{"product_id":"16700-judith-butler","title":"Judith Butler","description":"\"Love means not being dead to the other person, and that the other person is not dead to oneself,\" writes Judith Butler about the philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel and love. Based on his essay \"Love\" (1797\/98) and the \"System Fragment of 1800\" (1800), she traces Hegel's early reflections on love. According to Butler, its special moment lies in its reversibility; thus, in Hegel, as in love, the authorial voice changes direction and makes a statement that calls the previous one into question. Butler posits that love possesses its own logic, permeated by \"unlimited openness.\" Self-hatred and self-love, the relationship between the individual and the world, between the living and the dead, the emergence of the material world and of love as expropriation of the self are themes of this essay on the \"root of our being.\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe philosopher Judith Butler (b. 1956) is a professor in the departments of Rhetoric and Comparative Literature at the University of California, Berkeley, and a visiting professor in the humanities faculty at Columbia University, New York.","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Book (978-3-7757-2915-4)","offer_id":44503953998088,"sku":"9783775729154","price":6.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ebook - EPUB (978-3-7757-3095-2)","offer_id":44573666476296,"sku":"9783775730952","price":3.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ebook - PDF (978-3-7757-4935-0)","offer_id":44573666509064,"sku":"9783775749350","price":3.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775729154_96e0efef-b773-4f84-93d6-4ed6d2b09d4b.jpg?v=1744104900","url":"https:\/\/hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/16700-judith-butler","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
