ZIZ106 Hegel, Modern Art and the End of Art (07.04.2015)
When a philosopher deals with another philosopher or philosophy, his or her stance is never the one of dialogue, but always the one of division, of drawing the line that separates truth from falsity – from Plato whose focus is the line that divides truth from mere opinion, up to Lenin obsessed with the line that separates materialism from idealism. The courses are an exercise in this art of delimination: their aim is to specify the contours of the dialectical-materialist notion of negativity by drawing a line that separates it from other forms of thought of negativity

Deutsches Haus at New York University presents:
Slavoj Žižek: The Hegelian Wound
Friday, September 26th, 2014
at the Iris & B. Gerald Cantor Film Center at NYU
For Hegel, spirit is the wound of nature, it derails every natural balance, but it is at the same time spirit itself which heals its own wound. This Hegelian insight will be developed in its philosophical, theological, and political implications: why is the Fall a happy occurrence? How does permissiveness turn into oppression? Why does only the most brutal capitalist alienation open up the possibility for freedom?
