 | | Aesthetics and Its Discontents(1st Edition) by Jacques Ranciere, Jacques Ranciã¨Re, Steven Corcoran Paperback, 176 Pages, Published 2009 by Polity ISBN-13: 978-0-7456-4631-2, ISBN: 0-7456-4631-X "Translated by Steven Corcoran Only yesterday aesthetics stood accused of concealing cultural games of social distinction. Now it is considered a parasitic discourse from which artistic practices must be freed. But aesthetics is not a discourse. It is an historical regime of the identification of art. This regime is paradoxical, because it founds the autonomy of art only at the price of suppressing the boundaries separating its practices ..." |

The rationality of fiction is that appearances are inverted. Fiction overturns the ordinary course of events that occur one after the other, aiming to show how the unexpected arises, happiness transforms into unhappiness and ignorance into knowledge. In the modern age, argues Rancière ..." |

This question by renowned French thinker Jacques Ranciere is the entry point for his earnest and careful reading of one of France s most singular and important co ..." |

In his latest book, acclaimed philosopher Jacques Rancière looks at cinematic art in comparison to its corollary forms in literature and theatre. From literature, he argues, cinema takes its narrative conventions, while at the same time effacing literature’s images and philosophy; and film rejects theatre, while also fulfilling theatre’s dream. Built on these contra ..." |

The "time after" is not the uniform and morose time of those who no longer believe in anything. It is the time when we are less interested in histories and their successes or failures than we are in the delicate fabric of time from which they are carved. It is the time of pure material eve ..." |

In this follow-up to the acclaimed The Future of the Image, Rancière takes a radically different approach to this ..." |

The expression 'politics of literature' assumes that there is a specific connection between politics as a form of collective practice and literature as a historically determined regime of the art of writing. It implies that literature intervenes in the parcel ..." |
