＜p＞＜strong＞Nothing in Your Life Is Ordinary＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Your present world isn’t supposed to be this small. You were made for something much bigger. And no, you don’t have to be an astronaut, or even a ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ fan, to live it. ＜em＞Finding God in a Galaxy Far, Far Away＜/em＞ is not about space travel, or even a movie. It’s about rediscovering your sense of wonderーsomething we adults have successfully squelched from our everyday lives. But God never meant it to be that way. Timothy Jones, by way of an astounding, eye-opening study of the spiritual parallels found in the Star Wars saga, will make you a kid again. You’ll be marveling at the mysterious, laughing anew at life’s “coincidences,” and remembering above all the Creator for which you were made.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞May the True Force Be with You＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Remember when ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ first captured your imagination? How your longing for adventure propelled you to distant worlds and transformed you into a Jedi knight faster than you could say, “Luke, I am your father”?＜/p＞ ＜p＞This same longing, once sparked by John Williams’s triumphant score and fanned by Darth Vader’s sweeping black cape, is your ticket to life’s greatest adventure.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Join Timothy Paul Jones on an astounding, eye-opening exploration of the spiritual themes in the ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ saga and the truth will become clear: Like young Luke Skywalker, you were also made for moreー＜em＞much＜/em＞ more.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Rediscover ＜em＞awe.＜/em＞ Revel in the wonder of every moment.

This universal longing explains why we ride roller coasters and tell scary stories. This universal longing for awe also explains why, after nearly thirty years, the popularity of the Star Wars saga shows no sign of subsiding.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Sacred Force of Star Wars Jedi【電子書籍】[ William Sims Bainbridge ]

＜p＞As secularization threatens the stability of traditional religions, Star Wars provides a case study of how key functions of religion may transfer to innovative organizations and subcultures that challenge conventional definitions of faith, sacredness, and revival. This Element therefore examines the vast community of fans, especially gamers, who have turned Star Wars into a parareligion, providing them with a sense of the meaning of life and offering psychological compensators for human problems. The research methods include ethnography, participant observation, census of roles played by gaming participants, and recommender system statistics. The Element also shows the genetic connections between Star Wars and its predecessors in science fiction. Investigating the Star Wars fandom phenomenon ? which involves hundreds of thousands of people ? illustrates how audience cults and client cults evolve. Ultimately, Star Wars remains culturally and economically significant as we approach completion of its first half-century.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】NATO and the Strategic Defence Initiative A Transatlantic History of the Star Wars Programme【電子書籍】

＜p＞This book explores the largely neglected issue of responses to the US Strategic Defence Initiative (SDI, or the 'Star Wars' missile defence programme) across NATO.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The chapters here explore the reactions of different Western allies to the announcement of the SDI in 1983 and especially the 1985 invitation to participate. While existing studies have explored the origins of the American programme and the role it may have played in ending the Cold War, this volume breaks new ground by considering the impact of the SDI on transatlantic relations in the 1980s. Based on newly available archival sources, this volume re-evaluates the responses of eight NATO member-state governments, as well as the Soviet leadership, to the SDI. In addition to looking at ‘top-down’ governmental reactions, the volume also explores the ‘bottom-up’ response to the SDI of civil society and peace activists on both sides of the Atlantic. The volume examines how the American initiative ? derisively named ‘Star Wars’ by its detractors ? provoked a crisis in relations with its allies during the final decade of the Cold War and how those tensions within NATO were ultimately resolved.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book will be of much interest to students of Cold War history, strategic studies, foreign policy and international history.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞This book provides the first detailed and comprehensive examination of all the materials making up the ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ franchise relating to the portrayal and representation of real-world history and politics.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Drawing on a variety of sources, including films, published interviews with directors and actors, novels, comics, and computer games, this volume explores the ways in which historical and contemporary events have been repurposed within ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞. It focuses on key themes such as fascism and the Galactic Empire, the failures of democracy, the portrayal of warfare, the morality of the Jedi, and the representations of sex, gender, and race. Through these themes, this study highlights the impacts of the fall of the Soviet Union, the War on Terror, and the failures of the United Nations upon the ‘galaxy far, far away’.

Or is there a darker underlying philosophy that is being subtly presented?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Many people see significant analogies between ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ and Christianity, but ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞, at its core, is a subtle presentation of concepts incompatible with Judeo-Christian values.

This is closely aligned with the New Age philosophy of God being a universal force. Those viewing ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ must be wary to avoid deception.

＜p＞In a new and updated version of this best-selling book, John McDowell explores the many spiritual themes that weave throughout the Star Wars films. From the Force to the dark side, the issues discussed in the films have a moral and spiritual complexity that, if paid attention to, can help us better understand our place in the world and our relation to others and to God. George Lucas, the creator of Star Wars, did not intend for his films to be mere entertainment, McDowell argues.

＜p＞The original ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ trilogy famously follows Joseph Campbell's model for the hero's journey, making Luke Skywalker's story the new hero quest for a modern age. With the nine-plus film saga complete, however, new story patterns have emerged as the hero's journey is imagined over and over for characters of different ages, genders, and backgrounds. The prequels offer the plot arc of the villain's journey through Anakin. Leia and Padme, while damsels in the men's story, break out to undergo their own ordeals. The heroine's journey is exemplified by Rey and Jyn. Obi-Wan, Yoda, and Vader must accept the loss of power and fade into spirit guardians, perpetuating the lifecycle. By the sequel era, the original trio become mentors to the younger generation and finally must do the same. Meanwhile, the Mandalorian explores a different form of the quest as he transforms from immature warrior to patriarch. This book tracks the journeys of over 20 characters throughout the franchise.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞Politics, craft, and cultural nostalgia in the remaking of ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ for a new age＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far awayーway back in the twenty-first century’s first decadeー＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ seemed finished. Then in 2012 George Lucas shocked the entertainment world by selling the franchise, along with Lucasfilm, to Disney. This is the story of how, over the next five years, ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ went from near-certain extinction to what Wired magazine would call “the forever franchise,” with more films in the works than its first four decades had produced.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Focusing on ＜em＞The Force Awakens＜/em＞ (2015), ＜em＞Rogue One＜/em＞ (2016), ＜em＞The Last Jedi＜/em＞ (2017), and the television series ＜em＞Rebels＜/em＞ (2014?18), Dan Golding explores the significance of pop culture nostalgia in overcoming the skepticism, if not downright hostility, that greeted the ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ relaunch. At the same time he shows how Disney, even as it tapped a backward-looking obsession, was nonetheless creating genuinely new and contemporary entries in the ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ universe.＜/p＞ ＜p＞A host of cultural factors and forces propelled the Disney-engineered ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ renaissance, and all figure in Golding’s deeply informed analysis: from John Williams’s music in ＜em＞The Force Awakens＜/em＞ to Peter Cushing’s CGI face in ＜em＞Rogue One＜/em＞, to Carrie Fisher’s passing, to the rapidly changing audience demographic. ＜em＞Star Wars after Lucas＜/em＞ delves into the various responses and political uses of the new ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ in a wider context, as in reaction videos on YouTube and hate-filled, misogynistic online rants. In its granular textual readings, broad cultural scope, and insights into the complexities of the multimedia galaxy, this book is as entertaining as it is enlightening, an apt reflection of the enduring power of the ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ franchise.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Myth Awakens Canon, Conservatism, and Fan Reception of Star Wars【電子書籍】

＜p＞The trailers for Star Wars: The Force Awakens made a strong impression on fans. Many were excited by what they saw as a return to the spirit of George Lucas's 1977 creation. Others--including several white supremacy groups--were upset and offended by key differences, most notably the shift away from a blond, blue-eyed, male protagonist. When the film was finally released, reactions similarly seemed to hinge on whether or not The Force Awakens renewed the "mythic" aspects of the original trilogy in ways that fans approved of. The Myth Awakens examines the religious implications of this phenomenon, considering the ways in which myth can function to reinforce "traditional" social and political values. In their analyses the authors of this book reflect on fan responses in relation to various elements of (and changes to) the Star Wars canon--including toys, video games, and novels, as well as several of the films. They do so using a variety of critical tools, drawing from studies of gender, race, psychology, politics, authority, music, ritual, and memory.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Andererseits wird anhand der Filmgeschichte der beiden bisher gedrehten Star-Wars-Trilogien aufgezeigt, wie sich das Konzept von Gut und B?se entwickelt und mit den aktuelleren Filmepisoden gar an Realit?tssinn gewinnt. Insbesondere die Werke Michael Schmidt-Salomons werden hierbei herangezogen und am Beispiel des Nationalsozialismus soll verdeutlicht werden, wie stark die Illusion von Gut und B?se selbst heute noch in den K?pfen oft nur scheinbar aufgekl?rter B?rger verankert ist.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

タイトル: Way Out There in the Blue: Reagan, Star Wars and the End of the Cold War著者: Frances Fitzgerald出版社: Simon & Schuster出版日: 2000年04月07日古本非常に良い。端が少し摩耗しているが、汚れのないきれいな本。製本状態は良好。ダスト ジャケットが付属している場合は、それも含まれます。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。 "Way Out There in the Blue" is a major work of history by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of "Fire in the Lake." Using the Star Wars missile defense program as a magnifying glass on his presidency, Frances FitzGerald gives us a wholly original portrait of Ronald Reagan, the most puzzling president of the last half of the twentieth century. Reagan's presidency and the man himself have always been difficult to fathom. His influence was enormous, and the few powerful ideas he espoused remain with us still -- yet he seemed nothing more than a charming, simple-minded, inattentive actor. FitzGerald shows us a Reagan far more complex than the man we thought we knew. A master of the American language and of self-presentation, the greatest storyteller ever to occupy the Oval Office, Reagan created a compelling public persona that bore little relationship to himself. The real Ronald Reagan -- the Reagan who emerges from FitzGerald's book -- was a gifted politician with a deep understanding of the American national psyche and at the same time an executive almost totally disengaged from the policies of his administration and from the people who surrounded him. The idea that America should have an impregnable shield against nuclear weapons was Reagan's invention. His famous Star Wars speech, in which he promised us such a shield and called upon scientists to produce it, gave rise to the Strategic Defense Initiative. Reagan used his sure understanding of American mythology, history and politics to persuade the country that a perfect defense against Soviet nuclear weapons would be possible, even though the technology did not exist and was not remotely feasible. His idea turned into amultibillion-dollar research program. SDI played a central role in U.S.-Soviet relations at a crucial juncture in the Cold War, and in a different form it survives to this day. Drawing on prodigious research, including interviews with the participants, FitzGerald offers new insights into American foreign policy in the Reagan era. She gives us revealing portraits of major players in Reagan's administration, including George Shultz, Caspar Weinberger, Donald Regan and Paul Nitze, and she provides a radically new view of what happened at the Reagan-Gorbachev summits in Geneva, Reykjavik, Washington and Moscow. FitzGerald describes the fierce battles among Reagan's advisers and the frightening increase of Cold War tensions during Reagan's first term. She shows how the president who presided over the greatest peacetime military buildup came to espouse the elimination of nuclear weapons, and how the man who insisted that the Soviet Union was an "evil empire" came to embrace the Soviet leader, Mikhail Gorbachev, and to proclaim an end to the Cold War long before most in Washington understood that it had ended. "Way Out There in the Blue" is a ground-breaking history of the American side of the end of the Cold War. Both appalling and funny, it is a black comedy in which Reagan, playing the role he wrote for himself, is the hero.

＜p＞Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2009 im Fachbereich Geschichte Europa - Deutschland - Nachkriegszeit, Kalter Krieg, Note: 1,0, Universit?t Konstanz, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Vorstellung eines existierenden Zusammenhangs zwischen dem SDI-Forschungsprogramm und der Offenbarung eines drohenden sowjetischen Bankrots, stellt zwar eine verf?hrerische Interpretationsgrundlage f?r das Ende des Kalten Krieges dar, w?re aber ohne die Kontextualisierung von weiteren entscheidenden Faktoren zu trivial. Die MAD-Doktrin, welche 30 Jahre lang f?r Frieden gesorgt hatte, hat sich im Zuge der Untersuchungen als ein extrem fragiles Konzept heraus kristallisiert. Der Verlass auf die Rationalit?t des Gegners, die Verl?sslichkeit auf Individuen und Technik, der zweifelhafte Schutz f?r die Alliierten und der n?tige Verzicht auf Selbstschutz, illustrieren deutlich die gro?e Fehleranf?lligkeit der Doktrin. Nachdem es zu einer deutlichen D?monisierung des Gegners gekommen war, konnte Reagan das SDI als seine Alternative zur MAD-Doktrin und als notwendiges Mittel gegen den sowjetischen Aggressor verkaufen. Ob des Umstandes, dass Reagan ein gl?hender Anti-Kommunist war und die sowjetische Struktur deutlich ablehnte, verkaufte er sich jedoch gleicherma?en als Atomwaffengegner. In dieser Arbeit wird, dass die Ank?ndigung des SDI-Raketenschildes neben einer immensen wirtschaftlichen Belastung des US-Haushalts und einer extremen technologischen Herausforderung, die Gefahr eines Atomkrieges ernsthaft und in bestimmter Weise auch bewusst provoziert wurde.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Theologie - Didaktik, Religionsp?dagogik, Note: 1,7, Friedrich-Schiller-Universit?t Jena (Theologische Fakult?t), Veranstaltung: Bibel im Religionsunterricht, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Biblische Motive in Science-Fiction-Filmen? Anakin Skywalker in Analogie zu Jesus Christus? Warum dieses Thema in einer religionsp?dagogischen Arbeit? Ich m?chte zu Beginn meiner Ausf?hrungen eine kleine Begebenheit schildern, die - so hoffe ich zumindest - den Grund f?r meine Themenwahl ersichtlich macht. Wir leben in einer Zeit, in der kaum jemand mehr die Motivation findet, sich religi?stradierter Wurzeln zu besinnen, geschweige denn diese an die n?chsten Generationen weiterzugeben. Dies wurde mir im vergangenen Dezember wieder einmal deutlich vor Augen gef?hrt. Ich unterhielt mich mit einem zehnj?hrigen Jungen und fragte ihn, ob er sich schon auf Weihnachten freue und ob er denn wisse, warum wir ?berhaupt dieses Fest feiern. Obwohl ich seinen famili?ren Hintergrund kenne und mir durchaus bewusst war, dass meine Frage provokant gewirkt haben muss, ?berraschte mich seine Antwort dennoch. 'Weihnachten hat irgendwas mit Amerika zu tun. Da kriegen wir dann Geschenke.' Als ich nun seine Eltern fragte, ob sie ihrem Kind nichts von der Weihnachtstradition erz?hlt h?tten, wurde mir geantwortet: 'Wir glauben nicht an Gott und haben auch keine Zeit unseren Kindern Dinge beizubringen, von denen wir selbst keine Ahnung haben. Und warum sollen wir den Kindern etwas erz?hlen, was um diese Jahreszeit sowieso permanent im Fernsehen gezeigt wird? Wenn es sie interessiert, sehen sie es doch dort.' ?ber diese Aussage dachte ich lange Zeit nach. Was mich erschrak, war nicht etwa die Erkl?rung einer ostdeutschen Mittelstandsfamilie nichts mehr ?ber Gott oder den Grund des Weihnachtsfestes zu wissen, sondern der zweite Teil ihres Statements. Ich will hier nicht den Umstand thematisieren, dass unsere Gesellschaft durch eine Art der kulturellen Degeneration gekennzeichnet ist - Weihnachten ist immerhin ein tradiertes Fest, dass von jedem in irgendeiner Art und Weise gefeiert wird und von dem man deshalb annehmen sollte, dass zumindest eine gewisse Grundkenntnis diesbez?glich vorhanden ist - sondern ich m?chte mich mit der Funktion der modernen Medien besch?ftigen, denen offenbar bei der Vermittlung grundlegenden Wissens ein gro?er Stellenwert beigemessen wird.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The year 1982 was a desperate time for the U.S. defense community. The United States had no effective system to protect itself completely from a Soviet attack with nuclear-armed intercontinental ballistic missiles, which the Soviet Union possessed in large quantity, and the doomsday philosophy of mutually assured destruction seemed inescapable. But people in the Reagan administration, including Reagan himself, were not content with what they viewed as a morally unacceptable status quo. Then Adm. James Watkins, a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, asked, Wouldnt it be better if we could develop a system that would protect, rather than avenge, our people? With that, the presidents commitment to the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) became certain. Ultimately, SDI reflected Western political idealism, a powerful ingredient in the struggle to finally conquer the terrors of the Cold War and to allay the threat of nuclear holocaust. ＜i＞The Star Wars Enigma＜/i＞ tells this dramatic story.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Von technisierten Menschen und vermenschlichter Technik. Zum Verh?ltnis von Gesellschaft und technologischer Entwicklung in STAR WARS【電子書籍】[ Isabella Preuer ]

＜p＞Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2013 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Kultur, Technik und V?lker, Note: 1,0, Alpen-Adria-Universit?t Klagenfurt (Institut f?r Kultur-, Literatur- und Musikwissenschaften), Veranstaltung: Kultursoziologie, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: 'A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away': Vor ?ber 30 Jahren liefen die einleitenden Worte der Science-Fiction-Saga STAR WARS zum ersten Mal ?ber die Leinw?nde. Im Mittelpunkt des Films steht die Geschichte des Sklavenjungen Anakin Skywalker und seine Verwandlung in Darth Vader, einen der gr??ten Schurken der Filmgeschichte. Neben der reinen Unterhaltung besch?ftigt sich die Saga jedoch auch mit dem Verh?ltnis zwischen Mensch und Technik und zeigt deutliche Parallelen zur Realit?t. In der vorliegenden Arbeit soll nun soziologisches Technikverst?ndnis mit dem des Science-Fiction-Filmes verbunden werden und anhand des Beispiels STAR WARS das Verh?ltnis von Mensch und Technik sowie die steigende Technisierung der Gesellschaft n?her betrachtet werden. Zun?chst wird der Begriff der Technik erl?utert und definiert (Kapitel 2), um anschlie?end verschiedene Ans?tze der Techniksoziologie n?her beschreiben zu k?nnen. Ausgehend von Arnold Gehlens fr?her Auffassung des Menschen als 'M?ngelwesen', das auf technische Hilfsmittel angewiesen ist, werden auch neuere Positionen der Techniksoziologie diskutiert, die die Handlungstr?gerschaft der Technik betonen. Durch eine Einf?hrung in das Science-Fiction-Genre und STAR WARS soll eine Verbindung vom technischen Verst?ndnis in Realit?t und Fiktion gezeigt werden (Kapitel 3). Der empirische Teil der Arbeit baut anschlie?end auf neueren Ans?tzen der Techniksoziologie auf und analysiert das Verh?ltnis von Mensch und Technik in STAR WARS. N?her betrachtet werden einerseits die Technisierung des Menschen (Kapitel 4), andererseits die Vermenschlichung der Technik (Kapitel 5). Abschlie?end soll gekl?rt werden, inwiefern STAR WARS als Projektion moderner Technik gesehen werden kann - auch wenn unsere Wirklichkeit noch nicht von Droiden, Klonen und Cyborgs besetzt ist.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Empire Triumphant Race, Religion and Rebellion in the Star Wars Films【電子書籍】[ Kevin J. Wetmore, , Jr. ]

＜p＞George Lucas's first Star Wars trilogy shows the influences of its era; Cold War tension is evident in its theme of rebellion against totalitarianism. Recent entries in the Star Wars saga--＜em＞The Phantom Menace＜/em＞ (1999) and ＜em＞Attack of the Clones＜/em＞ (2002)--are much more concerned with evil corporations, terrorists, and the corruption of the political process. Each film is influenced by the times in which it was released, but also by cultural subtexts and by other films that had direct and indirect effects on Lucas as writer, producer, and director.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This work focuses on all six ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ films. The first topic of this multifaceted examination is how the films use the language of colonialism ("The" Rebellion, "The" Empire) to emphasize the idea of imperialism. Next the author looks at how Asian influences--including religious undertones from Taoism and Buddhism and the works of Kurosawa and other Asian filmmakers--provide a subtext for much of the action. Next the discussion turns to the representation of people of color in the ＜em＞Star Wars＜/em＞ universe, and how other ethnicities are represented overall, particularly through the literalization of the word "aliens." These topics of discussion provide for penetrating conclusions about Lucas's films and how they represent race, religion, and rebellion.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Que vaut l’?p?e de la Justice face ? un sabre laser ou ? un tir de pistolet blaster ? Le juriste n’appara?trait-il pas incongru au milieu des Wookies ou des Gungans ? D?cid?ment, les mondes d?peints dans Star Wars semblent de prime abord ?trangers au Droit. Et pourtant… ? la r?flexion, les Jedi, comme les Sith, n’ont-ils pas un Code ? La destruction de plan?te par l’utilisation d’?toile de la Mort ne pourrait-elle constituer un crime contre l’humanit? ? Le Droit n’a-t-il pas quelque chose ? dire du baiser incestueux des jumeaux Skywalker ? Ce sont l? autant de questions ? parmi bien d’autres ? qui en ces pages trouvent une r?ponse argument?e. Compos? d’une vingtaine de contributions, cet ouvrage s’attache ainsi ? d?crypter les ressorts juridiques de l’univers de Star Wars, contribuant ? prouver que m?me dans une galaxie lointaine, tr?s lointaine, le Droit est pr?sent.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Viel zu lernen du noch hast Star Wars und die Philosophie【電子書籍】

＜p＞?ber ≪Star Wars≫ l?sst sich wunderbar philosophieren: Hat Luke Skywalker einen ?dipuskomplex? Ist der Jedi-Orden eine postmoderne Religion? War Heidegger ein Sith-Lord? Und wie um alles in der Welt kann man Wookies verstehen? Dieses Buch versammelt philosophische, kulturhistorische und politische Analysen: von der durchkomponierten Mythologie der ersten drei Filme bis zu den archetypischen Familienkonstellationen der Skywalkers; von der r?tselhaften ≪Force≫ bis zum ambivalenten Umgang mit der ≪hellen≫ und ≪dunklen≫ Seite; vom Einsatz politischer Metaphorik und Bildsprache bis hin zur Frage nach der Ordnung der Gesellschaft in Klassen und Geschlechter.＜br /＞ Das Buch zeigt, wie viel Philosophie in der Popul?rkultur steckt und wie viel Spa? es machen kann, mit ≪Star Wars≫ ?ber Heidegger, Augustinus, Lacan, den Taoismus, Wittgenstein, den Kapitalismus oder die Gender Studies nachzudenken. Denn es ist ja ohne Zweifel so, dass kaum etwas so sehr zum Denken anregt wie ein ordentliches Weltraumm?rchen.＜br /＞ Mit Beitr?gen von: J?rn Ahrens, Julian Baggini, Yves Bossart, Pierre Cassou-Nogu?s, Wolfram Eilenberger, Tristan Garcia, Thomas Groh, Linus Hauser, Alexandre Lacroix, Alexis Lavis, Clotilde Leguil, Harald Lesch, Nils Markwardt, Baptiste Morizot, Tobie Nathan, Catherine Newmark, Tom??
