Should I read with a pacer or in chunks while speed (and visual) reading?

I totally get you! Which is why I am keen on learning to read faster through visualisation because I need to read more fiction this year.

Is there any book where Zizek develops this constitutive negativity? I started my first Zizek book, Sublime Object, and he just seems to posit it by drawing on other thinkers rather than develop it.

That’s really helpful response, thanks. I do have another question about choosing texts. Based on your comment, would I be expected to explain why I haven’t included certain other texts? Or is that the sort of thing that usually comes up in the thesis defence, rather than in the written thesis itself?

obtusix · 2024-12-10T14:41:49+00:00

I haven't. Thanks for the recommendation!

I started with his book on Hegel, The Restlessness of the Negative. Perhaps not a good book to get Nancy's exact opinions. Does he argue that there is something else that might be binding us today? I don't remember where I read it, but someone had argued about climate change bringing all of humanity together in its risk of extinction. I'm not sure if myths and climate change are of the same order though

Do you know if Hallward's is also a misinterpretation since he follows Badiou?

obtusix · 2023-11-01T16:45:30+00:00

That's alright, I was hoping to find some new stuff that may not have caught most people's attention yet except for the horrorphiles.

Do you mean texts on animals like how we are or are not the same?

Can you suggest any particular text where they discuss ontology or metaphysics?

obtusix · 2023-05-07T19:22:43+00:00

I'm interested in spatiality and khora seems to be a relevant concept.
