Good And Evil

Two great novelists, Franz Kafka and Robert Louis Stevenson at first blush seem to have absolutely nothing in common. But a detailed analysis of two distinguished works of thewriters, reveals surprising similarities in some aspects of their storylines. In particular, comparison of Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde with The Metamorphosis of Kafka shows that both works depict the issues of the struggle between Good and Evil through elements of metamorphoses that have common roots and motives. Focusing on the ideas that are implied rather than explicitly stated unveils deep correlation between these two seemingly unrelated novels

Good And Evil

This chapter shows that Nietzsche’s model of the will is largely indebted to that worked out by the late 19th-century French psychologist Théodule Ribot. Both Nietzsche and Ribot see the will as resulting from the hierarchical coordination of affective states and behavioural inclinations. The chapter also includes a detailed interpretation of aphorism 19 of Beyond Good and Evil (where Nietzsche puts forward his most detailed analysis of volition) and of other late passages, arguing that he sees the act of willing as determined by command-obedience relations among the drives and that he views volitional phenomenology as a partially illusory accompanying phenomenon.

Kodėl ir kaip Friedrichas Nietzsche ir Ludwigas Wittgensteinas inspiravo Stanley Cavello ir Gilles’io Deleuze’o kino filosofijos tapsmą? Kuo artimos ir kuo skiriasi šios dvi kino filosofijos kryptys? Kuo skiriasi paties kinematografo sukurti Nietzsche’s ir Wittgensteino įvaizdžiai? Kodėl kinematografas išskirtinai domisi šiomis dviem filosofinėmis figūromis? Kadangi tarp pirmųjų dviejų klausimų ir paskutinių nėra aiškaus loginio ar priežastinio susietumo, tyrimą vadinsime kinematografinėmis paraštėmis.Pagrindiniai žodžiai: kino filosofija, Nietzsche, Wittgensteinas, Stanley Cavellas, Gilles’is Deleuze’as, Liliana Cavani, Derekas Jarmanas.NIETZSCHE AND WITTGENSTEIN: CINEMATIC MARGINSJūratė BaranovaSummaryThe article consists of two logically independent parts. The first one deals with the influence of Wittgenstein and Nietzsche on the philosophy of cinema of Stanley Cavell and Gilles Deleuze, presupposing that the first one was more influenced by the former and the other one by the latter. The article also expresses some attempts to compare the two philosophies of cinema. The author discerns one common aspect: in opposition to the analytical and phenomenological trend, they both do not question the nature of cinematic experience and the intentionalism / nonintentionalism dilemma. On the other hand, they expose two different attitudes towards the meeting of thought and emotion in cinema practice. A detailed analysis of the integration of Nietszchean ideas in Deleuze’s philosophy of cinema reveals several possibilities for philosophy and cinema to meet. Firstly, the interpreter is able to use philosophical concepts for the experimental explanation of cinema; secondly, one can see cinema and philosophy as one problemic tisssue; thirdly, it is possible to consider (reasonably or not) some philosophical insights as an intention of the cinema director. The other part of the article is devoted to the image of Nietszche and Wittgesntein in the art of cinema, created by Liliana Cavani and Derek Jarman. The analysis shows that not all movies about philosophers have something to do with philosophy itself. The author discusses the four movies created by Cavani (The Night Porter (1974), Beyond Good and Evil (1977), The Berlin Affair (1983), Francesco (1989)), and concludes that one cannot discern any philosophical aspect in the movie Beyond Good and Evil on Nietzsche’s biography. On the other hand, it doesnot mean that biographical movies have nothing to do with philosophy. Derek Jarman’s movie Wittgesntein (1993) demonstrates the possibility of a creative integration of philosophical thinking into the tissue of the experimental cinema.Keywords: philosophy of cinema, Nietzsche, Wittgenstein, Stanley Cavell, Gilles Deleuze, Liliana Cavani, Derek Jarman.

Jerzy Ficowski’s biblical fragments The article is a general and panoramic attempt at defining the basic forms of the presence of Bible in Jerzy Ficowski’s poetry. It was estblished that biblical themes are not central elements of the poetic world of the author of Inicjał. Nevertheless, they are constantly present throughout his works. The poet most often refers to the Old Testament. In particular, Ficowski is almost obsessively focused on the motif of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and original sin. The theme is present in a number of poems written during the period of a couple decades. Those poems are the subject of a more detailed analysis and interpretation of the present article.Key words: Jerzy Ficowski; contemporary Polish poetry; biblical inspirations in literature;

Unconscious Desire

This chapter offers a detailed analysis of Lars von Trier's Antichrist (2009). In some respects, Antichrist is a deceptive title, implying a simple reversal of the Christian opposition between good and evil, yet the film should, in part, be understood in a context more complicated than that of Christianity, or even New Age pseudo-paganism. It occupies a unique territory, somewhere between horror film and psychodrama, where themes such as misogyny, maternal ambivalence, madness, and lust permeate a ruptured dreamscape with a sustained and unique oddness. Hence, the world of the film is, in a sense, gothic and fantastic; a mode particularly suited for expressing a heady mix of ‘unconscious desire, repressed energies and antisocial fantasies’. The gothic space is also a sight of seduction, sexual transgression, cruelty, humiliation, and death; themes that are all reworked and recombined in Antichrist's dramatic atmosphere. Ultimately, what makes Antichrist stick with audiences is the potent undertow, the sense of loss, guilt, and despair that pervades the locations and plasters itself across the mother's grieving face.

The great European novelist and short-story writer, Franz Kafka, and one of the most famous eastern poets of Middle ages, Alisher Navoiy, at first blush seem to have absolutely nothing in common. But a detailed analysis of two distinguished works of the writers, reveals their surprisingly similar views in regard to interpretation of love and devotion concepts. Step-by-step comparison of one of the Mir Alisher Navoiy’s ghazals with The Metamorphosis of Kafka allows to correlate the messages of each masterpiece, and thus define the similarities in personal traits of each author

Abstract Purpose: This article discusses impaired prosody production subsequent to traumatic brain injury (TBI). Prosody may affect naturalness and intelligibility of speech significantly, often for the long term, and TBI may result in a variety of impairments. Method: Intonation, rate, and stress production are discussed in terms of the perceptual, physiological, and acoustic characteristics associated with TBI. Results and Conclusions: All aspects of prosodic production are susceptible to the effects of damage resulting from TBI. There are commonly associated prosodic impairments; however, individual variations in specific aspects of prosody require detailed analysis.
