Abstract

One of the defining features of modernism lies in its far-reaching rethinking of the relation between the human and the non-human. In the present volume, this crucial aspect of modernism's legacy is investigated from an authentically transnational perspective, taking an innovative stance on a diverse range of authors - from posthumanist classics such as Beckett and Woolf to Valentine de Saint-Point, Radoje Domanovic and Aldo Palazzeschi among others. On the one hand, this collection sheds new light on the modernist contribution to posthumanism, providing a valuable reference point for future studies on the topic. On the other, it offers a new take on the transnational dimension of modernism, highlighting unexplored convergences between modernist authors from several different national contexts.

Abstract

A quoi sert la philosophie ? En interrogeant la science, nous pouvons aujourd'hui résoudre quantité de problèmes et lever le voile sur ce qui, il n'y a pas si longtemps encore, nous semblait auréolé de mystère. Mais certaines questions demeurent ouvertes, parce qu'elles n'admettent aucune réponse définitive. De siècle en siècle, de génération en génération, elles ont toujours accompagné les hommes et sont au coeur de maintes situations auxquelles nous sommes chaque jour confrontés. Elles concernent la mort, la vérité, l'univers, la liberté, la justice, la beauté, le temps. La philosophie ne prétend pas y répondre une fois pour toutes, mais elle nous apprend à les poser et à réfléchir sur le monde dans lequel nous vivons et sur la signification qu'il a pour nous. Ce livre se veut une initiation à la philosophie à l'usage de tous : des jeunes qui, en classe de terminale, doivent pour la première fois en aborder l'étude et de ceux qui aspirent à en connaître les fondements.

Abstract

There were many challenges, successes, and concerns in providing long-term care to older adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. Looking at central North Carolina, the authors highlight the implications of providing long-term care to older Americans, with an emphasis on the importance of communication, resilience of staff, and value of human infrastructure. Based on extensive interviews, this collection of essays reflects on the participants' individual experiences and represents the voices of staff and caregivers working in long-term residential care communities, in-home and community-based programs, as well as regional aging service providers and advocates.
