Desde el análisis sociológico hasta la interpretación psicoanalítica, pasando por los estudios literarios y la explicación biológica, el suicidio es un fenómeno que ha provocado un enorme interés y que genera múltiples interrogantes. En Miradas sobre el suicidio, Hugo Bauzá aborda algunos de ellos desde el análisis de diversos casos emblemáticos y su incidencia en la literatura y el arte. A partir de un preciso itinerario por obras clásicas y contemporáneas, Bauzá reconstruye el imaginario suicida desde su origen hasta la actualidad: la muerte voluntaria de las Sirenas, el debate entre estoicos y epicúreos, el suicidio lógico en Fiódor Dostoievski, la oposición en Albert Camus y la valoración del acto en Antonio Di Benedetto, entre otros. Asimismo, el autor se sirve de testimonios escritos para aproximarse a la vida de aquellos que decidieron interrumpirla, como es el caso de las poetas Sylvia Plath y Alejandra Pizarnik, el filósofo Walter Benjamin, la escritora Virginia Woolf, el artista Alberto Greco o el político Leandro N. Alem. " ¿Por qué razón hay seres humanos que, en lugar de aguardar la muerte de manera natural, deciden anticiparla provocándosela ellos mismos? ¿Valentía al querer desafiar los designios de la creación? ¿Cobardía al no poder enfrentar sus problemas?". Estos son algunos de los enigmas que atraviesan la obra y sobre los que Hugo Bauzá reflexiona con notable erudición y sensibilidad.

Juan García Ponce: la mirada oblicua es una lectura de la vida y la obra de García Ponce a partir de algunos presupuestos esenciales extraídos de la propia poética del autor. No se trata solo de destacar algunos temas fundamentales y recurrentes de su obra –una sexualidad abierta que no se sustenta en la moral instituida, el incesto entre hermanos, la homosexualidad, el deseo como la fuerza que rige los comportamientos humanos, el rechazo a las convenciones y obligaciones sociales que limitan la libertad individual–, sino de hacer emerger a través de ellos esas corrientes subterráneas que recorren toda la obra de García Ponce y que se constituyen como una franca alternativa a esas instituciones y preceptos sociales que buscan normalizar la conducta del hombre, eliminando de ella toda su fuerza subversiva y sometiéndola a un comportamiento conveniente y socialmente aceptado. Lo que se busca en este libro es darle la palabra, al fin, a esta decidida actitud de rechazo radical de cualquier forma de sometimiento social que recorre de manera subterránea toda la obra de Juan García Ponce.

Fatal Freedom is an eloquent defense of every individual’s right to choose F a voluntary death. By maintaining statutes that determine that voluntary death is not legal, Thomas Szasz believes that our society is forfeiting one of its basic freedoms and causing the psychiatric medical establishment to treat individuals in a manner that is disturbingly inhumane. Society’s penchant for defining behavior it terms objectionable as a disease has created a psychiatric establishment that exerts far too much influence over how and when we choose to die. In a compelling argument that clearly and intelligently addresses one of the most significant ethical issues of our time, Szasz compares suicide to other practices that historically began as sins, became crimes, and now arc seen as mental illnesses.

Thus Spake Zarathustra written by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche and has been published by Algora Publishing this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2003 with Philosophy categories.
Zarathustra was Nietzsche's masterpiece, the first comprehensive statement of his mature philosophy, and the introduction of his influential and well-known (and misunderstood) ideas including the "overman" or "superman" and the "will to power." It is also the source of Nietzsche's famous (and much misconstrued) statement that "God is dead." Though this is essentially a work of philosophy, it is also a masterpiece of literature, a cross between prose and poetry. A considerable part and parcel of Nietzsche's genius is his ability to make his language dance, and this is what becomes extraordinarily difficult to translate. It has been almost 40 years since Hollingdale's version for Penguin and almost 50 since Kaufmann's. However, anyone who appreciates the German original knows that these translations are merely adequate. While earlier translators have smoothed out the rough edges, cut corners and sometimes omitted troublesome passages outright, this one honors and respects the original as no other. Kaufmann and others are guilty of the deplorable tendency to "improve" on the original. Much is lost by this means, to say nothing of the interior rhythms, the grace notes, the not always graceful but omnipresent and striking puns and wordplays. And in not a few instances the current translation improves on Kaufmann's use of English or otherwise clarifies what Nietzsche is really saying

Undoing Gender written by Judith Butler and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2004-10-22 with History categories.
Undoing Gender constitutes Judith Butler's recent reflections on gender and sexuality, focusing on new kinship, psychoanalysis and the incest taboo, transgender, intersex, diagnostic categories, social violence, and the tasks of social transformation. In terms that draw from feminist and queer theory, Butler considers the norms that govern--and fail to govern--gender and sexuality as they relate to the constraints on recognizable personhood. The book constitutes a reconsideration of her earlier view on gender performativity from Gender Trouble. In this work, the critique of gender norms is clearly situated within the framework of human persistence and survival. And to "do" one's gender in certain ways sometimes implies "undoing" dominant notions of personhood. She writes about the "New Gender Politics" that has emerged in recent years, a combination of movements concerned with transgender, transsexuality, intersex, and their complex relations to feminist and queer theory.

Basic concepts and case studies from an emerging field that investigates human capacities and pathologies at the intersection of brain and culture. The brain and the nervous system are our most cultural organs. Our nervous system is especially immature at birth, our brain disproportionately small in relation to its adult size and open to cultural sculpting at multiple levels. Recognizing this, the new field of neuroanthropology places the brain at the center of discussions about human nature and culture. Anthropology offers brain science more robust accounts of enculturation to explain observable difference in brain function; neuroscience offers anthropology evidence of neuroplasticity's role in social and cultural dynamics. This book provides a foundational text for neuroanthropology, offering basic concepts and case studies at the intersection of brain and culture. After an overview of the field and background information on recent research in biology, a series of case studies demonstrate neuroanthropology in practice. Contributors first focus on capabilities and skills—including memory in medical practice, skill acquisition in martial arts, and the role of humor in coping with breast cancer treatment and recovery—then report on problems and pathologies that range from post-traumatic stress disorder among veterans to smoking as a part of college social life.

On The Concept of History is a politics & social sciences essay written by German philosopher and social science critic Walter Benjamin. On The Concept of History is one of Walter Benjamin's best known, and most controversial works. The politics & social sciences essay is composed of twenty numbered paragraphs in which Benjamin uses poetic and scientific analogies to present a critique of historicism. Walter Benjamin wrote the brief essay shortly before attempting to escape from Vichy France, where French collaborationist government officials were handing over Jewish refugees like Walter Benjamin to the Nazi Gestapo. Walter Benjamin completed On The Concept of History before fleeing to Spain where he unfortunately committed suicide. Benjamin's work is often required textbook reading in various subjects such as humanities, philosophy, and politics & social sciences.
