David Pearce

David Pearce is a British philosopher of the negative utilitarian school of ethics. He believes and promotes the idea that there exists a strong ethical imperative for humans to work towards the abolition of suffering in all sentient life. His book-length internet manifesto The Hedonistic Imperative[1] details how he believes the abolition of suffering can be accomplished through “paradise engineering”. A transhumanist and a vegan, Pearce also calls for the elimination of cruelty to animals. Among his websites, there are many devoted to the plight of animals. In The Hedonistic Imperative, Pearce outlines how technologies such as genetic engineering, nanotechnology, pharmacology, and neurosurgery could potentially converge to eliminate all forms of unpleasant experience in human life and produce a posthuman civilization.

AGAR, ISMAELE E MAOMETTO (E L'ISLAM)

Alla Mecca il profeta preferito dai musulmani era Mosè; a Medina il suo posto fu preso da Abramo, e Maometto trovò ottime risposte da opporre alle critiche degli ebrei:lui e i suoi musulmani erano tornati allo spirito più puro della fede (hanifiyya) proprio di quegli uomini che erano stati i primi muslim a sottomettersi a Dio. Non sappiamo fino a che punto Maometto abbia condiviso il desiderio di alcuni arabi degli insediamenti di tornare alla religione di Abramo. Nel Corano non viene fatta menzione della piccola setta meccana hanyfiyya;e la figura di Abramo prima delle sure medinesi fu oggetto di scarso interesse. Tuttavia, sembra che in questo periodo i musulmani chiamarono la loro fede hanifiyya, la vera religione di Abramo. Maometto aveva quindi trovato una via per confutare gli ebrei, senza abbandonare l'idea centrale della sottomissione a Dio anziché a una mera espressione terrena della fede, e la rivalutazione dell'importanza di Abramo gli permise di approfondire tale c...

-Heliopolis-Rivista- Delouze e Gattari...Petrongari

 a cura di Sandro Giovannini.Filosofia Estrema       Presentazione di UMBERTO PETRONGARI Il mio saggio (ancora inedito, e – forse provvisoriamente – intitolato Deleuze-Guattari, Sade-Masoch ), è soprattutto sull’ Anti-Edipo di Deleuze-Guattari , opera tale da contrapporsi alquanto nettamente alle posizioni di Masoch, e, soprattutto, a quelle di Sade: anche, quindi (e in particolare), a quelle che emergono dal suo breve scritto su ciò che deve intendersi per repubblicanesimo (scritto dedicato ad ogni francese dallo spirito illuministico-rivoluzionario, al fine di portarlo a pieno compimento).    Ma per quel che riguarda il masochismo, la sua interpretazione deleuziana, mi deriva dalla lettura di uno scritto (del 1967) che il filosofo francese dedica a Masoch. Ebbene, tale scritto, si occupa abbastanza approfonditamente anche del pensiero sadiano, anche allo scopo di chiarire le differenze tra l’uno e l’altro fenomeno (perlomeno a dire di Deleu...
