Reseña del libro "Transcendence by Perspective: Meditations on and with Kenneth Burke (en Inglés)"

TRANSCENDENCE BY PERSPECTIVE: MEDITATIONS ON AND WITH KENNETH BURKE represents a fresh attempt to think with Kenneth Burke regarding the relationship between human symbolicity and social change. The essays, by both prominent and up-and-coming young scholars, are organized around the three conceptions of transcendence that, the editor argues, can be found in Burke's body of work: transcendence as a curative method; transcendence as a dialectical process; and transcendence as our human condition. The first, from Burke's earliest works, reflects an attempt to resolve conflicts between opposing principles, beliefs, or persons by adopting a "higher" point of view. The second, corresponding to much of Burke's work from the 1940s and 1950s, represents Burke's efforts to envision a dialectical process that would result not simply in the resolution of individual conflicts, but the reordering of the frustrating stalemate of entrenched social oppositions. The third form, representing Burke's final decades of work, positions transcendence as peculiar to the human symbolic condition-and as the source of our temptation to treat the "here and now" in terms of some greater "beyond." Going beyond this interpretation of Burkean texts, however, the chapters apply these three notions of transcendence to the analysis of such topics as race in America, President Obama, Hilary Clinton's health care reform efforts, Virginia's apology for slavery, British colonialism, Dr. Phil, aesthetics, and industrial agriculture. Taken together, the volume indicates new directions for Burkean scholarship on the critical appreciation of our lives as embodied symbol-users, and of the "Human Barnyard" as a whole.
