The concept of remembrance in Walter Benjamin
No full textThis thesis argues that the role played by the concept of remembrance (Eingedenken)
in Walter Benjamin's 'theory of the knowledge of history' and in his engagement with
Enlightenment universal history, is a crucial one. The implications of Benjamin's
contention that history's 'original vocation' is 'remembrance' have hitherto gone
largely unnoticed. The following thesis explores the meaning of the concept of
remembrance and assesses the significance of this proposed link between history and
memory, looking at both the mnemonic aspect of history and the historical facets of
memory. It argues that by mobilising the simultaneously destructive and constructive
capacities of remembrance, Benjamin sought to develop a critical historiography
which would enable a radical encounter with a previously suppressed past. In so doing
he takes up a stance (explicit and implicit) towards existing philosophical conceptions
of history, in particular the idea of universal history found in German Idealism.
Benjamin reveals an intention to retain the epistemological aspirations of universal
history whilst ridding that approach of its apologetic moment. He criticises existing
conceptions of history on the basis that each assumes homogeneous time to be the
framework in which historical events occur. Insight into the distinctive temporality of
remembrance proves to be the touchstone for this critique, and provides a paradigm
for a very different conception of time. The thesis goes on to determine what is valid
and what is problematic both in this concept of remembrance and in the theory of
historical knowledge which it informs, by subjecting both to the most cogent
criticisms which can be levelled at them. What emerges is not only the importance of
this concept for an understanding of Benjamin's philosophy but the pertinence of this
concept for any philosophical account of memory
A Surplus of Melancholy: the Discourse of Mourning in Freud, Benjamin and Derrida
No full textThe author reviews the mourning, that is one of the most striking features of contemporary discourse in both literary theory and philosophy. Two different but related theories of mourning appear in Freud and Benjamin. In his turn, Derrida weaves the work of mourning into close analysis of texts and into an archive of European ideas and practices.</jats:p

The Bernstein Problem in Dimension 6
No full textAbstractThe solution of the Bernstein problem in the regular and exceptional cases, in all dimensionsn, was made by Yu. Lyubich. A. Grishkov proved that there are no nonregular nonexceptional nuclear Bernstein algebras of type (4,2) with stochastic realization and therefore the Bernstein problem of type (4,2) was completely solved by the present author (J. Algebra, to appear). The aim of this paper is to describe explicitly all simplicial stochastic nonexceptional nonregular Bernstein algebras of type (3,3). Since every nonregular nonexceptional Bernstein algebra of dimension 6 is either of type (4,2) or of type (3,3), the Bernstein problem in dimension 6 is completely solved in this paper
