A New York Times BestsellerIn an ancient churchyard just outside Paris, archeologists uncover an ancient tomb -- certain they have stumbled onto the find of the century. But something goes very wrong as the tomb is opened. Something too frightening to imagine . . . and too terrible to utter. For American visitor Tara Mason, the romantic city of her dreams has suddenly turned sinister. For she has heard the blood-curdling screams in the churchyard -- and knows that she must run away -- from the powerful stranger chasing after her . . . and from a legendary, sensual predator who stalks the nig

The Realm of Rhetoric is an ideal instruction medium for students approaching theories of informal argumentation for the first time. "The Realm of Rhetoric sets out the bare bones of Perelmans map of human persuasion, including specific chapters on arguments from analogy, metaphor, the structure of reality, and so-called quasi-logical arguments. In all these areas, hes wonderfully concrete and clear." The Village Voice "One cannot help but admire and learn from [Perelmans] clear, comprehensive, and wise thinking on argumentation, his spare yet never arid prose, and the quiet elegan

The Realm of Reason develops a new, general theory of what it is for a thinker to be entitled to form a given belief. The theory locates entitlement in the nexus of relations between truth, content, and understanding. Peacocke formulates three principles of rationalism that articulate this conception. The principles imply that all entitlement has a component that is justificationally independent of experience. The resulting position is thus a form of rationalism, generalized to all kinds of content.To show how these principles are realized in specific domains, Peacocke applies the theory in de

In a major revision of feminist-psychoanalytic theories of film pleasure and sexual difference, Studlar’s close textual analysis of the six Paramount films directed by Josef von Sternberg and starring Marlene Dietrich probes the source of their visual and psychological complexity. Borrowing from Gilles Deleuze’s psychoanalytic-literary approach, Studlar shows how masochism extends beyond the clinical realm, into the arena of artistic form, language, and production of pleasure. The author’s examination of the von Sternberg/Dietrich collaborations shows how these films, with t

The Realm of Reason is a manifesto for a new rationalism in philosophy. Christopher Peacocke develops an original theory of what makes a thinker entitled to form a given belief. The theory is articulated in three principles of rationalism, which together imply that all entitlement has an element that is independent of experience. Peacocke elaborates this rationalism in detail for the classical issues of perceptual knowledge, induction, and the status of moral thought. His new generalized approach to epistemology has applications throughout philosophy, and it will interest all concerned with kn
