  1. Potentialities: collected essays in philosophy.Giorgio Agamben - 1999 - Stanford, Calif.: Stanford University Press. Edited by Daniel Heller-Roazen.
    This volume constitutes the largest collection of writings by the Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben hitherto published in any language and all but one appear in English for the first time. The essays consider figures in the history of philosophy (Plato, Plotinus, Spinoza, Hegel) and twentieth-century thought (Walter Benjamin, Heidegger, Derrida, Deleuze, the historian Aby Warburg, and the linguist J.-C. Milner). They also examine several central concerns of Agamben: the relation of linguistic and metaphysical categories; messianism in Islamic, Jewish, and Christian (...)

    Jacques Derrida is probably the most famous European philosopher alive today.

Its appearance will assist Derrida's readers pro and con in coming to terms with a complex and controversial book.

  • Of human potential: an essay in the philosophy of education.Israel Scheffler - 1985 - Boston: Routledge & Kegan Paul.
    The concept of potential plays a prominent role in the thinking of parents, educators and planners the world over. Although this concept accurately reflects central features of human nature, its current use perpetuates traditional myths of fixity, harmony and value, calculated to cause untold mischief in social and educational practice. First published in 1985, Israel Scheffler's book aims to demythologise the concept of potential. He shows its roots in genuine aspects of human nature, but at the same time frees it (...)

  • A fissure in the distinction: Hannah Arendt, the family and the public/private dichotomy.Christopher Philip Long - 1998 - Philosophy and Social Criticism 24 (5):85-104.
    By way of an analysis of Arendt's defense of the public/private distinction in The Human Condition, this essay offers a re-interpretation of the status of the family as a realm where the categories of action and speech play a vital role. The traditional criterion for the establishment of the public/private distinction is grounded in an idealization of the family as a sphere where a unity of interests destroys the conditions for the categories of action and speech. This essay takes issue (...)
