O knihe


Philosophers are accustomed to thinking about human existence as finiteand deathbound. Anne O'Byrne focuses instead on birth as a way to make sense ofbeing alive. Building on the work of Heidegger, Dilthey, Arendt, and Nancy, O'Byrnediscusses how the world becomes ours and how meaning emerges from our relations togenerations past and to come. Themes such as creation, time, inheritance, birth andaction, embodiment, biological determinism, and cloning anchor this sensitive andpowerful analysis. O'Byrne's thinking advances and deepens important discussions atthe intersections of feminism, continental philosophy, philosophy of religion, andsocial and political thought.
