George's failure as a heterosexual becomes the occasion for Ralph's outing of himself as a sexual omnivore, not less
disquietingly for seeming to take the form of solace.
This argument posits a softer generic divide between these two categories: "both work on the levels of content and form; both of them can trick us in a
disquietingly similar way" [p.
They certainly are not all good artists merely because of such contravention--but some of them are, and all of them are
disquietingly significant in the face of what appears to be a nameless void.
For even if some of the more approving discussions of Patocka's work are skewed by an almost hagiographic esteem, the extraordinary provocativeness of presenting phenomenology in the heretical figure of a latter-day Socrates and secular philosophical martyr should help to reinvigorate forcefully some of the fundamental methodological and metaphilosophical debates that remain
disquietingly open within the tradition--notably, what a phenomenological practice that is at once both critical and transcendental would look like, and just what the dual desiderata of truth and justice would demand of it today.
The former wore stubble and the OBE he received in 2003 pinned to the wrong side of his suit; the latter, a severe navy dress and cap that made her look

(197) "Most jurors accept role responsibility though a
disquietingly large minority do not." (198) And the degree to which jurors feel responsible for the sentencing decision appears to be modestly correlated to the final vote: "[W]e find limited evidence that jurors who impose life sentences accept more responsibility than do jurors who impose death sentences." (199)
Marked by
disquietingly beautiful imagery, this drama should find a place among speciality auds and those who want to stay abreast of developments in Israeli cinema--which, as director Joseph Madmony's film indicates so strongly, seems to be moving away, more and more, from the overtly political/allegorical in favor of the character-driven.
In Zizek's case, there is,
disquietingly, some agreement with the neoconservative Right on political topics, such as the undesirability of multicultural politics (46) and liberal tolerance, (47) the uselessness of sexual harassment regulations and racial vilification laws, (48) the misguided nature of feminist critiques of the traditional authority of the patriarchal father, (49) and the idea that the old Left might have been authoritarian but that the new Left mainly consists of 'politically correct multicultural liberals'.
Croatian writer Neven Usumovic's "Veres" and Polish writer Michal Witkowski's "Didi," on the other hand, offer
disquietingly contemporary glimpses of a Europe seen "from below," with the latter story, in particular, standing out for its focus on a truly abject figure.

My objective is not to make an extemporaneous postmodern intellectual of Prestol, even if such a thing were possible, but rather to understand the relationship between his work and the transition from what Foucalt calls "a symbolics of blood" to an "analytics of sexuality," from a society of "death [...] and sovereignty" to one of "knowledge, life, meaning, the disciplines and regulations," from the fascist biopolitical state to its at times
disquietingly similar liberal progeny (History of Sexuality 148).
But the Moravian voyages brought into focus the
disquietingly wide variety of opinions European Protestants continued to profess on such vital matters.
In interpreting this moment to be as aggressive as it is comically metamorphic, my reading takes its cue from Abel's persuasive comment that Lucy's "fantasied ancestors are rendered monstrous by their agglomerated parts"; in other words, by the fact that Grace becomes not merely a swamp creature but a "vast elephant-bodied, seal-necked, splayfooted, heaving, surging, slowly writhing, baying and [...] barking monster." It is also
disquietingly unclear whether this moment is as fleeting as "glance" would suggest, given the suspension of "actual time" that is the prerequisite of this comic sketch.
