Full textThis dissertation examines the relationship between the experience of beauty and intuitions of transcendence. The first two chapters explore the role that natural beauty plays in humans’ existential ruminations, finding an intimate connection between beauty and belief in transcendent realities. The final three chapters examine the post-WWII turn away from beauty in fine art, and argue that this turn is intimately connected with a broader turn away from transcendent horizons in the wake of the second World War, e.g. that seen in Rawlsian Liberalism. Finally, an argument is developed that a culture without transcendence and beauty is unlikely to thrive in the long run, and so the postwar turn against same should be carefully, soberly abandoned

Carnal transcendence and sexual difference -- An amorous exchange -- Angels playing with placentas -- Fluid subjects -- Poetics -- Oneiric spaces -- Conclusion.
Carnal transcendence imagines a world in which the carnal has the weight and value of transcendence, and the divine is as liveable and readily evoked as the carnal. Carnal transcendence offers a means of thinking through difference in the work of Luce Irigaray, who asks: "why and how long ago did God withdraw from carnal love?" (1991a, p 16). This thesis argues that Irigaray enables her readers to explore the relationship between carnality, transcendence and difference, but resists elaborating it in her work. Carnal transcendence as difference risks remaining an exercise in rhetoric, rather than the transformative and creative philosophy that Irigaray imagines. -- Irigaray's resistance to the carnal is evident in her arguments for sexual difference, which offers our "salvation" if we think it through, and heralds "a new age of thought, art, poetry, and language: the creation of a new poetics" (1993a, p 5). Note the language of transcendence used here. When considered in the light of carnal transcendence, sexual difference imagines a differently sexed culture. This thesis argues that Irigaray's writing is contradictory on this point: it articulates the plurality of women's sexuality, but emphatically excludes theories of sex and gender that emphasise multiplicity. This thesis challenges these limitations by exploring the possibilities of the "other" couple in Irigaray's writing-mother and daughter - for thinking through carnal transcendence as difference. -- This thesis not only explicates a theoretical model for carnal transcendence as difference; it also attempts to put into practice a poetics - a playful rewriting of theory. This celebrates the carnality of Irigaray's writing - evident in her complex imagery of the two lips, mucus, the placenta and angels-and enables an exploration of the philosophical space of the "new poetics" that Irigaray is attempting to engender.

Full textEl cultivo del silencio como vía para transcender la experiencia ordinaria del mundo está presente en múltiples culturas a lo largo de la historia, en campos como la espiritualidad, la estética o la filosofía. Esta tesis estudia las modalidades que adopta esta práctica en la sociedad contemporánea. Partiendo de la hipótesis de que el silencio como experiencia religiosa –entendiendo religión en un sentido amplio, como el ámbito donde las personas gestionan sus experiencias de transcendencia y dan sentido a la vida– se ha reformulado y popularizado como consecuencia de las nuevas formas de relación que el individuo establece con el silencio y con lo transcendente. Aplicando una metodología cualitativa que combina el trabajo etnográfico multisituado con el análisis sociofenomenológico, y empleando las herramientas del análisis documental, la observación participante y la entrevista, la investigación se aproxima a diferentes colectivos para los cuales el silencio constituye un elemento central en sus búsquedas de sentido, desde meditadores cristianos hasta personas que cultivan el silencio en los ámbitos de las religiones orientales, las espiritualidades holísticas, el arte, la terapia o el activismo. El primer objetivo de la tesis ha consistido en analizar diferentes modalidades de práctica, fijándose en las narrativas, los escenarios o los perfiles de los actores implicados. El segundo objetivo ha sido interpretar sociológicamente estas prácticas poniéndolas en relación con su contexto sociocultural. Por un lado, se analiza la relación entre el habitus de los individuos y la forma cómo dan sentido a la experiencia del silencio y la incorporan en su relato biográfico. Por otro lado, se ha trazado el proceso de construcción de la experiencia moderna del silencio analizando cómo los fenómenos del giro subjetivo, el pluralismo o la diseminación de lo sagrado han contribuido a conformarla en sus modalidades actuales. La tesis constata que el silencio se ha resignificado y popularizado en el marco de la religiosidad contemporánea, en dos sentidos: a) como experiencia: en tanto que condición ambiental y psicológica, el silencio actúa como catalizador de vivencias de transcendencia que adquiere protagonismo en diversas modalidades actuales de cultivo de la interioridad; y b) como símbolo transreligioso de una realidad o experiencia transcendente, el silencio ha devenido una idea fuerza que identifica y distingue unas formas de religiosidad subjetivizadas, que priorizan la experiencia íntima de lo sagrado y traspasan los marcos de la religión institucionalizada. Este silencio, como vivencia y como símbolo, se construye como alternativa tanto a la crisis de los lenguajes y prácticas de la religión tradicional como a los modos de vida predominantes en el capitalismo tardío. A partir de los casos analizados, la tesis subraya la dimensión intersubjetiva de las prácticas de silencio. Estas son sociales en tanto que se encarnan en significados, roles y pautas construidos y transmitidos colectivamente, pero también en la medida en que a menudo son, en términos de Alfred Schütz, experiencias compartidas en el vívido presente en sintonía con la alteridad. La tesis cuestiona también las visiones negativas o reduccionistas que atribuyen a las prácticas de silencio una tendencia al aislamiento, al narcisismo o a la apatía social. La práctica moderna del silencio no es, necesariamente, una versión actualizada de la tradicional fuga mundi ni una expresión de la atomización y desmovilización promovidas por el ethos neoliberal, sino que puede ser una reacción frente a estas que promueve el asociacionismo, el compromiso cívico y la acción social transformadora. A partir del concepto de resonancia de Hartmut Rosa, la tesis concluye reflexionando sobre el papel de la experiencia silenciosa como una respuesta potencialmente emancipadora ante las condiciones de alienación de la tardomodernidad.
The cultivation of silence in order to transcend ordinary world experience is present in multiple cultures throughout history, in fields such as spirituality, aesthetics, or philosophy. This thesis studies the modalities adopted by this practice within the framework of contemporary society. We start from the hypothesis that silence as a religious experience –understanding religion in a broad sense, as the realm where people manage their experiences of transcendence and give meaning to life– have been reformulated and popularized as a result of the new forms of relationship that the contemporary individual establishes with both the phenomenon of silence and the transcendent. Applying a qualitative methodology that combines a multisituated ethnographic work with a sociophenomenological analysis, and using the tools of documentary analysis, participant observation and interview, the research approaches different groups for which silence constitutes a central element in his pursuits of transcendence, from Christian meditators to people who cultivate silence within the frame of Eastern religions, holistic spiritualities, art, therapy, or social activism. The first objective of the thesis was to describe and analyze different modalities of practice, focusing on the narratives, scenarios or profiles of the actors involved. The second goal has been to interpret these practices sociologically by relating them to the current sociocultural context. On the one hand, it analyzes the relationship between the habits of individuals and the way in which they give meaning to the experience of silence and incorporate it into their biographical account. On the other hand, the process of constructing the modern experience of silence has been traced by analyzing how the phenomena of the subjective turn, pluralism or the dissemination of the sacred have contributed to shaping it in its current modalities. The thesis states that silence has been re-signified and popularized within the framework of contemporary religiosity, in two ways: a) as an experience: as an environmental and psychological condition, silence acts as a catalyst for subjective experiences of transcendence that acquires prominence in several current modalities of cultivation of the interiority; and b) as a transreligious symbol of a transcendent reality or experience, silence has become a force idea that identifies and distinguishes some subjectivized forms of religiosity, which prioritize the intimate experience of the sacred and go beyond the framework of institutionalized religions. This silence, as an experience and as a metaphor, is constructed as an alternative both to the crisis of the languages and practices of traditional religion and, also, to the values and patterns of life predominant in late capitalism. Based on the cases analyzed, the thesis emphasizes the intersubjective dimension of silence practices. These are social insofar as they are embodied in meanings, roles and patterns constructed and transmitted collectively, but also insofar as they are often, in terms of Alfred Schütz, shared experiences in the present vivid in a tuning-in relationship with otherness. The thesis also questions negative or reductionist views that attribute to silence practices a tendency to isolation, narcissism, or social and political apathy. The modern practice of silence is not necessarily an updated version of the traditional fuga mundi nor an expression of the atomization and demobilization promoted by the neoliberal ethos but, on the contrary, a reaction against them, which promotes associationism, civic engagement and transformative social action. In this sense, based on Harmut Rosa's concept of resonance, the thesis ends by reflecting on the role of silent experience as a potentially emancipatory response to the conditions of alienation characteristic of late modernity.

Full textOver a period of eight months, I conducted an ethnographic comparative study in a northeastern metropolitan area, identifying and exploring a variety of non-normative social spaces regarding both gender and sexuality. I focus this research on comparing two different non-normative communities of gender and sexuality, the queer and the lesbian communities. By concentrating on spaces populated by those who identify as queer, I witness and discuss the process of identity formation. Negotiation of both tangible and theoretical spaces contributes to the operationalization of queer as a category of identity. Using social space bound by identity as a unifying factor, I share observations of time spent in lesbian community, where intricacies of queerness, both as critique and as category of identity, were illuminated. The meaning of the theoretical construct of queer as explained in the literature and the experience of queer as an identity within community have areas of disconnect to which I draw attention in this paper. I interpret community space as giving power and visibility to the experience of those who live outside of, or between, gender norms in an experience that is unrecognized within mainstream heteronormative culture. I found this space creates a voice for a more encompassing and liberating embodiment of gender than that found in mainstream western society with its adherence
