    Surviving As A Form Of Life (Paperback)
    Surviving As A Form Of Life (Paperback)
    Do all individuals embrace the ideal of self-development in their lives? Frans Vosman argues that there exists a cultural group of people who prioritize something entirely different: survival. Survival entails coping with the harsh realities of daily life and the challenges it presents. Vosman advocates for the use of the concepts of “form of life” and “cultural class” in political-ethical research. “Form of life” allows us to move away from the ontological focus in care ethics, which emphasizes the interconnectedness of human beings and their inherent caregiving nature. “Cultural class” helps to challenge hegemonic ideals. Survival, as a phenomenon, is so pervasive that we often fail to recognize it as a way of life. Our fixation on ideals blinds us to this reality. In this lecture, Vosman skillfully sheds light on this reality, offering intellectual clarity and deep empathy for those living under conditions of survival. Frans Vosman (1952-2020) was a Professor of Care Ethics at the

    Reisgids Culture Smart! Myanmar - Burma - Birma - | Kuperard
    De Cultuur Bewust!-gids geeft toeristen en zakenlieden belangrijke informatie met betrekking tot de cultuur van alledag in het land van bestemming. Anders dan in de gebruikelijke reisgidsen wordt de lezer in deze reeks bijgespijkerd op het gebied van omgangsvormen, normen en waarden, hoe zich te gedragen en wat verwacht mag worden op zakelijk en sociaal gebied. Het zijn beknopte zakformaatgidsen met interessante wetenswaardigheden over het dagelijks leven. Een must voor iedereen die naar het buitenland gaat voor vakantie, studie of werk. Myanmar, as Burma is now known, is strategically situated between the world's two most populous nations--China and India--and its distinctive ancient culture shares some traditions with both countries. Hidden away from the eyes of the world for half a century by its military rulers' policy of self-isolation, "the Burmese Way to Socialism," with a new democratic parliament and civilian government Myanmar is undergoing important changes as it approaches…

    Fotoboek Silence of the Tides - Waddengebied | Lannoo
    Fotoboek Silence of the Tides - Waddengebied | Lannoo
    Silence of the Tides is een boek over de gelijknamige poëtische film van regisseur Pieter-Rim de Kroon waarin de continue 'ademhaling' van het Waddengebied centraal staat. Een film over de kwetsbare relatie tussen mens en natuur. Over getijden, cycli en contrasten. Tegen een decor van mist, wind, water, het constant veranderend licht en de altijd aanwezige horizon.   Dit boek laat zich als een film bekijken en neemt je mee naar de magische wereld van het internationale Waddengebied dat zich uitstrekt over Nederland, Duitsland en Denemarken. Het unieke natuurgebied is een van de laatst overgebleven grootschalige, bij eb droogvallende, ecosystemen en prijkt sinds juni 2009 op de werelderfgoedlijst van Unesco.   De lengte van de film is 102 minuten. Dat betekent dat er in de film in totaal 146.880 beeldjes (frames) zitten. De hogeresolutieframes in het boek zijn door regisseur De Kroon persoonlijk geselecteerd waarmee het begrip director's cut er een bijzondere dimensie bij krijgt. - Hig…

    Reisgids Somaliland | Bradt Travel Guides
    Voor vele landen net zo goed, zo niet beter dan de Planet. Beduidend soberder uitgevoerd, maar ook met veel informatie voor backpackers en met veel kaartmateriaal. Een aanrader!   There is a reason no other publisher produces a guide to Somaliland: it is not an easy book to produce. The research is extremely challenging, the production is expensive and, because Somaliland is such a niche travel destination, the sales potential is very limited. Unfortunately, the first edition of this book did not recoup its costs. We were left with a difficult decision: increase the retail price to make a second edition possible or admit defeat and allow the guide to go out of print. We don’t like to admit defeat.   This second edition is significantly more expensive than the first edition, but we sincerely hope you’ll understand why that is the case, and feel that the revised price still represents excellent value for such vital and unique information. We are committed to providing high quality tr…

    Productomschrijving

    Spanning fifteen years of artistic practice, this monograph derives its title from a 1913 avant-garde Cubo-Futurist opera celebrating the demise of the sun. It confronts us with the speculative state of reality after the end of the world, a barren ontological wasteland in which artifacts have lost their utility. In his work, Xavier Mary is concerned with the dreams and nightmares of modernity, resulting from its inherently industrial nature. The sense of an impending apocalypse or total destruction seems particularly topical for the current times. Where the Promethean nature of technology typically allowed humans to liberate themselves from the whims of nature (such as the limited availability of sunlight), this gift for self-preservation has now given way to the threat of self-annihilation. And yet, in the zero point of the apocalypse, an ontological truth is revealed: everything suddenly manifests itself in its inexorable materiality, a ghostly cosmos of autonomous objects. In
