David B. Allison

    David B. Allison richt zich op de kunst van levende geschiedenisinterpretatie en creëert boeiende ervaringen voor bezoekers van historische locaties. Zijn werk duikt in hoe het verleden effectief tot leven kan worden gebracht door middel van kostuuminterpretatie en reenactment, waardoor de kloof tussen historische gebeurtenissen en hedendaags publiek wordt overbrugd. Allison onderzoekt hoe gemeenschapsleiders gevoelige kwesties rond monumenten en gedenktekens kunnen aanpakken en biedt praktische begeleiding voor publieke betrokkenheid bij deze discussies. Zijn aanpak benadrukt het belang van context en onderdompeling bij het vormgeven van ons begrip van geschiedenis.

      In this long awaited volume, David B. Allison argues for a generous approach to Nietzsche`s writings and provides comprehensive analyses of Nietzsche`s The Birth of Tragedy, The Gay Science, Thus Spoke Zarathustra, and On the Genealogy of Morals. Unique among other books on Nietzsche, Allison`s text includes individual chapters devoted to Nietzsche`s principal works. Historically oriented and continentally informed, Allison`s readings draw on French and German thinkers such as Heidegger, Bataille, Derrida, Birault, and Deleuze, while explicitly resisting the use of jargon that frequently characterizes those approaches. Reading the New Nietzsche is an outstanding resource for those reading Nietzsche for the first time as well as for those who wish to know him better. Contents Preface, Introduction, 1. The birth of tragedy, 2. The gay science, 3. Thus spoke zarathustra, 4. On the genealogy of morals, Notes, index.

      "The New Nietzsche "offers an important sampling of the rereadings of Friedrich Nietzche's work that have contributed greatly to the development of contemporary European philosophy. The fifteen essays, written by such eminent scholars as Derrida, Heidegger, Deleuze, Klossowski, and Blanchot, focus on the Nietzschean concepts of the Will to Power, the Overman, and the Eternal Return, discuss Nietzsche's style, and deal with the religious implications of his ideas. Taken together they provide an indispensable foil to the interpretations available in most current American writing. Contents: " Nietzsche and Metaphysical Language, " Michel Haar; " The Will to Power, " Alphonso Lingis; " Who is Nietzsches Zarathustra?" Martin Heidegger; " Active and Reactive, " Gilles Deleuze; " Nietzsche's Experience of the Eternal Return, " Pierre Klossowski; " The Limits of Experience: Nihilism, " Maurice Blanchot; " Nietzsche's Conception of Chaos, " Jean Granier; " Nomad Thought, " Gilles Deleuze; " Nietzsche: Life as Metaphor, " Eric Blondel; " The Question of Style, " Jacques Derrida; " Perspectivism and Interpretation, " Jean Granier; " Metaphor, Symbol, Metamorphosis, " Sarah Kofman; " Beatitude in Nietzsche, " Henri Birault; " Eternal Recurrence and Kingdom of God, " Thomas J.
