More Radical Hermeneutics

On Not Knowing Who We Are

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Claims that we are not born into this world hard-wired to know Being, Truth, or the Good, and we are not vessels of a Divine, or other omnipotent supernatural force. This animated study by one of America's leading continental philosophers equally tears down and resuscitates religion and philosophy.
