Beyond the Analytic of Finitude: Kant, Heidegger, Foucault
Get PDFThe editors of the French edition of Michel Foucault's Introduction to Kant's Anthropology claim that Foucault started rereading Kant through Nietzsche in 1952 and then began rereading Kant and Nietzsche through Heidegger in 1953. This claim has not received much attention in the scholarly literature, but its significance should not be underestimated. In this article, I assess the likelihood that the editor’s claim is true and show how Foucault’s introduction to Kant’s Anthropology and his comments about Kant in The Order of Things echo the concerns about finitude and subjectivity in Heidegger’s Kant and the Problem of Metaphysics. I then argue that Foucault's later preoccupation with Kant's essay An Answer to the Question: What is Enlightenment? should be regarded as an attempt to develop an alternative to the Heideggerian interpretation of Kant, and the preoccupation with finitude, that had played such an important role in Foucault’s earlier works
Safeguarding Danishness? Ethnicity, Religion and Acculturation among Danish Americans in Three Danish Spaces in the U.S.
Get PDFThis paper examines and compares patterns of ethnic safeguarding across the generations in three Danish spaces in the US Midwest. Investigating the extent to which ‘Danishness’ has continuously been practised and preferred among descendants of the Danish immigrants who settled there at around the turn of the 20th century, it argues that there is a variety in the level to which Danish ethnic identity has historically been safeguarded in the three spaces. Consequently, this is echoed by variations in the extent to which later generations of immigrants seem to have relinquished Danishness as the defining part of their identities. The interviews indicate that a late 19th century dispute within the Danish church in America regarding the relation between religion and ethnicity, manifested in self-perceptions and life practises among Danish American families, echoed through the generations and impacted the acculturation processes to this very day
The value of CAQDAS for systematising literature reviews
Get PDFSoftware designed to facilitate qualitative and mixed methods research is collectively known as CAQDAS (Computer Assisted Qualitative Data AnalysiS). Available since the 1980s it provides tools designed to support a range of analytic activities across disciplines and sectors. Using references from bibliographic software (e.g. Endnote, Zotero, Mendeley) enables systematic literature reviewing, integrated with data analysis. This article outlines some possibilities, highlighting considerations in planning a literature review for librarians and others
Stå på mål for den gode bibliometriske analyse
Get PDFNår vi som bibliometrikere anvender eller rådgiver om bibliometri, oplever vi, at det kan være svært at efterleve internationale standarder for god praksis. Bibliometriske indikatorer anvendes i stigende grad i vurderingen af institutioners og forskeres performance. Bibliometri anvendes også i forbindelse med bevillinger, beslutningsprocesser og ved generel vurdering af forskningskvalitet, især nu hvor de offentlige investeringer i forskning mindskes, og prioritering er nødvendig. Derudover er det blevet mere påtrængende at vise omverdenen den samfundsmæssige nytte af forskning
The Counter-Conduct of Medieval Hermits
Get PDFThe hermit posed a challenge to a medieval Church that emphasized rule, order, and discipline since oversight of their life could be virtually non-existent. The writings of Richard Rolle, hermit, negotiates the space between Foucauldian exomolgesis and exoagouresis as Rolle strove to articulate the identity of the hermit without any kind of church endorsement. As well, he forged his life out of a struggle with concepts of medieval sin, specifically Pride, which placed him in a queer position in terms of relationships with his surrounding community. His way of life was highly influential in his local community, however, and, through manuscript dissemination, beyond. Because he experienced mystical visions without church oversight, his eremitic life and example inspired a movement toward lay, affective piety in the later Middle Ages. The hermit, in his case, challenges the medieval Church’s hierarchy in that hermits practice a form of living at a local level, placing them in dangerous, sometimes heretical, positions that force the Church to either absorb their practices or suppress them
