This open issue con- tinues Janus Head’s tradition of bringing together thought from across disciplines, inviting conversation and, perhaps, revealing the indistinctness of boundaries between philosophy, poetry, art, literature, and psychology. Thank you for keeping this conversation going. It is an honor to introduce myself as a new associate editor of the journal. I am a doctoral candidate in Duquesne University’s psychology program and continue the tradition of Duquesne’s involvement with the journal that began with its inception twelve years ago. My own work involves re- vealing the ambiguity of presumed boundaries—in my paper in this issue, boundaries between the human and the technological, and in my current dissertation work, between flesh and artifice. My educational background is interdisciplinary; I attended St. John’s College in Annapolis, MD, where I read across all seven liberal arts the books that shaped the Western world. At Duquesne, inspired by the psychology department’s collective interest in illuminating human experience (including the range and diversity of hu- man experience), I combined psychology with women and gender studies. I dedicate myself to Janus Head out of appreciation for its shared goal of presenting the human as a category with a broad range of interpretations. Janus Head has exciting open and special issues underway right now. Our next issue will be a special issue with the theme “Corpse.” We have just released a call for papers for our next special issue, a guest-edited volume on feminist phenomenology. In the meantime, two open issues await their release. As always, we welcome your contributions and your feedback. Your voice is integral to the journal’s ongoing success. We hope you enjoy this issue, and again, thank you! Sincerely, Amy E. Taylor Janus Head, 12(1), Copyright © 2011 by Trivium Publications, Pittsburgh, PA All rights reserved. Printed in the United States of America Souling Robert Gibbons Janus Head could possibly be credited with saving a person’s life. Such is the nature of conjecture in language. At the beginning of this issue 1 of Volume 12, the authors Rolf and Elsa von Eckartsberg propose that, “Language can accomplish immortality.” Early on in its existence as a journal devoted to the interdisciplinary endeavors of Literature, Continental Phi- losophy, Phenomenological Psychology, and the Arts, Janus Head’s contents portrayed a myriad of complex subject matter and writing style, which if one were to attempt to read through its labyrinthine paths valued secrets could be garnered. At least that was the case for me more than ten years ago, even before then Poetry Editor, Claire Barbetti, generously published my work in its pages in 2001. Three years later Claire offered me the position she left in order to pursue other avenues in academia. It’s been my honor to solicit work from Robert Bly, Liz Bradfield, Andrei Codrescu, Clayton Eshleman, Richard Hoffman, Fanny Howe, Sidney Goldfarb, and Pattiann Rogers, translations of Cristian Aliaga, Paul Celan, Pablo Neruda, Tomas Tranströmer, and César Vallejo, along with acceptances from less well-known writers of no-less valuable work. The current issue staggered to the finish line. Few literary journals outlive the inevitable inertia of grueling publication demands, deadlines, and commitments. Some of those which have run their course made an impact during their time, and afterward, for readers and writers alike. Think of Black Mountain Review, The Dial, Origin, Sulfur, Yugen, etc. Often these journals depend on a small coterie of diligent, dedicated enthusiasts. As it now stands, Janus Head can credit its survival to the staunch, creative will of Brent Dean Robbins, along with added contributions by Manager, April Robbins, and newly appointed Associate Editors, Sean Connolly and Amy Taylor. I am thankful Brent decided to continue publishing. The decision to go on was probably as difficult as getting a journal of this quality out online and in print biannually. This issue gives us a chance to publish the work of William Heyen, whose book, A Poetics of Hiroshima, as I have written elsewhere, is in my opinion the best book of poetry written in the past decade. At the same time Jerome Rothenberg has given us a large sheaf of brilliant poems representa- tive of his vast historical take on the world. Mr. Rothenberg’s own editorial Janus Head, 12(1), Copyright © 2011 by Trivium Publications, Pittsburgh, PA All rights reserved. Printed in the United States of America Janus Head 7 work has been nothing short of monumental, what with both volumes of Poems for the Millennium, co-edited with Pierre Joris, a veritable encyclopedic analysis of modern/postmodern poetry worldwide. The editors’ annotations add up to some of the most insightful, risk-taking criticism of the genre ever compiled. It’s the most comprehensive anthology of its kind since America a Prophesy, which he edited with George Quasha in 1973. Over forty years ago Mr. Rothenberg showed me what poetry can do as he chanted, played ancient instruments, and read to an astonished audience in Cambridge. As I peruse the current issue I know I will return often to the von Eckartsbergs’ article concerning the “democratization of fame” and narra- tive activity devoted to the service of spiritual immortality. Their article is counterpoint to Michael Siporia’s analysis of Hesse’s Steppenwolf, in which the hero is saved by immortals such as Goethe and Mozart led by the Femi- nine portrayed by Hermine, a character Siporia sees “akin in her spirituality to the prostitutes in Dostoyevsky.” I’m intrigued by Siporia’s point that the spontaneity of the Jazz Club in the novel will offer the Steppenwolf the milieu for possible redemption, reminding me of Barthes’ comment, “… man’s spontaneity is his culture…” There’s a fine mesh going on in the articles Robbins has chosen here between connections and juxtapositions, where the hero of the Hesse novel defaults toward his razor as a Nietzschean alternative, while Kontoulis & Kitis examine the abandonment of language in DeLillo’s The Body Artist, where at the center of the novel a suicide is dealt with by performance art and language reduced to “autistic repetitiveness and involution,” “echolalia,” or a “barely semiotic language.” An experiment in writing close to Marguerite Duras giving silence a voice, the body alone having its say.

  • Enacting Democracy: Deliberation, Agonism, and the Empty Place of Political Action
    Enacting democracy: Deliberation, agonism, and the empty place of political action Erin Pineda1 Department of Political Science, Yale University [email protected] Abstract Despite the celebrated place of political action – and in particular, the kinds of contentious collective action characterized by protest – in the history of modern democracy, it is notably absent in recent deliberative and agonist theorizing. In the midst of a debate centered on the dynamics of conflict, consensus, disagreement, diversity, and popular sovereignty in a democracy, a curiously empty place has opened up between the two sides: while the political action of social movements and collectivities operates as an important referent for both deliberative democrats and their agonist critics, both have tended to stop short of theorizing the ways social movements act to provoke, promote, and protest particular forms and modes of our shared public and democratic life. This paper argues that contentious, collective political action, though involving both deliberative and agonistic elements, is not well-captured by either theory. A better understanding of the dynamics of political action -- both descriptively and normatively -- is crucial to any understanding of the kinds of social and democratic changes valued by both deliberative democrats and agonists. Introduction In some ways, the most potent image of the history of democracy is that of the people, filling the streets or the public square, engaged in the contentious, collective act of protest. From a bloody, revolutionary baptism at the Bastille to more recent events – revolutionary, reformist, or somewhere in between – in Tahrir Square, Gezi Park, and dozens of “Occupy” sites across the U.S., the particular forms of political action undertaken by citizens in assembly, organized dissent, and collective demonstration have proven a vital part not only of foundings (and re-foundings), but have served as incomparable mechanisms for the maintenance, reform, revitalization, disruption and transformation of political practices and institutions.

  • Neoliberal and Militarised Post-Politics: Four Social Regimes, Four Affects and Radical Politics Today Ali Rıza Taşkale Thesis
    Neoliberal and Militarised Post-Politics: Four Social Regimes, Four Affects and Radical Politics Today Ali Rıza Taşkale Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Geography, The University of Sheffield February 2013 ii Abstract This dissertation theorises the depoliticised conditions of late capitalism through what I call a ‘neoliberal and militarised post-politics.’ It argues that ours is a neoliberal and militarised post-political society that cannot imagine disruptive revolutionary events. The dissertation addresses key debates on governmental social regimes of neoliberal post-politics, the inseparability of neoliberalism and war/militarism, and the historical/geographical unevenness of global capitalism. In so doing, it offers an original topological analysis that makes the following critical interventions: an exploration of how the much-discussed social regimes of sovereignty, discipline and control relate to each other in the production of neoliberal governmentality; an analysis of the affective logic each regime entails and how they inter-relate; a proposal for a fourth regime, ‘terrorism’, and a theorisation of its associated affect, ‘spite.’ Finally, radical critique as divine violence is set against neoliberal and militarised post-politics. iii iv Acknowledgements Special thanks are due here to Eric Olund, my primary supervisor, for his patience and guidance as well as constant encouragement and support through the travails of writing and completing the dissertation. Thanks are also due to Jessica Dubow, my second supervisor, for her exemplary readings and invaluable comments on the chapters which now make up this dissertation. The support I have received from Benjamin Hennig and Lukáš Makovický throughout the dissertation has, of course, been inestimable.

  • Agonism Contra Liberalism
    Agonistic Critiques of Liberalism: Perfection and Emancipation Thomas Fossen1 Utrecht University Published in Contemporary Political Theory, 2008, 7, (376–394) http://www.palgrave-journals.com/cpt/journal/v7/n4/abs/cpt200815a.html Abstract: Agonism is a political theory that places contestation at the heart of politics. Agonistic theorists charge liberal theory with a depoliticization of pluralism through an excessive focus on consensus. This paper examines the agonistic critiques of liberalism from a normative perspective. I argue that by itself the argument from pluralism is not sufficient to support an agonistic account of politics, but points to further normative commitments. Analyzing the work of Mouffe, Honig, Connolly, and Owen, I identify two normative currents of agonistic theory: emancipatory agonism, aimed at challenging violence and exclusion, and perfectionist agonism, aimed at the cultivation of nobility. From a normative perspective the former presents an internal challenge to liberalism, while the latter constitutes an external challenge to liberalism by providing a competing account of the ends of politics. Recognition of the distinction between emancipatory and perfectionist agonism is crucial in assessing the purchase of agonistic critiques of liberalism. Furthermore, this analysis draws us beyond the simple opposition between contestation and consensus. It is not simply a question of valuing genuine pluralism and therefore criticizing consensus; rather the question comes to be: what are the ends of politics? Introduction Agonism can be defined as a political theory that does not place any institutions, procedures, principles, or values beyond political contestation; that precludes final closure on any question. In doing so, it challenges some of the fundamental commitments of the liberal paradigm as embodied in political liberalism and deliberative democracy, most fundamentally the idea that the legitimacy of a political regime relies on a consensus among rational or reasonable citizens.

    Ahead of Their Time 2 Ahead of Their Time When I discovered the inspirational story of the 1951 University of San Francisco Dons football team -- what some people refer to as "the best team you never heard of" -- I wanted to share it with kids, parents, and teachers so they could be reminded that sports participation can mean a lot more than getting whatever you can for yourself. Notwithstanding their prowess on the football field, the true greatness of the '51 Dons is their honor, integrity, and esprit de corps.
