The Power of Negative Thinking: Cynicism, Technology Evolution, and the Future of Humanity In "The Power of Negative Thinking Benjamin Schreier presents a compelling argument for the importance of cynicism in modern American literature and its relevance to our understanding of the evolution of technology and the future of humanity. Through a detailed analysis of works by Henry Adams, Willa Cather, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Nathanael West, Schreier challenges the common perception of cynicism as selfishness or nihilism, instead positing that it represents a deep-seated desire for certainty and relevance in an increasingly uncertain world. This thought-provoking book offers a fresh perspective on the role of cynicism in shaping our understanding of history, culture, and society, and its potential to unify people in a world torn apart by conflict. Schreier begins by questioning the notion that cynicism is fundamentally different from classical outlooks such as Diogenes', arguing that both share a skepticism towards the ability of social norms to determine cultural identity and regulate social practices.
Сила негативного мышления: цинизм, эволюция технологий и будущее человечества В работе «Сила негативного мышления» Бенджамин Шрайер представляет убедительный аргумент в пользу важности цинизма в современной американской литературе и его актуальности для нашего понимания эволюции технологий и будущего человечества. Благодаря детальному анализу работ Генри Адамса, Уиллы Кэсер, Ф. Скотта Фицджеральда и Натанаэля Уэста, Шрайер бросает вызов общему восприятию цинизма как эгоизма или нигилизма, вместо этого утверждая, что он представляет собой глубоко укоренившееся стремление к определённости и актуальности во всё более неопределённом мире. Эта книга, заставляющая задуматься, предлагает новый взгляд на роль цинизма в формировании нашего понимания истории, культуры и общества, а также его потенциал для объединения людей в мире, раздираемом конфликтами. Шрайер начинает с того, что ставит под сомнение представление о том, что цинизм принципиально отличается от классических взглядов, таких как у Диогена, утверждая, что оба разделяют скептицизм в отношении способности социальных норм определять культурную идентичность и регулировать социальные практики.
pouvoir de la pensée négative : le cynisme, l'évolution de la technologie et l'avenir de l'humanité Dans son ouvrage « pouvoir de la pensée négative », Benjamin Schreier présente un argument convaincant sur l'importance du cynisme dans la littérature américaine moderne et sa pertinence pour notre compréhension de l'évolution de la technologie et de l'avenir de l'humanité. En analysant en détail les œuvres d'Henry Adams, de Will Caser, de F. Scott Fitzgerald et de Nathanael West, Schreier récuse la perception générale du cynisme comme de l'égoïsme ou du nihilisme, affirmant plutôt qu'il représente un désir profondément enraciné de certitude et de pertinence dans un monde de plus en plus incertain. Ce livre, qui fait réfléchir, propose une nouvelle vision du rôle du cynisme dans la formation de notre compréhension de l'histoire, de la culture et de la société, ainsi que de son potentiel à rassembler les gens dans un monde déchiré par les conflits. Schreier commence par remettre en question l'idée que le cynisme diffère fondamentalement des attitudes classiques, comme celle de Diogène, en affirmant que les deux partagent un scepticisme quant à la capacité des normes sociales à définir l'identité culturelle et à réglementer les pratiques sociales.
poder del pensamiento negativo: cinismo, evolución de la tecnología y futuro de la humanidad En la obra poder del pensamiento negativo, Benjamin Schreier presenta un argumento convincente sobre la importancia del cinismo en la literatura estadounidense moderna y su relevancia para nuestra comprensión de la evolución de la tecnología y el futuro de la humanidad. A través de un análisis detallado de las obras de Henry Adams, Willa Caser, F. Scott Fitzgerald y Nathanael West, Schreier desafía la percepción general del cinismo como egoísmo o nihilismo, argumentando en cambio que representa un deseo profundamente arraigado de certeza y relevancia en todo un mundo más incierto. Este libro, que nos hace reflexionar, ofrece una nueva visión del papel del cinismo en la formación de nuestra comprensión de la historia, la cultura y la sociedad, así como de su potencial para unir a las personas en un mundo desgarrado por los conflictos. Schreier comienza cuestionando la noción de que el cinismo es fundamentalmente diferente de las opiniones clásicas como la de Diógenes, argumentando que ambos comparten el escepticismo sobre la capacidad de las normas sociales para definir la identidad cultural y regular las prácticas sociales.
Die Macht des negativen Denkens: Zynismus, Technologieentwicklung und die Zukunft der Menschheit Benjamin Schreier liefert in „Die Macht des negativen Denkens“ ein überzeugendes Argument für die Bedeutung des Zynismus in der zeitgenössischen amerikanischen Literatur und seine Relevanz für unser Verständnis der Technologieentwicklung und die Zukunft der Menschheit. Durch eine detaillierte Analyse der Werke von Henry Adams, Willa Kaeser, F. Scott Fitzgerald und Nathanael West fordert Schreier die allgemeine Wahrnehmung von Zynismus als Egoismus oder Nihilismus heraus und behauptet stattdessen, dass er ein tief verwurzeltes Verlangen nach Gewissheit und Relevanz in einer zunehmend unsicheren Welt darstellt. Dieses zum Nachdenken anregende Buch bietet eine neue Perspektive auf die Rolle des Zynismus bei der Gestaltung unseres Verständnisses von Geschichte, Kultur und Gesellschaft sowie sein Potenzial, Menschen in einer von Konflikten zerrissenen Welt zusammenzubringen. Schreier beginnt damit, die Vorstellung in Frage zu stellen, dass sich Zynismus grundlegend von klassischen Ansichten wie Diogenes unterscheidet, und argumentiert, dass beide eine Skepsis gegenüber der Fähigkeit sozialer Normen teilen, kulturelle Identität zu definieren und soziale Praktiken zu regulieren.

Negatif Düşüncenin Gücü: nizm, Teknolojinin Evrimi ve İnsanlığın Geleceği "Negatif Düşüncenin Gücü'nde Benjamin Schreier, çağdaş Amerikan edebiyatında sinizmin önemi ve teknolojinin evrimi anlayışımızla ilgisi için zorlayıcı bir argüman sunuyor. ve insanlığın geleceği. Henry Adams, Willa Cather, F. Scott Fitzgerald ve Nathanael West'in eserlerinin ayrıntılı analizi yoluyla Schreier, sinizmin egoizm veya nihilizm olarak genel algısına meydan okuyor, bunun yerine giderek belirsizleşen bir dünyada kesinlik ve alaka için köklü bir arzuyu temsil ettiğini savunuyor. Bu düşündürücü kitap, tarih, kültür ve toplum anlayışımızı şekillendirmede sinizmin rolü ve çatışmalarla dolu bir dünyada insanları bir araya getirme potansiyeli üzerine yeni bir bakış açısı sunuyor. Schreier, sinizmin Diogenes'inki gibi klasik görüşlerden temelde farklı olduğu fikrini sorgulayarak başlar ve her ikisinin de sosyal normların kültürel kimliği tanımlama ve sosyal uygulamaları düzenleme yeteneği konusunda şüpheciliği paylaştığını savunur.
قوة التفكير السلبي: السخرية، وتطور التكنولوجيا، ومستقبل الإنسانية في «قوة التفكير السلبي»، يقدم بنيامين شراير حجة مقنعة لأهمية السخرية في الأدب الأمريكي المعاصر وأهميتها لفهمنا لتطور التكنولوجيا و مستقبل البشرية. من خلال التحليل التفصيلي لأعمال هنري آدامز وويلا كاثر وإف سكوت فيتزجيرالد وناثانائيل ويست، يتحدى شراير التصور العام للسخرية على أنها أنانية أو عدمية، بدلاً من ذلك يجادل بأنها تمثل رغبة عميقة الجذور في اليقين والأهمية في عالم غير مؤكد بشكل متزايد. يقدم هذا الكتاب المثير للتفكير منظورًا جديدًا لدور السخرية في تشكيل فهمنا للتاريخ والثقافة والمجتمع، وإمكاناته للجمع بين الناس في عالم يمزقه الصراع. يبدأ شراير بالتشكيك في فكرة أن السخرية تختلف اختلافًا جوهريًا عن الآراء الكلاسيكية مثل آراء ديوجين، بحجة أن كلاهما يشترك في الشكوك حول قدرة الأعراف الاجتماعية على تعريف الهوية الثقافية وتنظيم الممارسات الاجتماعية.
