October Talks: Book presentation “Materialism“ by Terry Eagleton
World-renowned author, critic and theorist Terry Eagleton came to the Salzburger Kunstverein to present his latest book “Materialism,” now also available in German.
In this stimulating analysis of a fascinating school of philosophy, Terry Eagleton makes a powerful argument that materialism is at the center of today’s important scientific and cultural as well as philosophical debates. The author reveals entirely fresh ways of considering the values and beliefs of three very different materialists—Marx, Nietzsche, and Wittgenstein—drawing striking comparisons between their philosophies while reflecting on a wide array of topics, from ideology and history to language, ethics, and the aesthetic. Cogently demonstrating how it is our bodies and corporeal activity that make thought and consciousness possible, Eagleton’s book is a valuable exposition on philosophic thought that strikes to the heart of how we think about ourselves and live in the world.
Der weltbekannte Autor, Kritiker und Theoretiker Terry Eagleton kam für die Präsentation seines neuen Buches „Materialismus“ nach Salzburg.
Wie können wir die Welt erfassen und verändern? Mögliche Antworten darauf gibt der bekannte englische Denker Terry Eagleton in seinem jüngst auf Deutsch erschienenen Buch „Materialismus“. In seiner Untersuchung führt er drei bekannte Materialisten und ihre Lehren zusammen: Karl Marx, Friedrich Nietzsche und Ludwig Wittgenstein. In einem eindrucksvollen Vergleich ihrer Theorien spannt er einen weiten Bogen, von der Sprache über die Geschichte, von der Ideologie zur Ethik, bis hin zu ästhetischen und politischen Fragen. Für Eagleton sind es die „Anti-Philosophie“ und ihr bekanntester Exponent Karl Marx, die er als Ausdruck eines gelungenen materialistischen Weltbilds ansieht.
