    This article develops a novel reading of the threefold division of modes of historicization in Nietzsche's "Uses and Disadvantages of History for Life". It argues that Nietzsche's stance is closely matched, and indirectly responds, to specific features of the argument for progress in human history that Kant presents in "Conflict of the Faculties". Kant had hit upon interest, boredom, publicity, and forgetting as systematic problems for the philosophy of history, and Nietzsche's thought on history takes up these concerns. I argue that Nietzsche's reaction to these Kantian problems prompted him to subtly dissociate historicization and historicity. This manoeuver allowed him to counter the conceptual challenges Kant had established and to align his notions on history with those on ethical normativity in lived life, embracing what he elsewhere rejected as a “"moral ontology." Este artículo desarrolla una lectura novedosa de la triple división de los modos de historización en "Ventajas e inconvenientes de la historia para la vida" de Nietzsche. Se defiende que la postura de Nietzsche está estrechamente emparejada con las características específicas del argumento del progreso en la historia humana que Kant presenta en el "Conflicto de las Facultades" respondiendo indirectamente a ese escrito. Kant había señalado el interés, el aburrimiento, la publicidad y el olvido como problemas sistemáticos para la filosofía de la historia, y el pensamiento de Nietzsche sobre la historia retoma estas preocupaciones. Se sostiene que la reacción de Nietzsche a estos problemas kantianos le llevó a disociar sutilmente la historización de la historicidad. Esta maniobra le permitió replicar a los desafíos conceptuales que Kant había establecido y alinear sus nociones sobre la historia con las de la normatividad ética en la vida vivida, abrazando lo que en otros lugares rechazaba como una "ontología moral".

  2. Depth and death : on history, humanitarianism, and mortuary culture

    The present article proposes a re-reading of what "inclusion" into the sphere of the historical actually means in modern European historical discourse. It argues that this re-reading permits challenging a powerful, but problematic norm of ontological homogeneity as something to be achieved in and by historical discourse. At least some of the more conceptually profound challenges that accounts of "deep history" - of very distant pasts - pose to historical discourse have to do with pursuits of this norm. Historical theory has the potential of responding to some of these challenges and actually reverting them back at the practice of accounting for deep times in historical writing. The argument proceeds, in a first step, by analyzing the ties between modern European mortuary cultures and historical writing. In a second step, the history of humanitarian moralities is brought to bear on the analysis, in order to make visible, thirdly, the fractured presences of deep time in modern-era and contemporary historical writing. The fractures in question emerge, the article argues, from the ontological heterogeneity of historical knowledge. So in the end, a position beyond ontological homogeneity is adumbrated.

  3. Moral seascapes : on the ethics and aesthetics of maritime emergency
    Erschienen: 28.10.2024

    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.

  5. Seascapes of the drowned: Günther Uecker and the iconography of the dead of shipwreck

    European visual culture has not supplied any even remotely realistic iconography of the dead of drowning; euphemistic tendencies are even more abundant than in other domains of the representation of the dead. [...] I will pursue the notion, here, that the particular taboo around the dead of drowning is an indication that the drowned carry a specific symbolic significance. The apotropaic or avoidance iconography of the drowned is, I will argue, a privileged site for understanding crucial interconnections of modern European visual and moral cultures; and these interconnections are not stable but form a particular history of meanings, symbols, and signs that unfolds in what one might call seascapes of the drowned. I will start out from a point that may seem tangential, but is crucial to the problem at hand: this is the personalized genre of the "nail image" ("Nagelbild") in the work of German artist Günther Uecker (*1930). I will then insert this image type in a trajectory of the modern iconography of the dead of drowning, from the 19th century to the present.
