Hannah Arendt and Simone Weil

Hannah Arendt and Simone Weil

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2025
nidottu
Hannah Arendt and Simone Weil were two of the most compelling political thinkers of the 20th century who, despite having similar life-experiences, developed radically distinct political philosophies. This unique dialogue between the writings of Arendt and Weil highlights Arendt’s secular humanism, her emphasis on heroic action, and her rejection of the moral approach to politics, contrasted starkly with Weil’s religious approach, her faith in the power of divine Goodness, and her other-centric ethic of suffering and affliction. The writings here respect the profound differences between Arendt and Weil whilst pulling out the shared preoccupations of power, violence, freedom, resistance, responsibility, attention, aesthetics, and vulnerability. Without shying away from exploring the more difficult concepts in these philosophers' works, Hannah Arendt and Simone Weil also aims to pull out the relevance of their writings for contemporary issues.

Fantasies of Nina Simone

Fantasies of Nina Simone

Jordan Alexander Stein

DUKE UNIVERSITY PRESS
2024
sidottu
Since her death in 2003, Nina Simone has been the subject of an astonishing number of rereleased, remastered, and remixed albums and compilations as well as biographies, films, viral memes, samples, and soundtracks. In Fantasies of Nina Simone, Jordan Alexander Stein uses an archive of Simone’s performances, images, and writings to examine the space between our collective and individual fantasies about Simone the performer, civil rights activist, and icon, and her own fantasies about herself. Stein outlines how Simone gave voice to personal fantasies through releasing dozens of covers of her white male contemporaries. With her covers of George Harrison, the Bee Gees, Bob Dylan, and others, Simone explored and claimed the power and perspective that come with race and gender privilege. Looking at examples from Simone’s four-decade genre-bending career-from songbook standards, jazz, and pop to folk, junkanoo, and reggae-and at her work’s many uptakes and afterlives, Stein mobilizes the psychoanalytic concept of fantasy to build a black feminist history with and for this multifaceted performing artist.

Innocent 1: Simone Book 1 of the League of Worldly Wise Innocents Series Simone plans to spend her postgraduation summer painting, taking care of her great-aunt, and working in an art gallery -- not mud wrestling and giving her first time to the yard boy. In this new adult contemporary romance with sex, of innocence lost, Simone discovers the real meaning of high class and how her feelings can sweep her away. The glamorous artist or the down to earth hunk who makes a living cutting grass? Four-year college degree in hand, Simone goes to stay with her great-aunt. Free room and board in exchange for taking care of the elderly lady while she's sick. Simone can paint in the day, work at the local art gallery in the evenings. She escapes her mother and stepfather. While she figures out how to advance into the world of fine art, meeting and marrying a wealthy, successful artist. And saving her first time innocence for him. She soon meets Brett. True, his paintings look . . . odd -- downright horrific. Simone accompanies him to his friend's parties. Lots of weirdos, but what can go wrong? Terry Leonard wants to expand his lawn care business. He and his buddy Cal can cut only so many yards every day. He understands the real money is in adding many more services. Calling himself a landscaper. Buying more equipment. Hiring more laborers. His best lawn cutting customer, Mrs. Garrett -- Simone's great-aunt -- hires him to renovate his entire yard. His biggest job. His hope for cash to expand, and referrals from Mrs. Garrett's friends. Simone meets Terry when his lawn mowers raise dust that ruins her painting. Yet, she doesn't fail to notice his big, outdoor-work hardened muscles. Or his handsome -- nearly cute -- face. Terry falls for his customer's great-niece right away, but understands a high class woman doesn't want a man who cuts grass. Worse, Terry's relationship history consists of a long series of one-night stands. He enjoys sampling every woman, but never goes back for seconds. Not even with his father's fiance. His overpowering attraction for Simone disturbs him when he realizes he wants her for life. But can that feeling survive their first sexual encounter? Besides, she wouldn't give up her innocence to the son of a rich lawyer, so why should she let a mere lawn boy her? A new adult contemporary romance of two people in their early 20s learning about the world, themselves, and each other. And what adult love means for them. 3 Flames 64,000 words Therefore, scroll up and try out Innocent 1: Simone now.

Ella era una talentosa joven de veinti n a os cuando conoci a ese hombrecito bajo, feo, pero inteligente, seductor y tan af n a su manera de ver el mundo. Jean-Paul Sartre y Simone de Beauvoir se amaron e hicieron un curioso pacto: cada uno por su lado pod a tener "amores contingentes", sin que ello afectara el "amor necesario" que los un a... y lo cumplieron hasta el final de sus d as. Este libro narra la historia de esa relaci n at pica sin evitar los detalles escabrosos ni regodearse en ellos, sin idealizar a sus protagonistas ni dejar de resaltar lo extraordinario de su contradictorio y duradero amor.
