Abstract:

This chapter describes depression and its various symptoms from the point of view of a psychiatrist. The chapter argues that depression is not the same as being sad and certainly not the same as anxiety or even panic. It is something like a deep existential terror that seeps into the sufferer’s bones and poisons their blood. It may be accompanied by a tormenting restlessness, in which every single decision is excruciatingly hard. Depression is an umbrella term for many conditions, such as having a difficult personality that makes you perpetually unhappy, or suffering from a deadly episodic illness. The chapter talks about experiences with bouts of depression and medication and the use of alternative remedies and therapies.

Cooper, Stephen, and Clorinda Donato, eds. John Fante's Ask the Dust. Fordham University Press, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.5422/fordham/9780823287864.001.0001.

Abstract:

Eight decades after Ask the Dust first appeared, John Fante’s Ask the Dust: A Joining of Voices and Views shows how and why the once-forgotten novel continues to earn its place among the signal works of twentieth-century world literature in our own moment of the twenty-first. Gathered here are twenty responses to the novel from a wide variety of contributors, both American and Italian, including scholars, journalists, filmmakers, creative writers, translators, archive workers, a musicologist, a choreographer, and an American Indian who discovered the book while incarcerated in a California maximum-security prison. In recognizing the novel’s enduring attractions and evolving critical challenges, editors Cooper and Donato have orchestrated the volume’s contents to address both academic audiences and the countless word-of-mouth fans who have made Ask the Dust a perennial international classic. With its array of essays, interviews, talks, memoirs, and correspondence—including an important letter by Fante, newly discovered and published here for the first time—the volume raises Fante studies to a commanding level of significance through its diversity of perspectives on the cornerstone of the author’s oeuvre. Italian American to its core, the picaresque brio of Ask the Dust resonates all the more profoundly today as readers debate, reinterpret, and embrace the abiding truths of Arturo Bandini’s struggle with immigrant dreams, ethnic tensions, romantic love, existential demons, and the better angels of his inherited Catholic faith against the backdrop of that “sad flower in the sand,” the Depression-era city of Los Angeles.

Abstract:

Semantics is the study of meaning in the linguistic sense, broadly understood, rather than in the sense of existential significance. The study of religion seeks to understand exactly what religious adherents believe, do, desire, contemplate, exhort, command, require, represent, or communicate to themselves and others. Scholars of religion also typically seek to explain why religious persons and groups do what they do, believe what they believe, etc. Thus both main tasks of the discipline presuppose that its data are things that carry semantic significance—that they mean something rather than something else, and that there are better and worse ways of capturing those meanings. This chapter describes some of the main positions in philosophical semantics, explains that they should not be ignored by the serious scholar of religion, and points to a few examples of how paying attention to them have clear practical utility for the study of religion.

Dreyfus, Hubert L. Background Practices. Edited by Mark A. Wrathall. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198796220.001.0001.

Full text

Abstract:

Hubert Dreyfus is one of the foremost advocates of European philosophy in the anglophone world. His clear, jargon-free interpretations of the leading thinkers of the European tradition of philosophy have done a great deal to erase the analytic–Continental divide. But Dreyfus is not just an influential interpreter of Continental philosophers; he is a creative, iconoclastic thinker in his own right. Drawing on the work of Heidegger, Husserl, Merleau-Ponty, Foucault, and Kierkegaard, Dreyfus makes significant contributions to contemporary conversations about mind, authenticity, technology, nihilism, modernity and postmodernity, art, scientific realism, and religion. This volume collects thirteen of Dreyfus’s most influential essays, each of which interprets, develops, and extends the insights of his predecessors working in phenomenological and existential philosophy. The essays exemplify a distinctive feature of his approach to philosophy, namely the way his work inextricably intertwines the interpretation of texts with his own analysis and description of the phenomena at issue. In fact, these two tasks—textual exegesis and phenomenological description—are for Dreyfus necessarily dependent on each other. In approaching philosophy in this way, Dreyfus is an heir to Heidegger’s own historically oriented style of phenomenology.

Harrison, Graham. Developmentalism. Oxford University Press, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198785798.001.0001.

Abstract:

When we talk about development, we are talking about capitalist development. Taking a historical-comparativ e approach, Harrison understands development as a transformation which involves a deep and integrated political economy of change: a shift from a state of ‘capital-ascendance’ to ‘capital-dominance’. It is only through a transformation towards capital dominance that mass poverty reduction and the construction of a commonwealth are possible. However, capitalist development is extremely difficult and requires a highly exacting political endeavour. The politics of development is conceptualized as developmentalism: a strategy and ideology in which governments exercise heavy directive power, endure instability and crisis, and secure a rudimentary legitimacy for their efforts. The political exertions required to generate and sustain a developmentalist strategy are too great to be met by the simple desire to develop. Harrison argues that developmentalism requires a conflation of successful capitalist transformation with some form of existential insecurity of the state itself. Developmentalism flourishes when capitalist transformation connects to profound questions of sovereignty, statehood, nation-building, and elite survival. Authoritarian state action is intrinsic to developmentalism, which the book addresses by adapting a realist approach to politics in which political norms and values are generated within the agonies of suffering and benefit generated by an ascending capital. Taking case studies from the last 250 years, Developmentalism shows the deep contextualization of capitalist transformation as well as the massive improvements in material life that it has generated.
