- Capricious Metaphysics contra Polarization: Lev Shestov’s Creative
Anthropology Authors:
Eric Gans
Abstract: Eric Gans’s conception of the origin of metaphysics leads him to conclusions about metaphysics similar to those held by Lev Shestov, an early twentieth-century philosopher who exerted a great influence on the existentialist movement in the early to mid twentieth century. This paper illuminates the similarities between these conclusions in order to demonstrate how...The post Capricious Metaphysics contra Polarization: Lev Shestov’s Creative Anthropology appeared first on Anthropoetics.

- The Human as a Danger to Itself: Murder in the 180th Degree
Authors:
Eric Gans
Abstract: This article examines Generative Anthropology with respect to its hypothesis that deferral is at the foundation of the human and draws out elements of GA as a lived philosophy or “spiritual discipline.” To this end, it examines the centrality of different modes of deferral in the successful treatment of addiction and the rôles of...The post The Human as a Danger to Itself: Murder in the 180th Degree appeared first on Anthropoetics.

- Review of Magdalena Zlocka-Dabrowska’s Generative Anthropology in
Contexts and Texts Authors:
Eric Gans
Abstract: Magdalena Zlocka-Dabrowska’s Generative Anthropology in Contexts and Texts (Warsaw, UKSW, 2022) is informed throughout by the firm conviction that Generative Anthropology, the mode of thought predicated upon Eric Gans’s originary hypothesis of human and language origin, is capable of, obliged, and even destined to engage with all discourses in all disciplines engaging in inquiries touching...The post Review of Magdalena Zlocka-Dabrowska’s Generative Anthropology in Contexts and Texts appeared first on Anthropoetics.

- Gabriel’s Epiphany and the End of Resentment: Religious Feeling in James
Joyce’s The Dead Authors:
Eric Gans
Abstract: This article supports three interconnected points regarding James Joyce’s “The Dead.” First, the paper shows mimetic desire’s importance in the early formation of an aesthetic experience. Gabriel Conway’s realization that his wife Gretta has been harboring romantic passion for a long-dead, yet rival in Michael Furey, naturally stimulates jealousy, which is a consequence of...The post Gabriel’s Epiphany and the End of Resentment: Religious Feeling in James Joyce’s The Dead appeared first on Anthropoetics.

- Mimesis in Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep'
Authors:
Eric Gans
Abstract: In Philip K. Dick’s novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep' the androids are the bioengineered mimesis of a human yet designed to lack empathy so as to serve more effectively as slaves. Drawing on the anthropological studies of Michael Tomasello, René Girard, and Eric Gans, this essay shows that mimesis as psychological identification...The post Mimesis in Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep' appeared first on Anthropoetics.

- Retrieving the Paradox: Freud’s Death Drive and the Originary
Concept of Deferral Authors:
Eric Gans
Abstract: In this paper I explore the idea that Freud’s death drive, despite having its explanatory status and truth claims questioned, is an anthropologically astute concept that embraces the paradox of symbolic consciousness. Any theory of the human must accommodate the paradoxicality of human thinking, motivations, and cultural forms to generate useful theoretical insights. Even...The post Retrieving the Paradox: Freud’s Death Drive and the Originary Concept of Deferral appeared first on Anthropoetics. PubDate: Fri, 22 Apr 2022 22:19:25 +000
