Read the following passage and answer question

--- Content provided by‌ FirstRanker.com ---

Decolonization is the encounter between two congenitally antagonistic forces that in fact owe their singularity to the kind of reification secreted and nurtured by the colonial situation. Their first confrontation was coloured by violence and their cohabitation—or rather the exploitation of the colonized by the colonizer—continued at the point of the bayonet and under cannon fire. The colonist and the colonized are old acquaintances. And consequently, the colonist is right when he says he "knows" them. It is the colonist who fabricated and continues to fabricate the colonized subject. The colonist derives his validity, i.e., his wealth, from the colonial system.

Read the following passage and answer question

I have traced parallels between the methods of Morelli, Holmes, and Freud. Freud himself revealed his interest in the adventures of Sherlock Holmes to a patient, the "wolf-man." But in the spring of 1913 to a colleague, Theodor Reik, who had compared the psychoanalytic method to that of Holmes, Freud spoke with admiration of the techniques attributed to Morelli. In each case, infinitesimal traces permit the comprehension of a deeper, otherwise unattainable reality: traces - more precisely, symptoms (in the case of Freud), clues (in the case of Sherlock Holmes), pictorial marks (in the case of Morelli).

"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix, angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night, who poverty and tatters and hollow-eyed and high sat up smoking in the supernatural darkness of cold-water flats floating across the tops of cities contemplating jazz, who bared their brains to Heaven under the El and saw Mohammedan angels staggering on tenement roofs illuminated, who passed through universities with radiant cool eyes hallucinating Arkansas and Blake-light tragedy among the scholars of war"

Read the following passage and answer question

--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---

In their ability to evoke these images of contemporary commonality, however controversial or unstable, the zany, the interesting, and the cute surprisingly behave not unlike the beautiful with respect to Kant's sensus communis. For Kant, the critique of beauty reveals how the faculty of judgement, unlike any other faculty, presupposes the existence of other humans in some kind of collective unity. In order to make an aesthetic judgement, one needs - must somehow already have a concept of the social of some sort. Similarly, the judgements/experiences of zaniness, cuteness, and interestingness all require and call up an idea of human beings with or among human beings in a very specific way: as workers, in a class or multitude; as sympathetic caregivers, in a domestic space; as conversationists, in a public. There is thus perhaps not as much of a divide between the Kantian concept of beauty and our aesthetic categories as one might first think.
