But sensibility is not just a faculty: We are sensible objects both to ourselves and to others, and our life is through and through a sensible life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book, now translated into five languages, rehabilitates sensible existence from its marginalization at the hands of modern philosophy, theology, and politics. Coccia begins by defining the ontological status of images. Not just an internal modification of our consciousness, an image has an intermediate ontological status that differs from that of objects or subjects. The book's second part explores our interactions with images in dream, fashion, and biological facts like growth and generation. Our life, Coccia argues, is the life of images.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emanuele Coccia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fordham University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/29\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Commonalities\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 126\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.4lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780823267422","brand":"Fordham University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43349329117321,"sku":"9780823267422","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_a95c92b7-8c45-4bdc-b015-b7f9871c4006.jpg?v=1739260640","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/sensible-life-a-micro-ontology-of-the-image-9780823267422","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
