October 1989Theorien und Dinge
by Willard Van Orman Quine, Joachim Schulte
Quine vermag uns zu überraschen. Nicht nur, weil er die sonst vielfach trocken wirkenden Probleme von Sprachphilosophie und philosophischer Logik mit anschaulichen Formulierungen, treffenden Beispielen und verblüffenden Bildern lebendig zu machen versteht, sondern weil er überdies imstande ist, längst gesichert und abgetan geglaubten Themen neue Fragen und vor allem unvorhergesehene Antworten abzugewinnen. Neben Erörterungen technischlogischer Begründungsfragen, bei denen Quines mustergültige Klarheit und sein Verzicht auf einschüchterndes Brimborium erfrischend zu unvermuteten Einsichten verhelfen, finden sich in diesen Abhandlungen Auseinandersetzungen mit der Geschichte der Philosophie, namentlich des Empirismus, sowie kritische Darstellungen der Gedankenwelt Russells, Austins, Smarts, Goodmans, Gödels und Lewis Carrolls. Gleichsam nebenbei, doch nie als Nebensache, werden prinzipielle Probleme behandelt, etwa die Kontextabhängigkeit philosophischer Fragestellungen, und es werden ausgefallene Aspekte allgemeiner Begriffe deutlich gemacht, etwa die Rolle von Metaphern bei der Entwicklung wissenschaftlich fruchtbarer Ideen.

The ArtsFebruary 2015Networks of sound, style and subversion
The punk and post–punk worlds of Manchester, London, Liverpool and Sheffield, 1975–80
by Nick Crossley, Peter Martin
This book examines the birth of punk in the UK and its transformation, within a short period of time, into post-punk. Deploying innovative concepts of 'critical mass', 'social networks' and 'music worlds', and using sophisticated techniques of 'social network analysis', it teases out the events and mechanisms involved in punk's 'micro-mobilisation', its diffusion across the UK and its transformation in certain city-based strongholds into a variety of interlocking post-punk forms. Nick Crossley offers a detailed review of prior work in this area, a rich exploration of new empirical data and a highly innovative and robust approach to the study of 'music worlds'. Written in an accessible style, this book is essential reading for anybody with an interest in either UK punk and post-punk or the impact of social networks on cultural life and the potential of social network analysis to explore this impact. ;

September 2006Buch der Dinge
Gedichte
by Aleš Šteger, Urška P. Cerne, Matthias Göritz, Matthias Göritz
»Nicht für jedes Ding gibt es ein Wort«, vermeldet das Große Wörterbuch der slowenischen Sprache. Aleš Šteger, als Reisender in vielen Sprachen und Ländern zu Hause, Autor mehrerer Gedichtbände und einer Reiseprosa über Peru und César Vallejo, stellt diese Einsicht seinem neuen Lyrikband als Motto voran. Doch es fehlt nicht nur an Worten. Wie seine streng gebauten, leichtfüßigen Texte, 50 Gedichte, zeigen, haben wir schon das Selbstverständliche nie richtig kennengelernt: Büroklammer, Seife, Zahnstocher (»dieser kleine Robespierre im Maul des Polyphem «), Regenschirm, Hut und Fußmatte. In Štegers Gedichten werden sie aufgerufen und treten uns, dem Allgemeinbegriff entschlüpft, entgegen; sie stellen Fragen, die zu groß sind für so kleine Dinge. Unklare, sich verwandelnde Seinsformen wie Ei, Wurst und Schokolade machen stutzig. Das Brot offenbart seinen sadomasochistischen Charakter: »Ja, ja, es liebt dich, deshalb nimmt es jetzt dein Messer in sich auf. / Es weiß, daß sich all seine Wunden in deiner Hand verkrümeln. « – Nicht zur Benennung der Dinge fehlen uns die Worte, sondern für die Antworten, die wir ihnen schuldig sind.
