Aesthetic and Artistic Dividuation Processes -- Index. 330 $aThis book offers an epistemological critique of the concept of the individual and of individuality. It argues that because of our bio(techno)logical entanglements with non-human others, billions of microorganisms and our multiple (in)voluntary participations in socio(techno)logical processes, we have to conceive of ourselves no longer as individuals, but as dividuations. This dividual character which enforces simultaneous and multidirectional participations in different spheres is also apt for other living beings, for entities such as the nation state, for single cultures, production processes and works of art. The critique of individuality in the book is also elaborated in critical re-readings of classical philosophical texts from Plato up to today; the new concept of dividuation is a modified and semantically enriched version of certain concepts of the French philosophers Gilbert Simondon and Gilles Deleuze.  . 606 $aPhilosophy 606 $aEpistemology 606 $aSocial sciences?Philosophy 606 $aPhilosophy of Man$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E28000 606 $aEpistemology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E13000 606 $aSocial Philosophy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E43000 615 0$aPhilosophy. 615 0$aEpistemology. 615 0$aSocial sciences?Philosophy. 615 14$aPhilosophy of Man. 615 24$aEpistemology. 615 24$aSocial Philosophy. 676 $a302.54 700 $aOtt$b Michaela$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0974376 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300619903321 996 $aDividuations$92218301 997 $aUNINA
