L'Incertezza dei Sogni
Milano: Edizioni SE 2014. Milano 2014; br. pp. 110 cm 13x225. Testi e Documenti. 231. "I filosofi da Sankara a Pascal e a Leibniz hanno amato definire la realt� come un insieme di sogni armonizzati tra loro. In tal modo intendevano sottrarre una parte di realt� al mondo esteriore e presentarlo come una fantasmagoria da cui la coscienza si sarebbe un giorno ridestata. Si stabiliva cos� una sorta di gerarchia: il sogno la percezione l'illuminazione o vera conoscenza che ordinava al tempo stesso i gradi del sapere e quelli di esistenza della realt�. Altri contemporaneamente non hanno mai smesso di interessarsi al contenuto del sogno alle immagini enigmatiche che lo costituiscono e di cui si sono sforzati di interpretare il senso. A seconda delle diverse epoche o delle diverse scuole hanno ritenuto di potervi leggere sia il futuro di colui che sognava sia gli inconfessabili segreti che nascondeva a se stesso. Per me i sogni hanno appena pi� senso delle forme delle nuvole o dei disegni sulle ali delle farfalle. Non annunciano e non rivelano nulla. La loro stessa esistenza � gi� piuttosto imbarazzante. D'altronde possono benissimo essere illusori senza che la realt� lo sia altrettanto. Ma poich� risulta inevitabile confonderli con la realt� almeno mentre si sogna non si pu� esser certi quando non si sogna di non confondere la realt� con essi: � una difficolt� che i filosofi cinesi e quelli occidentali non hanno peraltro mai trascurato." Con uno scritto di Guido Almansi. Edizioni SE unknown

CAILLOIS ROGER; BARASH MEYER TRANSLATION FROM FRENCH
Man Play And Games
University of Illinois Press Urbana and Chicago: 2001. Softcover. Brand new book. According to Roger Caillois play is "an occasion of pure waste: waste of time energy ingenuity skill and often of money." In spite of this--or because of it--play constitutes an essential element of human social and spiritual development. In this classic study Caillois defines play as a free and voluntary activity that occurs in a pure space isolated and protected from the rest of life. Play is uncertain since the outcome may not be foreseen and it is governed by rules that provide a level playing field for all participants. In its most basic form play consists of finding a response to the opponent's action--or to the play situation--that is free within the limits set by the rules. Caillois qualifies types of games-- according to whether competition chance simulation or vertigo being physically out of control is dominant--and ways of playing ranging from the unrestricted improvisation characteristic of children's play to the disciplined pursuit of solutions to gratuitously difficult puzzles. Caillois also examines the means by which games become part of daily life and ultimately contribute to various cultures their most characteristic customs and institutions. Presented here in Meyer Barash's superb English translation Man Play and Games is a companion volume to Caillois's Man and the Sacred. Roger Caillois 1913-78 a French philosopher and writer was a cofounder of France's pathbreaking Coll�ge de Sociologie pour l'�tude du Sacr and the founding editor of Diogenes the journal of the International Council for Philosophy and Humanistic Studies. His books included works of anthropology sociology psychoanalysis art and literary criticism. Meyer Barash coeditor of Marriage and the Family: A Comparative Analysis of Contemporary Problems was on the faculty of Hofstra College in New York. "Well worth the attention of every sociologist interested in the relationship of culture to play."--American Sociological Review "A book to be read for ideas."--American Journal of Sociology "An excellently conceived work."--Social Forces University of Illinois Press, Urbana and Chicago: 2001 paperback
