Without Criteria
Author: Steven Shaviro
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262517973
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
A Deleuzian reading of Whitehead and a Whiteheadian reading of Deleuze open the possibility of a critical aesthetics of contemporary culture. In Without Criteria, Steven Shaviro proposes and explores a philosophical fantasy: imagine a world in which Alfred North Whitehead takes the place of Martin Heidegger. What if Whitehead, instead of Heidegger, had set the agenda for postmodern thought? Heidegger asks, “Why is there something, rather than nothing?” Whitehead asks, “How is it that there is always something new?” In a world where everything from popular music to DNA is being sampled and recombined, argues Shaviro, Whitehead's question is the truly urgent one. Without Criteria is Shaviro's experiment in rethinking postmodern theory, especially the theory of aesthetics, from a point of view that hearkens back to Whitehead rather than Heidegger. In working through the ideas of Whitehead and Deleuze, Shaviro also appeals to Kant, arguing that certain aspects of Kant's thought pave the way for the philosophical “constructivism” embraced by both Whitehead and Deleuze. Kant, Whitehead, and Deleuze are not commonly grouped together, but the juxtaposition of them in Without Criteria helps to shed light on a variety of issues that are of concern to contemporary art and media practices.

Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
Food Sobriety is for anyone who wants to lose weight. More than a diet, it offers a philosophical alternative to the neurosis of our modern food culture based on the dietary traditions of rural Latin America.The science behind Food Sobriety is light and fun, while the recipes and menus provided are easy and inexpensive. What¿s more, while working to improve your health, you will be engaged in a spirited exploration of the intersection of diet, economics, social justice, racism, and exploitation.The Food Sobriety approach was inspired by the author¿s own experiences with weight loss while working in Nicaragua. Nicaragua is the second poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, yet it has obesity rates on a par with the those in the USA. Only a generation ago, Nicaragua had near zero obesity. How this change happened so captivated author Dan Fenyvesi that he left his ordinary life as a dietitian and nutrition professor to spend three years in Nicaragua, including ¿ via a Fulbright Scholar grant ¿ a year teaching at the National University of Nicaragua.In Fenyvesi¿s studies, he found that Nicaraguans who still ate a traditional diet were slim and fit. Adopting elements of both their diet and their refreshing perspective on life, Fenyvesi has since helped hundreds of his North American patients lose weight.
