La pratique des arts martiaux est une pensée. Elle est une manière de reconfigurer ce que nous croyons savoir à propos des évidences les plus élémentaires de notre existence : la vie, la mort, l'espace, le temps, la force, le corps. En pratiquant un art martial, ce ne sont pas seulement les gestes et les mouvements qui changent, mais la manière même de voir le monde - la manière même de le réfléchir. Et si ce que peut un corps consistait d'abord à résister à la tentation de la maîtrise ? Et si atteindre un niveau plus élevé de sophistication dans notre rapport à la force impliquait d'abord de l'abandonner ? Et si la puissance véritable était d'abord une impuissance ?Conviant les grands maîtres de l'aïkido autant que Henri Bergson, Ludwig Wittgenstein ou Edmund Husserl, les grands poètes japonais que Spinoza ou Leibniz, Coralie Camilli propose dans ce court essai toute une série de réponses inattendues à ces questions, nourries de sa double expertise martiale et philosophique - des réponses qui restituent les arts du combat à leur horizon fondamental : celui de la sagesse.

While there is a long tradition of research into eddic poetry, including the poems classed as wisdom literature, much of this has approached the subject either as a primarily philological commentary or has addressed literary and thematic topics of individual or small groups of poems. This book offers a wide-ranging enquiry into the defining features of Old Norse wisdom, including the representation of wisdom in texts which cross traditional generic boundaries. It builds on recent advances in understanding of pre-Christian religion in Scandinavia, and calls on comparative and supporting work from several different disciplinary backgrounds (including literary theory, other medieval literatures and anthropology). Speaker and Authority interrogates important questions about the concept of knowledge, as well as its role in medieval Scandinavian society and its broader European cultural context.
