Posing Sex
Posing Sex: Prospects for a Perceptual Ethics Alan Singer (bio) Sexuality and sexual desire remain tantalizing conundrums for the universalizing intellect, desirous of comprehending the human condition even in its most unconditional manifestations. The representation of sexuality in the history of art is of course ubiquitous. But our equivocal familiarity with this subject matter, whether through attraction or repulsion, too often goes unacknowle…

"Illusionism and the Self-Deceiving "I
Illusionism and the Self-Deceiving “I” Alan Singer (bio) I Hegel’s “Notion,” as elaborated in the Science of Logic (1812), makes an interesting premise for considering the specifically ethical relation of knowledge to ignorance. It proffers a métier for self-superseding experience. It likewise suggests how character might be a counter of aesthetic value. For with the Notion, Hegel famously presupposes a mode of subjective consciousness propelled …

Beautiful Errors
Particularly in the idealist guise of the beautiful, perfectionism remains a hallmark of aesthetic value and aesthetic judgment. But as long as aesthetic perfection remains a prime rationale of art production and appreciation, interpretive languages will inevitably founder on this contradiction: The claimants of artistic knowledge must bracket the very criteria of rationality that otherwise offer to make art and knowledge commensurable. The stand…
Aesthetic Community
In her last published work, Lectures on Kant's Political Philosophy, Hannah Arendt extrapolates from what she takes to be the socializing aptitude of Kantian aesthetic judgment and implicitly revives a long-dormant project of Western philosophy: the ideal of the aesthetic state.1 In the act of imagining a politics for Kant, Arendt evokes the Greek faith in making political order out of aesthetic judgment: the ethical artifice of the polis. Within…
The adequacy of the aesthetic
Role of Transactions in Mental Accounting
The role of the transaction as a mediator of responses to the “theatre ticket” problems of Kahneman and Tversky was investigated. The hypothesis that implicit budgeting triggers topical organisation received some support. A further hypothesis, that social interaction is a salient feature of the problem, was not supported
Is There Always Escalation of Commitment
The Staw (1976) study and the Bazerman, et al. (1984) study showed that individuals responsible for negative consequences consistently escalated their commitment to the previously chosen course of action. The present study attempted to replicate the escalation of commitment phenomenon. Staw's experimental procedures for the condition of high responsibility and negative feedback were followed. The present sample consisted of 93 university students…
The Methods of Form
The expression writing already confesses its guilty knowledge of contradiction. Social reality presupposes consciousness, yet the idea of socially conscious writing typically asserts an ontological priority of social forms over esthetic forms (forms of consciousness) that is not sufficiently reasoned. Moreover, the implied invidious comparison between politically committed fiction and mere estheticism has too narrowly determined popular expectati…
