2019Esiste una realtà oggettiva? Che cos'è l’ambiente mentale? In che modo e in che senso specie diverse interpretano il mondo in cui vivono? Abbiamo la possibilità di superare il limite incarnato di una visione antropocentrata della realtà, unicamente fissata entro i parametri percettivi della nostra specie? Queste domande costituiscono il filo rosso che accomuna e unisce i lavori raccolti in questo volume. Due riflessioni: quella di Daniele Palmieri si rivolge alla relazione mondo-animale a partire da Jakob von Uexküll e dal concetto di Umwelt; quella di Nicola Zengiaro cerca soluzione ai due «dogmi» dell’antropocentrismo, ovvero che non sia possibile evadere dall'antropocentrismo e che questo stesso tentativo di fuga sia a sua volta antropocentrico. Il percorso tracciato contamina ora gli spazi dell’ontologia, ora quelli della metafisica. In comune, sullo sfondo, la necessità di ridefinire la nostra idea di relazione, sia essa tra individuo e individuo o tra individuo e mondo-ambiente. Introduzione di Natan Feltrin. Postfazine di Roberto Marchesini. Autori: Daniele Palmieri, Nicola Zengiaro. Prefazione: Roberto Marchesini, Natan Feltrin.

Nice head and tail pieces, and decorative initials. Folio. 320 mm. Modern plain full black leather binding. Hardbound. Very good. Thomas Newcomb (1681/2-1765), poet, was born in Shropshire. At Corpus Christi College he met the poet Edward Young, his most significant literary associate. Newcomb took the degree of BA in 1704 and became chaplain to Charles Lennox, first duke of Richmond. He was rector of Stopham in Sussex from 1705 to at least 1723. He was also rector of nearby Barlavington from 1707 until his death. He began his literary career in 1709 with An Epistle from the Duke of Burgundy to the French King, a panegyric on Marlborough, returning to the theme with Pacata Britannia (1713), on the treaty of Utrecht. His satiric voice was established with Bibliotheca: a Poem. Occasion'd by the Sight of a Modern Library (1712), along lines suggested by Jonathan Swift's Battle of the Books; it contains virulent attacks on many modern writers, especially Daniel Defoe and Richard Bentley, a panegyric on Richard Steele, and a vision of the goddess Oblivion, whose resemblance to Alexander Pope's Dulness was noted by John Nichols and Joseph Warton. In 1723 Newcomb published, by subscription, this Miltonic epic. It was dedicated to the Earl of March, who succeeded that year to the title of Duke of Richmond. Scarce. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! W151
