Paperback. Condition: New. Orientalism, Philology, and the Illegibility of the Modern World examines the philology of orientalism. It discusses how European (and in particular German) orientalism has influenced the modern understanding of how language accesses reality and offers a critical reinterpretation of orientalism, ontology and modernity.This book pushes an innovative focus on the global history of knowledge as entangled between European and non-European cultures. Drawing from formal oriental studies, epigraphy, travel literature, and theology, Henning Trüper explores how the attempt to appropriate the world by attaching language to the notion of a 'real' reference in the world ultimately produced a crisis of meaning. In the process, Trüper convincingly challenges received understandings of the intellectual genealogies of oriental scholarship and its practices. This ground-breaking study is a meaningful contribution to current discourses about philology and significantly adds to our understanding about the relationship between discursive practices, cultural agendas, and political systems. As such, it will be of immense value to scholars researching Europe and the modern world, the history of philology, and those seeking to historicise the prevalent debates in theory.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Historical Teleologies in the Modern World tracks the fragmentation and proliferation of teleological understandings of history - the notion that history had to be explained as a goal-directed process - in Europe and beyond throughout the 19th and into the 20th century. Historical teleologies have profoundly informed a variety of other disciplines, including modern philosophy, natural history, literature, humanitarian and religious philanthropism, the political thought and practice of revolution, emancipation, imperialism, colonialism and anti-colonialism, the conceptualization of universal humankind, and the understanding of modernity in general. By exploring the extension and plurality of historical teleology, the essays in this volume revise the history of historicity in the modern period. Historical Teleologies in the Modern World casts doubt on the idea that a single, if powerful, conception of time could function as the unifying principle of all modern historicity, instead pursuing an investigation of the plurality of modern historicities and its underlying structures. By bringing together Western and non-Western histories, this book provides the first extended treatment of the idea of historical teleology. It will be of great value to students and scholars of modern global and intellectual history. …

Gr.-8°, Ppbd. Condition: Wie neu. IX, 437 S., mit 12 s/w-Abb. Neuwertiges Ex. / Fine Copy // Was trägt die Schreibpraxis zur Geschichtsschreibung bei? Was bedeutet ihre unabdingbare Schriftlichkeit für das historische Wissen? Henning Trüper erkundet anhand von Alltagspraktiken des Schreibens das Arbeitsleben eines Historikers, des belgischen Mediävisten François Louis Ganshof (1895-1980). Der Gang seiner Untersuchung quert Schreibsituationen und Textsorten verschiedenster Art und verfolgt über die Bruchlinien des 20. Jahrhunderts hinweg methodologische Diskurse; Verfahren der Historisierung; die Herstellung wissenschaftlicher Soziabilität im Schreiben; und schließlich die Arbeit am historischen Text selbst. Ob als Autor, Leser, Lehrer, Student, Polemiker, Diplomat, Zeuge oder bloße Stimme im Radio: Ganshof, der Historiker, blieb stets der Papierarbeit, einem Ensemble kleinteiliger Routinen und Provisorien ohne zentrale Steuerungsinstanz, verhaftet. Das Band zwischen Papierkram und historischem Wissen blieb, so zeigt die vorliegende Arbeit, unlösbar. ISBN: 9783161531774 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 784.…

Paperback. Condition: New. New framework for the aesthetic representation of the sea.We are no strangers today to visual representations of human suffering at sea: the refugee crisis that continues to play out in the seascape between Europe and Africa (and not only there) yields an ever-growing archive of humanitarian tragedy. As both a visual backdrop and a lethal medium of unequal mobility, maritime space and landscape play a significant role in mediating the ethical demands of this crisis. Yet, there has been little exploration of the longer history of morality's role in our understanding of aesthetic representations of the sea. The diverse contributions in Moral Seascapes explore the various symbolic forms through which these shifting moral norms and values have been manifested, contributing to debates concerning the place of the sea in visual and literary cultures and the history of morality and emotion, as well as the emergence of modern subjectivity.Drawing on a range of interdisciplinary perspectives such as visual culture, experimental art history, literary studies, history and philosophy, Moral Seascapes develops distinctive new insights into the relationship between the moral cultures of modernity and the image of the sea.…
