. Engaging topical political events and mobilizing a variety of cultural resources, Di Paolantonio shows that today the possibility of the future and the significance of an expansive transgenerational sensibility are radically in question as trends toward destruction, cruelty, and banality are steering world-defying calamities, and sparking "chronopathologies" of doom and despair among the planet’s occupants. Unfolding his argument through a series of accessible chapters that draw on contemporary philosophy, educational thinking, and cultural-artistic works, Di Paolantonio explores how the transgenerational sensibility retains a possibility we might tap for overcoming the impasses of our time.

Descriptioninus on the Appearance of Time and the World of Sense A Pantomime


Free Download Deepa Majumdar, "Descriptioninus on the Appearance of Time and the World of Sense: A Pantomime"
English | ISBN: 1138265020 | 2017 | 246 pages | PDF, EPUB | 5 + 1 MB
Descriptioninus (c.205-70) was a Neoplatonist philosopher, his work posthumously published by Porphyry and divided into six books, nine tractates each, called the Enneads. In this book Majumdar makes a valuable addition to the literature on his work, especially Ennead III.7(45)11-13 – in particular explaining Descriptioninus’ cosmology using the genus-species model of soul, coordinating the literature on the appearance of time and the cosmos with that on the larger issue of Descriptioninian "emanation" and examining the role of tolma and the restless nature of soul in this conjoint appearance. This book investigates Descriptioninian "emanation," its laws of poiesis (contemplative making ) and the roles of nature, matter, logos, (rational formative principle) and contemplation and highlights the subtler details of Descriptioninus’ cosmology by disentangling conceptual issues about the nature of soul and self ("we") and their impact on the process of generation of time and the cosmos.

Sound and Sense in British Romanticism


Free Download Sound and Sense in British Romanticism
English | 2023 | ISBN: 1009277847 | 302 Pages | PDF (True) | 11 MB
A radical re-imagining of the relationship between sound and sense took place in Britain in the decades around 1800. This new approach reconfigured sound as central to understandings of space and temporality, from the diurnal rhythms of everyday life in the modern city to the ‘deep time’ of the natural world. At the same time, sound emerged as a frequently disruptive phenomenon, a philosophical and political problem, and a force with the power to overwhelm listeners. This is the first book devoted to the topic and brings together scholars from literary studies, musicology, history and philosophy through the interdisciplinary frameworks of sound studies and the history of the senses. The chapters pursue a wide range of subjects, from ‘national airs’ to the London stage, and from experiments in sound to new musical and scientific instruments. Collectively, they demonstrate how a focus on sound can enrich our understanding of Romantic-era culture.
