The Contours and Partitions of Philosophy 285 Concluding Considerations and Questions 321 v Acknowledgements Many of the shards and fragments of ideas expressed in this work trace back to my earliest encounters, even before my university studies, with that enterprise called ‘Philosophy’. However, these didn’t begin forming a recog- nizable assemblage until I became the director of the Philosophy Colloquium in my university’s Joint Doctoral Program. The Colloquium was typically held during the snowy Colorado Winter quarter, met in my ‘back cabin’ (well warmed by both the fire and good spirits), and usually consisted of no more than about a half dozen participants. It was mainly in preparing for and coordinating those meetings, and thanks to the intellectual honesty and generosity of now several ‘generations’ of those doctoral students, that this work assumed its present form. It is theirs almost as much as it is my own, and the blame for any errors or lapses of judgment that one may find in it I ascribe to them for not remaining at the meetings late enough, sharing one more round, and fully convincing me of the faults in my thinking. I would like especially to thank Drs. Rob Manzinger, Evgeny Pavlov, Jeff Scholes, and David Hale for, at different stages, serving as the Colloquium’s ring- leaders and provocateurs. Special gratitude goes to Jared Nieft, who patient- ly read and discussed the work with me as it was being written over about a two-year period. Also, much gratitude goes to my past and present GTAs, whose able assistance with my undergraduate teaching chores gave me a bit more time for research and writing. Besides such active collaborators and critics, completing projects like this also tends to require fairly complex support networks. The University of Denver and especially my colleagues in its Department of Philosophy have long provided a stable, congenial, creative, and blessedly conflict-free environment. Over the years, I have especially benefited from (and thor- oughly enjoyed) collaborative teaching ventures with Robert D. Richardson (English Literature), M. E. Warlick (Art History), Carl Raschke (Religious Studies), and Naomi Reshotko (Philosophy, and the World’s Greatest Chair!) During my many stays in Germany, Achim Koeddermann and his won- derful family have provided a ‘home away from home,’ as has William Desmond and his family in Belgium. vii viii What is Philosophy? My own household has born much of the brunt of the sort of absence, incon- sideration, and occasional crankiness that accompanies the tunnel-vision necessary to complete a lengthy writing project. My extended household includes my partner Cheryl Ward, our twin daughters Tanya and Jennifer, Linda Kalyris, Stan Weddle, assorted Celtic musicians, and trans-species members Biggie (who attended more Philosophy Colloquium meetings than any student!), M-Cat, Midder, Macy, Hobbes, Ringo, and Victoria. I sin- cerely apologize to all for meals cooked for me that went cold, feline feeding times patiently awaited but delayed, and playtime curtailed while I was ‘out back’ working away. But do know that I’m ever grateful for all your patience, support, and love. Preface By the turn of the last century—which also ushered in a new millen- nium—the enterprise of philosophy had reached a point of what is called in chaos theory a ‘phase transition.’ It was, and thus far to some degree still remains, a point where things could follow, quite unpredictably, any one of a number of trajectories arising from the same set of ‘initial conditions.’ However, even if we can’t predict which trajectory it will follow, we can de- scribe, in broad terms, the trajectories (or sets of them) available to it. I see four possibilities. 1. Philosophy continues on as before—it would just continue doing what it’s doing at present without any fundamental change. 2. Philosophy is absorbed and some, if not all, of its former activities as- sumed by some other discipline—mathematics, linguistics, cognitive science, psychoanalysis, art, poetry, or even religion. 3. Philosophy, in effect, hits the reset button, returning to some earlier state regarded as preferable to its present state. 4. Philosophy redefines and reinvents itself in a way that would make clear its fundamental differences from other human enterprises as well as its continuities and breaks with its own history and its present ‘initial conditions.’ This work is both a wager on the fourth alternative as well as an effort to as- sist in promoting this outcome. (1) As always, the ‘initial conditions,’ that is, the features of philosophy’s present state, are sufficiently complex and sensitive to prevent any linear causal determination or predictive certainty. Still, we can cite a few of them. A particularly conspicuous feature of the present state of philosophy is the persistence of a broad division of its field into what are typically called the ‘analytic’ and ‘Continental’ approaches. The reasons for this divide are as much cultural and political as they are intellectual. To see that this phil- osophical division was not rooted in any real intellectual divide, one need only recall that both branches grew from Kant’s Critical Philosophy and that many of the seminal figures of the analytic tradition, like Frege, Mach, 11 12 What is Philosophy? Meinong, Wittgenstein, and Carnap, were fully formed products of the in- tellectual culture of the Continent. It is also the case that Continental phi- losophy would not have been defined in the way it came to be without its em- brace and extension in the Anglophone world, especially after the Second World War. So, in some respects, attempts to bridge the gap between ana- lytic and Continental philosophy from either side often end up in a situation of ‘I met the other, and the other is me.’ Still, there has been an historically efficacious difference that had as its own initial condition the last great phase transition in philosophy: Kant’s ‘Copernican Revolution in philosophy.’ Kant described his philosophical view as ‘transcendental idealism.’ Very roughly put, this involved two the- ses. One, the idealism part, asserted that human consciousness or subjectiv- ity was the ultimate source of the structures constituting the ‘world.’ The other, the transcendental aspect, was that these structures were ‘necessary and universal’ for all experience and knowledge. We might, then, broadly say that the Continental trajectory following from Kant tended to assume as its foundation and starting-point consciousness or subjectivity, albeit in forms much more complex and ramified than that found in Kant, allow- ing questions about necessity and universality to assume their place in rela- tion to this. The analytic tradition, by contrast, tended to take necessity and universality, whether interpreted in terms of logical or scientific ‘laws,’ as its primary concern and approached consciousness or subjectivity (when it did at all) in these terms. This difference in basic assumptions and approaches was already in full play by the beginning of the 20th century and manifested itself most dra- matically in the controversies between phenomenology (and its existentialist offshoots) and positivism, with American pragmatism (especially in Peirce and James), in a sense, splitting the difference.

Augustus Durham Department of English Duke University Date:_______________________ Approved: ___________________________ Tsitsi Jaji, Supervisor ___________________________ Maurice Wallace ___________________________ Nathaniel Mackey ___________________________ Priscilla Wald An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English in the Graduate School of Duke University 2018 i v Copyright by I. Augustus Durham 2018 Abstract This dissertation draws on Sigmund Freud’s essay “Mourning and Melancholia” (1917) to track melancholy and genius in black letters, culture, and history from the nineteenth century to the contemporary moment; it contends that melancholy is a catalyst for genius, and that genius is a signifier of the maternal. Throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, Freud prefigures an array of discourses in black studies; one mode of interrogation occurs with relation to his aforementioned essay. Some African American literature, such as Richard Wright’s Black Boy, invokes this work indirectly, just as theoretical texts, like Joseph Winters’s Hope Draped in Black: Race, Melancholy, and the Agony of Progress, have direct engagement. Nevertheless, Freud’s attendance to mourning and melancholia is pertinent.

Dr. Sandoz, who introduced me to Eric Voegelin's work, deserves special commendation for his tireless-work in promoting Voegelin's thought. His dedication in this endeavor has made my work in the following pages much easier than it might have been otherwise. I would be remiss if I did not include among my benefactors at LSU Professor Harry Mokeba who was instrumental in showing me the importance of comparative political study. In this vein I should add Dr. Sankaran Krishna who has continued to foster my interest in comparative political analysis during my graduate studies in Hawai'i. I extend my utmost gratitude to my committee, which included Professors Manfred Henningsen, James Dator and Louis Herman.

Mastitis is a widespread disease of dairy cows. Diagnostic tests were performed to study the extent of mastitis spread in lactating cows. The main reason for the destruction of dairy cows with mastitis is not the benign feeding affected by mold fungi. Tests of feeds were selected to detect the level of contamination by microorganisms.
