Question

In one book, this concept is compared to the magnets that, in medieval legend, suspend Mohammed’s coffin between heaven and earth. Luce Irigaray analyzed Hegel’s description of women as the “eternal” version of this concept “of the community.” This concept is called a “permanent parabasis” in one of the Lyceum Fragments of Friedrich Schlegel, who theorized the (*) “Romantic” form (15[1])of this concept. The Hegelian term “infinite, absolute negativity” is appropriated (10[1])to (15[1])define this concept (10[2])in a master’s thesis that analyzes (10[2])the depiction of its subject in Aristophanes’ (10[3])Clouds. That book by Soren Kierkegaard analyzes (10[1])this concept (10[1])“with continual (-5[1])reference (10[2])to Socrates.” (10[5])For 10 points, name this subversive (10[1])rhetorical device, (10[1])the use of language (10[1]-5[1])to mean the opposite (10[1])of what it appears (-5[1])to say. (10[1])■END■ (10[3])
