{"title":"Cosmopolitan Localism: Augustine on Place and Contingency","authors":"Elly Long","doi":"10.53765/20512988.44.3.484","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.53765/20512988.44.3.484","url":null,"abstract":"Augustine is not included among the many ancient thinkers that Martha Nussbaum draws upon for her cosmopolitan project. This is surprising both because Augustine is often read as a cosmopolitan and because Nussbaum engages with and critiques him on other related matters, particularly\u0000 the purported 'otherworldliness' of this thought. This article remedies this lack, putting Augustine into conversation with Nussbaum's cosmopolitanism. By investigating Augustine's view of contingency generally and the contingency of place specifically, I show that Augustine's thought supports\u0000 both universal ethical concern of the sort Nussbaum praises and particular attachments to place which Nussbaum has been criticized for lacking. In addition, Augustine's view of contingency avoids the ironism of Richard Rorty's patriotism, which Nussbaum also criticizes. Augustine sees more\u0000 clearly than both Nussbaum and Rorty how particular and universal commitments need not be competitive. Therefore, Augustine is not quite the cosmopolitan thinker that he is often recognized to be, but neither is he the severely otherworldly thinker that Nussbaum reads him as.","PeriodicalId":51773,"journal":{"name":"HISTORY OF POLITICAL THOUGHT","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44490477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Especially Schmitt's realism and Kelsen's positivism have often been taken to instantiate two irreconcilable epistemological poles. Yet little attention has been paid to thinkers who, being at the crossroad of different intellectual traditions, operated within this dichotomy while trying to avoid its most caricatural features. One of these figures is the Italian constitutional theorist CostantinoMortati. While introducing his life and oeuvre to the Anglophone public, this article argues that his work should be read as an attempt to make sense of law's relationship to politics that, although similar to Schmitt's realism, avoids its more pernicious outcomes.","PeriodicalId":51773,"journal":{"name":"HISTORY OF POLITICAL THOUGHT","volume":"40 1","pages":"515-546"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2019-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43249100","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on Aristotle's and Nietzsche's readings of Euripidean tragedy, I will show that Euripides' play brings to the attention of its audience that the Greek democratic ideal of persuasion can also be used by a foreign woman in her demand for justice. Thus, Euripides at once advocates the civic ideals of the Athenian polis and points to its injustices, in particular with regard to women and 'barbarian' foreigners. But at the same time, Euripides emphasizes that Medea's politics of violent revenge demonstrates not only the error in her judgment (hamartia) but also the deeply wounded moral psychology of the oppressed and marginalised people. The article finally examines the contributions of Euripides' tragic storytelling to political theory and democratic citizenship with particular reference to the concepts of justice, hospitality, compassion and 'enlarged mentality'","PeriodicalId":51773,"journal":{"name":"HISTORY OF POLITICAL THOUGHT","volume":"36 1","pages":"209-233"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2015-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70971109","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
