Did any of you read this book? What did you think of it? I had trouble making sense of it. Zizek went into a lot of topics, but I'm not sure how all of those topics interact with each other.

Somebody say Žižek?

Latest Video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtjENQpdcSw

Žižek talks about Europe's historical disposition towards fascism.

He talks about the concepts and metaphors present in his books during these speeches. I don't see the difference.

If he didn't speak so much on youtube I would link exerts from his books/articles instead. (which i sometimes do).

You said yourself it doesn't matter what medium you receive the words the words themselves are all that matter.

Cool bros, I take it you've never had to sit through a seminar where that one jackass turns up not having read the text but this doesn't stop him from asking useless, general questions and making obvious statements that everyone in the thread knows is simply to mask a lack of what everyone else is talking about?

No? You've never experienced that?

I thought you liked post-modernism.

Also, I have read Žižek, I doubt many others here have. Youtube videos are a good way of letting people engage in the discussion quickly, a talent of Žižek's is being able to do this through speech.

whatever man, my relationship with ideas is DIALECTIC

i don't need 120 pages of exploration to engage with a thesis. whatever can be said can be said clearly, as some dude once said.

okay you're right

YEah, I often wonder why non-fiction writers, such as philosophers write such long books. Why don't they just summarize their work in say 30 pages and save everyone the hassle of reading the whole goddamn thing. Amirite?

>>1822652

of course i'm not saying that philosophy is unreasonably obtuse

I'm saying that for the purposes of discussion on this image board, to allow people who haven't heard much about Žižek, his online seminars (which often stretch on for 2 hours) are a great way to grasp the fundamentals of his ideas and partake and gain from his discussion
