Philippe-Joseph Salazar () is a French rhetorician and philosopher.〔Confession of a Sometime Opium Eater, ''Philosophy and Rhetoric'', Vol. 45, No. 3, 2012, pp. 335-342.〕 He was born on February 10, 1955 in Casablanca, in what was then French Morocco. Salazar attended Lycée Louis-le-Grand a prestigious secondary school in Paris (founded 1563)() before studying philosophy, politics and literature at the École Normale Supérieure. Currently a distinguished Professor of Rhetoric and Humane Letters at the University of Cape Town. Salazar〔:fr:Philippe-Joseph Salazar〕 writes a regular column on French public intellectual, online magazine ''Les Influences''.(). He is Editor-In-Chief of a series on ''Powers of Persuasion'' at prestigious Klincksieck, the oldest publishing house in the social sciences in France. Founder of AfricaRhetoric Publishing (). Salazar's lifelong achievements made him the recipient of Africa's premier research award in 2008, the Harry Oppenheimer Fellowship Award. ==From orality to voice== As a university student, Salazar studied under Louis Althusser, establishing his membership with the Conférence Olivaint, an exclusive club dedicated to training future leaders, in the Catholic and liberal tradition for public oratory. Afterwards, Salazar completed a voluntary internship at the cultural affairs section of Paris City Hall. Salazar would later pursue his graduate degree, studying metaphor and ontology with Emmanuel Levinas, semiotics of voice with Roland Barthes and political theory with Maurice Duverger. Lacanian psychoanalyst and film theorist Anna Guédy of École Freudienne de Paris further influenced his academic career (lectures on film and voice in Paris), which led to〔"La voix tatouée," ''Psychologie médicale'',18 (8),1986〕 a collaboration to critical theory journal La Cause Freudienne〔“La rétention de la Voix”, ''Lettre mensuelle de l'École Freudienne'', 5, 1985, 8-9〕 with Jacques Lacan and Jacques-Alain Miller. At the prompting of French sociologist Georges Balandier, Salazar travelled to South Africa to undertake field-research on racial rhetoric, which led to a doctoral dissertation in social and cultural anthropology at the Sorbonne University in Paris. The examination copy of his dissertation was blocked by the South African Security Police but sneaked out of the Apartheid state via diplomatic pouch (see preface to his book ''An African Athens'' ()) and eventually published as ''L'Intrigue Raciale: Essai de Critique Anthropologique'' (). He has since retained a strong interest in anthropology. After returning to Paris, Salazar served for a while as Arts and Letters editor of controversial psycho-analytical magazine ''Spirales'', edited by Armando Verdiglione, and worked as an opera critic for ''Opera International'' (), ''Avant-Scène Opera'' (), and ''Lyrica''. He also contributed to leading French conservative-liberal monthly Commentaire.〔“Opéra et Cinéma”, ''Commentaire'', 4(13), 1980〕 His first book ''Idéologies de l'opéra'' (1980) is considered a breakthrough in the field of sociology and anthropology of this art form.〔Monitor ZSA - Revija za zgodovinsko, socialno in druge anthropologije (for Historical, Social and Other Anthropologies ), Vlado Kotnik ed., Special Issue on Reflections on Opera / Reflexions sur l'opéra, 8 (1-2), 2006 ISSN 1854-0376〕 Salazar dedicated the book to his mentor, Germaine Lubin. In 1981, he published his opera ''Icare'' in Islamic poet and psychoanalyst Michel Orcel's literary journal ''L'Alphée'' and contributed to Philippe Sollers's famed avant-garde journal ''L'Infini'' at the prompting of novelist Dominique Rolin .〔“Je le déclare nettement'. La Bruyère Orateur”, ''L'Infini,'' 35, 1991.〕 He has since retained an interest in opera as a social form of knowledge (2000, keynote speaker of cross-cultural event ''Carmen 2000'', SoBe, Miami,〔Interview with Ralph Heyndels, ''Miamigo'', 3, 2000, p. 23.〕 and co-founded Espacio Cultural Triangular with New York photographer Ruben Roncallo ()). This cross-interest in anthropology, philosophy and political theory led him to engage with a newly re-developed field, rhetoric. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Philippe-Joseph Salazar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
