Can One Live after Auschwitz?
Author: Theodor W. Adorno
Publisher: Stanford University Press
ISBN: 9780804731447
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 566
Book Description
This is a comprehensive collection of readings from the work of Theodor Adorno, one of the most influential German thinkers of the twentieth century. What took place in Auschwitz revokes what Adorno termed the "Western legacy of positivity,” the innermost substance of traditional philosophy. The prime task of philosophy then remains to reflect on its own failure, its own complicity in such events. Yet in linking the question of philosophy to historical occurrence, Adorno seems not to have abandoned his paradoxical, life-long hope that philosophy might not be entirely closed to the idea of redemption. He prepares for an altogether different praxis, one no longer conceived in traditionally Marxist terms but rather to be gleaned from "metaphysical experience.” In this collection, Adorno's literary executor has assembled the definitive introduction to his thinking. Its five sections anatomize the range of Adorno's concerns: "Toward a New Categorical Imperative,” "Damaged Life,” "Administered World, Reified Thought,” "Art, Memory of Suffering,” and "A Philosophy That Keeps Itself Alive.” A substantial number of Adorno’s writings included appear here in English for the first time. This collection comes with an eloquent introduction from Rolf Tiedemann, the literary executor of Adorno’s work.

How to Live After 50

Pages : 122
Book Description
49, 50, 51... How to live the second half of your life with grace as you pass through the years when your days are fewer than the days you’ve lived. Nowadays, so many people are energetic even at 50, and so many say that real life starts at 60, 70, and so on, that it feels like there is still much life left even at 50. But that’s not true at all. Even if they live to the average lifespan, they have only 30 years left. Anyone who has lived to 50 knows how quickly that passes. This book is the story of how the author, who realized this obvious truth at the age of 49, started to live the second half of his life pondering and acting on the question, “What can I do to stop living the way I’ve been living and begin planning and living the way I want to live?” In this book, the author tells, sometimes gently, sometimes fiercely, what he’s learned from creating, reading, and studying more than 300 kinds of books in his 20 years as a publishing planner and editor, the struggles and practices he’s incorporated into his life while going through life’s upheavals around the age of 50, and his resolutions to live this complex lives. This book teaches you how to make the most of your second half of life. First and foremost, you need to train yourself to be a person who is not swayed by emotions but controls emotions. Suppose you are swayed back and forth by various emotions from the environment and people around you. In that case, you will not be able to take control of your life. Therefore, dealing with emotions is dealing with you, dealing with your life. And conversely, dealing with how to live is also dealing with emotions. The book offers four resolutions to becoming a person who controls emotions and lives one’s own life. These are: don’t get upset, don’t get heartbroken, don’t get anxious, and redesign the view of life that will establish the center of life. By practicing these resolutions and making them habits, you can live the second half of your life in control. This book will get you started on that path.

Fight to Live, Live to Fight Veteran Activism after War
Author: Benjamin Schrader
Publisher: SUNY Press
ISBN: 1438475195
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
Examines US foreign and domestic policy through the narratives of post-9/11 US military veterans and the activism they are engaged in. While veterans are often cast as a “problem” for society, Fight to Live, Live to Fight challenges this view by focusing on the progressive, positive, and productive activism that veterans engage in. Benjamin Schrader weaves his own experiences as a former member of the American military and then as a member of the activist community with the stories of other veteran activists he has encountered across the United States. An accessible blend of political theory, international relations, and American politics, this book critically examines US foreign and domestic policy through the narratives of post-9/11 military veterans who have turned to activism after having exited the military. Veterans are involved in a wide array of activism, including but not limited to antiwar, economic justice, sexual violence prevention, immigration issues, and veteran healing through art. This is an accessible, captivating, and engaging work that may be read and appreciated not just by scholars, but also students and the wider public. “There is currently no book on the market that does what this book does (and could do) and I welcome it. There are books on veterans, of course, but there are none that focus in particular on veterans’ activism written by a veteran activist and academic. The book is in many ways a testament to our time and a kind of generational story that I am sure many veterans will relate to.” — Synne L. Dyvik, University of Sussex
