The Persistence of Purgatory

Mehr zum Buch

The study explores the profound impact of time on modern society, particularly in the context of American culture. It connects contemporary views on time to the historical concepts of purgatory, arguing that the prevalent feeling of time scarcity reflects deeper social character traits influenced by this 'purgatorial complex.' Fenn's analysis offers a thought-provoking perspective on how these attitudes shape our lives and societal interactions.
