  • The Edges of Everything: A Study in Synontology

    Edward S CaseyARTICLEPhilosophy Today2025

    In this essay I explore the considerable variety of edges that help to shape the places where we live and between which we move. Descriptions are given of inner vs. outer edges; edges that include and those that exclude; edges that give structure to things, people, and other occupants of the lived world; and edges that underlie and support growth as well as those that signal dismantling and destruction. I designate as “synontology” the enterprise…

  • Place in Painting

    Edward S CaseyARTICLEResearch in Phenomenology2024

    This essay examines the role of place in painting. This role is multiple – at once attracting our look but also locatory of whatever is displayed in the painting itself and attracting our attention to it as a place distinct from the place where we are painting it or viewing it. Examined here is also the role of the lived body in the apprehension of place in painting: a corporeal animating force that animates a genuinely lived place as it is set f…

  • Turning Emotion Inside Out: Affective Life beyond the Subject

    Edward S CaseyBOOKTurning Emotion Inside Out2021

    "Edward S. Casey invites us to rethink our emotions as fundamentally emerging from outside and around the self, redirecting our attention from the subjective sources of emotion to what reaches us from outside the domain of the subject"

  • Emotion at the Edge

    Edward S CaseyARTICLEResearch in Phenomenology2020

    It is a modernist article of faith that emotion belongs to the human subject—that it is possessed by this subject from within . We find this view espoused by thinkers as various as Descartes, Hume, and Kant. It is also found in the conventional belief that emotions have their seat “in the heart.” In this essay I explore an alternative paradigm whereby emotion exists as much, if not more, at the outer edges of the subject: in expressive gestures a…

  • Up Against the Wall: Re-Imagining the U.S.-Mexico Border

    Edward S Casey, Mary WatkinsBOOKUp Against the Wall2014

    As increasing global economic disparities, violence, and climate change provoke a rising tide of forced migration, many countries and local communities are responding by building walls—literal and metaphorical—between citizens and newcomers. Up Against the Wall: Re-imagining the U.S.-Mexico Border examines the temptation to construct such walls through a penetrating analysis of the U.S. wall at the U.S.-Mexico border, as well as investigating the…

  • Border versus Boundary at La Frontera

    Open AccessEdward S CaseyARTICLEEnvironment and Planning D…2011Cited by: 11References: 1

    In this essay I discuss the complex and evolving situation at La Frontera, the US - Mexico border. I do so in light of my current research on the intervention of edges in human experiences. In that research, I distinguish several basic types of edge, such as rims, frames, and margins. Two of these types are of particular relevance to the circumstance at La Frontera: borders and boundaries. I identify certain primary differences between these two …

  • Boundary, place, and event in the spatiality of history

    Edward S CaseyARTICLERethinking History2007Cited by: 7References: 1

    In this commentary on Philip Ethington's essay, I focus on the importance of boundary as a basic parameter of the spatial dimensions of history. I also emphasize the relationship between place and event in understanding these same dimensions. In these ways and others, I agree with Ethington's overall thesis as to the inherent spatiality of history; my effort is to specify further some of the precise ways in which this is the case

  • Between Geography and Philosophy: What Does It Mean to Be in the Place-World

    Edward S CaseyARTICLEAnnals of the Association of…2001Cited by: 127

    remarkable convergence between geography and philosophy has become increasingly manifest in the past two decades. It is as if Strabo’s celebrated opening claim in his Geographia had finally become true two millennia later: “The science of Geography, which I now propose to investigate, is, I think, quite as much as any other science, a concern of the philosopher” (Strabo I, 3). What is new (and not in Strabo) is the growing conviction that philoso…
