Alienation

Christopher Bradd · 2018

From the Christian doctrine of original sin, through G. W. F. Hegel’s conception of freedom, and the situated subject of existentialist thought in the wake of Friedrich Nietzsche’s pronouncement that "God is dead," Western experiences of alienation can be understood as taking three basic forms: the individual’s estrangement from nature, self, and society. The loss of established values, no less than the burdens of tradition, have each been held responsible for widespread experiences of dislocation within industrial society, where nature has come to appear as either a resource to be exploited or as a force of decay. For Karl Marx, alienation is a result of historically specific social and economic contradictions characterizing capitalist society; specifically, it results from the exploitative conditions estranging workers from the means of production, the products of their labor, their fellow workers, and ultimately, themselves. Often associated with a feeling of forced passivity, alienation became a primary experience and critical concept for many modernists. Fractured by the contradictions manifest in Western societies, the individual appears as a fragmented subject of experience. Sigmund Freud argued that consciousness is estranged from itself, maintaining an unconscious reserve of repressed traumatic experience that continues to unwittingly motivate our conscious decisions. Plumbing the depths of alienation, T. S. Eliot wrote: "I should have been a pair of ragged claws / Scuttling across the floors of silent seas."

Social Alienation

Angelos Koutsourakis · Edinburgh University Press eBooks · 2024

This Chapter opens with a discussion of modernism’s reaction against liberal individualism. I take this as a starting point to think about questions of individual alienation in two post-war films: Ottomar Domnick’s <italic>Jonas</italic> (1957) and Hiroshi Teshigahara’s <italic>他人の顔‎ (The Face of Another</italic>, 1966). My discussion of Domnick’s film starts with issues of post-war repression and urban alienation, which are subsequently linked with <italic>Vergangenheitsbewältigung</italic> (coming to terms with the past); this is followed by a discussion of Kōbō Abe’s essays on Kafka and his call for bridging the gap between literature and the audio-visual arts. I conclude with a discussion of the adaptation of his novel <italic>The Face of Another</italic> by Hiroshi Teshigahara (script written by Abe). The analysis of the film links questions of individual alienation and the historical trauma of Hiroshima, which is highlighted in the film, although it holds a marginal role in the source text. Especially significant for the analysis of these films is the work of Georg Simmel on the alienating psychological conditions produced by the modern metropolis

Natural Alienation

Posvar, Rafael · SUNY Digital Repository Support (State University of New York System) · 2023

The world we live in today has forced a strange relationship between humans and the natural world. Humans procure nature to fit the needs of the masses, sometimes disregarding ethics in strange and alien ways. There is a constant strain between our dependency on mother nature and the egocentric relationship we share with her. As human beings, we tell ourselves that certain things are acceptable and sustainable but there are often two sides to the same coin. We live in a world with a wide variety of inhabitants. Earth is home to 7.8 billion humans, between 2.5 and 30 million different species, 195 countries, five climate regions, but only two kinds of environment: the geographical and the man-made.

Alienation Effects

Branislav Jakovljevic · Directory of Open access Books (OAPEN Foundation) · 2016

Exciting new scholarship has been emerging as performance studies scholars begin to turn their attention to the performance of politics, nationhood, and jurisprudence. Branislav Jakovljevic’s project on the history and eventual demise of the former Yugoslavia demonstrates how fruitful this approach can be. Jakovljevic considers the concept of theatricality as central to understanding the events that took place in Yugoslavia. He examines the country’s trials, state ceremonies and festivals, army maneuvers, propaganda, and pop culture as “rehearsals and temporary enactments of an ideologically formulated future.” His first chapter reveals the surrealist, avant-garde origins of key members of the Yugoslav bureaucracy after WWII, suggesting that those connections helped the culture of socialist Yugoslavia become a performance-centered culture. Continuing to explore the relationship between the political avant-garde and the artistic avant-garde, he looks at the spectacle of student demonstrations in Belgrade in 1968, and, in their aftermath, the rise of performance art in the country. The third chapter (included here) zeros in on the various political performances of Slobodan Milosevic, including his courtroom testimony at the ICTY, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. The fourth chapter discusses the “Peter Handke Affair,” when the Austrian playwright had a major prize revoked after he attended Milosevic’s funeral and recited a poem he had written in Milosevic’s honor.
