The Anthropological Mutations of our Time

Mehr zum Buch

Exploring the philosophical question of human definition, the book delves into Socratic thought, particularly the concept of "know thyself," which emphasizes self-awareness and virtue. It contrasts traditional views of humanity as a duality of psyche and soma with Edgar Morin's perspective, which frames humans as "anthropo-cosmic" beings within a complexity paradigm. This approach challenges conventional understandings, inviting readers to reconsider the essence of human nature and its relation to the cosmos.
