    21. Jeff Malpas: The Appearance of Place and Heidegger's "Topology of Being"

    Peter speaks with the Australian philosopher Jeff Malpas, emeritus distinguished professor at the University of Tasmania, whose work explores the fundamental role the appearance of place plays in understanding who and what we are. Malpas is the author of numerous books and essays including Place and Experience (Cambridge University Press, 1999) and In the Brightness of Place: Topological Thinking with and After Heidegger (SUNY Press, 2022). In a world increasingly forgetful of the place where we are, Malpas invites us to attend to the “inevitable and unavoidable embeddedness in the environing world where we find ourselves and which determines what we are.” Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/thelandbehind⁠⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/thelandbehindpodcast Timestamps: (00:00) Introduction (00:53) Where is Jeff Malpas?

    20. Edward S. Casey: Place, Body and Emotion

    Peter speaks to the philosopher Edward S. Casey about the philosophy of place and the ecology of emotion, drawing insights from Casey’s book Turning Emotion Inside Out: Affective Life Beyond the Subject (Northwestern University Press, 2021). Central to their discussion is the concept of eco-affectivity, the idea that emotions are deeply rooted in and shaped by our environment. Why then does place matter today? Where do emotions come from? How are our hearts and minds already embedded in the landscape that surrounds us? To what extent is an emotion an environmentally oriented phenomenon? These questions guide a broader reflection on how art can reveal the emotional atmosphere of place in ways that language alone cannot.
