Phenomenological Reflections on Violence: A Skeptical Approach Dodd James
Following up on his previous book, Violence and Phenomenology, James Dodd presents here an expanded and deepened reflection on the problem of violence. Each essay tracks a discoverable, sometimes familiar figure of violence, while at the same time questioning its limits and revealing sites of its resistance to conceptualization. The book's six essays are guided by a skeptical philosophical attitude about the meaning of violence that refuses to conform to the exigencies of essence and the stable patterns of lived experience.
They draw upon a range of different authors--Sartre, Levinas, Schelling, Scheler, and Husserl--and historical moments, but without any attempt to reduce them into a series of examples elucidating a Dodd's essays are readings as much as they are reflections; attempts at interpretation as much as they are attempts to push concepts of violence to their limits.
