The hermit's and the priest's injustices: reading Cormac Mccarthy's The crossing with Heidegger and Anaximander -- Art, architecture, violence: Daniel Libeskind's Jewish Museum Berlin -- When the given is gone: from the Black Forest to Berlin and back via Wim Wenders' Der Himmel Über Berlin |
| Summary |
'The Crossing' by Cormac McCarthy, the Jewish Museum Berlin by Daniel Libeskind, and 'Wings of Desire' by Wim Wenders call on us to face up to, then reflect upon the phenomena of loss, displacement, violence, witnessing, mortality, and responsibility. The way these saturated, overwhelming phenomena come to us requires close and patient focus if we are to adequately receive them in their particularity and depth |
