Описание:
Bestiary: An Imaginary Menagerie is an art book organized within the framework of an A-Z alliterative alphabet with a preface and artist's notes.
From the Preface:
"Creating a bestiary or illustrated collection of real and imaginary animals is one of those ideas that simmered slowly for years on my imagination's back burner. Unexpectedly, it began bubbling again in November of 2015 as I came across some journal notes that sketched out the parameters of such a project.
Pausing at a drawing of a unicorn, I began to wonder about our fascination with bestiaries. These colorful hybrids of letterforms and fanciful illustrations first appeared during the medieval era as artists were commissioned by nobility and wealthy merchants to interpret their na ve descriptions of strange creatures seen on their voyages to exotic lands.
Yet, despite our greatly evolved knowledge of zoology since then, why does this timeless literary art form remain popular among the offerings of contemporary publishers? I propose that it does so because we have yet to fully understand the synthesis of our own evolving animal natures with the gifts of speech, writing and acumen.
That said, I've always loved to draw animals and have featured them in many original works of art. However, most of my animals are not portrayed realistically; I prefer to imbue them with qualities that reflect our human fortes and foibles. Those bestiary illustrations in which the animals display such attributes were important inspirations for this book. They can be found in The Aberdeen Bestiary (1200 AD), The Northumberland Bestiary (1250-1260 AD) and The Tudor Bestiary (1520 AD). Among my favorite 20th century editions are: Jungle-Jangle by Peter Newell (1909) and The Bestiario Moderno made in 1968 by Domenico Gnoli.
In designing BESTIARY: AN IMAGINARY MENAGERIE, I've framed each illustration with an alphabetical alliteration both for organizational purposes and simply because it was great fun to do My hope is that my efforts will complement the voluminous body of bestiaries throughout history that are tributes to the wonders of creation and to our human imagination...

In The Problem with Work, Kathi Weeks boldly challenges the presupposition that work, or waged labor, is inherently a social and political good. While progressive political movements, including the Marxist and feminist movements, have fought for equal pay, better work conditions, and the recognition of unpaid work as a valued form of labor, even they have tended to accept work as a naturalized or inevitable activity. Weeks argues that in taking work as a given, we have “depoliticized” it, or removed it from the realm of political critique. Employment is now largely privatized, and work-based activism in the United States has atrophied. We have accepted waged work as the primary mechanism for income distribution, as an ethical obligation, and as a means of defining ourselves and others as social and political subjects. Taking up Marxist and feminist critiques, Weeks proposes a postwork society that would allow people to be productive and creative rather than relentlessly bound to the employment relation. Work, she contends, is a legitimate, even crucial, subject for political theory.

Описание:
How has the concept of productive imagination been developed in post-Kantian philosophy? This important and innovative volume explores this question, with particular focus on hermeneutics, phenomenology and neo-Kantianism. The essays in this collection demonstrate that imagination is productive not only because it fabricates non-existent objects, but also because it shapes human experience and co-determines the meaning of the experienced world. The authors show how imagination forms experience at the kinaesthetic, pre-linguistic, poetic, historical, artistic, social and political levels. The volume offers both a thematic and a historical overview of productive imagination understood as Kant originally wanted us to understand it.
