Zustand: Fair. : On Human Nature: A Gathering While Everything Flows reúne los últimos ensayos, reflexiones autobiográficas, una entrevista y un poema del eminente teórico literario y crítico cultural Kenneth Burke (1897-1993). Burke, autor de Language as Symbolic Action, A Grammar of Motives y Rhetoric of Motives, entre otras obras, fue un pensador innovador y original que trabajó en la intersección de la sociología, la psicología, la teoría literaria y la semiótica. Esta colección de catorce piezas representativas de sus productivos últimos años aborda muchos temas importantes que Burke abordó a lo largo de su carrera, como la logología (su intento de encontrar una teoría y metodología del lenguaje universal), la tecnología y la ecología. Los ensayos también elaboran las nociones de Burke sobre la creatividad y su relación con el estrés, el lenguaje y sus usos literarios, la relación entre la mente y el cuerpo, y más. Provocativo, idiosincrásico y erudito, On Human Nature hace una declaración significativa sobre la lingüística cultural y es una importante culminación del corpus burkeano.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In August, 1959, an anxious William Rueckert wrote Kenneth Burke to ask, 'When on earth is that perpetually 'forthcoming' A Symbolic of Motives forthcoming Will it be soon enough so that I can wait for it before I complete my book [Kenneth Burke and the Drama of Human Relations] If the Symbolic is not forthcoming soon, would it be too much trouble for you to send me a list of exactly what will be included in the book, and some idea of the structure of the book ' Burke replied, 'Holla! If you're uncomfortable, think how uncomfortable I am. But I'll do the best I can. . . .' In the course of their long correspondence, the nature of the Symbolic-Burke's much-anticipated third volume in his Motivorum trilogy-vexed both men, and they discussed its contents often. Ultimately, Burke left the job of pulling it all together to Rueckert.Forty-eight years after they first discussed the Symbolic, Rueckert has fulfilled his end of the bargain with this book, Essays Toward a Symbolic of Motives, 1950-1955.ESSAYS TOWARD A SYMBOLIC OF MOTIVES, 1950 -1955 contains the work Burke planned to include in the third book in his Motivorum trilogy, which began with A Grammar of Motives (1945) and A Rhetoric of Motives (1950). In these essays-some of which appear here in print for the first time-Burke offers his most precise and elaborated account of his dramatistic poetics, providing readers with representative analyses of such writers as Aeschylus, Goethe, Hawthorne, Roethke, Shakespeare, and Whitman. Following Rueckert's Introduction, Burke lays out his approach in essays that theorize and illustrate the method, which he considered essential for understanding language as symbolic action and human relations generally. Burke concludes with a focused account of humans as symbol-using and misusing animals and then offers his tour de force reading of Goethe's Faust.About the AuthorKENNETH BURKE (1897-1993) is the author of many books, including the landmark predecessors in the Motivorum trilogy: A Grammar of Motives (1945) and A Rhetoric of Motives (1950). He has been hailed as one of the most original thinkers of the twentieth century and possibly the greatest rhetorician since Cicero. Paul Jay refers to him as 'the most theoretically challenging, unorthodox, and sophisticated of twentieth-century speculators on literature and culture.' Geoffrey Hartman praises him as 'the wild man of American criticism.' According to Scott McLemee, Burke may have 'accidentally create[d] cultural studies.'About the EditorWilliam H. Rueckert, the 'Dean of Burke Studies,' has authored or edited numerous groundbreaking books and articles on Kenneth Burke, including the landmark study, Kenneth Burke and the Drama of Human Relations (1963, 1982). His correspondence with Burke was collected in Letters from Kenneth Burke to William H. Rueckert, 1959-1987 (Parlor, 2003). His most recent book is Faulkner From Within-Destructive and Generative Being in the Novels of William Faulkner (Parlor, 2004).…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - On Human Nature: A Gathering While Everything Flows brings together the late essays, autobiographical reflections, an interview, and a poem by the eminent literary theorist and cultural critic Kenneth Burke (1897-1993). Burke, author of Language as Symbolic Action, A Grammar of Motives, and Rhetoric of Motives, among other works, was an innovative and original thinker who worked at the intersection of sociology, psychology, literary theory, and semiotics. This book, a selection of fourteen representative pieces of his productive later years, addresses many important themes Burke tackled throughout his career such as logology (his attempt to find a universal language theory and methodology), technology, and ecology. The essays also elaborate Burke's notions about creativity and its relation to stress, language and its literary uses, the relation of mind and body, and more. Provocative, idiosyncratic, and erudite, On Human Nature makes a significant statement about cultural linguistics and is an important rounding-out of the Burkean corpus.…
