Language and Violence

This book combines scholarship in pragmatics, linguistic anthropology, and philosophy to address the problem of violence in language. How do words wound? What is the relation between physical and linguistic violence? How do racial invectives, misogynous language, homophobic slurs, among other forms of hate speech, affect the body and make us vulnerable to conditions of injurability that language brings about? While investigating the limits that violence poses for everyday speech action, understanding, representation, and our shared frameworks of intelligibility, this collective volume theoretically bridges knowledge from canons in linguistic pragmatics, continental philosophy and linguistic/semiotic anthropology and the dialogic perspective of subjects who are located in the peripheries of South America and Europe. The scholarship gathered here intends to offer a perspective on the violence of words that is attentive to practices and sensibilities that do not always fit into hegemonic ideologies of self and language.

  • Publisher: Routledge

The long tradition of Kierkegaard studies has made it impossible for individual scholars to have a complete overview of the vast field of Kierkegaard research. The large and ever increasing number of publications on Kierkegaard in the languages of the world can be simply bewildering even for experienced scholars. The present work constitutes a systematic bibliography which aims to help students and researchers navigate the seemingly endless mass of publications. The volume is divided into two large sections. Part I, which covers Tomes I-V, is dedicated to individual bibliographies organized according to specific language. This includes extensive bibliographies of works on Kierkegaard in some 41 different languages. Part II, which covers Tomes VI-VII, is dedicated to shorter, individual bibliographies organized according to specific figures who are in some way relevant for Kierkegaard. The goal has been to create the most exhaustive bibliography of Kierkegaard literature possible, and thus the bibliography is not limited to any specific time period but instead spans the entire history of Kierkegaard studies.

Estranhas ficções de tempo, morte e utopia

A literatura é sempre um exercício de perplexidade, isto é, um olhar enviesado sobre o mundo e sobre os seres humanos. É um olhar que não aceita plenamente o que vê, porque o visto é sempre enganoso. Talvez escrevamos contos, poemas, romances, porque não queremos aceitar a vida "como ela é" e, sim, como gostaríamos que fosse; o escrito é, ao mesmo tempo, um exercício de desolação e de conquista. Desolamo-nos com o mundo e o conquistamos pela palavra, mas nunca abandonamos nossa essencial perplexidade; é ela que nos torna vivos. Neste livro tudo isso ­fica muito claro. Cada autor, cada autora, tem um olhar especí­fico sobre a aventura existencial, que transcende a própria e...
