The Sweeter Side of Pain: ... a Critical Look at Some Modern Feminist Classics: Simone de Beauvoir, Betty Friedan, Germaine Greer, Kate Millett,
The author questions the assumption that the triumph of feminism has resulted in a true challenge to old symbolic patterns of femininity. She takes a look at a group of feminist thinkers central to the "second wave" of feminism, who were all party to seducing the entire Western world with their visions and licensing in the 20th century a powerful new agenda. Far from representing anything new, she argues, the writers in question put forward some surprisingly stereotyped generalizations and images of woman.
Furla Series #01 Time After Time, Space After Space: Simone Forti, Alexandra Bachzetsis, Adelita Husni-Bey, Paulina Olowska, Christian Marclay
The genesis of this project is linked to the historical nature of the Museo del Novecento, a museum that houses one of the world's leading collections of Italian 20th-century art: starting with the avant-garde movements of the early 20th century, and all the major representatives of Futurism, it moves on to other currents and great figures like Giorgio Morandi and Giorgio de Chirico, the abstract art of the 1930s, Art Informel in the 1950s and '60s, Piero Manzoni and Azimuth, Kinetic and programmed art, Analytical Painting in the 1970s, and the Roman school of Pop art, all the way to Arte Povera. A turning point in this journey through a century of Italian art is Lucio Fontana, and an arresting room dedicated to the artist houses the reconstruction (2010) of his famous Neon per la IX Triennale di Milano (1951), a Soffitto spaziale (1956), and a series of Concetti spaziali.
Frihetens lågor : filosofins räddning i en mörk tid 1933–1943. Simone de Beauvoir, Simone Weil, Hannah Arendt, Ayn Rand
Wolfram Eilenbergers "Frihetens lågor" låter oss följa fyra filosoferande och skrivande kvinnor under de mörka åren 1933–1943: Simone de Beauvoir, Simone Weil, Hannah Arendt, Ayn Rand. Mot bakgrund av erfarenheterna av totalitarism, landsflykt och krig försöker de reda ut frågor av både politisk och existentiell karaktär. Hur olika de än var – revolutionären och senare kristna mystikern Simon Weil å ena sidan, den jag-förhärligande och elitistiska Ayn Rand å den andra – förenades de, enligt Eilenberger, i sina ansträngningar att komma till klarhet om frihetens villkor, om det spänningsfyllda förhållandet mellan jaget och de andra. Efter kriget skulle Simone de Beauvoir komma att lägga en grund för vår tids feminism med "Det andra könet" (1949), medan Hannah Arendt i "Totalitarismens ursprung" (1951), som inledde hennes bana som en av 1900-talet viktiga politiska tänkare, försökte förstå rötterna till den katastrof som hon genomlevt. Ayn Rand, som emigrerat till USA från Sovjetunionen, fick efter stor möda sin roman "Urkällan" utgiven 1943. Den skulle komma att sälja i miljon­upplagor och göra henne till en libertariansk föregångs­gestalt. Beauvoirs studiekamrat Simone Weil, lika kompromisslös i sitt liv som i sitt tänkande, svalt sig till döds i ett engelskt sanatorium 1943, efterlämnande ett rikt politiskt och religiöst författarskap. Om henne sade Albert Camus att hon var ”vår tids enda stora ande”. "Frihetens lågor" väver på ett sinnrikt sätt samman dessa fyra livsöden och ger oss en konkret bild av samspelet mellan liv och tänkande. Wolfram Eilenberger är författare och filosof. 2018 utkom han med "Zeit der Zauberer", en bok om filosofins stora årtionde 1919–1929, för vilken han belönades med Bayerischer Buchpreis och Prix du Meilleur Livre Étranger.
Words and Songs of Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday, and Nina Simone
This book explores the relationship between three African American women's dance-art-music sensibilities within the context of a Pan African aesthetic. Its purpose is three-fold: to show commonalities between Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday and Nina Simone's lives and original compositions; to codify, examine and evaluate their selected song performances in accordance with the Pan African aesthetic "Nzuri theory/model;" and to illuminate the vast sources of transformational values that aesthetic analysis of African American song performance can foster.Following concordant procedures and principles of Afrocentricity, the study focuses on Smith, Holiday and Simone's performances as part of a whole African artistic and cultural value system. The goal of the Afrocentric methodological structure is to locate relevant African dynamics in songs and to promote knowledge for cultural transformation and continuity. Its use in this study provides meta-criteria for analyzing African American music, which the author has used to uniquely argue connections between African cultural memory and African-derived cultural expression.

At the Existentialist Café: Freedom, Being, and Apricot Cocktails with Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Albert Camus, Martin Heidegger, Maurice M
Named one of the Ten Best Books of 2016 by the New York Times, a spirited account of a major intellectual movement of the twentieth century and the revolutionary thinkers who came to shape it, by the best-selling author of How to Live and Humanly Possible Sarah Bakewell. Paris, 1933: three contemporaries meet over apricot cocktails at the Bec-de-Gaz bar on the rue Montparnasse. They are the young Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, and longtime friend Raymond Aron, a fellow philosopher who raves to them about a new conceptual framework from Berlin called Phenomenology. "You see," he says, "if you are a phenomenologist you can talk about this cocktail and make philosophy out of it " It was this simple phrase that would ignite a movement, inspiring Sartre to integrate Phenomenology into his own French, humanistic sensibility, thereby creating an entirely new philosophical approach inspired by themes of radical freedom, authentic being, and political activism. This movement would sweep through the jazz clubs and caf s of the Left Bank before making its way across the world as Existentialism. Featuring not only philosophers, but also playwrights, anthropologists, convicts, and revolutionaries, At the Existentialist Caf follows the existentialists' story, from the first rebellious spark through the Second World War, to its role in postwar liberation movements such as anti-colonialism, feminism, and gay rights. Interweaving biography and philosophy, it is the epic account of passionate encounters--fights, love affairs, mentorships, rebellions, and long partnerships--and a vital investigation into what the existentialists have to offer us today, at a moment when we are once again confronting the major questions of freedom, global responsibility, and human authenticity in a fractious and technology-driven world.
