Sophocles: Tragedy and the Limits of Knowledge
Brooklyn Institute for Social Research @ Online Classroom
What kinds of knowledge can be found in the fraught space between insight and taboo, between enlightenment and horror? In Sophocles’s Oedipus Tyrannus, once the truth Oedipus’ paternity has been revealed, the Chorus cries to its king: “I pity you, but I cannot look at you, though there’s much I want to ask and much to learn and much to see.” Continuously in Sophocles’s work, in the Oedipus plays and beyond, heroes and heroines tread...

The Death Drive: Psychoanalysis and Self-Destruction
Brooklyn Institute for Social Research @ Online Classroom
“The aim of all life,” observed Sigmund Freud in 1920, “is death.” A century later, the so-called Death Drive remains perhaps the most controversial, misunderstood, and ominously relevant of all the intellectual legacies of Freudian psychoanalysis. Freud first formulated the idea of a Death Drive (or Death Instinct) to grapple with nightmares both figurative and literal: The carnage of World War I, which represented a bloody rebuttal...

John Maynard Keynes: Beyond Economics
Brooklyn Institute for Social Research @ Online Classroom
John Maynard Keynes is rightly regarded as one of the most influential economists of the 20th century. Yet often overlooked is Keynes’s equally significant social and political theory. Preoccupied by the new challenges of democratic politics, Keynes rejected earlier radical vocabularies of freedom and popular power. His innovation, which is not captured by treating him simply as an economist, was to design a new art of government with ‘the economy’...
