Il problema centrale che si cerca di chiarire un tentativo di comprendere il pensiero dialettico di Ren Girard. Egli difende infatti l'ipotesi che il desiderio umano sia violento e che, a sua volta, possa essere positivo e negativo, oltre che mimetico. Dove arriva e perch attira su di s posizioni violentemente antagoniste, pur essendo riconosciuto per la sua convinzione cristiana di non violenza? Come affrontare una teoria che "non empiricamente dimostrabile" - per parlare del kantismo moderno - e che, a sua volta, alla base di tutte le societ , culture e religioni? Girard intu che la violenza e il sacro sono all'origine dell'organizzazione sociale, alla base del processo di civilizzazione. Il processo di civilizzazione dipende dalla scoperta di un meccanismo che permetta di controllare la violenza scatenata da ci che egli definisce desiderio mimetico. Il desiderio mimetico contagioso e pu aggravarsi in proporzione diretta al numero di agenti che si trovano nel cortocircuito della rivalit mimetica, la rivalit nei gruppi sociali. Se non viene sviluppata alcuna forma di controllo della mimesi, la stessa formazione sociale pu disintegrarsi in mezzo a un conflitto generalizzato.
Effetto istopatologico del cloruro di alluminio sul rene del coniglio
Il presente studio stato condotto per indagare l'effetto tossico dipendente dal tempo di una dose subletale di cloruro di alluminio somministrato per via orale a conigli maschi (Oryctolagus cuniculus) sull'istologia dei tessuti renali. Gli animali sono stati divisi in un gruppo di controllo e un gruppo trattato. Gli animali del gruppo trattato hanno ricevuto cloruro di alluminio alla dose di 25 mg/kg disciolto in soluzione salina allo 0,9% ogni 48 ore, rispettivamente per 15 e 30 giorni, mentre gli animali del gruppo di controllo hanno ricevuto solo soluzione salina allo 0,9%. Gli animali sono stati sezionati a intervalli di 15 giorni. I tessuti renali sono stati trattati e colorati con ematossilina ed eosina per gli studi istologici. Sono stati osservati cambiamenti istologici indotti nei tessuti renali degli animali trattati. Lo scopo principale di questa ricerca era di valutare la tossicit del cloruro di alluminio nei reni dei conigli.
Of Mind and Man: The Historical Context of Rene Descartes' Contribution to Physiological Psychology
Cogito, ergo sum. With these words, Descartes established the foundation of his philosophy of man, man's consciousness, and man's place in the world.In 1924, the Nobel Prize-winning Russian physiologist, Pavlov, wrote: Three hundred years ago Descartes evolved the idea of the reflex. Starting from the assumption that animals behaved simply as machines, he regarded every activity of the organism as a necessary reaction to some external stimulus, the connection between the stimulus and response being made through a definite nervous path: and this connection, he stated, was the fundamental purpose of the nervous structures in the animal body. This was the basis on which the study of the nervous system was firmly established. The author is a retired professor who taught medical physiology and humanities after earning advanced degrees in both. He has appeared on the Discovery Channel in the Crime to Remember series in an episode entitled, "The Shot Doctor," which features his true crime book, Zora Hurston and the Strange Case of Ruby McCollum." The current publication is based upon his 1982 Florida State University dissertation in the humanities.
Tragic Novels, René Girard and the American Dream
This book draws on the philosopher René Girard to argue that three twentieth-century American novels (Jeffrey Eugenides’s The Virgin Suicides, Rick Moody’s The Ice Storm, and Richard Yates’s Revolutionary Road) are tragedies.Until now, Girardian literary analysis has generally focused on representations of human desire in texts, and neglected both other emotions and the place of tragedy. Carly Osborn addresses these omissions by using Girardian theory to present evidence that novels can indeed be tragedies. The book advances the scholarship of tragedy that has run from Aristotle to Nietzsche to Terry Eagleton, proposing a new way to read modern novels through ancient traditions. In addition, this is the first work to examine the place of women as victims, or in Girardian terms, ‘scapegoats’, in twentieth century fiction, specifically by considering the representation of women’s bodies and ambivalence about their identities.In deploying a rich and vivid array of tragic tropes, The Virgin Suicides, The Ice Storm, and Revolutionary Road participate in a deep-rooted American tragic tradition. Tragic Novels, the American Dream and René Girard will be of interest to those working at the intersection of philosophy and literature, as well as Girard specialists.

In a new historical interpretation of the relationship between Australia and East Timor, Susan Connelly draws on the mimetic theory of René Girard to show how the East Timorese people were scapegoated by Australian foreign policy during the 20th century.Charting key developments in East Timor’s history and applying three aspects of Girard’s framework – the scapegoat, texts of persecution and conversion – Connelly reveals Australia’s mimetic dependence on Indonesia and other nations for security. She argues that Australia’s complicity in the Indonesian invasion and occupation of East Timor perpetuated the sacrifice of the Timorese people as victims, thus calling into question the traditional Australian values of egalitarianism and fairness. Connelly also examines the embryonic conversion process apparent in levels of recognition of the innocent victim and of the Australian role in East Timor’s suffering, as well as the consequent effects on Australian self-perception.Emphasising Girardian considerations of fear, suffering, forgiveness and conversion, this book offers a fresh perspective on Australian and Timorese relations that in turn sheds light on the origins and operations of human violence.

The Book of Imitation and Desire: Reading Milan Kundera with Rene Girard
Trevor Cribben Merrill offers a bold reassessment of Milan Kundera’s place in the contemporary canon. Harold Bloom and others have dismissed the Franco-Czech author as a maker of “period pieces” that lost currency once the Berlin Wall fell. Merrill refutes this view, revealing a previously unexplored dimension of Kundera’s fiction. Building on theorist René Girard’s notion of “triangular desire,” he shows that modern classics such as The Unbearable Lightness of Being and The Book of Laughter and Forgetting display a counterintuitive—and bitterly funny—understanding of human attraction.Most works of fiction (and most movies, too) depict passionate feelings as deeply authentic and spontaneous. Kundera’s novels and short stories overturn this romantic dogma. A pounding heart and sweaty palms could mean that we have found “the One” at last—or they could attest to the influence of a model whose desires we are unconsciously borrowing: our amorous predilections may owe less to personal taste or physical chemistry than they do to imitative desire. At once a comprehensive survey of Kundera’s novels and a witty introduction to Girard’s mimetic theory, The Book of Imitation and Desire challenges our assumptions about human motive and renews our understanding of a major contemporary author.

I, Rene Tardi, Prisoner of War in Stalag IIB Vol. 1
In the first of two graphic novel volumes, Jacques Tardi -- with four decades of cartooning and almost two dozen graphic novels behind him -- tells Rene Tardi's story, masterfully recreating historical and personal details with remarkable fidelity, guided by extensive research and his father's notes. Featuring some of Jacques's most intense and meticulous drawing, punctuated by somber grays and punches of red and blue rendered beautifully by Rachel Tardi, Stalag 2B is a personal and artistic triumph.
