AN ESSAY ON BIRTH AND RESURRECTION EMMANUEL FALQUE Translated by George Hughes This book reads the dogma of the resurrection of the body in the context of contemporary philosophy, notably Husserl, Heidegger, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty, and Deleuze. It shows how a phenomenology of the body born “from below� can be seen as a paradigm for a theology of spiritual rebirth, and for rebirth of the body from “on high.�

“Many scholars from a variety of disciplines will find this an interesting and enlightening text. It not only broadens our understanding of Ricoeur’s work but also builds on it, following his exemplary model on how to do philosophy.�— Christina Gschwandtner, Scranton University 192 PAGES 978-0-8232-3293-2 PAPER, $24.00

Contributors: Jeff Bell, Roland Faber, Sigridur Gudmarsdottir, Michael Halewood, Luke Higgins, Catherine Keller, Isabella Palin, Keith Robinson, Steven Shaviro, Andrea Stephenson, Alan R. Van Wyk

“This collection of essays brings together three very different thinkers around their shared immanentism and antisubstantialism, attending to the differing ways that events, bodies, and gods become in the absence of a transcendent order of being.�—Mary Jane Rubenstein, Wesleyan University 256 PAGES 978-0-8232-3209-3 PAPER, $28.00

PHILOSOPHY The Interval: RELATION AND BECOMING IN IRIGARAY, ARISTOTLE, AND BERGSON REBECCA HILL “The interval is a force of dispersal or difference that is constitutive of identity: it is the necessity of relations between terms. Rebecca Hill has provided a powerful, original analysis of the interval in thinking sexual difference and its implications for our thinking about space, time, and identity.�—Elizabeth Grosz, Rutgers, The State Univeresity of New Jersey 208 PAGES 978-0-8232-3724-1 CLOTH, $55.00

Thinking about Thinking WHAT KIND OF CONVERSATION IS PHILOSOPHY? ADRIAAN THEODOOR PEPERZAK “Thinking about Thinking comprises a set of meditations about the dialogical nature of philosophy and the philosophical life. The fruit of twenty-five years of teaching by a gifted and spirit-filled philosopher, these ten meditations gather around the themes of trust and faith in its several forms, including religious faith and Hegel’s ‘faith in reason.’ �—Thomas R. Flynn, Emory University 216 PAGES 978-0-8232-4018-0 PAPER, $26.00

Through Narcissus’ Glass Darkly THE MODERN RELIGION OF CONSCIENCE DAVID S. PACINI “Pacini’s book . . . illuminates an idea whose inner workings call for a rare ability to think theologically in the context of a modern philosophical narrative. The ‘religion’ in a religion of conscience defies the usual distinctions between religion and science, faith and reason, autonomy and dependence. Pacini deftly illuminates the depths of that brave new religion.�—James Wetzel, Villanova University

Southern Thought and Other Essays on the Mediterranean FRANCO CASSANO Edited and Translated by Norma Bouchard and Valerio Ferme “Cassano’s book furnishes a theoretical and sociohistorical map whereby marginality, silence, difference, and other forms of cultural suppression can finally articulate a discourse aimed not solely at deconstructing Northern European modernity, but at shaping a new understanding of the complex relation between peoples, cultures, and the environment. These perspectives have long been locked up in the Souths of the world, and in the Mediterranean in particular.�—Peter Carravetta, Stony Brook University 224 PAGES 978-0-8232-3365-6 PAPER, $26.00

PEIRCE, AFFECTIVITY, AND SOCIAL CRITICISM LARA TROUT “A lucid, compelling, and exceptionally accessible account of the relevance of Peirce and pragmatism to contemporary discussions of social justice. Trout demonstrates how Peirce’s philosophy rises above his personal prejudices to provide a unique set of tools for analyzing and criticizing the nonconscious biases of those who believe that they are free from prejudice. The Politics of Survival is unmatched in the manner in which it makes Peirce and pragmatism relevant to recent literature on racism and sexism.�—Mitchell Aboulafia, The Juilliard School

Contributors: RenĂŠ Arcilla, Gordon C. F. Bearn, Stanley Cavell, Vincent Colapietro, Russell Goodman, Steve Odin, Hilary W. Putnam, Naoko Saito, Paul Standish

“Stanley Cavell grasps the joys and despairs of philosophy as the art of living, just as he knows the intricate mental beauties and confusions of philosophy as theory. At the very heart of his philosophizing resides the question of education: of who and what we are as beings juxtaposed with who and what we might wish to become. This splendid collection of essays, adroitly edited by Naoko Saito and Paul Standish, is the very first scholarly text to take seriously Cavell’s passion for questions of teaching and learning. It is a welcome addition to the philosophy and the practice of education.�—David T. Hansen, Professor and Director, Program in Philosophy and Education, Teachers College, Columbia University 268 PAGES 978-0-8232-3474-5 PAPER, $28.00

FOR COUR SES

Conversations on Peirce

“This volume is important in that Thoreau was a complex individual whose studies were cross-disciplinary. He was not a writer who merely touched on science; he was a natural philosopher. He was not a writer who merely studied social reform; he was a political activist. And he was not a writer who added a slight philosophical touch to his writings; he was a philosopher. As a book in philosophy, this collection of essays is unique.�—Daniel Dombrowsk, Seattle University 288 PAGES 978-0-8232-3930-6 CLOTH, $55.00
