When the Given Is Gone --Notes --Bibliography --IndexMuch recent philosophical work proposes to illuminate dilemmas of human existence with reference to the arts and culture, often to the point of submitting particular works to preconceived formulations. In this examination of three texts that respond to loss, Robert Mugerauer responds with close, detailed readings that seek to clarify the particularity of the intense force such works bring forth. Mugerauer shows how, in the face of what is irrevocably taken away as well as of what continues to be given, the unavoidable task of interpretation is ours alone. Mugerauer examines works in three different forms that powerfully call on us to respond to loss: Cormac McCarthy’s The Crossing, Daniel Libeskind’s Jewish Museum Berlin, and Wim Wenders’s film Wings of Desire. Explicating these difficult but rich works with reference to the thought of Martin Heidegger, Jean-Luc Marion, Hannah Arendt, and Emmanuel Levinas, the author helps us to experience the multiple and diverse ways in which all of us are opened to the saturated phenomena of loss, violence, witnessing, and responsibility.Perspectives in continental philosophy.Heideggerian reflections on literature, architecture, and filmArts, Modern20th centuryThemes, motivesArchitecture.Film.Heidegger.Libeskind.McCarthy.Novels.Wenders.loss.well-being.witnessing.Arts, ModernThemes, motives.700.904Mugerauer Robert1016157MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807083403321Responding to loss2376276UNINA
