Abstract:
AbstractConceptual engineers have made hay over the differences of their metaphilosophy from those of conceptual analysts. In this article, I argue that the differences are not as great as conceptual engineers have, perhaps rhetorically, made them seem. That is, conceptual analysts asking ‘What is X?’ questions can do much the same work that conceptual engineers can do with ‘What is X for?’ questions, at least if conceptual analysts self-understand their activity as a revisionary enterprise. I show this with a study of Russell's metaphilosophy, which was just such a revisionary conception of c

The stakes of this finding are high, for scholars today still understand Dickinsonian intertextuality within the framework of a famous claim that the poet made in 1862, that she “never consciously touch[ed] a paint, mixed by another person” without “mark[ing]” (overtly identifying) her use of allog

Personal autonomy is often lauded as a key value in contemporary Western bioethics, and the claim that there is an important relationship between autonomy and rationality is often treated as an uncontroversial claim in this sphere.

In particular, it is unclear whether a rationalist view of autonomy can be compatible with legal judgments that enshrine a patient’s right to refuse medical treatment, regardless of whether ‘… the reasons for making the choice are rational, ir

According to the Bible, Eve was the first to heed Satan’s advice to eat of the forbidden fruit.

Hereby, Lucifer was reconceptualized as a feminist liberator of womankind, and Eve became a heroine.

"Ekphrastic Poetics in and after Sight and Song." In Michael Field's Revisionary Poetics, edited by Jill R. Ehnenn. Edinburgh University Press, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.3366/edinburgh/9781474448390.003.0003.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter argues that, through the queer feminist revisionary poetics in Sight and Song, Michael Field’s ekphrases perform metaleptic leaps that, in their shift from image to word, test the boundaries of objective/formalist vs. subjective/anti-formalist modes of interacting with art and complicate the presumption of paragone, or rivalry, between the sister arts of painting and poetry. They negotiate their outsider status as authoritative viewers of art, challenge the notion of the autonomous art object and the notion of the universal spectator, bring anti-patriarchal and anti-heteronormative interpretations to the venerable art-objects they contemplate, and demonstrate how ekphrasis can be much more synaesthetic—and in particular, haptic-- than solely visual. Further, much of Michael Field’s ekphrastic work in and after Sight and Song was in dialogue with other late-nineteenth-century theories of vision and the senses, theories that anticipate phenomenology in the tradition of Merleau-Ponty. The second portion of this chapter moves beyond Sight and Song to address Michael Field's continued employment of ekphrasis in their later writing and gestures toward the rise of modernist ekphrastic writing that, to varying degrees, resonated with Michael Field’s verse.

Abstract:
Chapter Five demonstrates how Bradley and Cooper sought to become "Catholic poets" in Poems of Adoration (1912) and Mystic Trees (1914) by appropriating the formal, including metric, conventions of Victorian devotional poetics while also maintaining many of the Aesthetic, queer characteristics of their earlier work. In terms of meter, these queer characteristics manifest themselves in shifting, ambiguous metrics that resonate with today's thinking about queer temporality. In order to support these claims, this chapter examines nineteenth-century writing on devotional form and Anglo-Catholic theology as well as the co-authors' correspondence with their Catholic friends and mentors. By drawing upon recent insights from disability studies, as well as previous claims that Michael Field’s ongoing re-visionary projects possess qualities we today call both queer and feminist, this chapter shows how Michael Field’s Catholic verses engage the ineffable and the unknown as they articulate spiritual and homoerotic love and desire specifically in context of being, seeing, and desiring an embodied (female) subject in pain.

Abstract:
The conclusion offers a brief overview of the aims of the book, noting that they are both revisionary and systematic. The book challenges our usual understanding of the history of nineteenth-century German philosophy, by tracing the development of an understudied empiricist tradition, and detailing its significance. Furthermore, it highlights the work of authors usually relegated to the sidelines of philosophy, and shows how their work was crucial in the emergence of an ecological way of thinking. The book, furthermore, seeks to revitalize the approach practiced by the romantic empiricists, by demonstrating, first, how their understanding of knowledge, and of the relationship between epistemology, aesthetics, and ethics, illuminates and expands the sense in which the environmental crisis is a crisis of reason or culture, and, second, how their practices of knowledge challenge us to think differently about what it means to know well.

Abstract:
Abstract The Introduction outlines relevant developments in the study of Buddhist, and more broadly non-Western, philosophy and exposes the Eurocentrism insidiously at work within them. This leads directly to critical discussion of the very paradigms used both to structure and to demarcate scholarship on ‘philosophy’, ‘religion’, and thus also ‘philosophy of religion’. Using Nāgārjuna as a theoretical counterbalance, the (largely unacknowledged) perpetuation of identifiably Christian/Western terms of reference as normative in the study of Buddhism is critiqued, and a proposal is set out to study the tradition as what is here termed a ‘religiosophy’. This, in turn, entails revisionary discussion of topics such as the relation of rationality to wisdom, the historicity of (religious and philosophical) claims to universality, and the place for terminological innovations when reading materials rooted in one linguistic and intellectual culture from the interpretive horizon of another.

Abstract:
Winner of Spain’s national poetry prize, Francisca Aguirre is the author of the long poem Itáca (1972), a reconceptualization of the island home of Penelope and Odysseus. Aguirre’s engagement with myth is both reactionary and revisionary as it responds to the idea of Ithaca as symbolic homeland and as the impetus for a liberating, life-changing journey. Inspired by the poetry of Greek writer C. P. Cavafy, Itáca is also in dialogue with the mythology of place, exile, recognition, and the restructuring of identity. However, as a woman encountering his work decades later in Francoist Spain, Aguirre found that Cavafy, like Homer, promised a journey that was not accessible to her. Thus, her poem becomes an investigation of how narratives of the self are limited by social expectations and how divergent subjectivities are silenced, and reborn.

Abstract:
Abstract This essay assesses the history and legacy of the New Divinity movement. The New Divinity movement built on the work and ministry of Jonathan Edwards following his death. This movement had at least two subtraditions: one stemming from the sharp-edged polemics of Hopkinsians, another emanating from the pastoral and ecumenical strains of Edwards’s student Joseph Bellamy and grandson Timothy Dwight. American scholar Joseph Haroutunian set the paradigm for New Divinity scholarship throughout most of the twentieth century. Haroutunian was critical of Edwards’s successors, but his work was eclipsed in the late twentieth century by revisionary scholarship. Joseph Conforti’s work symbolized most clearly the changing tides of scholarship, and scholars began to appreciate the Edwardseans’ contributions more fully. The New Divinity movement coalesced around two theological principles: the distinction between the natural and moral ability to obey God and an insistence on immediate repentance. The movement utilized its social ties (including its “schools of the prophets” and the group consciousness they cultivated) and institutional initiatives to gain clout throughout America. Its growth and popularity—including its members, publications, and benevolent endeavors—are a testament to its influence and the role it played in shaping the American religious landscape.

Abstract:
Detective stories, science fiction, and the advocacy of social justice through revisionary mythopoeisis are different modes of exploring the anxieties and tensions embedded in future thinking, and of deciphering the strangeness of the present by plumbing the rationalities and the technologies of the present for their potentials of (rational) absurdity and (technological) self-destruction. In this chapter, these issues are explored in the work of three different novelists. Daren Goh's The HDB Murders updates Michael Young's satirical The Rise of the Meritocracy, and deals with the competitive and destructive metrics of auditing. Kevin Martens Wong's Altered Straits presents an alternative Singapore, both in terms of history and imagined futures. Nuraliah Norasid's The Gatekeeper provides a mythopoetic assay into the racial, class, and other inequalities generated by the meritocratic state, fusing together ancient Greek and Chinese myth, along with a feminist mode of writing the body.

Abstract:
Peter C. Kunze investigates films for children that engage elements of horror, concentrating on the intersection between postmodernism and children’s cinema. Closely examining two films in which the monstrous is a key aspect of the films’ aesthetic, Shrek and Monsters, Inc., Kunze examines the postmodern aspects of these films, considering their revisionary stance, their use of double address, and their allusive nature. As the essay progresses, he hones in on the narrative construction of the monster in these films and the processes by which they revise monstrosity. Kunze demonstrates, overall, that these films illustrate for the child viewer “the benefits of confronting the Other not to destroy it, but to appreciate it and work towards mutual understanding” and offers a useful methodology for thinking about the monster in children’s books and films targeted toward the young that have been produced during the new millennium.
