(P/B) REMNANTS OF AUSCHWITZ
THE WITNESS AND THE ARCHIVE
Εκδότης: ZONE BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1791-0012

"In its form, this book is a kind of perpetual commentary on testimony. It did not seem possible to proceed otherwise. At a certain point, it became clear that testimony contained at its core an essential lacuna; in other words, the survivors bore witness to something it is impossible to bear witness to. As a consequence, commenting on survivors' testimony necessarily meant interrogating this lacuna or, more precisely, attempting to listen to it. Listening to something absent did not prove fruitless work for this author. Above all, it made...

(H/B) MAKING NOISE
FROM BABEL TO THE BIG BANG AND BEYOND
Εκδότης: ZONE BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1791-0024

When did the "silent deeps" become cacophonous and galaxies begin to swim in a sea of cosmic noise? Why do we think that noises have colors and that colors can be loud? How loud is too loud, and says who? Attending to sounds at once physical and political, Hillel Schwartz listens across millennia for a trajectory of changes in the Western experience and understanding of noise. From the uproarious junior gods of Babylonian epic to crying infants heard over baby monitors, from doubly-mythic Echo to loudspeaker feedback, Making Noise follows ...

(P/B) THE INVENTION OF PORNOGRAPHY
OBSCENITY AND THE ORIGINS OF MODERNITY, 1500-1800
Εκδότης: ZONE BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1791-0009

In America today the intense and controversial debate over the censorship of pornography continues to call into question the values of a modern, democratic culture. This ground-breaking collection of ten critical essays traces the history and various uses of pornography in early modern Europe, offering the historical perspective crucial to understanding current issues of artistic censorship. The essays, by historians and literary theorists, examine how pornography emerged between 1500 and 1800 as a literary practice and a category of knowl...

(H/B) WALLED STATES, WANING SOVEREIGNTY
Εκδότης: ZONE BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1791-0023

Why, just two decades after international celebrations of the fall of the Berlin Wall, are so many nation-states building elaborate walls at or near their borders? Why walls now, given growing global connectedness and given the general imperviousness of late modern powers - from capital to religion to terror - to physical blockading? How do walls shore up an image of sovereign statehood and to what extent do they fortify reactionary national imaginaries? What do the new walls perform symbolically, materially, psychically? In "Walled States...

(P/B) THE CULTURE OF THE COPY
STRIKING LIKENESSES, UNREASONABLE FACSIMILES
Εκδότης: ZONE BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1791-0003

The Culture of the Copy is an unprecedented attempt to make sense of our Western fascination with replicas, duplicates, and twins. Through intriguing historical analysis and case studies in contemporary culture, Hillel Schwartz investigates most varieties of simulacra, while working through a range of modernist, feminist, and postmodern theories about copies and mechanical reproduction. This work is a stunning, innovative blend of microsociology, cultural history, and philosophical reflection that will fascinate anyone concerned with probl...

(H/B) PROFANATIONS
Εκδότης: ZONE BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1791-0018

The Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben has always been an original reader of texts, understanding their many rich and multiple historical, aesthetic, and political meanings and effects. In Profanations, Agamben has assembled for the first time some of his most pivotal essays on photography, the novel, and film. A meditation on memory and oblivion, on what is lost and what remains, Profanations proves yet again that Agamben is one of the most provocative writers of our times. In ten essays, Agamben rethinks approaches to a series of litera...

SOLITARY SEX
A CULTURAL HISTORY OF MASTURBATION
Εκδότης: ZONE BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1791-0001

Modern masturbation can be dated with a precision rare in cultural history. It was born in, or very close to, the same year as that wild and woolly and profoundly self-conscious exemplar of "our" kind of human, Jean-Jacques Rousseau. It arrived in the same decade as Daniel Defoe's first novels and the first stock-market crashes. (. . .) It is a creature of the Enlightnment. (. . .) (ΑΠΟ ΤΟΝ ΠΡΟΛΟΓΟ ΤΗΣ ΕΚΔΟΣΗΣ)...

DETOUR AND ACCESS (P/B)
STRATEGIES OF MEANING IN CHINA AND GREECE
Εκδότης: ZONE BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 1791-0002

(. . .) Jullien rereads the major texts of Chinese thought - "The Book of Songs", "Confucius's Analects", and the work of Mencius and Lao-Tse. He addresses the question of oblique, indirect, and allusive meaning in order to explore how the techniques of detour provide access to subtler meanings than are attainable through direct approaches. Indirect speech, Jullien concludes, yields a complex mode of indication, open to multiple perspectives and variations, infinitely adaptable to particular situations and contexts. Concentrating on that w...
