stating the obvious…

Stating the obvious is what non-academics claim about a completed-explained academic position  – position that as a compliment for it is obvious that is the nature of the act that it looks that way afterwards. What’s written above is the form in which I tried to remember this particular point. And the form of it …

A Jester

I just listened to a comparatively recent lecture by Zizek He made a point via recalling having recently read a late autobiography by a survivor from Auschwitz. The author is quoted saying something which offers justification for cruel but necessary treatment of the Palestinians by the Israeli state. He repeats the criticism made of this …

Zizek (again)

desire…

Zizek’s definition of an obsessional neurotic (himself included) is someone whose object of desire is the other’s desire. So I do recall a very intimate moment in which a friend told me that he had been drawn into the eyes of a woman, he had seen in her a great beauty which was not an …
