pp. 159-177

Resumen: En el presente artículo se discuten los alcances de la construcción de sentido, la deconstrucción en las fronteras de la Filosofía, así como las consecuencias estéticas y políticas de la noción de espectro, propuesta por Jacques Derrida en su libro de 1995 Espectrosde Marx. La crítica que la introducción de la noción de espectro hace posible es tanto epistemológica como histórico-política. A continuación se analizan pasajes de ―Noticias de la Antigüedad Ideológica –Marx/Esenstein/El Capital‖ un desmesurado film deAlexander Kluge, de 2008, de más de 9 horas de duración y que gira en torno del proyecto irrealizado de Sergei Eisenstein de filmar ―El Capital‖, de Karl Marx, no como un documental, sino como un relato construido con técnicas de flujo de conciencia tomadas del ―Ulises‖ de Joyce. Palabras clave: espectro, capital, marxismo, desconstrucción, performatividad, trabajo de duelo, micropolítica. Jacques Derrida: Spectros de Marx. Beyond 'The Capital' and the End of History Abstract:This article discusses the scope of the construction of meaning and the aesthetic and political consequences of the notion of spectrum, proposed by Jacques Derrida in his 1995 book Spectra by Marx. The criticism that the introduction of the notion of spectrum makes possible is both epistemological and historical-political. Below are analyzed passages from "News of the Ideological Antiquity -Marx / Esenstein / Capital", a disproportionate film by Alexander Kluge, from 2008, of more than 9 hours and which revolves around Sergei Eisenstein's unrealized project of filming "The Capital", by Karl Marx, not as a documentary, but as a story constructed with techniques of consciousness flow taken from Joyce's "Ulysses". Keywords: spectrum, capital, Marxism, deconstruction, performativity, bereavement work, micropolitics.

Resumen Cuando se empezaron a conocer los testimonios de los supervivientes de los campos de exterminio nazis, la humanidad se consternó. El sufrimiento provocado y la aplicación sistemática y consciente de la técnica a la destrucción de la persona, fueron descubrimientos que pusieron en alerta al hombre sobre la naturaleza del hombre mismo.   Tanto fue el horror que se alcanzó a entrever a través de las narraciones que el  tiempo  se  congeló.  El  reclamo  silencioso  de  las  auténticas  ví­ctimas, quienes murieron, se suspendió en el aire de la memoria hasta que los responsables reconocieran sus culpas. El olvido no podí­a abrazar tan profundos crí­menes.   Por este motivo no puede realizarse el fin de la historia. Los sufrimientos del hombre provocados hasta este grado por el mismo hombre fuerzan un pendiente que ya no puede borrarse. El grito de dolor recuerda a las generaciones futuras la necesidad de una reparación, del perdón, del reconocimiento.   Palabras Clave: Testimonio, memoria, campos de exterminio, fenomenologí­a, hermenéutica, sufrimiento, herencia.   Abstract When testimony from the survivors from Nazi extermination fields were first known, the human race filled with dismay. The suffering provoked and the systematic conscious application of the technique of destruction of the individual, were discoveries that alerted the individual on the nature of the individual itself.   Such a horror was seen through the narrations that time froze.     The silent demand from the authentic victims, who died, was suspended on the air of memory until the responsible recognized their  guilt. Obscurity could not hold such deep crimes.   For this reason the end of history cannot be made. The suffering of the individual provoked up to this point by the individual itself, force an unresolved point that cannot be erased.   The scream of pain reminds the future generations the need to repair, forgive and recognize it.   Key words: Testimony, memory, extermination fields, phenomenology, hermeneutics, suffering, inheritance.

The aim of this paper is to question the significance of Derrida's deconstruction of the concepts of subject and history. While ‘postmodernity’ tends to be characterized by philosophical critique as the ‘liquidation of the subject’ or the ‘end of history’, I attempt to show that Derrida's deconstruction of ‘subjectivity’ and ‘historicity’ is not an elimination or destruction of these concepts, but an attempt to transform them in order to free them from their metaphysical-teleological presuppositions. This paper argues that this transformation, which begins in Derrida's and continues in Stiegler's texts, leads to the notions of ‘psycho-social individuation’ and ‘doubly epokhal redoubling’. I maintain that such notions ‘supplement’ the metaphysical concepts of subject and history by forcing a reconsideration of the technical conditions of psychic individuation and the technological conditions of ‘epochality’.

Abstract Are historic sites and house museums destined to go the way of Oldsmobiles and floppy disks?? Visitation has trended downwards for thirty years. Theories abound, but no one really knows why. To launch a discussion of the problem in the pages of The Public Historian, Cary Carson cautions against the pessimistic view that the past is simply passéé. Instead he offers a ““Plan B”” that takes account of the new way that learners today organize information to make history meaningful.

The introduction sets this study in the context of the three recent critical approaches it combines: (1) “metacritical” studies of biblical criticism that identify and critically analyze the “historically effected consciousness” that inspired a particular approach to biblical interpretation; (2) “biographies” of texts that examine their origins and effects; and (3) “end- of” books, which, following the lead of Fukuyama’s “The End of History?” (1989), argue, among other things, that old concepts may fade away as perceptions change. The role of genre methodology in perpetuating the Wisdom Literature category and now in challenging it is introduced. Finally, terminological distinctions are made between the Wisdom Literature category and Wisdom as a genre, the Wisdom Schools associated with it, and wisdom as a concept.
