Gillian Rose (1947–1995) was an influential though idiosyncratic British philosopher whose work helped introduce the Frankfurt School's critical theory and renew interest in Hegel, Kierkegaard, and Jewish thought in Anglo‐American philosophy. After years of relative oblivion, her life and thought have recently received new attention in philosophy, sociology, and theology. However, her work's critical Hegelian contribution to feminist philosophy still remains unexplored. This article seeks to reassess the place and the meaning of feminism and gender identity in Rose's work by addressing both her philosophical writings and her personal memoir, written in the months preceding her untimely death. It argues that although Rose's overall work was not developed in a feminist context, her philosophy, and in particular her ethical‐political notion of diremption, is valuable for developing a critical feminist philosophy that overcomes the binaries of law and morality, inclusion and exclusion, power and powerlessness—and focuses on the meaning of love as negotiating, rather than mediating, these oppositions.

<p>How are we to live? How do we sustain our emotional commitment to utopia? Answering these questions necessarily calls for a reconceptualisation of subjectivity and sociality, in order to overcome the depoliticisation, resignation and despair captured by the neoliberal subject. Drawing together qualitative and theoretical research under Ruth Levitas’ framework for the ‘imaginary reconstitution of society’ – Utopia as Method – I argue utopia is the otherwise that we navigate, create and learn of, together, through every moment. Where the neoliberal subject signals a collapse of subjectivity that contributes to the depoliticisation and resignation of our contemporary times, I offer an alternative account of subjectivity through Gillian Rose and Ernst Bloch. In an original theoretical encounter, I connect Rose’s concepts of reason and ‘inaugurated mourning’ with Bloch’s concepts ‘the darkness of the lived moment’ and the ‘not-yet,’ towards imagining subjectivity differently. Further, through six conversations with seven activist-philosophers from Te Whanganui-a-Tara (Wellington) – Jen Margaret, Jo Randerson, Thomas LaHood, Richard D. Bartlett, Benjamin Johnson, Cally O’Neill and Kassie Hartendorp – I make visible already-existing emancipatory practices and subjectivities from within radical Aotearoa (New Zealand,) from which we can learn and locally ground our imaginings. Combining the conversations held with the activist-philosophers with the alternative account of subjectivity developed, I move outwards – from the individual and the particular to the collective – to specifically name five key modes of radical everyday practice: embodiment, not knowing, trust, care, and imagining. Understood as an articulation of docta spes, or a praxis of educated hope, these five modes capture a sense of everyday sociality imagined otherwise, as well as articulate a collaborative, sustainable and localised account of the emotionally demanding pedagogical pursuit towards the realisation and experience of utopia. An answer to the first question – how are we to live? – is thus processually found within the second question – how do we sustain our emotional commitment to utopia?</p>

Crime writing is not often associated with Holocaust representations, yet an emergent trend, especially in German literature, combines a general, popular interest in crime and detective fiction with historical writing about the Holocaust, or critically engages with the events of the Shoah. Particularly worthy of critical investigation are Bernhard Schlink’s series of detective novels focusing on private investigator Gerhard Selb, a man with a Nazi background now investigating other people’s Nazi pasts, and Ferdinand von Schirach’s The Collini Case (2011) which engages with the often inadequate response of the post-war justice system in Germany to Nazi crimes. In these novels, the detective turns historian in order to solve historic cases. Importantly, readers also follow in the detectives’ footsteps, piecing together a slowly emerging historical jigsaw in ways that compel them to question historical knowledge, history writing, processes of institutionalised commemoration and memory formation, all of which are key issues in Holocaust Studies. The aims of this paper are two-fold. Firstly, I will argue that the significance of this kind of fiction has been insufficiently recognised by critics, perhaps in part because of its connotations as popular fiction. Secondly, I will contend that these texts can be fruitfully analysed by situating them in relation to recent debates about pious and impious Holocaust writing as discussed by Gillian Rose and Matthew Boswell. As a result, these texts act as exemplars of Rose’s contention that impious Holocaust literature succeeds by using new techniques in order to shatter the emotional detachment that has resulted from the use of clichés and familiar tropes in traditional pious accounts; and by placing detectives and readers in a position of moral ambivalence that complicates their understanding of the past on the one hand, and their own moral position on the other.

Silent animation is an animation that was created without using sound recording, especially in dialogue. The greatest strength of silent animation is nonverbal communication which is all forms of gestures that are not words. This research attempts to examine Larva season 3  episode Garlic 1 and 2 by using the theory of nonverbal systems of kinesis and proxemics categories as a reference unit of analysis. This research aims to interpret the meanings of nonverbal messages by using the Gillian Rose visual methodology from site of self and site of production to find the meanings of nonverbal messages in Larva season 3 episode Garlic 1 and 2. The research uses a critical paradigm with a qualitative approach that focuses on scenes that are describing nonverbal messages in Larva visualization. The results had found that the meanings of nonverbal messages displayed in Larva season 3 episode Garlic 1 and 2 also reflected in recent life issues such as struggling, respecting others, earnest, and being patient. Keywords: Nonverbal Messages, Kinesis, Proxemics, Visual Methodology

Artykuł jest fragmentem szerszego projektu badawczego, realizowanego przez autora w październiku, listopadzie i grudniu 2020 roku, dotyczącego materiałów reklamowych wykorzystywanych przez WHO oraz wybrane kraje świata (Polskę, Australię, Kanadę, Nową Zelandię i RPA) w kampaniach społecznych związanych z pandemią SARS-CoV-2. W niniejszym tekście zaprezentowano jedno studium przypadku – kampanię przeprowadzoną w Nowej Zelandii, porównując jej przekazy z materiałami reklamowymi WHO. Główna teza: pandemia pokazała, że w obliczu globalnego zagrożenia wszyscy ludzie są mieszkańcami „Jednego Świata”. Metoda badawcza: triangulacja takich metod badawczych jak case study i analiza kompozycyjna Gillian Rose. W celu zbadania warstwy werbalnej komunikatów posłużono się modelem komunikacji językowej Romana Jakobsona. Analizując językową warstwę komunikatów, założono ich znaczną perswazyjność. Badając wizualną warstwę komunikatów ograniczono się, ze względu na prostotę ich formy, do modalności kompozycyjnej ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem kolorystyki i znaków ikonicznych. Wyniki i wnioski potwierdzają tezę główną przyjętą w badaniu. Materiały dotyczące pandemii, opracowane przez WHO oraz rządy wybranych do badania krajów, leżących na różnych szerokościach geograficznych, są bardzo podobne. Materiały krajowe są czasami wręcz kalką kampanii reklamowych WHO. Zarówno w materiałach WHO, jak i w tych krajowych dominuje funkcja informatywna i impresywna języka przekazu. W warstwie werbalnej nadawcy skupiają się na przekazywaniu niezbędnych informacji o pandemii; ich przekazy, dotyczące zarówno profilaktyki, jak i walki z pandemią, są przy tym silnie perswazyjne. W warstwie wizualnej występują jednak różnice w kolorystyce i znakach ikonicznych, co wykazało zwłaszcza porównanie kampanii prowadzonych przez WHO i rząd Nowej Zelandii. Wartość poznawcza: tekst pokazuje, jak ważną rolę w komunikacji pełnią, zwłaszcza w czasach pandemii, społeczne kampanie reklamowe. Paradoksalnie, pandemia, stanowiąca zagrożenie dla ludzkości, może się przyczynić do rozwoju badań komparatystycznych dotyczących skuteczności środków komunikacji masowej, które zostały zastosowane w jednych krajach i które z powodzeniem będą mogły być wykorzystane w innych.
