_Five Faces of Modernity_ is a series of semantic and cultural biographies of words that have taken on special significance in the last century and a half or so: _modernity_, _avant-garde_, _decadence_, _kitsch_, and _postmodernism_. The concept of modernity—the notion that we, the living, are different and somehow superior to our predecessors and that our civilization is likely to be succeeded by one even superior to ours—is a relatively recent Western invention and one whose time may already have passed, if (...) we believe its postmodern challengers. Calinescu documents the rise of cultural modernity and, in tracing the shifting senses of the five terms under scrutiny, illustrates the intricate value judgments, conflicting orientations, and intellectual paradoxes to which it has given rise. _Five Faces of Modernity_ attempts to do for the foundations of the modernist critical lexicon what earlier terminological studies have done for such complex categories as _classicism_, _baroque_, _romanticism_, _realism_, or _symbolism_ and thereby fill a gap in literary scholarship. On another, more ambitious level, Calinescu deals at length with the larger issues, dilemmas, ideological tensions, and perplexities brought about by the assertion of modernity. (shrink)

La amenaza es una forma de violencia. Existe formalmente en la consciencia porque su contenido es mental, aunque siempre está acompañada de expresiones tangibles. La amenaza es una relación, generalmente forzada, donde la víctima asume un daño soportable, antes que afrontar un daño mayor, explícito y potencialmente fatal. La amenaza altera las capacidades operativas del sujeto porque es violentado internamente y, con ello, pierde su paz. La amenaza es una experiencia singular, personal e intransferible que afecta intrínsecamente la condición de (...) persona, en su vida y en sus relaciones. La ética, frente a esta realidad, tiene una doble responsabilidad: primero, recuperar para la víctima el valor de su persona; segundo, provocar en el lector una disposición ética ante la experiencia de amenaza. Cabe citar, por último, que la presente reflexión es una aproximación fenomenológica al misterio humano y un intento por acompañar empáticamente a las víctimas de la amenaza, desde ese ámbito racional que siempre resguarda posibilidades reales de trascendencia y que de múltiples maneras y contextos culturales se desvelan a cada persona en su más profunda intimidad.

On the concept of Avidyā in Indic philosophy.

Concept of ethics in Ādi-Granth, Sikh canon.

Not being satisfied with the interpretation offered by Sankara and his followers, or some other teachers the author has attempted in the following pages to present to the readers his own interpretation of the work as he has understood it. But in no way does he claim that his interpretation is the interpretation, i.e., the interpretation intended by Gaudapada himself. In the present volume the author has given a new edition of the text of the Agamasastra based on a number (...) of MSS and different editions, followed by an English translation. After this comes his annotation. At the end there are Appendixes including the text and English translation of the Mandukya Upanisad, VAriants of the MSS used for the edition of the text of the Agamasastra, and different indexes.
