Miller S: Care of the Sexual Self

Care of the Sexual Self

Áskesis as a Route to Sex Education

This book introduces a conceptually rich and innovative new framework for the ethics of nonviolence by drawing from Dostoevsky's "Legend of the Grand Inquisitor." It offers fresh insights into civil resistance and political theory.

A Dostoevskian Framework for Political Theory

Nonviolence and the Grand Inquisitor

Bringing together Michel Foucault's aesthetics of existence and Richard Shusterman's somaesthetics, this volume provides a critical comparison of two of the most influential philosophical theories of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Introduced by a comprehensive overview of both concepts by editors Stefano Marino and Valentina Antoniol, the ensuing chapters interrogate the affinities and variances between Foucault's and Shusterman's philosophies. Building on the interdisciplinary character of somaesthetics and aesthetics of existence, international scholars explore these ideas through a wide range of topics ranging from care of the self and of the social self to the ethical and political challenges posed by themes as white ignorance, construction of resistances, and production of subjectivities. Given the central role played by the body in both concepts, this volume also affords particular attention to the philosophy of sexuality. Demonstrating the value of reading these two thinkers together through the adoption of radical interpretive perspectives, Foucault's Aesthetics of Existence and Shusterman's Somaesthetics highlights the potentialities and the relevance of Foucault's and Shusterman's theories, even with respect to our actualité.

Ethics, Politics, and the Art of Living

Foucault's Aesthetics of Existence and Shusterman's Somaesthetics

Presents a universal defense of the rational moral law and a strong and uncompromising criticism of skepticism and relativism.

A Defense of Reason

The Principles of Philosophy

Offers an arts-based, storying, textual and visual lens on gender-based violence in the UK and Mexico. This book is a unique image-based bilingual (English and Spanish) book of textual and visual narratives of gender-based violence (GBV) in the UK and Mexico, framed with a critical commentary that sets these stories in the context of GBV in both countries. Visual and textual stories convey the 'felt' experience of GBV, engaging readers and audiences in the apparently mundane as well as the shocking. Such stories help contest the prominence of crime statistics in evidencing GBV, statistics which often distort experience and reflect and maintain exclusionary policies and practices, particularly for minoritised communities. The transnational project on which this book is based invited artists and creative writers from diverse backgrounds in the UK and Mexico to respond to lived accounts of GBV in comic stories, short stories, poems, 3D installations, fine art photography, painting and film. This book brings together these visual and textual stories and sets out a series of readings and analyses that seek to further knowledge on GBV in different cultural contexts. This book is open access under a CC BY licence.

Storying the Immobilities of Gender Violence in the UK and Mexico

Bloomsbury Studies in Modern German Philosophy

"This collection brings together a series of cutting-edge studies on the most significant controversies and prize essay contests of the German Enlightenment. Chapters address questions such as the condition of possibility of the debates, their institutional support and their aims, and introduce relatively unknown but key figures of the period. Set out into four parts, the essays provide new material on areas such as anthropology, the problem of language, colonialism and the origins of aesthetics for the wider study of 18th-century intellectual and philosophical life"--

How To Think

The Poets That Made Our World and Why We Need Them

How to Think Like a Poet

A Handbook for Happiness

How to Live Like a Stoic

Why do we care about writing well? Should we worry about how to write prose that's true, good and beautiful? Perhaps we need to dismantle our idea of what truth, goodness and beauty mean in the first place. This is one of the ideas at the heart of this open access book - that the common concepts defining the act of writing are overdue a reconsideration. For 2400 years philosophers have written meditations, aphorisms, handbooks, essays, letters, confessions, stories, plays, diatribes, and dialogues. Setting out a new way of looking at the role of writing in philosophical enquiry, David Arndt explains how writing has always been the act of thinking on paper - a meditative practice integral to the search for wisdom. He describes how different kinds of thought - demonstrative, interpretive, narrative and perspectival - are expressed in different genres of writing, breaking down the highest questions of philosophy in clear and witty terms. This is both a meditation and a practical guide, with the book's final section setting out fifty principles of composition to demonstrate how these theoretical insights can in turn guide the way we actually write. These principles will help readers to become better writers and, in the process, become better thinkers. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

Philosophy of Writing

This book explores the question of what it means to live a successful life, arguing that both our commonsense and philosophical assumptions about success are misguided, for both focus on external achievements and overlook the importance of happiness to achieving success in life.

A Philosophical Examination of Happiness, Well-Being, and Meaning in Life

The Pursuit of Success

Transgender Theory

The first introductory guide to the history, key ideas, controversies and possible future of transgender theory.

An Introduction

Schizoanalytic Applications

Deleuzo-Guattarian philosophy provides crucial insights for assessing the post-neoliberal era in this cutting-edge volume of anti-capitalist scholarship. It maps the critical new assemblages emerging out of decades of neoliberalism to diagnose contemporary and future discontent. Working alongside other forms of inquiry into the post-neoliberal era, the volume proposes a novel combination of ethics and Deleuzo-Guattarian philosophy to understand the post-neoliberal era. Contributors argue that current critiques of neoliberalism ignore the determining role of colonialism and the accelerated threat of climate breakdown. They highlight the precariousness of our planetary existence and propose new forms of inquiry into Deleuzo-Guattarian becoming. Deleuze, Guattari and the Schizoanalysis of Post-Neoliberalism considers new modes of capitalism, societies built on exhaustion, digital power, education, agroforestry, as well as literary texts that characterise the post-neoliberal era. Alongside these critical positions, the volume uses an ethical framework to challenge dialectical divisions in neoliberal critique. In the process, the essays remap the antagonisms, discontents and tensions of current post-neoliberal becoming.
