Plato and Aristotle in Harmony? – Some Conclusions --Bibliography --IndicesForms and Concepts is the first comprehensive study of the central role of concepts and concept acquisition in the Platonic tradition. It sets up a stimulating dialogue between Plato’s innatist approach and Aristotle’s much more empirical response. The primary aim is to analyze and assess the strategies with which Platonists responded to Aristotle’s (and Alexander of Aphrodisias’) rival theory. The monograph culminates in a careful reconstruction of the elaborate attempt undertaken by the Neoplatonist Proclus (6th century AD) to devise a systematic Platonic theory of concept acquisition.Commentaria in Aristotelem Graeca et ByzantinaConceptsHistoryForm (Philosophy)HistoryPlatonistsElectronic books.ConceptsHistory.Form (Philosophy)History.Platonists.121/.4Helmig Christoph1026783MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463336803321Forms and concepts2441886UNINA04426nam 22008294 450 991077893470332120231006191643.01-283-44006-797866134400680-230-35845-410.1057/9780230358454(CKB)2550000000084112(EBL)851060(OCoLC)774695941(SSID)ssj0000599542(PQKBManifestationID)11410678(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000599542(PQKBWorkID)10596306(PQKB)10482272(DE-He213)978-0-230-35845-4(MiAaPQ)EBC851060(EXLCZ)99255000000008411220151116d2012 u| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierMetaphor and Diaspora in Contemporary Writing /edited by Jonathan P.A.

Sell -- Tropes of diasporic life in the work of Nadeem Aslam / Chris Weedon -- Becoming foreign : tropes of migrant identity in three novels by Abdulrazak Gurnah / Felicity Hand -- 'My split self and my split world' : troping identity in Mohsin Hamid's fiction / Adriano Elia -- 'Beige outlaws' : Hanif Kureishi, miscegenation and diasporic experience / Ruth Maxey -- Metaphors of belonging in Andrea Levy's Small Island / Sofía Muñóz-Valdivieso -- Ancestry, uncertainty and dislocation in V.S. Naipaul's Half a Life / Enrique Galván Álvarez -- Jewish/postcolonial diasporas in the work of Caryl Phillips / Stef Craps -- Metaphors of the secular in the fiction of Salman Rushdie / Stephen Morton -- White Teeth's embodied metaphors : the moribund and the living / Isabel Carrera Suárez -- Orpheus in the Alpujarras : metaphors of arrival in Chris Stewart's Driving Over Lemons / Jonathan P.A. Sell.Choose ten major contemporary diasporic writers (from Abdulrazak to Zadie), ask ten leading authorities to write about their use of metaphor, and this is the result: a timely reassertion of metaphor's unrivalled capacity to encompass sameness and difference and create understanding and empathy across boundaries of nationality, race and ethnicity.LiteratureLiterature—PhilosophyCulture—Study and teachingLiterature, Modern—20th centuryOriental literatureBritish literaturePostcolonial/World Literaturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/838000Literary Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/812000Cultural Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411130Twentieth-Century Literaturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/822000Asian Literaturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/831000British and Irish Literaturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/833000e-kirjatslm/finLiterature.Literature—Philosophy.Culture—Study and teaching.Literature, Modern—20th century.Oriental literature.British literature.Postcolonial/World Literature.Literary Theory.Cultural Theory.Twentieth-Century Literature.Asian Literature.British and Irish Literature.809.93355809/.93355823.9209LIT008000LIT004120LIT004220bisacshSell Jonathan P.A.edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtFI-TBOOK9910778934703321Metaphor and Diaspora in Contemporary Writing3808411UNINA
