Modernism Between Benjamin and Goethe

Modernism Between Benjamin and Goethe

Matthew Charles

Bloomsbury Academic
2019
sidottu
Widely regarded as one of the foremost cultural critics of the last century, Walter Benjamin’s relation to Modernism has largely been understood in the context of his reception of the aesthetic theories of Early German Romanticism and his associated interest in avant-garde Surrealism. But this Romantic understanding only gives half the picture. Running through Benjamin’s thought is also a critique of Romanticism, developed in conjunction with a positive engagement with the philosophical, artistic and historical writings of J. W. von Goethe. In demonstrating the significance of these Goethean elements, this book challenges the dominant understanding of Benjamin’s philosophy as essentially Romantic and instead proposes that Goethe’s Classicism, conceived as the counterpoint to Romanticism, permits a corrective to the latter’s deficiencies. Benjamin’s Modernist concept of criticism, it is argued, is constituted in the movement between these polarities of Romanticism and Classicism. Conversely, placing Goethe’s Classicism in relation to Benjamin’s practice of literary criticism reveals historical tensions with Romanticism that constitute the untimely – indeed, it will be argued, cinematic – Modernism of his work. Adopting a transcritical approach, this book alternates between Benjamin and Goethe in relation to the experiences of colour, language and technology, assembling a constellation of philosophical and artistic figures between them, including the writings of Kant, Nietzsche, Cohen, Deleuze, Koselleck, Klages, and the work of Grünewald, Marées, Klee, Turner, Hulme, Eisenstein, Tretyakov, and Murnau.

Making All Things New – Inaugurated Eschatology for the Life of the Church

Making All Things New – Inaugurated Eschatology for the Life of the Church

Benjamin L. Gladd; Matthew S. Harmon; G. K. Beale

Baker Academic, Div of Baker Publishing Group
2016
nidottu
Many people think eschatology refers to events occurring at the end of history. In this book, two scholars with expertise in biblical eschatology argue that God's kingdom breaking into this world through Jesus Christ has inaugurated a new creation, a reality that should shape pastoral leadership and be reflected in the life and ministry of the church. Brief and accessibly written, this book articulates the practical implications of G. K. Beale's New Testament Biblical Theology and features an introductory chapter by Beale. Each chapter concludes with practical suggestions and a list of books for further study.

The Next Red Wave

The Next Red Wave

Benjamin Sisney; Jordan Sekulow; Matthew Clark

Center Street

sidottu
Sekulow says that change isnt' happening because the deep state bureaucracy will stop at nothing to undermine the conservative agenda - even when that's the agenda chosen by the American voter. The radical left continues to ferociously force its liberal agenda on the American people. The Republican Majority in both Houses of Congress that was elected has proven itself incompetent - both feckless in its conviction and ineffective in accomplishing even the slightest reforms. The deck seems stacked against us. It is. This is not the America we deserve.We deserve politicians who keep their promises. And to hold their feet to the fire, we must be actively engaged in public discourse in between elections.Failure to repeal ObamaCare, refusal to tackle entitlement reform, continued funding for Planned Parenthood, budget bickering and continued fiscal irresponsibility, and a national debt that will crush our children's future. This is not acceptable.The Republican Majority we elected refuses to compromise with its own members to secure even the smallest advances, nevermind the big picture.If we allow broken political promises, apolitical apathy, and the virus of bureaucratic deception to continue to erode the conservative agenda we chose, we could lose our America.It's time to fight back for the America we deserve.

Billionaires and Stealth Politics

Billionaires and Stealth Politics

Benjamin I. Page; Jason Seawright; Matthew J. Lacombe

University of Chicago Press
2018
sidottu
In 2016, when millions of Americans voted for Donald Trump, many believed his claims that personal wealth would free him from wealthy donors and allow him to “drain the swamp.” But then Trump appointed several billionaires and multimillionaires to high-level positions and pursued billionaire-friendly policies, such as cutting corporate income taxes. Why the change from his fiery campaign rhetoric and promises to the working class? This should not be surprising, argue Benjamin I. Page, Jason Seawright, and Matthew J. Lacombe: As the gap between the wealthiest and the rest of us has widened, the few who hold one billion dollars or more in net worth have begun to play a more and more active part in politics—with serious consequences for democracy in the United States. Page, Seawright, and Lacombe argue that while political contributions offer a window onto billionaires’ influence, especially on economic policy, they do not present a full picture of policy preferences and political actions. That is because on some of the most important issues, including taxation, immigration, and Social Security, billionaires have chosen to engage in “stealth politics.” They try hard to influence public policy, making large contributions to political parties and policy-focused causes, leading policy-advocacy organizations, holding political fundraisers, and bundling others’ contributions—all while rarely talking about public policy to the media. This means that their influence is not only unequal but also largely unaccountable to and unchallengeable by the American people. Stealth politics makes it difficult for ordinary citizens to know what billionaires are doing or mobilize against it. The book closes with remedies citizens can pursue if they wish to make wealthy Americans more politically accountable, such as public financing of political campaigns and easier voting procedures, and notes the broader types of reforms, such as a more progressive income tax system, that would be needed to increase political equality and reinvigorate majoritarian democracy in the United States.

Presidential Power

Presidential Power

Matthew Crenson; Ginsberg Benjamin

WW Norton Co
2007
sidottu
A history and evaluation of the "imperial presidency" in America argues that presidents from the last thirty years have increased the power of their station at the expense of democracy, in an account that expands its coverage beyond foreign policy practices to reveal less-realized means through which the executive branch's power has been institutionalized.

Social World of Ancient Israel – 1250–587 BCE

Social World of Ancient Israel – 1250–587 BCE

Don C. Benjamin; Victor H. Matthews

Baker Academic, Div of Baker Publishing Group
2005
nidottu
Getting a fix on the social context of the Hebrew Bible is imperative for anyone reconstructing either the "story" of the text or the "history" behind the text. Resources in this area often prove overspecialized and arcane, and can require highly sophisticated skills in cultural anthropology or Semitic languages just to read the table of contents. Social World of Ancient Israel, 1250-587 BCE offers those interested in learning about the biblical world a more user-friendly framework for viewing the broader picture; at the same time it relies upon the latest methodologies of cultural anthropology and biblical analysis in its presentation. Painting a picture in broad but precise strokes, the authors portray the landscape of ancient Israel in new and exciting colors that expert and student alike will appreciate.Social World of Ancient Israel takes a unique look at the most prominent social institutions of the world of early Israel and the period of the monarchy, and then shows how properly understanding these social institutions is essential for sound biblical interpretation. Immersing the reader into five major areas of daily life in antiquity--politics, economics, diplomacy, law, and education--Matthews and Benjamin explore the ways in which knowing how "players" function in these institutions, such as "father/mother," "prophet/wise one," "host/stranger," can shape our understanding of earliest Israel. Perhaps most significantly, the book gently exposes the inefficiency of past anthropological models for interpreting the relationships, attitudes and social conventions of earliest Israel. Its corrective insights will enable scholar and student alike to plot new approaches for studying the Hebrew Bible and the ancient people of Israel.
