(Translator)Description:Now In Paperback, Jean-Luc Marion's Groundbreaking Philosophy Of Human Uncertainty In Negative Certainties, Renowned Philosopher Jean-Luc Marion Challenges Some Of The Most Fundamental Assumptions We Have Developed About Knowledge: That It Is Categorical, Predicative, And Positive Following Descartes, Kant, And Heidegger, He Looks Toward Our Finitude And The Limits Of Our Reason He Asks An Astonishingly Simple--But Profoundly Provocative--Question In Order To Open Up An Entirely New Way Of Thinking About Knowledge: Isn't Our Uncertainty, Our Finitude, And Rational Limitations, One Of The Few Things We Can Be Certain About? Marion Shows How The Assumption Of Knowledge As Positive Demands A Reductive Epistemology That Disregards Immeasurable Or Disorderly Phenomena He Shows That We Have Experiences Every Day That Have No Identifiable Causes Or Predictable Reasons And That These Constitute A Very Real Knowledge--A Knowledge Of The Limits Of What Can Be Known Establishing This Negative Certainty, Marion Applies It To Four Aporias, Or Issues Of Certain Uncertainty: The Definition Of Man; The Nature Of God; The Unconditionality Of The Gift; And The Unpredictability Of Events Translated For The First Time Into English, Negative Certainties Is An Invigorating Work Of Epistemological Inquiry That Will Take A Central Place In Marion's Oeuvre Binding:Paperback, PaperbackPublisher:University of Chicago PressPublication Date:2023-12-20Weight:Dimensions:1'' H x 9'' L x 6'' WNumber of Pages:288Language:English
