Podcasts about Maurice Blanchot

In this episode, Will reads Maurice Blanchot's essay Friendship, a haunting reflection on the impersonal and ineffable nature of true friendship. Blanchot challenges the idea of friendship as mutual understanding, revealing instead a relation marked by silence, distance, and exposure. This reading anticipates our upcoming "Philosophers and the Friend" reading group beginning May 18, featuring works by Blanchot, Foucault, Derrida, and more.Reading group syllabus: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VF7IZDocnkoK-vgwFNRFEXCOseBvNQJA/viewSupport the showVintagia Pre-Launch: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/acidhorizon/vintagia-i-ching-oracle-for-psychogeographers-and-creatives Support the podcast:https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/acidhorizonAcid Horizon on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcast Boycott Watkins Media: https://xenogothic.com/2025/03/17/boycott-watkins-statement/ Join The Schizoanalysis Project: https://discord.gg/4WtaXG3QxnSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438Merch: http://www.crit-drip.comSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438 LEPHT HAND: https://www.patreon.com/LEPHTHANDHappy Hour at Hippel's (Adam's blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.com​Revolting Bodies (Will's Blog): https://revoltingbodies.com​Split Infinities (Craig's Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/​Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/ and https://thecominginsurrection.bandcamp.com/

Sofia Samatar speaks with Kate Wolf about her new book Opacities: On Writing and the Writing Life. Opacities is addressed to a fellow writer, Samatar's close friend Kate Zambreno, and considers both the process of composing a book—the wellspring of inspiration, wishes and anxieties that accompany it— as well as the distance between a work and its author. Samatar explores how to stay alive as a writer through things such as community, extensive reading, and research alongside the dissonant ways writers are often asked to codify their identities and constantly promote themselves. Drawing on the words of writers like Eduard Glissant, Maurice Blanchot, Clarice Lispector, and Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, Opacities is at heart a book about the furnace of creativity, and the fuel that keeps it burning despite its many trials, risks, and disappointments. Also, Eugene Lim, author of Fog and Car, returns to recommend Too Loud a Solitude by Bohumil Hrabal.

This one is deep so see tons of explanatory resources below. The philosophy talk turns to political talk (easier to grok) after about 15 minutes, but the philosophical context adds a lot of richness to the latter conversation. Patricia MacCormack is driving productive tension between philosophy and political action. Her Ahuman Manifesto is strongly recommended, even to those who may take issue with it in principle (anti-natalism! anti-idpol! anti-human!), because it makes a forceful argument for a politics based in empathy and care as applied to everyone and every thing. Core concepts you might not be familiar with:Posthumanism — if you recall, a kind of running theme of the podcast is "posthumanism is kinda sus.” As a philosophical stance, it means an expansion of categories of agency and vitality, thought and creativity, to forces beyond the mere human. Rosi Braidotti (Patricia MacCormack's PhD advisor) was one of the first major forces in this field, and Patricia has written extensively on it as well (see her Posthuman Ethics). In practice, of course, posthumanism gets confused pretty quickly — Reza kicks off the first episode of the pod with a brutal critique that Patricia sustains here: many people tend to use posthumanism to advance a kind of hard anthropocentrism applied to everything, a way of accidentally inflating the human all the way out to the cosmic level. It's likely good to critique anthropocentrism at all scales, but it is a very challenging thing to do in practice without carrying out what Reza calls “inflation”, assigning anthropogenic models to everything from fish to stones to electromagnetism. E.g. "my politics include this rock" turns pretty quickly to "this rock has some vital characteristics I'm imposing upon it through my own human gaze."Transhumanism — kind of reversal of the posthuman project. Think Neuralink, human cloning, or dramatic surgical alterations. Transhumanism is humanism transcended, the human project continues but with greater veracity, constructed to conquer the future. A nice quote, per the Xenofeminist Manifesto (not quite a transhumanist project but also not not one) is "if nature is unjust, change nature." If the human as presently understood is insufficiently capable to handle its futures, change the human, make it live longer, act more efficiently, move faster.Asemiosis — the absence or breakdown of traditional semiotic processes, where signs cease to function within the established systems of meaning. This is what happens when we operate within a superabundance of signs and references on massive scales. Don't worry about this one too much.Potestas to Potentia — lmao ok. Potestas in Spinoza refers to the word “power” as we most often understand it, authority, domination, or control. Power OVER. Potentia, on the other hand, refers to power as an intrinsic capacity or potential within an individual or entity. The, uh, power within… so to speak. (Michel Serres concept of “grace”, that MacCormack refers to occasionally, is similar to potential). It's a nice way to think about power without the coercive connotations.Irigaray “letting be” / Serres “stepping aside” — many people have theorized political inaction as a type of action. Check out Bifo Berardi's latest interview on Acid Horizon where he talks about “defection" so sickkkk. This doesn't mean doing nothing, but rather not doing (opting out).Knowledge — this isn't as hard as it comes across. Patricia is basically attacking the need for us to know each other to help each other, to understand each other in order to have empathy for each other. Why? Well, understanding requires communication, which means that information is moving through protocols (e.g. language, digitization, facial expressions, etc…) that are always already encoded with power.Difference — also not so bad! What is difference? You and I are different! Everything is different. For many postmodern philosophers, you can reverse that statement into “difference is everything.” And once you start to think of difference as constructive stuff, well, the world gets quite interesting. For people like Patricia MacCormack, difference is probably a good thing and forces that move to hide, cloak, or suppress difference are probably bad.Art — not what you think art is in this context, like a "painting" for example. Instead, it's an encounter with the unknown, a way of communicating without understanding (this follows from Maurice Blanchot's theories of art as event, which one can also find in a different but not unrelated way in the writings of Alain Badiou, who believes that art is a specific kind of truth different from scientific truth or political truth).HMU via @dis.integrator if I can help with this one.

“Disaster ruins everything, while leaving everything intact.” — Maurice Blanchot, The Writing of Disaster   This week, join Cyrus Palizban and Francis Pedraza, founder of Invisible Technologies, as we discuss the paradoxical nature of disaster. Francis reflects on his personal and professional setbacks, particularly those of Invisible, and relates these experiences to the broader philosophical concepts of expectations, happiness, and ancient Stoic wisdom. Inevitably, the conversation delves into historical and philosophical discussions about the nature of disaster, life, death, and the universe, touching on Eastern and Western philosophies, the illusory aspects of reality, and the concept of self beyond physical and mental identifications. We conclude by contemplating the role of an individual in the grand scheme of existence, urging listeners to embrace life's challenges with a peaceful mind and a sense of agency.

„Ich philosophiere nur im Schrecken” schreibt Jacques Derrida „aber im eingestandenen Schrecken, wahnsinnig zu sein.” In dieser Folge untersuche ich Angst und Schrecken auf ihr Erkenntnispotential. Wenn Angst kein Objekt hat, wie Sigmund Freud uns lehrt, was offenbart sich dann in der Gewissheit der Angsterfahrung? Und wie verhält sich die Angst zum Schrecken? Ich beginne mit Angst als Methode in der ethnologischen Literatur, starre mit Maurice Blanchot und Jacques Lacan in das Auge einer Gottesanbeterin und versuche mich nicht (oder allenfalls leicht) an Jacques Derridas hyperbolischen Spitze des Zweifels zu stechen.

Lars Iyer is back! On this episode I talk to novelist Lars Iyer about the fiction, the writing process, the relation between literature and the world, a writers compulsion to write. We speak about a whole range of writers like Plato, Samuel Beckett,  Maurice Blanchot, Paul Celan, Margaret Duras, Thomas Bernhard. One of the things Lars suggests is that the value of literature is it utter uselessness. Like all good things! Lars is a  Professor of Creative Writing at Newcastle University. He is the author of several academic articles and two monographs on Blanchot -  Blanchot's Vigilance: Literature, Phenomenology and the Ethical  and Blanchot's Communism: Art, Philosophy and the Political.(Palgrave Macmillan 2004, 2005). He is the author of The Spurious Trilogy (Spurious, Dogma and Exodus), Nietzsche and the Burbs (2020) and now My Weil (2023) with Melville House Publishing.

Lídia Jorge é uma das mais internacionais escritoras portuguesas. A sua obra de ficção conta com dezenas de títulos, incluindo os romances O Dia dos Prodígios (1980) -- o primeiro livro --, A Costa dos Murmúrios (1988), O Vento Assobiando nas Gruas (2002) e, mais recentemente, Misericórdia (2022). A sua escrita destaca-se pela originalidade, diversidade de temas (com atenção às mudanças sociais e políticas por que passa o mundo e o país) e por um estilo inconfundível. Os seus livros estão publicados em diversas línguas e têm sido amplamente premiados, quer em Portugal quer no estrangeiro.  -> Ouve A Queda de Ingonish aqui. _______________ Índice: (3:32) Misericórdia: de onde veio o livro e o que explica a recepção que tem tido? (18:13) Como a literatura nos prepara para enfrentar os grandes desafios.

(49:23) Perguntas do público. Livro Ver O Invisível. Sobre Kandinsky, de Michel Henry. Carlos Fuentes e a Literatura como “estrela de três pontas” | Importância dos editores _______________ (Esta conversa foi gravada ao vivo durante o Festival Utopia, em Braga, um evento organizado pela The Book Company. Realizado entre 2 e 12 de novembro, o festival contou com o apoio da Câmara Municipal de Lisboa e o Festival Literário 5L. Para os interessados, recomendo visitar o site do festival e seguir as suas redes sociais. O Utopia já tem data de regresso: novembro de 2024, novamente em Braga.) Foi um privilégio gravar este episódio com Lídia Jorge, uma das mais internacionais entre os escritores portugueses, autora de obras marcantes como "O Dia dos Prodígios", "A Costa dos Murmúrios" e "O Vento Assobiando nas Gruas". Na nossa conversa, falámos sobre o seu romance mais recente, "Misericórdia", e sobre o papel da literatura na sociedade e na nossa vida.  Em apenas um ano, ”Misericórdia" ganhou inúmeros prémios (que eu enumero no início da conversa) e tornou-se já uma obra de referência. A obra narra o último ano de vida de uma mulher idosa num lar de terceira idade. Inspirado num pedido da mãe da autora (em quem a personagem principal é inspirada), o livro apresenta personagens ricas e complexas, que desafiam visões da terceira idade e da vida nos lares como desinteressantes. É um livro simultaneamente sobre a natureza humana - universal - e sobre o desafio actual (para os próprios e para quem cuida deles) de lidar com a longevidade nas sociedades pós-industriais. E, conjuntamente, deve ser isto que explica o sucesso que tem tido. Para quem ainda não leu o livro, um pequeno aviso: embora discutamos alguns detalhes da obra, não revelamos nada que possa diminuir o prazer da leitura. Além disso, a nossa conversa estendeu-se para temas mais amplos, sobre o papel da literatura (tal como outras formas de arte) em fazer-nos olhar o mundo, os outros e nós próprios de forma diferente.  A visão de Lídia Jorge sobre este aspecto foi particularmente enriquecedora. No final, abrimos espaço para perguntas do público, e escolhi incluir a última pergunta (a cujo autor agradeço), pois encaixa bem nos temas que abordámos durante a conversa. ______________ Obrigado aos mecenas do podcast: Francisco Hermenegildo, Ricardo Evangelista, Henrique Pais João Baltazar, Salvador Cunha, Abilio Silva, Tiago Leite, Carlos Martins, Galaró family, Corto Lemos, Miguel Marques, Nuno Costa, Nuno e Ana, João Ribeiro, Helder Miranda, Pedro Lima Ferreira, Cesar Carpinteiro, Luis Fernambuco, Fernando Nunes, Manuel Canelas, Tiago Gonçalves, Carlos Pires, João Domingues, Hélio Bragança da Silva, Sandra Ferreira , Paulo Encarnação , BFDC, António Mexia Santos, Luís Guido, Bruno Heleno Tomás Costa, João Saro, Daniel Correia, Rita Mateus, António Padilha, Tiago Queiroz, Carmen Camacho, João Nelas, Francisco Fonseca, Rafael Santos, Andreia Esteves, Ana Teresa Mota, ARUNE BHURALAL, Mário Lourenço, RB, Maria Pimentel, Luis, Geoffrey Marcelino, Alberto Alcalde, António Rocha Pinto, Ruben de Bragança, João Vieira dos Santos, David Teixeira Alves, Armindo Martins , Carlos Nobre, Bernardo Vidal Pimentel, António Oliveira, Paulo Barros, Nuno Brites, Lígia Violas, Tiago Sequeira, Zé da Radio, João Morais, André Gamito, Diogo Costa, Pedro Ribeiro, Bernardo Cortez Vasco Sá Pinto, David , Tiago Pires, Mafalda Pratas, Joana Margarida Alves Martins, Luis Marques, João Raimundo, Francisco Arantes, Mariana Barosa, Nuno Gonçalves, Pedro Rebelo, Miguel Palhas, Ricardo Duarte, Duarte , Tomás Félix, Vasco Lima, Francisco Vasconcelos, Telmo , José Oliveira Pratas, Jose Pedroso, João Diogo Silva, Joao Diogo, José Proença, João Crispim, João Pinho , Afonso Martins, Robertt Valente, João Barbosa, Renato Mendes, Maria Francisca Couto, Antonio Albuquerque, Ana Sousa Amorim, Francisco Santos, Lara Luís, Manuel Martins, Macaco Quitado, Paulo Ferreira, Diogo Rombo, Francisco Manuel Reis, Bruno Lamas, Daniel Almeida, Patrícia Esquível , Diogo Silva, Luis Gomes, Cesar Correia, Cristiano Tavares, Pedro Gaspar, Gil Batista Marinho, Maria Oliveira, João Pereira, Rui Vilao, João Ferreira, Wedge, José Losa, Hélder Moreira, André Abrantes, Henrique Vieira, João Farinha, Manuel Botelho da Silva, João Diamantino, Ana Rita Laureano, Pedro L, Nuno Malvar, Joel, Rui Antunes7, Tomás Saraiva, Cloé Leal de Magalhães, Joao Barbosa, paulo matos, Fábio Monteiro, Tiago Stock, Beatriz Bagulho, Pedro Bravo, Antonio Loureiro, Hugo Ramos, Inês Inocêncio, Telmo Gomes, Sérgio Nunes, Tiago Pedroso, Teresa Pimentel, Rita Noronha, miguel farracho, José Fangueiro, Zé, Margarida Correia-Neves, Bruno Pinto Vitorino, João Lopes, Joana Pereirinha, Gonçalo Baptista, Dario Rodrigues, tati lima, Pedro On The Road, Catarina Fonseca, JC Pacheco, Sofia Ferreira, Inês Ribeiro, Miguel Jacinto, Tiago Agostinho, Margarida Costa Almeida, Helena Pinheiro, Rui Martins, Fábio Videira Santos, Tomás Lucena, João Freitas, Ricardo Sousa, RJ, Francisco Seabra Guimarães, Carlos Branco, David Palhota, Carlos Castro, Alexandre Alves, Cláudia Gomes Batista, Ana Leal, Ricardo Trindade, Luís Machado, Andrzej Stuart-Thompson, Diego Goulart, Filipa Portela, Paulo Rafael, Paloma Nunes, Marta Mendonca, Teresa Painho, Duarte Cameirão, Rodrigo Silva, José Alberto Gomes, Joao Gama, Cristina Loureiro, Tiago Gama, Tiago Rodrigues, Miguel Duarte, Ana Cantanhede, Artur Castro Freire, Rui Passos Rocha, Pedro Costa Antunes, Sofia Almeida, Ricardo Andrade Guimarães, Daniel Pais, Miguel Bastos, Luís Santos _______________ Esta conversa foi editada por: Hugo Oliveira

In this episode, I interview Michael Snediker, professor of English at the University of Houston, about his book, Contingent Figure: Chronic Pain and Queer Embodiment, recently published by University of Minnesota Press. At the intersection of queer theory and disability studies, Snediker locates something unexpected: chronic pain. Starting from this paradigm-shifting insight, Snediker elaborates a bracing examination of the phenomenological peculiarity of disability, articulating a complex idiom of figuration as the lived substance of pain's quotidian. This lexicon helps us differently inhabit both the theoretical and phenomenal dimensions of chronic pain and suffering by illuminating where these modes are least distinguishable. Suffused with fastidious close readings, and girded by a remarkably complex understanding of phenomenal experience, Contingent Figure resides in the overlap between literary theory and lyric experiment. Snediker grounds his exploration of disability and chronic pain in dazzling close readings of Herman Melville, Emily Dickinson, Henry James, and many others. Its juxtaposition of these readings with candid autobiographical accounts makes Contingent Figure an exemplary instance of literary theory as a practice of lyric attention. Thoroughly rigorous and anything but predictable, this stirring inquiry leaves the reader with a rich critical vocabulary indebted to the likes of Maurice Blanchot, Gilles Deleuze, D. O. Winnicott, and Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick. A master class in close reading's inseparability from the urgency of lived experience, this book is essential for students and scholars of disability studies, queer theory, formalism, aesthetics, and the radical challenge of Emersonian poetics across the long American nineteenth century. Britt Edelen is a Ph.D. student in English at Duke University. He focuses on modernism and the relationship(s) between language, philosophy, and literature.

Francesco Fogliotti"La teoria degli incorporei nello stoicismo antico"Emile BréhierCronopio Edizionihttp://www.cronopio.it/edizioni/In questo libro, che tanta parte ha avuto nella cultura francese del Novecento, émile Bréhier introduce lo Stoicismo nel grande dialogo che la filosofia contemporanea ha intrattenuto con l'antichità, esplorando il luogo in cui sembra venir meno il principale assunto della dottrina stoica: «tutto ciò che esiste è corpo». Questa fisica, che estende la nozione di corpo a tutto ciò che è in grado di agire e patire, è costretta a fare i conti con quattro residui inattivi e impassibili: l'esprimibile, il luogo, il vuoto e il tempo. Si tratta di esistenze al limite del reale. Non per questo secondarie, se è vero che la dialettica – «scienza del vero e del falso e di ciò che non è né vero né falso» – si compone esclusivamente di esprimibili, ossia di incorporei. La presenza degli incorporei, inoltre, conduce gli Stoici a situare al sommo delle categorie non più l'«essere» ma il «qualcosa»: unità più alta che comprende corpi e incorporei. Emile Bréhier (1876-1952) è stato filosofo e storico della filosofia. Autore di una magistrale Histoire de la philosophie(1926-1932) e di una traduzione delle Enneadi divenuta imprescindibile (1924-38), è noto in Italia soprattutto per La filosofia del medioevo (Einaudi, 1952).Francesco Fogliotti è regista e traduttore. Nel 2012 inizia una collaborazione con lo scrittore e teatrante Guido Ceronetti che lo condurrà alla realizzazione del cortometraggio “8 minuti e mezzo. Cosa resta di Federico Fellini?” (2013) e, nel 2014, del film documentario “Guido Ceronetti. Il Filosofo Ignoto”. Ha tradotto e curato l'edizione italiana de “La teoria degli incorporei nello stoicismo antico” di Émile Bréhier (Cronopio 2020), “Sentire il grisou” di Georges Didi-Huberman (Orthotes 2021) e tradotto testi di Vladimir Jankélévitch, Maurice Blanchot, David Lapoujade.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

La pratique du zen est fondamentalement englobante: retrouver l'unité des choses là où on les a séparées. C'est autour de ce thème que Konrad Kosan Maquestieau a rédigé cet enseignement oral (teisho) dans le dojo de Rixensart (Belgique) le 21 novembre 2020. Il n'y a pas de séparation entre le Dharma de Bouddha et la façon dont nous vivons notre quotidien durant cette pandémie qui restreint la liberté de nos mouvements. Il n'y a pas d'un côté la méditation, la quiétude et l'éveil et de l'autre la vie quotidienne, les tracas, le stress et le mal-être. La pratique est une invitation à englober le tout et à retrouver la douceur fondamentale de l'ordre cosmique qui parfois se nomme tout simplement "désastre" comme l'a décrit Maurice Blanchot.

Early in life we learn rules for moral conduct. We are taught which actions are right and which ones are wrong. Eventually we’re able to grasp principles and closed systems that allege to hold in place the reasons for why any particular action has moral value. In philosophical terms, this might look like John Stuart Mill’s utilitarian happiness principle: an action is right insofar as it maximizes utility or pleasure for the greatest number of people. It might resemble Immanuel Kant’s categorical imperative: to act only according to a maxim whereby you can will at the same time that it should become a universal law.  There is an assurance and comfort in having this sort of written in stone approach to morality. A moral reality that is unchanged, universal, enclosed in the structure of the universe. We just have to discover it, reason our way to it, and once we pen it to paper, we have moral laws we can always fall back on. This reliability and simplicity has its appeal, but what if closed moral systems are incomplete, wrongheaded? What if ethical living arises from a more ambiguous and ineffable place? What if we were instead to understand that the moral life is embedded in face-to-face interactions, that ethics is derived from a place of radical subjectivity and infinite responsibility to “the Other”? Emmanuel Levinas is a twentieth-century French philosopher who rejected rules-based notions of morality. Informed by phenomenologists like Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger, Levinas champions a subjective approach to the ethical life that demands a constant vigilance and moral responsiveness from us. The “face” is interruptive and constantly calling after us for attention. Levinas suggests an immense obligation to others that seems inexhaustible, a moral demand we’ll never be able to satisfy. Jeffrey Howard speaks with Megan Craig, a multi-media artist and associate professor of philosophy at Stony Brook University. In her book, Levinas and James: Toward a Pragmatic Phenomenology (2010), she offers us an overview of Levinas’ ethics by positioning him alongside the pragmatist philosopher William James. She does this not only to introduce Americans to an otherwise opaque and challenging continental philosopher but as a way of revealing the more practical or pragmatic elements of his ethics.   She wants us to consider what might be a more creative and vitalizing approach to ethical living, a perspective that prioritizes lived experience over moral abstractions and detached laws.

The Fascination with Death in Contemporary French Thought: A Longing for the Abyss (Palgrave MacMillan, 2020) analyses a cultural phenomenon that goes to the very roots of Western civilization: the centrality of death in our sense of human existence. It does so through a close reading of seminal works by the most creative authors of modern French thought, such as Maurice Blanchot, Jacques Lacan, and Jacques Derrida. These works encode an entire ethics of postmodernism. Betty Rojtman offers the reader a prism through which to see anew the key issues of the twentieth century: tragedy, finitude, nothingness—but also contestation, liberty, and sovereignty. Little by little we understand that this fascination with death may be just the other side of humankind's great protest, its thirst for the infinite and its desire to be. Finally, Rojtman tries to offer another view on these fundamental questions by shifting to a parallel cultural reference: Kabbalah.

It does so through a close reading of seminal works by the most creative authors of modern French thought, such as Maurice Blanchot, Jacques Lacan, and Jacques Derrida. These works encode an entire ethics of postmodernism. Betty Rojtman offers the reader a prism through which to see anew the key issues of the twentieth century: tragedy, finitude, nothingness—but also contestation, liberty, and sovereignty. Little by little we understand that this fascination with death may be just the other side of humankind’s great protest, its thirst for the infinite and its desire to be. Finally, Rojtman tries to offer another view on these fundamental questions by shifting to a parallel cultural reference: Kabbalah.

Season four of the BSP Podcast continues with a paper from William Large, University of Gloucestershire. The recording is taken from our 2019 Annual Conference, ‘The Theory and Practice of Phenomenology’.   ABSTRACT: This paper offers a broad historical analysis of atheism and a new conceptual definition. It describes three kinds of atheism: atheism of being, atheism of the idea, and atheism of the word. The first is an atheism of a metaphysical order and science; the second an atheism of morality; and the third an atheism of the community and the word. Each atheism comes in an historical sequence but are conceptually distinct. In terms of the traditional divisions of philosophy, the first atheism is ontology, the second is ethical, and the third is aesthetic and political. This historical sequence is not a necessary one, but contingent, and because each atheism is conceptually distinct, they can emerge at any time. Cutting across this horizontal historical series of atheism, is a vertical distinction between essence and existence. Theism responds to atheism through the passion of religion which sets the next form in motion. When, philosophy says, ‘God is being’, religion responds, ‘God is a hidden’. If philosophy replies, ‘God is an idea’, then religion responds again, ‘faith is the passion of a life’. Only in the last form is the dialogue between philosophy and religion reversed. Religion says, ‘faith is the word’, but philosophy responds, ‘the word is spoken by no-one’. The last atheism has a political consequence. What binds a community without a word?   BIO: William Large is Reader in Philosophy at the University of Gloucestershire, Cheltenham. He is the author of Maurice Blanchot [co-authored] (Routledge, 2001), Ethics and the Ambiguity of Writing: Emmanuel Levinas and Maurice Blanchot (Clinamen, 2005), Heidegger’s Being and Time (Edinburgh University Press, 2007), Levinas ’Totality and Infinity: A Reader’s Guide (Bloomsbury Academic, 2015), and numerous articles in continental philosophy. He was president of the British Society of Phenomenology from 2010-14.   The ‘British Society for Phenomenology Annual Conference 2019 – the Theory and Practice of Phenomenology’ was held at the International Anthony Burgess Foundation, Manchester, UK, 5 – 7 September, 2019: https://www.britishphenomenology.org.uk/conference/   You can check out our forthcoming events here: https://www.britishphenomenology.org.uk/events/   The British Society for Phenomenology is a not-for-profit organisation set up with the intention of promoting research and awareness in the field of Phenomenology and other cognate arms of philosophical thought.

I had tremendous fun talking to philosopher and novelist Lars Iyer. We discussed Nietzsche in light of Lars' new novel Nietzsche and the Burbs. We discussed many of Nietzsche's famous concepts such as übermensh, amor fati and suffering, affirmation, nihilism and eternal recurrence. As well, we touched on Maurice Blanchot, Simone Weil, The Invisible Committee and disco! Lars is a  a Reader in Creative Writing and Subject Head of Creative Writing at Newcastle University. He is the author of several academic articles and two monographs on Blanchot -  Blanchot’s Vigilance: Literature, Phenomenology and the Ethical  and Blanchot’s Communism: Art, Philosophy and the Political.(Palgrave Macmillan 2004, 2005). He is the author of The Spurious Trilogy (Spurious, Dogma and Exodus) with Melville House Publishing and now Nietzsche and the Burbs (2020). Nietzsche and the Burbs follows the reflections and comic musings of four young adults and their friend Nietzsche who have search for meaning in a meaningless world. You can find out more about Lars here, you can follow him on Twitter @utterlyspurious and you can buy a copy of Nietzsche and the Burbs here.

Den 2013 bortgångne poeten Ola Julén gjorde starkt avtryck med debuten "Orissa". Hans vän Kristian Fredén reflekterar över hur de allmänt hållna raderna skapar ett starkt personligt band till läsaren. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. I essän Från ångest till språk diskuterade den franske filosofen och författaren Maurice Blanchot problemet med att skildra sin ensamhet genom språket, detta medel för gemenskap. Som han skriver är ordet ensam lika allmänt som ordet bröd. Så hur kan man då trots allt gå bortom det allmänna och skildra sin egna, unika ensamhet och smärta i text? Denna problematik är central i poeten Ola Juléns sparsmakade produktion. 1999 publicerades hans bok "Orissa" på det lilla nystartade förlaget Ink i Stockholm. Den består av ytterst korta dikter, om de nu ens ska kallas dikter. Snarare utgör "Orissa" en enda lång dikt. Eller lång och lång. Vad vi har att göra med är en mening på varje högersida, uppdelad på en eller två rader. Vänstersidorna är blanka. Man sugs in direkt. Jag vet inte hur jag  ska kunna förklara det här för dig. Och så på nästa högersida: Det är något fel på mina ögon. Det sista kan låta som ett bildligt uttryck, men Julén hade sedan födseln rent medicinska problem med ögonen. Det var detta som, åtminstone till en början, låg bakom det minimalistiska formspråk som kom att bli hans signum. Han klarade bara att läsa eller skriva korta stunder åt gången, sedan fick han alltför ont. Snart nog fann han också vilken litterär kraft som fanns att hämta i begränsningen. Jag träffade Ola för första gången i början av 1990-talet, hemma hos vår gemensamma polare Stefan. Jag var tjugo, han ett par år äldre. Han gav mig en vältummad pocketutgåva av Bruno K Öijers samlade dikter på långlån. Faktum är att jag fortfarande har den kvar. Från att tidigare ha varit närmast besatt av dessa dikter intresserade de honom inte längre, förklarade han. Orsaken var att han fann dem manierade, att poeten ifråga hela tiden bar en mask över sitt lidande. Detta illustreras av den replik jag fick några veckor senare då jag just undsluppit mig något gymnasialt om verklighetens relativitet. Det finns en konkret jävla verklighet därute, Kristian. Det ska du ha klart för dig. Du har läst för mycket Öijer. Det är talande att så många av dem som skriver om Ola Julén också redogör för sin relation till honom. Denna essä är som märks inget undantag. Även de som inte kände honom ger uttryck för att de hade velat känna honom. De alldeles osminkade och rättframma uttrycken för en djupt personlig förtvivlan äter sig rakt in i läsaren, skapar en närhet och en undran vem är denna moderna Stagnelius-gestalt? Det går inte att värja sig. Och detta samtidigt som meningarna allt som oftast är så allmänna, så nästan helt renons på privata uppgifter att de tagna var för sig skulle ha kunnat yttras av vem som helst. På bussen kanske, eller klottrat på en offentlig toalett. Rader som: Hur länge ska det här fortsätta? Eller: Jag förstår inte att det kan göra så ont. Det är allmänna uttryck men tätt slutna kring jagets individuella belägenhet, en sorts kombination av öppenhet och oåtkomlighet. Jag tänker på det där speciella, falsettartade skrattet han hade under vilket han för ett par sekunder brukade stänga ute världen genom att blunda. Ola hade vid denna tid fastnat för Lars Norén och uppgav länge att det var hans enda läsning. Gunnar Ekelöf hade han ännu inte riktigt tagit till sig, men det skulle komma det med. Just Norén och Ekelöf utgör nog de tydligaste ekona i hans egen poesi. Viktig var även poeten Stig Larsson som han kände och som han påstod närmast hade tjatat på honom att skriva en egen diktsamling. Och det gjorde han ju så småningom. I förordet till den nyutgåva av Orissa som år 2019 gavs ut i samband med den postuma publiceringen av det efterlämnade manuset Afrikas verkliga historia skriver en av förlaget Inks grundare, Björn Wiman, om debutfesten tjugo år tidigare. Jag var också där. Ola läste Orissa från pärm till pärm. Det tog honom ungefär tio minuter att ta sig igenom boken. Rytmiskt vände han blad, läste, vände blad. Stämningen var, som man säger, förtätad. Jag som skulle  vara full av kärlek. Jag förstår inte.   Varför är det ingen som vill ha mig? Somliga bland gästerna var begeistrade, andra besvärade, men alla berörda. Jag minns hur en vid den tiden uppmärksammad författare från samma generation, mitt under uppläsningen, lutade sig fram och viskade i mitt öra: Men vad fan är det här, låter ju som en fjortonårings dagbok!? Jag ryckte bara på axlarna och fortsatte att fokusera på Olas läsning, ville uppfatta varje stavelse han yttrade. Efteråt skrev han ett Neil Young-citat som personlig hälsning i mitt exemplar av boken. Till Kristian från Ola: the same things that makes you live can kill you in the end. Det kändes helt naturligt och inte det minsta opersonligt med en dedikation i form av ett citat. Ola skämdes inte för att låna från andra och väva in deras ord och uttryck i den egna författarrösten. Som jag ser det var det inte originaliteten i sig som var viktig för honom, ärlighet och lojalitet gentemot det man försöker uttrycka var däremot helt avgörande. Alltså att inte fastna i poser, i tom stilistik, utan att mot alla odds försöka nå någonting bortom detta kanske en form av katharsis, en rening. Den alltså postumt utgivna diktsamlingen Afrikas verkliga historia inleds med de Ekelöf-doftande raderna: Jag skriver för att komma bort från det jag skrivit. Jag lever för att komma bort från det jag levt. Den som, lockad av boktiteln, söker en faktabok om afrikansk historia finner istället ett brustet hjärta i Rio de Janeiro, dit han reste efter publiceringen av Orissa. Jämfört med det närmast krampartat statistiska tillståndet i debutboken får vi här mer av en historia, om än i sönderhackad form. Dikterna har nämligen sorterats enligt en strikt alfabetisk princip som inte tar någon narrativ hänsyn. Men oavsett om vi utan förvarning är hemma i Sverige igen eller lika plötsligt tillbaka i Rio befinner vi oss mestadels i ett ohjälpligt efteråt där allt redan är försent. Kärleken är över, i den mån den ens var besvarad. Och samtidigt är den aldrig över. Gång efter annan upprepas Jag kommer aldrig att bli glad igen, Jacqueline och på sidan 125 står att läsa: Men den saknade försvinner inte. Jag kan inte radera ut mig själv. Ordet kärlek visar sig vara lika allmänt som ordet ensam. Det spelar ingen roll hur många gånger de utslitna orden jag älskar dig används eller om han skriver dem med utropstecken eller inte. Jaget tycks fångad i språkets otillräcklighet till den grad att han skakar i det som i ett galler. Och samtidigt, i detta skakande, frambringas något av det mest hudlöst personliga jag läst. Eller som Ola själv möjligtvis skulle ha sagt: Det finns en konkret jävla kärlek därute. Det ska du ha klart för dig. Kristian Fredén, författare och kritiker Litteratur Ola Julén: Orissa.

New Books at the Heyman Center: a podcast featuring audio from events at Columbia University, and interviews with the speakers and authors. Living in the shadow of death may enhance the gift of life. In 2006, Taylor (Religion/Columbia Univ.; Speed Limits: Where Time Went and Why We Have So Little Left, 2014, etc.) developed an infection after a biopsy, resulting in septic shock that took a month to stabilize; five months later, he underwent surgery for cancer. That life-threatening experience, he reflects, was like “dying without dying,” and the last 10 years have seemed like “life after death for me,” a reprieve that made him feel unexpectedly liberated. Trying to make sense of the experience, he turned to writers whose works he has read, taught, and cherished during his long career. The result is an erudite intellectual autobiography focused on 11 writers’ insights about the end of life: several (Virginia Woolf, Ernest Hemingway, David Foster Wallace, and Freud) committed suicide; two (Nietzsche, Poe) died in delirium; and two (Maurice Blanchot, Jacques Derrida) are likely to be unfamiliar to readers without a background in philosophy. Kierkegaard, Melville, and Thoreau round out the cast. None could be characterized as bright spirits but rather echo the abiding depression that Taylor believes he inherited from his mother. “In one way or another,” he admits, “everything I have written over the years has been an effort to overcome the melancholy of unhappy consciousness.” From his father, however, a science teacher, poet, and artist, he inherited an uplifting love of nature and artistic talent. Living in New England, Taylor senses the ghosts of Melville and Thoreau close at hand. As he watches the sun rise each morning over the Berkshires, he is struck by the moment before light appears and “reality remains virtual and all things seem possible.” As an artist, “exploring ways of writing without words,” he has created large-scale land art from steel, stone, and bone that depict letters from the signatures of Hegel, Kierkegaard, and Nietzsche. They stand as impressive homages to a trinity of beloved philosophers. Taylor’s personal recollections emerge as the most engaging passages, punctuating analyses of often challenging works. A learned meditation on mortality.

Awkward Celebrity Encounters: Maurice Blanchot by Caveh Zahedi

Sandrine Sanos‘s new book, The Aesthetics of Hate: Far-Right Intellectuals, Antisemitism and Gender in 1930s France (Stanford University Press, 2013), examines the central roles that gender, sexuality, and race played in the far-right ideologies of the 1930s. Re-reading the work and ideas of a group of male intellectuals known as the Jeune Droite or “Young New Right,” Sanos argues that aesthetics and politics were deeply intertwined in these authors’ representations of a crisis of French civilization and in the antisemitic, racist, and misogynist responses they articulated. Figures like Maurice Blanchot and Louis-Ferdinand Celine were some of the most famous members of an intellectual movement that elaborated an “aesthetics of hate” in which Jews, women, and homosexuals figured as emblems of decadence and decline. The book also traces in fascinating ways some of the crucial links between French anti-Semitism and imperialism, examining connections between metropolitan and colonial racisms. While Sanos is careful to point out that hers is not a history of fascism per se, The Aesthetics of Hate makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the far-right in France and beyond. The book illuminates the intersections between gender, sexuality, and race in modern France, as well as the fundamental interdependence of French culture and politics through the twentieth century. An archaeology of some of the more repugnant political ideas of the 1930s, the book also has broader implications for our understanding of contemporary French expressions of cultural anxiety, racism, and hateful politics.

Re-reading the work and ideas of a group of male intellectuals known as the Jeune Droite or “Young New Right,” Sanos argues that aesthetics and politics were deeply intertwined in these authors’ representations of a crisis of French civilization and in the antisemitic, racist, and misogynist responses they articulated. Figures like Maurice Blanchot and Louis-Ferdinand Celine were some of the most famous members of an intellectual movement that elaborated an “aesthetics of hate” in which Jews, women, and homosexuals figured as emblems of decadence and decline. The book also traces in fascinating ways some of the crucial links between French anti-Semitism and imperialism, examining connections between metropolitan and colonial racisms. While Sanos is careful to point out that hers is not a history of fascism per se, The Aesthetics of Hate makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the far-right in France and beyond. The book illuminates the intersections between gender, sexuality, and race in modern France, as well as the fundamental interdependence of French culture and politics through the twentieth century. An archaeology of some of the more repugnant political ideas of the 1930s, the book also has broader implications for our understanding of contemporary French expressions of cultural anxiety, racism, and hateful politics.

Enfin une émission culturelle de qualité à CHOQ! Cette semaine, Niquette et Sophie nous partagent leurs derniers coups de coeur littéraires, on reçoit en grande entrevue l'artiste Andrée-Anne Gauthier, Dom nous débat de ses récentes trouvailles musicales, pis Julien met des bruits d'animaux qui fourrent. Selon le philosophe Maurice Blanchot, ''tout art tire son origine d'un défaut exceptionnel''. Avec Des si et des rais, cela n'a jamais été aussi vrai.

Colin Marshall talks to novelist and philosopher Lars Iyer, author the blog Spurious and the new novel Spurious. In both the blog and the book, the philosophers Lars and W. discuss their favorite artists and writers — Franz Kafka, Andrei Tarkovsky, Maurice Blanchot, Béla Tarr — and what they see as their own pathetic inability to live up to their collective example. As Lars deals with a dampness problem ever encroaching on his apartment, W. berates him with a seemingly endless series of insults that takes friendly verbal abuse to a high art form.
