#kristeva

The only thing I have ever contributed to an Ergo Proxy fandom were two sketches on a blackboard made around 4 years ago. Which is a shame because this anime is an absolute pinnacle of its genre and has had my undying loyalty since my very first view of it (for more then 10 years by this point).

Here you can see an Entourage-type AutoReiv called Kristeva. An android-companion of Raul Creed, Director-General of the Citizen Security Bureau. The development of this duo dynamic was an intriguing one to observe and both of these characters are certainly one of my personal favorites from that amazing anime.

P.S. This is sort of a mixed media art. You can see an original image I drew on paper under the cut. Angle the photo was taken under is not the best one but oh well, it was done in order to show a scale of actual canvas I am working with.

Kristeva ile birlikte Fransız feminist felsefesinin önemli isimlerinden birisi olan Luce Irigaray, psikanalizci olmasının da etkisiyle felsefe düşüncelerinde psikanalizden özellikle de Lacancı yaklaşımdan bir çatı oluşturmuştur.

İlgili olduğu disiplinler olan felsefe ve psikanaliz hakkındaki genel eleştirisi sahip oldukları ataerkil yapı hakkındadır. Ona göre; ataerkil yapı, erkek hegomanyasıdır ve tek cinscilikten oluşur. Bu yapıdan kurtulabilmek için kadınların yeni bir dil ve söylem gereksinimine ihtiyacı vardır. Bu dilin, kadınları erilleştirebileceğine değinir (mimesis). Irigaray mimesis kavramı ışığında; kadın, kadın gibi değil kadın olarak konuşmalıdır der. Bunun olabilmesi için de ataerkil toplum yapısından kopmuş, erillikten dönüştürülmüş özgün bir kadın formuna gerek vardır yani dişil öznelliğe...

This is a mammoth paper I wrote for a special reading course over the summer. I wanted to explore what the point of “edgy” spiritual practice might actually be. Why the blood, the blasphemy, the sex magic, the filth? It’s not an easy question to answer, but I feel good about the start I made. Includes footnotes and appendices. Introduction No religion is more associated with transgression than…
