  • A Different Cup of Time

    Frederick TurnerARTICLEKronoScope2023

    This essay provides a poetic picture of the author’s experience of the International Society for the Study of Time, of which he has been a member since the 1970s. It includes excerpts from the author’s poetry, including from “Turn Again,” an unpublished work of “semantic autobiography” that charts the process by which the meanings of words emerge and deepen over a lifetime. The word “Time,” especially as characterized by the founder of the Societ…

  • Summarizing Epic

    Open AccessFrederick TurnerARTICLERupkatha Journal on Interdisciplina…2021

    It is claimed that the literary humanities are profoundly compromised and may even be irrelevant, that the appeal of literature is quixotic and anachronistic at best. I argue that there is life in the old dog yet. In the genre we set aside and dismissed, i.e., epic, the oldest one of all, may be found the revival of literary studies; and close by is the whole burgeoning, vital, and chaotic world of current popular epic, of big-screen action and f…

  • Introductory Essay

    Frederick TurnerARTICLEKronoScope2020

    A perfect positivist science envisages an ideal state of invariance in which causality is perfect, cause is identical to inference, and effects and causes symmetrically imply each other.1 Any Theory Of Everything (or "TOE") must start out with this state: of zero entropy, complete unity, and infinite mechanical and thermodynamic order

  • Renegade

    Frederick TurnerBOOKRenegade2017

    Though branded as pornography for its graphic language and explicit sexuality, Henry Miller’s Tropic of Cancer is far more than a work that tested American censorship laws. In this riveting book, published to coincide with the fiftieth anniversary of Tropic of Cancer 's initial U.S. release, Frederick Turner investigates Miller’s unconventional novel, its tumultuous publishing history, and its unique place in American letters. Written in the slum…

  • Argentina

    Marita Carballo, Frederick TurnerARTICLEComparative Sociology2005Citada por: 2

    The Argentine economic crisis of 1999-2003 caused GDP to drop precipitously and levels of poverty and unemployment to rise greatly. Although more profound, this crisis resembled three others since 1966, and it led Argentines overwhelmingly to reject the members of their political class. In 1999, the confidence of Argentine citizens in politicians and political institutions was already very low, reflecting in part the earlier crises and the fact t…

  • Modernism

    Frederick TurnerARTICLECritical Review1997Referencias: 1

    Donald Kuspit's The Cult of the Avant‐Garde Artist traces the therapeutic mission of modern art through its rise and decline into postmodern decadence. The problems Kuspit rightly finds in such artists as Warhol and Koons, however, are endemic to modernism itself: its diagnosis of bourgeois society as sick and in need of cure is fundamentally unsound. The modernist cure is, moreover, worse than the purported disease. What modernists call kitsch i…

    different kinds of value-numerical value, truth value, cash value, moral value, aesthetic value? Professional economists today are by and large content to ignore the issue of the origins of value, and to treat it, the way eighteenth and nineteenth-century scientists treated matter, as if it were given, irreducible, indestructible, and without internal articulation. If pressed, most economists would now define value as marginal utility, which mean…
