| Sumario: | "Although philosophy today has abandoned its former fascination with transcendent invisibles, it has largely left unexamined the historical articulations of the divide between 'the visible' and 'the invisible.' Vision's Invisibles argues that such a self examination is necessary for the sensitization of philosophical sight, as well as for engagements with visuality in other domains. To this end, it investigates a range of challenging understanding of visuality in its relation to invisibles, as articulated in the texts of key historical thinkers - Heraclitus, Plato, and Descartes - and of twentieth-century philosophers, including Foucault, Merleau-Ponty, Nancy, Derrida, and Heidegger."--Jacket. |
