Professor Griffin’s courses include:
CTSJ 180:愚蠢
愚蠢 is neither ignorance nor organicity, 而是, a corollary of knowing and an element of normalcy, the double of intelligence rather than its opposite. It is an artifact of our nature as finite beings and one of the most powerful determinants of human destiny. 愚蠢 is always the name of the Other, and it is the sign of the feminine. This course in Critical Psychology follows the work of Friedrich Nietzsche, 吉尔·德勒兹, 最近, Avital Ronell, in a philosophical examination of those operations and technologies that we conduct in order to render ourselves uncomprehending. 愚蠢, which has been evicted from the philosophical premises and dumbed down by psychometric psychology, has returned in the postmodern discourse against Nation, 自我, and Truth and makes itself felt in political life. 本课程探讨愚蠢.
