This edited volume offers a comprehensive view of various possible phenomenological approaches of the experience of love, ranging from classical historical perspectives up to contemporary and critical viewpoints. It explores both the crucial importance of the question of love for the history of phenomenology as well as the rich potential of phenomenology for a deeper insight in the experience of love and its various dimensions, such as its affective, relational, but also ethical and religious aspects.

Reform, Politics and the Paradoxes of the Avant-Garde
Author:
Tracing the evolution of the German applied arts movement from 1890 through the interwar period, Artists and Radicalism in Germany, 1890-1933 reveals how reforms in artistic and vocational education intersected with the professional politics of radical artists and the nature of intellectual labour. Challenging conventional views, Pegioudis reinterprets the conflict between modern art's advocates and opponents, arguing that professional politics—not merely political ideologies—shaped the historical avant-garde. Developing a fresh perspective on the role of radicalism and avant-garde labour in the history of modern art, this book casts new light on German modern art and its interpreters.

International Research in Hermeneutics and Phenomenology is a series of publications that discloses the interpretive nature of understanding as the mode of being a human being in the world. By contrast with the prevailing compartmentalization, specialization, acquisition, and distribution of knowledge in academia and society, hermeneutics empowers us to interpret the totality of dwelling in the world. Deciphering what needs to be understood, instead of merely setting out the conditions and following rules of interpretation, reveals the indispensability of hermeneutics and phenomenology, as well as the significance of thinking and living as the comm-unity within challenging contexts. The contributors to the series are seriously engaged in critical and constructive conversation between different academic disciplines, predominantly, philosophy, theology, education, literature, law, medicine, and architecture. The interpretive nature of understanding requires the hermeneutic ear to hear the polyphony of voices that expresses lingual mode of being in the world. Since the “language speaks” (die Sprache spricht), our task is to listen to this voice and respond to it. The productive tension between listening and responding calls for an understanding of being a human being as existentia hermeneutica, i.e., existentia interpretativa. As such, our life is a hermeneutic practice of un-covering (ἀ-λήθεια, Ver-bergung/Ent-bergung) the reality we live in. Thus, by doing hermeneutics, we hope to contribute to the wellbeing of individuals, societies, and the world as caring stewards called to authentic life, commitment, and responsibility.
Emblematics and the Brazilian Avant-Garde (1920-30s)
Series:
Avant-Garde Critical Studies
Author:
In Antropofagia, Aarnoud Rommens shows how this Brazilian avant-garde movement (1920-30s) deconstructed early tendencies in the European vanguard. Through imaginative re-readings, the author reinterprets Antropofagia’s central texts and images as elements within an ever-changing, neo-baroque memory palace. Not only does the movement subvert established conceptions of the pre- and postcolonial; it is also a counter-colonial critique of verbal and visual literacy. To do justice to the dynamic between visibility and legibility, Rommens develops the inventive methodology of ‘emblematics’. The book’s implications are wide-ranging, prompting a revaluation of the avant-garde as a transmedial tactic for disrupting our reading and viewing habits.

Author:
A Heretical History of Architecture challenges the conventional understanding of significant developments in Western architecture as a series of alignments among dominant ideologies and artistic programs, arguing instead that the most consequential changes in the evolution of artistic and design practices across Europe between the fifth and seventeenth centuries were motivated by tensions between local religious or cultural traditions and centralized power.
This groundbreaking study richly demonstrates the processes through which heterodox beliefs that persisted within numerous diverse communities resulted in design experimentation so syncretic that it has heretofore eluded scholars employing conventional Euro-centric taxonomies of architectural styles.

Traumatische Zeiterfahrung in H. G. Adlers Roman Eine Reise
Author:
This book examines the interrelationships between trauma, time, and narrative in the novel The Journey (1962) by the scholar, novelist, poet, and Holocaust survivor H. G. Adler. Drawing on Paul Ricœur’s philosophy of time and studies of time in literature, Julia Menzel analyzes how Adler’s novel depicts the experience of time as a dimension of Holocaust victims’ trauma. She explores the aesthetic temporality of The Journey and presents a new interpretation of the literary text, which she conceives of as a modern “Zeit-Roman” (time novel).
Die Studie untersucht die Wechselbeziehungen zwischen Trauma, Zeit und Erzählung in dem Roman Eine Reise (1962) des Wissenschaftlers, Schriftstellers, Dichters und Holocaust-Überlebenden H. G. Adler. Unter Bezugnahme auf Paul Ricœurs Zeitphilosophie und die literaturwissenschaftliche Zeitforschung analysiert Julia Menzel, wie Adlers Roman traumatische Zeiterfahrungen der Opfer des Holocaust zur Darstellung bringt. Sie erkundet die ästhetische Eigenzeit von Eine Reise und eröffnet eine neue Lesart des literarischen Texts, den sie als modernen Zeit-Roman begreift.
