{"product_id":"the-aesthetic-paths-of-philosophy-alison-ross-9780804754873","title":"The Aesthetic Paths of Philosophy: Presentation in Kant, Heidegger, Lacoue-Labarthe, and Nancy","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book examines the ways that Heidegger, Lacoue-Labarthe, and Nancy adopt and reconfigure the Kantian understanding of \"aesthetic presentation.\" In Kant, \"aesthetic presentation\" is understood in a technical sense as a specific mode of experience within a typology of different spheres of experience. This study argues that Heidegger, Lacoue-Labarthe, and Nancy generalize the elements of this specific mode of experience so that the aesthetic attitude and the vocabulary used by Kant to describe it are brought to bear on things in general. The book goes beyond documenting the well-known influence of Kant's \u003ci\u003eCritique of Judgment\u003c\/i\u003e, however, to open up a new way of approaching some of the central issues in post-Kantian thought--including why it is that art, the art work, and the aesthetic are still available as a vehicle of critique even, or especially, after Auschwitz. It shows that a genealogy of contemporary theory needs to look at the question of presentation, which has arguably been a question that has worried philosophy from its very beginning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alison Ross\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 080475487X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804754873\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/10\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.70d","brand":"Alison Ross","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065147273471,"sku":"9780804754873","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_557fd4c4-7f97-4f14-9c6e-4ccdff1bd79a.jpg?v=1768673306","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-aesthetic-paths-of-philosophy-alison-ross-9780804754873","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
