    Formations of the (Im)Possible: A Prolegomenon -- Charaka’s Pharmacia -- Vyasa’s Paravisions -- Bharata’s Performative Teleosis -- Sarngadeva’s Primal Sonances -- Manu’s Mnemopraxials -- (A)Para Poiesis -- Mnemoscapes of Water: The Vaangmaya of Rains and Rivers in Indian Traditions -- Teleocultural Mediations: In Performing Traditions of the Ramayana -- Inventions of the Literary and Affirmations of Inheritance: The Enduring Legacies of Viswanatha Satyanarayana. This book focuses on the cohering elements across various texts and traditions of India. It engages with several significant works from the Sanskrit tradition and emphasizes the need to move beyond colonial and postcolonial engagements with the enduring cultural pasts of India. The chapters are grouped in three main parts: accented rhythms, dispersed mnemoscapes and inventive iterations. It addresses questions such as: what enabled cultural communication across very divergent geographical, temporal, locational contexts and among different cultural formations of India over millennia? What is this shareable impulse that pulsates across the domains of dance, sculpture, painting, poetry, dharma, music, medicine, the lore of rivers and the epics? It explains how modern Indian languages and especially their creative and reflective nodes are unthinkable without the intricately woven textures of these interfaces and their responsive receptions. This book is of interest to philosophers, humanities students, researchers and professors as well as people interested in exploring alternatives to European traditions of thought without an alibi. .

    Introduction -- Chapter 1: Michel Serres’s Biosemiotic Thought: Writing the “Immense Rhapsody” or “Great Story” of Life -- Chapter 2: Edgar Morin’s Complex, “Ecologized” Thought: The Ubiquity of “Informational Capital” on the Battlefield of Life in the COVID-19 Era -- Chapter 3: The Biosemiosic Gaze of the “Wholly Other” and the Philosophical Exercise of “Limitrophy” in Jacques Derrida’s Posthumous Philosophy -- Chapter 4: Michel Onfray’s Biosemiotic, Materialistic, and Post-Monotheistic Reworking of Human and Other-Than-Human Semiosis -- Chapter 5: Dominique Lestel’s Pioneering Biosemiotic Vision of “The Enchanted Space of Trans-Specific Communication” Within Hybrid Societies. Contemporary French Environmental Thought in the Post-COVID-19 Era is focused on the fields of biosemiotics, linguistics, ecocriticism, and environmental ethics. Closely aligning with Sustainable Development Goal 13.1, Keith Moser’s study aims to strengthen resilience to climate-related hazards by drawing on ecological theories developed by French philosophers in conversation with biosemiotic principles. Not only does the novel theoretical framework offered by biosemiotic interpretations of the universe and our place in it represent an indispensable conceptual tool for understanding the unprecedented medical challenges at the dawn of a new millennium, but it also beckons us to think harder about the environmental crisis that threatens the continued existence of all sentient beings who call the biosphere home. This book also highlights the richness, diversity, and utility of the ecological theories developed by the French philosophers Michel Serres, Edgar Morin, Jacques Derrida, Dominique Lestel, and Michel Onfray in addition to how they engage with biosemiotic principles. Taken together, the book probes the scientific, linguistic, philosophical, and ethical implications of biosemiotic theories in a post-pandemic world from an environmental and medical perspective.

    This collection addresses the perennial philosophical and theological issues of human finitude and the potentiality for evil. The contributors approach these issues from perspectives in Continental philosophy relating to phenomenology, philosophical hermeneutics, rabbinical traditions, drawing upon the work of Immanuel Kant, Søren Kierkegaard, and Paul Ricoeur. While centering on the traditional theme of theodicy, this volume is also oriented to the phenomenology of religion, with contributions across religions and intellectual traditions 1. Introduction -- 2. The Concept of Anxiety and Kant -- 3. Are Finite and Infinite Love the Same? Erich Przywara and Jean-Luc Marion of Analogy and Univocity -- 4. The World Seen from the Outside -- 5.

    Reconfiguring Nietzsche’s seminal impact on modernist literature and culture, this book presents a distinctive new reading of modernism by exploring his sustained philosophical engagement with nihilism and its inextricable tie to pain and sickness. Arguing that modernist texts dramatize the frailty of the ill, the impotent, and the traumatised modern subject denuded of the traditional means to justify or redeem one’s suffering, it uses the Nietzschean diagnoses of nihilism and what he calls 'ressentiment', the entwined feelings of powerlessness and vindictiveness, as heuristic tools to remap the fictional landscapes of Lawrence, Kafka, and Beckett. Lucid, authoritative and accessible, this book will appeal internationally to literature and philosophy scholars and undergraduates as well as to readers in medical and sociological fields 1. Introduction: Nietzsche, Nihilism and Modernism -- 2. Friedrich Nietzsche, Nihilism and Meaningless Suffering -- 3. D. H. Lawrence’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover and the Erotic Transcendence of Nihilism -- 4. Franz Kafka’s The Trial and the Interpretation of Suffering -- 5. Samuel Beckett’s Endgame and the Economy of Ressentiment -- 6. Conclusion: Affective Modernism

    1. Introduction -- 2. On the Powers of the Arche-screen -- 3. Screens as Prostheses of Our Bodies -- 4. Images and Words -- 5. The “Transparency 2.0” Ideology -- 6.Screens’r’us - From Bodies with Prostheses to Bodies As “Quasi-Prostheses”? -- 7. Conclusion. This book shows that screens don’t just distribute the visible and the invisible, but have always mediated our body's relationships with the physical and anthropological-cultural environment. By combining a series of historical-genealogical reconstructions going back to prehistoric times with the analysis of present and near-future technologies, the authors show that screens have always incorporated not only the hiding/showing functions but also the protecting/exposing ones, as the Covid-19 pandemic retaught us. The intertwining of these functions allows the authors to criticize the mainstream ideas of images as inseparable from screens, of words as opposed to images, and of what they call “Transparency 2.0” ideology, which currently dominates our socio-political life. Moreover, they show how wearable technologies don’t approximate us to a presumed disappearance of screens but seem to draw a circular pathway back to using our bodies as screens. This raises new relational, ethical, and political questions, which this book helps to illuminate.

    1. Introduction: Philosophy of the People -- 2. Nature and Nature -- 3. Emerson and Peirce -- 4. The Crack in Everything: Emerson and Žižek on the Dialectical Nature of Philosophy and the World -- 5. Evolutionary Existentialism of Emerson and Paz -- 6. Postmodern Emerson and the Sorites of Ethical Difference: Emerson and Irigaray -- 7. Emerson and Beauvoir: Seriousness as a Form of Clutching -- 8. Emerson and Heidegger on Thinking -- 9. Emerson and Rorty: Baring and Bearing Reality -- 10. Emerson and Derrida: Traces of Meanings, Genres without Borders -- 11. Emerson and Ta-Nehisi Coates: On the Ideas We Find Ourselves in and on the Way Out -- 12. Conclusion. This book considers the role of postmodernism (skepticism towards metanarratives and anti-essentialism) in Ralph Waldo Emerson's philosophy by putting it in conversation with key 20th and 21st century thinkers such as Beauvoir, Coates, Derrida, Paz, Rorty, and Zizek. Postmodern Emerson shows how Emersonian skepticism to metanarratives such as sexism, racism, Beauvoiran "serious values," and others, can help us face some of society's gravest contemporary social and philosophical challenges. Methodologically, the book exemplifies Emersonian postmodernism by defying traditional philosophical metanarratives about the difference between high and low culture or serious and ridiculous subjects, and Emerson with what would seem to be his opposite. This is itself a postmodern gesture, breaking rules of genre and topic to make unlikely but interesting connections. Above all, this book proves that in this time of social division and widespread despair, Emerson can help. .

    Zusammenfassung: “You must go on. I can’t go on. I’ll go on.” These are some of the most quoted lines written by Samuel Beckett, which speak to the impulse of persevering in times of crisis and impossibility. Yet few readers of Beckett agree about what this paradoxical formula could mean, let alone what mode of engagement it would seem to indicate, be it committed, autonomous, or something else entirely. This volume of essays explores what that mode of engagement could be, all the while elucidating the ethical and political stakes of the “ongoing” in both Beckett’s life and work. Across multiple disciplines in the humanities, the authors delve into questions of political subjectivity and representation, the ethics of powerlessness and refusal, the aesthetics of syncopation and destitution, multimedia experiments between genre, as well as Beckett’s wider impact on transnational itineraries of modernism and philosophy up to the contemporary. Michael Krimper teaches in the French and English departments at New York University, USA, where he received his PhD in Comparative Literature. His forthcoming book, Out of Work: The Refusal of Literature from Melville to Blanchot, examines the crystallization of an antiwork aesthetics and politics in late modernist writing and theory. He is also the editor of a recent special issue for the Journal of Beckett Studies that published Beckett’s lost translations on the Marquis de Sade. His articles, reviews, and translations have appeared in New Literary History, diacritics, SubStance, parallax, October, the Journal of Italian Philosophy, and the Los Angeles Review of Books, among other venues. Gabriel Quigley is a doctoral candidate in the Department of Comparative Literature at New York University, USA. Combining comparative modernisms, continental philosophy, and postcolonial theory, his work focuses on retrieving concealed paradigms of possibility and freedom. His articles and translations have been published or are forthcoming in Samuel Beckett Today/Aujourd'hui, French Studies Bulletin, Derrida Today, Critical Inquiry, Journal of Modern Literature, and Interventions: International Journal of Postcolonial Studies

    Zusammenfassung: “This book is provocative, compelling, and beautifully written. Zechner has transformed the pain of reading into a very pleasurable experience.” —Elissa Marder (Emory University, USA) The Violence of Reading: Literature and Philosophy at the Threshold of Pain expounds the scene of reading as one that produces an overwhelmed body exposed to uncontainable forms of violence. The book argues that the act of reading induces a representational instability that causes the referential function of language to collapse. This breakdown releases a type of “linguistic pain” (Scarry; Butler; Hamacher) that indicates a constitutive wounding of the reading body. The wound of language marks a rupture between linguistic reality and the phenomenal world. Exploring this rupture in various ways, the book brings together texts and genres from diverse traditions and offers close examinations of the rhetoric of masochism (Sacher-Masoch; Deleuze), the relation between reading and abuse (Nietzsche; Proust; Jelinek), the sublime experience of reading (Kant; Kafka; de Man), the “novel of the institution” (Musil; Campe), and literary suicide (Bachmann; Berryman; Okkervil River). Dominik Zechner served as the Artemis A.W. and Martha Joukowsky Postdoctoral Fellow at Brown University’s Pembroke Center and is currently an Assistant Professor at Rutgers University Zechner is the co-editor of Forces of Education: Walter Benjamin and the Politics of Pedagogy (Bloomsbury, 2023) and Thresholds, Encounters: Paul Celan and the Claim of Philology (SUNY, 2023). He is also the co-editor of a special issue of parallax (“Initiations: The Pitfalls of Beginning,” vol. 28.3, 2022) and the editor of a special issue of Modern Language Notes (“What is a Prize?” vol. 131.5, 2016)

    This book provides a philosophical overview of Umberto Eco's historical and cultural development as a unique, internationally recognized public intellectual who communicates his ideas to both an academic and a popular audience. It describes Eco’s intellectual development from his childhood during World War II and student involvement as a Catholic youth activist and scholar of the Middle Ages, to his early writings on the "openness" of modern works such as Joyce's Finnegans Wake. Merrell also explores Eco’s pioneering role in semiotics and his later career as a novelist 1. The Intermediate Thinker -- 2. The Intellectual Species -- 3. A Medievalist in Hibernation -- 4.

    1. Introduction -- 2. On the Powers of the Arche-screen -- 3. Screens as Prostheses of Our Bodies -- 4. Images and Words -- 5. The “Transparency 2.0” Ideology -- 6.Screens’r’us - From Bodies with Prostheses to Bodies As “Quasi-Prostheses”? -- 7. Conclusion. This book shows that screens don’t just distribute the visible and the invisible, but have always mediated our body's relationships with the physical and anthropological-cultural environment. By combining a series of historical-genealogical reconstructions going back to prehistoric times with the analysis of present and near-future technologies, the authors show that screens have always incorporated not only the hiding/showing functions but also the protecting/exposing ones, as the Covid-19 pandemic retaught us. The intertwining of these functions allows the authors to criticize the mainstream ideas of images as inseparable from screens, of words as opposed to images, and of what they call “Transparency 2.0” ideology, which currently dominates our socio-political life. Moreover, they show how wearable technologies don’t approximate us to a presumed disappearance of screens but seem to draw a circular pathway back to using our bodies as screens. This raises new relational, ethical, and political questions, which this book helps to illuminate.

    1. Introduction: Philosophy of the People -- 2. Nature and Nature -- 3. Emerson and Peirce -- 4. The Crack in Everything: Emerson and Žižek on the Dialectical Nature of Philosophy and the World -- 5. Evolutionary Existentialism of Emerson and Paz -- 6.

Emerson and Rorty: Baring and Bearing Reality -- 10. Emerson and Derrida: Traces of Meanings, Genres without Borders -- 11. Emerson and Ta-Nehisi Coates: On the Ideas We Find Ourselves in and on the Way Out -- 12. Conclusion. This book considers the role of postmodernism (skepticism towards metanarratives and anti-essentialism) in Ralph Waldo Emerson's philosophy by putting it in conversation with key 20th and 21st century thinkers such as Beauvoir, Coates, Derrida, Paz, Rorty, and Zizek. Postmodern Emerson shows how Emersonian skepticism to metanarratives such as sexism, racism, Beauvoiran "serious values," and others, can help us face some of society's gravest contemporary social and philosophical challenges. Methodologically, the book exemplifies Emersonian postmodernism by defying traditional philosophical metanarratives about the difference between high and low culture or serious and ridiculous subjects, and Emerson with what would seem to be his opposite. This is itself a postmodern gesture, breaking rules of genre and topic to make unlikely but interesting connections. Above all, this book proves that in this time of social division and widespread despair, Emerson can help. .

    Introduction -- Chapter 1: Michel Serres’s Biosemiotic Thought: Writing the “Immense Rhapsody” or “Great Story” of Life -- Chapter 2: Edgar Morin’s Complex, “Ecologized” Thought: The Ubiquity of “Informational Capital” on the Battlefield of Life in the COVID-19 Era -- Chapter 3: The Biosemiosic Gaze of the “Wholly Other” and the Philosophical Exercise of “Limitrophy” in Jacques Derrida’s Posthumous Philosophy -- Chapter 4: Michel Onfray’s Biosemiotic, Materialistic, and Post-Monotheistic Reworking of Human and Other-Than-Human Semiosis -- Chapter 5: Dominique Lestel’s Pioneering Biosemiotic Vision of “The Enchanted Space of Trans-Specific Communication” Within Hybrid Societies. Contemporary French Environmental Thought in the Post-COVID-19 Era is focused on the fields of biosemiotics, linguistics, ecocriticism, and environmental ethics. Closely aligning with Sustainable Development Goal 13.1, Keith Moser’s study aims to strengthen resilience to climate-related hazards by drawing on ecological theories developed by French philosophers in conversation with biosemiotic principles. Not only does the novel theoretical framework offered by biosemiotic interpretations of the universe and our place in it represent an indispensable conceptual tool for understanding the unprecedented medical challenges at the dawn of a new millennium, but it also beckons us to think harder about the environmental crisis that threatens the continued existence of all sentient beings who call the biosphere home. This book also highlights the richness, diversity, and utility of the ecological theories developed by the French philosophers Michel Serres, Edgar Morin, Jacques Derrida, Dominique Lestel, and Michel Onfray in addition to how they engage with biosemiotic principles. Taken together, the book probes the scientific, linguistic, philosophical, and ethical implications of biosemiotic theories in a post-pandemic world from an environmental and medical perspective.

    Poetry, or poiēsis, has long been understood as a practice of making. But how are experiments in the making of poetic forms related to formal making in science and engineering? The Limits of Fabrication takes up this question in the context of recent developments in nanoscale materials science, investigating concepts and ideologies of form at stake in new approaches to material construction. Tracing the direct pertinence of fields crucial to the new materials science (nanotechnology, biotechnology, crystallography, and geodesic design) in the work of Shanxing Wang, Caroline Bergvall, Christian Bök, and Ronald Johnson back to the midcentury development of Charles Olson’s “objectist” poetics, Nathan Brown carves out a tradition of constructivist, nonorganic poetics that has developed in conversation with science and engineering.While proposing a new approach to the relation of technē (craft, skill) and poiēsis (making, forming), this book also intervenes in philosophical debates concerning the concept of the object, the distinction between organic and inorganic matter, theories of self-organization, and the relation between “design” and “nature.” Engaging with Heidegger, Agamben, Whitehead, Stiegler, and Nancy, Brown shows that materials science and materialist poetics offer crucial resources for thinking through the direction of contemporary materialist philosophy.

    Reconfiguring Nietzsche’s seminal impact on modernist literature and culture, this book presents a distinctive new reading of modernism by exploring his sustained philosophical engagement with nihilism and its inextricable tie to pain and sickness. Arguing that modernist texts dramatize the frailty of the ill, the impotent, and the traumatised modern subject denuded of the traditional means to justify or redeem one’s suffering, it uses the Nietzschean diagnoses of nihilism and what he calls 'ressentiment', the entwined feelings of powerlessness and vindictiveness, as heuristic tools to remap the fictional landscapes of Lawrence, Kafka, and Beckett. Lucid, authoritative and accessible, this book will appeal internationally to literature and philosophy scholars and undergraduates as well as to readers in medical and sociological fields.

    The project offers a collection of new interdisciplinary critical autoethnographic engagements with Hélène Cixous écriture feminine and work Three steps on the ladder of writing. Critical autoethnography shares a reciprocal, and inter-animating relationship with Hélène Cixous’ écriture feminine (“feminine writing”), and in this collection authors explore that inter-animation by explicitly engaging with Three steps on the ladder of writing. Three steps is a poetic, insightful, and ultimately moving reflection on the writing process and explores three distinct areas essential for writing: The School of the Dead—the notion that something or someone must die in order for good writing to be born; The School of Dreams—the crucial role dreams play in literary inspiration and output; and The School of Roots—the importance of depth in the 'nether realms' in all aspects of writing. Topics covered include: ways Cixous’ work can address the need for loss and reparation in writing critical autoethnography, how Cixous’ writing “makes our body speak” through concepts of birth and the body in, through and of critical autoethnography, whether writing in this way recast and reform prevailing orders of domination and oppression, and how Cixous’ writing around the ethics of loving and giving translates into response-able and non-violent forms of critical autoethnography in relation to otherness and difference. In this collection, we invite you to “Let us go to the school of [critical autoethnographic] writing” (Cixous, 1993, p. 3) with the work of Hélène Cixous, and speak in a different way and through a different medium of academic language, in an approach that reveals the tensions, the paradoxes, the pains and the pleasures of writing with critical autoethnography in the contemporary university.

    “You must go on. I can’t go on. I’ll go on.” These are some of the most quoted lines written by Samuel Beckett, which speak to the impulse of persevering in times of crisis and impossibility. Yet few readers of Beckett agree about what this paradoxical formula could mean, let alone what mode of engagement it would seem to indicate, be it committed, autonomous, or something else entirely. This volume of essays explores what that mode of engagement could be, all the while elucidating the ethical and political stakes of the “ongoing” in both Beckett’s life and work. Across multiple disciplines in the humanities, the authors delve into questions of political subjectivity and representation, the ethics of powerlessness and refusal, the aesthetics of syncopation and destitution, multimedia experiments between genre, as well as Beckett’s wider impact on transnational itineraries of modernism and philosophy up to the contemporary. Michael Krimper teaches in the French and English departments at New York University, USA, where he received his PhD in Comparative Literature. His forthcoming book, Out of Work: The Refusal of Literature from Melville to Blanchot, examines the crystallization of an antiwork aesthetics and politics in late modernist writing and theory. He is also the editor of a recent special issue for the Journal of Beckett Studies that published Beckett’s lost translations on the Marquis de Sade. His articles, reviews, and translations have appeared in New Literary History, diacritics, SubStance, parallax, October, the Journal of Italian Philosophy, and the Los Angeles Review of Books, among other venues. Gabriel Quigley is a doctoral candidate in the Department of Comparative Literature at New York University, USA. Combining comparative modernisms, continental philosophy, and postcolonial theory, his work focuses on retrieving concealed paradigms of possibility and freedom. His articles and translations have been published or are forthcoming in Samuel Beckett Today/Aujourd'hui, French Studies Bulletin, Derrida Today, Critical Inquiry, Journal of Modern Literature, and Interventions: International Journal of Postcolonial Studies.

    Poetry, or poiēsis, has long been understood as a practice of making. But how are experiments in the making of poetic forms related to formal making in science and engineering? The Limits of Fabrication takes up this question in the context of recent developments in nanoscale materials science, investigating concepts and ideologies of form at stake in new approaches to material construction. Tracing the direct pertinence of fields crucial to the new materials science (nanotechnology, biotechnology, crystallography, and geodesic design) in the work of Shanxing Wang, Caroline Bergvall, Christian Bök, and Ronald Johnson back to the midcentury development of Charles Olson’s “objectist” poetics, Nathan Brown carves out a tradition of constructivist, nonorganic poetics that has developed in conversation with science and engineering.While proposing a new approach to the relation of technē (craft, skill) and poiēsis (making, forming), this book also intervenes in philosophical debates concerning the concept of the object, the distinction between organic and inorganic matter, theories of self-organization, and the relation between “design” and “nature.” Engaging with Heidegger, Agamben, Whitehead, Stiegler, and Nancy, Brown shows that materials science and materialist poetics offer crucial resources for thinking through the direction of contemporary materialist philosophy.

    "You must go on. I can't go on. I'll go on." These are some of the most quoted lines written by Samuel Beckett, which speak to the impulse of persevering in times of crisis and impossibility. Yet few readers of Beckett agree about what this paradoxical formula could mean, let alone what mode of engagement it would seem to indicate, be it committed, autonomous, or something else entirely. This volume of essays explores what that mode of engagement could be, all the while elucidating the ethical and political stakes of the "ongoing" in both Beckett's life and work. Across multiple disciplines in the humanities, the authors delve into questions of political subjectivity and representation, the ethics of powerlessness and refusal, the aesthetics of syncopation and destitution, multimedia experiments between genre, as well as Beckett's wider impact on transnational itineraries of modernism and philosophy up to the contemporary. Michael Krimper teaches in the French and English departments at New York University, USA, where he received his PhD in Comparative Literature. His forthcoming book, Out of Work: The Refusal of Literature from Melville to Blanchot, examines the crystallization of an antiwork aesthetics and politics in late modernist writing and theory. He is also the editor of a recent special issue for the Journal of Beckett Studies that published Beckett's lost translations on the Marquis de Sade. His articles, reviews, and translations have appeared in New Literary History, diacritics, SubStance, parallax, October, the Journal of Italian Philosophy, and the Los Angeles Review of Books, among other venues. Gabriel Quigley is a doctoral candidate in the Department of Comparative Literature at New York University, USA. Combining comparative modernisms, continental philosophy, and postcolonial theory, his work focuses on retrieving concealed paradigms of possibility and freedom. His articles and translations have been published or are forthcoming in Samuel Beckett Today/Aujourd'hui, French Studies Bulletin, Derrida Today, Critical Inquiry, Journal of Modern Literature, and Interventions: International Journal of Postcolonial Studies.

    This book shows that screens don't just distribute the visible and the invisible, but have always mediated our body's relationships with the physical and anthropological-cultural environment. By combining a series of historical-genealogical reconstructions going back to prehistoric times with the analysis of present and near-future technologies, the authors show that screens have always incorporated not only the hiding/showing functions but also the protecting/exposing ones, as the Covid-19 pandemic retaught us. The intertwining of these functions allows the authors to criticize the mainstream ideas of images as inseparable from screens, of words as opposed to images, and of what they call "Transparency 2.0" ideology, which currently dominates our socio-political life. Moreover, they show how wearable technologies don't approximate us to a presumed disappearance of screens but seem to draw a circular pathway back to using our bodies as screens. This raises new relational, ethical, and political questions, which this book helps to illuminate.
