Logic and Philosophy of Mathematics in the Early Husserl
Author: Stefania Centrone
File Type: pdf
Logic and Philosophy of Mathematics in the Early Husserl focuses on the first ten years of Edmund Husserls work, from the publication of his Philosophy of Arithmetic (1891) to that of his Logical Investigations (190001), and aims to precisely locate his early work in the fields of logic, philosophy of logic and philosophy of mathematics. Unlike most phenomenologists, the author refrains from reading Husserls early work as a more or less immature sketch of claims consolidated only in his later phenomenology, and unlike the majority of historians of logic she emphasizes the systematic strength and the originality of Husserls logico-mathematical work. The book attempts to reconstruct the discussion between Husserl and those philosophers and mathematicians who contributed to new developments in logic, such as Leibniz, Bolzano, the logical algebraists (especially Boole and Schroder), Frege, and Hilbert and his school. It presents both a comprehensive critical examination of some of the major works produced by Husserl and his antagonists in the last decade of the 19th century and a formal reconstruction of many texts from Husserls Nachla that have not yet been the object of systematical scrutiny. This volume will be of particular interest to researchers working in the history, and in the philosophy, of logic and mathematics, and more generally, to analytical philosophers and phenomenologists with a background in standard logic.ReviewFrom the reviews Edmund Husserl is generally known as the philosopher who introduced the phenomenological method in philosophy. He developed a philosophy of arithmetic in which he discussed the concepts of number and set. It contains valuable insights and he has, for example, what is essentially the notion of a partially recursive function. her book is a welcome contribution to our further understanding of a very exciting period in the history of the foundations of mathematics.

Living with the Dead presents a detailed analysis of ancestor worship in Egypt, using a diverse range of material, both archaeological and anthropological, to examine the relationship between the living and the dead. Iconography and terminology associated with the deceased reveal indistinct differences between the blessedness and malevolence and that the potent spirit of the dead required constant propitiation in the form of worship and offerings. A range of evidence is presented for mortuary cults that were in operation throughout Egyptian history and for the various places, such as the house, shrines, chapels and tomb doorways, where the living could interact with the dead. The private statue cult, where images of individuals were venerated as intermediaries between people and the Gods is also discussed. Collective gatherings and ritual feasting accompanied the burial rites with separate, mortuary banquets serving to maintain ongoing ritual practices focusing on the deceased. Something of a contradiction in attitudes is expressed in the evidence for tomb robbery, the reuse of tombs and funerary equipment and the ways in which communities dealt with the death and burial of children and others on the fringe of society. This significant study furthers our understanding of the complex relationship the ancient Egyptians had with death and with their ancestors both recently departed and those in the distant past.**

Gabriel Kuhns excellent volume illuminates a profound global revolutionary moment, in which brilliant ideas and debates lit the sky.Marcus Rediker, author of Villains of all Nations and The Slave ShipThis remarkable collection, skillfully edited by Gabriel Kuhn, brings to life that most pivotal of revolutions, crackling with the acrid odor of street fighting, insurgent hopes, and ultimately defeat In an era brimming with anticapitalist aspirations, these pages ring with that still unmet revolutionary promise of a better world I was, I am, I shall be.Sasha Lilley, author of Capital and Its Discontents and coauthor of CatastrophismThe German Revolution erupted out of the ashes of World War I, triggered by mutinying sailors refusing to be sacrificed in the final carnage of the war. While the Social Democrats grabbed power, radicals across the country rallied to establish a communist society under the slogan All Power to the Councils! The Spartacus League launched an uprising in Berlin, council republics were proclaimed in Bremen and Bavaria, and workers revolts shook numerous German towns. Yet in an act that would tragically shape the course of history, the Social Democratic government crushed the rebellions with the help of right-wing militias, paving the way for the ill-fated Weimar Republicand ultimately the ascension of the Nazis.This definitive documentary history collects manifestos, speeches, articles, and letters from the German RevolutionRosa Luxemburg, the Revolutionary Stewards, and Gustav Landauer amongst othersintroduced and annotated by the editor. Many documents, such as the anarchist Erich Muhsams comprehensive account of the Bavarian Council Republic, are presented here in English for the first time. The volume also includes materials from the Red Ruhr Army that repelled the reactionary Kapp Putsch in 1920 and the communist bandits that roamed Eastern Germany until 1921. All Power to the Councils! provides a dynamic and vivid picture of a time of great hope and devastating betrayal.Drawing on newly uncovered material through pioneering archival historical research, Gabriel Kuhns powerful book on the German workers councils movement is essential reading to understanding the way forward for democratic worker control today.Immanuel Ness, Graduate Center for Worker Education, Brooklyn CollegeAn indispensable resource on a world-historic event.Lucien van der Walt, Rhodes University, South Africa**

A book about what the Cambridge Analytica scandal shows That surveillance and data privacy is every citizens concern An important look at how 50 years of American privacy law is inadequate for the todays surveillance technology, from acclaimed Ars Technica* senior business editor Cyrus Farivar. Until the 21st century, most of our activities were private by default, public only through effort today anything that touches digital space has the potential (and likelihood) to remain somewhere online forever. That means all of the technologies that have made our lives easier, faster, better, andor more efficient have also simultaneously made it easier to keep an eye on our activities. Or, as we recently learned from reports about Cambridge Analytica, our data might be turned into a propaganda machine against us. In 10 crucial legal cases, Habeas Data explores the tools of surveillance that exist today, how they work, and what the implications are for the future of privacy. **

Shakespeare, Spencer and the Matter of Britain examines the work of two of the most important English Renaissance authors in terms of the cultural, social and political contexts of early modern Britain. Andrew Hadfield demonstrates that the poetry of Edmund Spenser and the plays of William Shakespeare demand to be read in terms of an expanding Elizabethan and Jacobean culture in which a dominant English identity had to come to terms with the Irish, Scots and Welsh who were now also subjects of the crown.ReviewOver the past fifteen years, the work of Andrew Hadfield has been at the forefront of examining Irelands importance for the Elizabethan imagination. His new collection of essays...usefully assembles a number of pieces that have appeared over the past decade, with two previously unpublished papers. - Times Literary Supplement Hadfields argument is exciting and stimulating...surely deserves gratitude of Shakespeareans and Spenserians for preventing both misopolitical reading and naive politicization of the early modern texts - Mari Mizuno, Studies in English Literature, English No.47, (Mar., 2006) About the AuthorAndrew Hadfield is a Professor of English at the University of Sussex.

Winner, 2017 American Theater and Drama SocietyJohn W. Frick Book Award Winner, 2017 ASTR Barnard Hewitt Award for Outstanding Research in Theater History Hillary Millers Drop Dead Performance in Crisis, 1970s New York offers a fascinating and comprehensive exploration of how the citys financial crisis shaped theater and performance practices in this turbulent decade and beyond. New York Citys performing arts community suffered greatly from a severe reduction in grants in the mid-1970s. A scholar and playwright, Miller skillfully synthesizes economics, urban planning, tourism, and immigration to create a map of the interconnected urban landscape and to contextualize the struggle for resources. She reviews how numerous theater professionals, including Ellen Stewart of La MaMa E.T.C. and Julie Bovasso, Vinnette Carroll, and Joseph Papp of The Public Theater, developed innovative responses to survive the crisis. Combining theater history and close readings of productions, each of Millers chapters is a case study focusing on a company, a production, or an element of New Yorks theater infrastructure. Her expansive survey visits Broadway, Off-, Off-Off-, Coney Island, the Brooklyn Academy of Music, community theater, and other locations to bring into focus the large-scale changes wrought by the financial realignments of the day. Nuanced, multifaceted, and engaging, Millers lively account of the financial crisis and resulting transformation of the performing arts community offers an essential chronicle of the decade and demonstrates its importance in understanding our present moment. **Review Drop Dead makes a distinctive and valuable contribution to theatre and performance studies scholarship. It is careful and nuanced in its approach to theatre-historical practices, and introduces an urban frame that changes how these practices have commonly been narrated and understood. Michael McKinnie, author of *City Stages Theatre and Urban Space in a Global City * ...an especially fascinating read *American Theater * In her exciting study, named for the Daily News headline of 1975 protesting the federal refusal to help out New York City, Hillary Miller combines urban geography and theater history to focus on the cash-starved performing arts in New Yorks fiscal crisis of the 1970s. Reversing the traditional zero-sum picture of New York theater, Miller takes little interest in the commercial stages of midtown Manhattan and focuses instead on Brooklyn, street and neighborhood performance across the city, and the downtown emergence of La MaMa and the Public. The reader is left almost aching with nostalgia for the bad old times.Elinor Fuchs, author of The Death of Character Perspectives on Theater after Modernism Drop Dead newly centralizes the 1970s economic crisis... and does so with careful attentionto geography, race, and management styles. The books archive of venuesproductively undoes neat categories of experimental, community, and Broadwaytheatre... Millers archive also interlaces economic crisis with race, illuminatinghow advertising failed to connect with black Broadway attendees and howsome white Lincoln Center subscribers devalued playwrights of colour asnon-canonical. As such, the book might buttress theatre courses on the1970s, New York City, and neoliberalism. Additionally, an arts managementcourse might benefit from examining the management styles of Stewart, Carroll,and Papp to consider how their mediation of crisisenmeshed in geography,race, and the federal neglect of New York Cityproduced shiftingmodes of producing and valuing theatre.Modern Drama About the Author HILLARY MILLER is an assistant professor of theater at California State University, Northridge.

The epoch-making revolutionary period universally known in Germany as 68 can be argued to have predated that year and to have extended well into the 1970s. It continues to affect German society and culture to this day. Yet while scholars have written extensively about 1968 and the cinema of other countries, relatively little sustained scholarly attention has thus far been paid to 1968 and West German, East German, and Austrian cinemas. Now, five decades later, Celluloid Revolt sets out to redress that situation, generating new insights into what constituted German cinema around 1968 and beyond. Contributors engage a range of cinemas, spanning experimental and avant-garde cinema, installations and exhibits short films, animated films, and crime films collectively produced cinemas, feminist films, and Arbeiterfilme (workers films) as well as their relationship to cinemas of other countries, such as French cinema verite and US direct cinema. Contributors Marco Abel, Tilman Baumgartel, Madeleine Bernstorff, Timothy Scott Brown, Michael Dobstadt, Sean Eedy, Thomas Elsaesser, Ian Fleishman, Christina Gerhardt, Lisa Haegele, Randall Halle, Priscilla Layne, Ervin Malakaj, Kalani Michell, Evelyn Preuss, Patricia Anne Simpson, Fabian Tietke, Andrew Stefan Weiner.
