Opus Dei

An Archaeology of Duty

By: Giorgio Agamben

In this follow-up to The Kingdom and the Glory and The Highest Poverty, Agamben investigates the roots of our moral concept of duty in the theory and practice of Christian liturgy. Beginning with the New Testament and working through to late scholasticism and modern papal encyclicals, Agamben traces the Church's attempts to repeat Christ's unrepeatable sacrifice. Crucial here is the paradoxical figure of the priest, who becomes more and more a pure instrument of God's power, so that his own motives and character are entirely indifferent as long as he carries out his priestly duties. In modernity, Agamben argues, the Christian priest has become the model ethical subject. We see this above all in Kantian ethics. Contrasting the Christian and modern ontology of duty with the classical ontology of being, Agamben contends that Western philosophy has unfolded in the tension between the two. This latest installment in the study of Western political structures begun in Homo Sacer is a contribution to the study of liturgy, an extension of Nietzsche's genealogy of morals, and a reworking of Heidegger's history of Being.

Pilate and Jesus

Pilate and Jesus

By: Giorgio Agamben

The acclaimed philosopher’s penetrating analysis of Pontius Pilate offers provocative and original insight into Western conceptions of judgment and guilt. Pontius Pilate is one of the most enigmatic figures in Christian theology. The only non-Christian to be named in the Nicene Creed, he is presented as a cruel colonial overseer in secular accounts, as a conflicted judge convinced of Jesus’s innocence in the Gospels, and as either a pious Christian or a virtual demon in later Christian writings. Starting with Pilate’s role in the trial of Jesus, Giorgio Agamben investigates the function of legal judgment in Western society and the ways that such judgment requires us to adjudicate the competing claims of the eternal and the historical. Coming just as Agamben is bringing his decades-long Homo Sacer project to an end, Pilate and Jesus sheds considerable light on what is at stake in that series as a whole. At the same time, it stands on its own, perhaps more than any of the author’s recent works. It thus serves as a perfect starting place for readers who are curious about Agamben’s ideas and approach to philosophy.

The Man Without Content

By: Giorgio Agamben

In this book, one of Italy's most important and original contemporary philosophers considers the status of art in the modern era. He probes the meaning and historical consequences of the indefinite continuation of art in what Hegel called a "self-annulling" mode, in the process offering an imaginative reinterpretation of the history of aesthetics from Kant to Heidegger.

Le fondazioni sanitarie in Italia

By: Ugo Giorgio Pacifici Noja

Il CIRS – Centro Internazionale per la Ricerca Sociale nella scienza della salute presenta un nuovo volume sulle fondazioni italiane che si occupano di sanità: un’opera particolarmente innovativa, non trovandosi nulla di simile nel paesaggio scientifico italiano. Il libro contiene una prefazione del Magnifico Rettore dell’Università UniCamillus di Roma, Gianni Profita, una postfazione del Presidente dell’Ordine dei Medici di Roma, Antonio Magi, e risulta arricchita da un saggio critico del professor Ugo Giorgio Pacifici Noja. Per ogni fondazione sono indicati elementi quali l’anno di fondazione, i fondatori, la mission, gli organi istituzionali e il partenariato. Sono presenti l’indice analitico, dei nomi, delle fondazioni, dei luoghi e un siglario diretto a decriptare acronimi spesso misteriosi.
