Ainars Kamolins's "Diaries: Spinoza‘s Poetics"
Van de boekpresentatie die afgelopen vrijdag in Vilnius in Litouwen plaats vond, verschenen wel berichten via Google (hier en hier) en Facebook. Daaruit stel ik dit blog samen.
Diaries: Spinoza’s Poetics invites us to read the Ethics as a literary fiction, conceive an ethical rewriting of Charles Bukowski (alcoholism more geometrico), spy on Spinoza’s sadistic insect games, witness the transformation of poetics to politics and back, ponder a theater of plants (asparagus, ivy, and two cacti), copy the miming of the mimosa bush (Ponge and Derrida), follow the author on a not quite successful trip to The Hague, and imagine Spinoza in Cabaret Voltaire.

Ainârs Kamoliòš (b. 1980) has obtained an MA degree in philosophy from the University of Latvia. Kamoliòš’s main academic interests concern questions raised by early modern philosophers. He has elaborated on these in a number of publications and conference papers in Latvia and abroad (Russia, Finland, Estonia, Germany, Poland). Since 2000 Kamoliòš has worked as a teacher and lecturer in a number of local colleges and universities. In 2008 he participated in a biotech-art workshop organized by Symbiotica in Stavanger, Norway and since then he has become more interested in biology, natural and exact sciences and the ways these are linked to philosophical theories.[Cf.]
