Friday, October 9, 2015, 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm
THE INFINITE JUDGMENT, Foundations of Psychoanalysis DANIEL HELLER-ROAZEN
How can speech that seems to be negative be, in truth, affirmative? Aristotle, Kant and Deleuze propose some far-reaching answers to the question in their theories of indefinite naming, infinite judgment and the disjunctive synthesis.
SUGGESTED READINGS: Aristotle: On Interpretation. Kant: Jäsche Logic (103-104); Critique of Pure Reason (A567/B595-A583/B611). Deleuze & Guattari: Anti-Oedipus, “The Disjunctive Synthesis.”
MEETING PLACE: The School of Visual Arts, 136 West 21st Street (between Sixth and Seventh Avenues), New York City. Please ask at the front desk for the room number.
ATTENDANCE FEE: $20. For students with ID: $10. Attendance is free for all members of Après-Coup as well as for the faculty and students of the School of Visual Arts.
