Beschreibung

Chronicled Plagues explores the profound impact of plagues on human history, focusing on how religious interpretations and cultural narratives have shaped our understanding of these devastating events. Examining major historical outbreaks like the Black Death and the Spanish Flu, the book analyzes how societies have used religion to explain and cope with widespread disease, divine judgment, and mortality. Intriguingly, these religious interpretations, while often stemming from fear, have also fostered cultural resilience and communal support. 

 
The book uniquely emphasizes the intersection of history and religion to reveal humanity's response to plagues. It begins by establishing a historical context for understanding major plague outbreaks and early epidemiological theories. It then progresses to examining religious interpretations across traditions, focusing on theological responses and ritual practices. Finally, it analyzes the impact of plagues on myths, literature, and art, tracing their influence on themes of morality and social order. 

 
This approach provides a comprehensive view of how plagues have shaped cultural expression, offering valuable insights into how we construct meaning in the face of suffering.

    Attention implies that there is no centre - 22 June 1975 
    • Consciousness, because it is in constant movement, has never found an energy 
    which is not contradictory, which is not produced by desire and thought. 
    • Can thought ever see its own movement and the futility of its own movement? • Attention implies that there is no centre. 
    • Is there a perception, a seeing outside the space which is part of consciousness? • Therearetwohumanbeings,onegetsconditionedandtheotherdoesn’t.Why? 
    How has it happened the other doesn’t get conditioned? 
    • How does this perception which is beyond attention, beyond awareness, 
    beyond concentration come about? 
    • Thought is rather superficial, it’s merely a very small part of the operation of the 
    brain. 
    • Can consciousness be completely empty of its content? • Order and disorder

    An essay collection on the importance of critical thought, from one of the foremost Chinese intellectuals of the 1990s. 
     
      
     
    Wang Xiaobo's Pleasure of Thinking is an essay collection as riotous as it is contemplative. Between rollicking anecdotes about living between the East and West and serious musings on the intellectual situations at home and abroad, Xiaobo examines modern life with the levity missing from so much of today's politico-cultural discourse. 
     
     
      
    In "The Maverick Pig," he considers the existential differences between humans and livestock. In "Tales From Abroad: Food," he recounts the culture shock of discovering American diets while studying at Carnegie Mellon. Several pieces focus on literature, with notable essays devoted to Italo Calvino, Bertrand Russell, and Ernest Hemingway, whom Xiaobo admired greatly. Others are more personal in nature, ranging from a meditation on getting mugged, to the consideration of the question: why do I write? 
     
     
      
    Controversial, hilarious, and inimitable, Pleasure of Thinking is a delightful celebration of Wang Xiaobo's unique critical perspective.

    In recent years, "white feminism" and girlboss feminism have taken a justified beating. We know that leaning in won't make our jobs any more tolerable and that white women have proven to be, at best, unreliable allies. But in a time of rising fascism, ceaseless attacks on reproductive justice, and violent transphobia, we need to reckon with what Western feminism has wrought if we have any hope of building the feminist world we need. 
     
     
     
    Sophie Lewis offers an unflinching tour of enemy feminisms, from nineteenth century imperial feminists and police officers to twentieth century KKK feminists and pornophobes to today's anti-abortion and TERF feminists. Enemy feminisms exist. Feminism is not an inherent political good. Only when we acknowledge that can we finally reckon with the ways these feminisms have pushed us toward counterproductive and even violent ends. And only then can we finally engage in feminist strategizing that is truly antifascist. 
     
     
     
    At once a left transfeminist battle cry against cisness, a decolonial takedown of nationalist womanhoods, and a sex-radical retort to femmephobia in all its guises, Enemy Feminisms is above all a fierce, brilliant love letter to feminism.
