Oral History Interview: Mark E. Lefebvre (1415)
No full textIn his March 2015 interview with Harv Thompson et al, Mark Lefebvre reflects on his long involvement with the arts in Wisconsin, and specifically Robert Gard's contribution to his development and Wisconsin rural arts. He discussed his youth in northeastern Wisconsin and the influence UW-Extension and his undergraduate career at UW-Madison had in his development as an author and publisher. He related his work with Gard and shared reminiscences about a number of major figures in UW's arts heritage. Finally, he discussed his more recent work with medical education. This interview was conducted for inclusion into the UW-Madison Oral History Program and the Gard Foundation's UW-Madison and WI Community Arts History Project
Henri Lefebvre, Space and Folklore
No full textNous explorons la pensée complexe d’Henri Lefebvre concernant l’espace, ainsi que ses implications pour les ethnologues, au moyen d’une conversation fictive entre Lefebvre et l’auteur de cet article, au cours d’une promenade dans une petite ferme du sud-est de la Colombie britannique. Certains aspects des points de vue de Lefebvre sont exposés et illustrés à partir d’exemples se présentant sur place, tels que des clôtures ou des emplacements de feux de camp. Le schéma tripartite de Lefebvre pour conceptualiser l’espace s’articule dans le cours de la conversation, en mettant en avant l’importance du concept souvent éludé d’« espace vécu ». Nous voulons démontrer que considérer l’espace de cette manière dialogique, inclusive et ouverte, amènerait à une régénération et à une approche potentiellement transformative de notre compréhension de l’espace — une approche qui aurait de nombreuses implications dans l’étude des traditions culturelles.The complex spatial thinking of Henri Lefebvre and its implications for folkloristics are explored in the context of a fictitious conversation between him and the author as they walk around a small farm in southeastern British Columbia. Aspects of Lefebvre’s position are explored and illustrated using examples from this setting, such as fences and campfire pits. Lefebvre’s tripartite schema for conceptualizing space is articulated during this conversation, foregrounding the importance of the oft-occluded espace vécu (lived space). Viewing this as a dialogic, embodied, open-ended domain of space is shown to be a highly generative and potentially transformative approach to understanding space — an approach which has numerous implications for the study of cultural tradition

O estatuto do (não)conceito de ‘urbano’ na obra de Henri Lefebvre
No full textThis paper aims to address, in a broad manner, another interpretative framework for the standardized concept of urban in the work of Henri Lefebvre. It is, mainly, an effort to finding methodological elements used by the author that explain the intention behind this concept. My interest, then, is to conduct a research on the definition of urban by Lefebvre, in order to contribute to the understanding of this important philosopher’s thought. The concept of urban has been the main topic of debates and controversies regarding Lefebvre’s perspective, as it is evoked by the author in a broad sense – rather than in interpretative closure. The argument developed is that the conceptual arsenal of the author is similar to Adorno’s Dialectics, thus acknowledging the non-concept status of how Lefebvre makes use of the signifier “urban”.
KEYWORDS: Urban; Dialectics; Non-concept; Henri LefebvreL'objectif de cet article est de ponctuer, de façon générale, une autre clé interprétative pour l'étude du concept d'urbain dans l'oeuvre de Henri Lefebvre. C'est, surtout, un effort pour essayer de rencontrer des éléments méthodologiques utilisés qui expliquent l'intention derrière ce concept. Mon intérêt, ainsi, est de faire une généalogie de la définition d'urbain chez Lefebvre pour, tenu en compte son raffinement, contribuer à la compréhension de la pensée de cet important philosophe. Le concept d'urbain est l'un des ceux qui a mobilisé le plus des débats et des controverses par rapport à la pensée de Lefebvre, c'est pourquoi il apparaît dans l'oeuvre de l'auteur avec une ouverture très grande – et qui n'a pas une fermeture interprétative. L'argument développé, c'est que l'arrangement conceptuel de l'auteur est semblable à Dialectique bien comme elle a été comprise par Adorno, reconnaissant, ainsi, le statut de non-concept pour l'usage auquel Lefebvre recourt quand il fait référence au signifiant « urbain ».
MOTS-CLÉS: Urbain; Dialectique; Non concept; Henri LefebvreO objetivo deste artigo é tangenciar, em linhas gerais, uma outra chave interpretativa para o estatuto do conceito de urbano na obra de Henri Lefebvre. É, sobretudo, um esforço para tentar encontrar elementos metodológicos utilizados pelo autor que expliquem a intenção por detrás desse conceito. Meu interesse, portanto, é fazer uma geneaologia da definição de urbano em Lefebvre para contribuir para a compreensão do pensamento desse importante filósofo. O conceito de urbano é um dos que mais têm mobilizado debates e controvérsias com relação ao pensamento de Lefebvre, isso porque ele aparece em sua obra com uma abertura muito grande – e não com um fechamento interpretativo. O argumento desenvolvido é que o arranjo conceitual do autor é semelhante à ideia da Dialética como entendida por Adorno, reconhecendo, assim, o estatuto de não conceito para o uso que Lefebvre faz do significante ‘urbano’.

Henri Lefebvre y la morfología de una dialetica espacial
No full textFrequentemente o trabalho de Henri Lefebvre é admitido como extensão capaz de iluminar o pensamento de Marx ou como uma porta de entrada para a compreensão da dialética, contudo essa via está repleta de armadilhas. O tratamento da dialética lefebvriana como continuidade imediata e aplicação rigorosa do que já estava inscrito em Marx é uma delas. A nem tão pouco usual identificação das tríades de Lefebvre com a estrutura triádica da dialética hegeliana é outra. Nesse sentido, este artigo busca apresentar os aspectos da morfologia e da estrutura do pensamento dialético de Henri Lefebvre marcando a especificidade radical que faz parte da forma como o autor reelabora o material que lhe foi herdado para a composição de novas bases para o pensamento crítico.El trabajo de Henri Lefebvre a menudo se admite como una extensión capaz de iluminar el pensamiento de Marx o como una puerta de entrada a la comprensión de la dialéctica, pero este camino está lleno de trampas. El tratamiento de la dialéctica de Lefebvre como continuidad inmediata y aplicación estricta de lo que ya estaba inscrito en Marx es uno de ellos. La identificación no tan inusual de las tríadas de Lefebvre con la estructura triádica de la dialéctica hegeliana es otra. En este sentido, este artículo busca presentar los aspectos de la morfología y la estructura del pensamiento dialéctico de Henri Lefebvre, marcando la especificidad radical que es parte de la forma en que el autor reelabora el material heredado para la composición de nuevas bases para el pensamiento crítico.Often, Henri Lefebvre\u27s work is either perceived as an extension that clarifies Marx\u27s thought or as a gateway to the understanding of dialectic, however this way is full of pitfalls. The treatment of the Lefebvrian dialectic as an immediate continuity and a rigorous application of what was already inscribed in Marx\u27s work is one of them. The usual identification of Lefebvre\u27s triads with the triadic structure of the Hegelian dialectic is another. In this sense, this article seeks to present aspects of the morphology and structure of Henri Lefebvre\u27s dialectic thinking, emphasizing the radical specificity of the way the author reworks the material inherited by him aiming to compose some of new basis of the contemporary critical thinking
Henri Lefebvre, "Metaphilosophy." Trans. David Pernbach.
No full textThis may be a difficult book for some philosophers to read, in a number of ways. First and foremost, it is written by someone who orbits and even penetrates the discipline of philosophy in a professional capacity, yet he is calling for its end. More precisely, its author, Henri Lefebvre (1901-1991), is saying stop whatever philosophy you’re currently doing. On the one hand, this is a clarion call to philosophers around the world to take philosophy to its limits and beyond. On the other hand, it offers a bleak take on the contemporary relevance of philosophical inquiry. To Lefebvre, much of philosophy is moribund and has been so for some time. That is, of course, if it is not already dead. Lefebvre identifies eleven aporia that he deems to be at the heart of philosophy’s withering away, all of which detail the
contradiction of the gap between the real and the idea; everyday life and the privileged position of the
philosopher. In a way, it could even be seen as anti-philosophy. Regardless of where it stands on any
philosophical purity spectrum, it is above all inspired by Marx’s famous theses on Feuerbach, specifically the eleventh thesis: ‘Philosophers have only interpreted the world; the point, however, is to change it.’ Lefebvre is, essentially, saying that the world cannot change if philosophy does not change, and the world ought to change.Book revie
