Form vs. Otherness relationship

    Question:

     

    The purpose of this final inter-textual assignment is to work out some central ‘profiles’ on the Form v. Otherness relation. A ‘profile’ in this case means a comparison of two thinkers on important facets of it in terms of issues revolving around art/artistry, knowledge, and subjectivity. Looking back over the course readings, what are three pivotal profiles on the Form vs. Otherness relationship, how should they be understood, and what in your opinion should they teach us about the life of knowledge and art today? Each profile would be a comparison between two thinkers; so you would cover a total of six thinkers (feel free to include more should that help draw out important issues). Argue for the best way to identify and interpret these profiles, say what we should notice about the links/transitions between them, and then conclude by saying where they leave us per the Form vs. Otherness tension in relation to the arts and imagination today.

     

    In some cases you may find yourself returning to your prior interpretations of texts, which is good. Feel free to work with those, but don’t repeat your writing from prior assignments.
