Overview

John McCumber asserts that the true target of philosophical liberation is to break the structures of domination that have been encoded in western civilization. Because of the emancipatory nature of their thought, Derrida, Foucault, Habermas and Rorty challenge domination, but they do not see their challenge clearly and it does not rise to the level of conscious critique in their writings. Using Nietzsche's writings on ""the great liberation"" as a starting point, McCumber captures the valuable, but elusive insights on these thinkers and places them into the larger, pluralistic movement toward philosophical freedom. ""The Potter's Art"" discusses and illustrates the work of modern masters of traditional ceramics from Bangladesh, Sweden, various parts of the United States, Turkey and Japan. It should appeal to anyone interested in pottery and the study of folklore and folk art.
