Beskrivelse
This book analyzes the exile ontology of Spanish philosopher Maria Zambrano (1904-1991). Karolina Enquist Kallgren connects Zambrano's lived exile and political engagement with the Spanish Civil War to her poetic reason, and argues that Zambrano developed a theory of expressive subjectivity that combined embodiment with the expressive creativity of the human mind. The analysis of recurring literary figures and concepts-such as new materialism, the confession, image, the ruin, the heart, and awakening- show how a comprehensive argument runs as a thread through her works. Further, this book situates Zambrano's thought in a larger European philosophical context by showing how Zambrano's poetic reason was directly related to her unconventional exile readings of Martin Heidegger, Aristotle, Immanuel Kant, and Xavier Zubiri, among others.
