The Fundamental Tendency of Our Time

On the Technological Destiny of the West

Emanuele Severino
Englisch | Taschenbuch

The Fundamental Tendency of Our Times (Tendenza) is the Italian philosopher Emanuele Severino's crucial reflection on modern technology and science, in which he articulates his major contribution to the analysis of Western modernity: the claim that, beginning with Greek civilization, a nihilistic spirit of domination informs our conceptual and social systems. <BR><BR>In this book Severino applies his framework to the geopolitical situation before the fall of the Berlin Wall; yet his insights have continuing relevance in light of the current threat of ecological collapse accelerated by an orientation to the world as an object of exploitation. <BR><BR>Significant for its parallels with, and differences from, Heidegger's discussion of technology, this book's explicit discussion of politics gives essential clarification to Severino's notoriously complex philosophical discourse. With a foreword contextualizing the historical moment of its publication, this first English translation will be invaluable for those interested in understanding the thought of one of the most remarkable Italian theorists of the 20th century.<BR><BR>Published with the kind support of SEPS (Segretariato Europeo per le Pubblicazioni Scientifiche).

Emanuele Severino
The first English translation of Emanuele Severino's radical critique of the notion of identity. Starting from his central intuition that Western culture is essentially nihilism, Emanuele Severino reflects anew on the problem of identity, abandoning the ambiguous (and ultimately contradictory) fashion in which being and becoming are grasped in the Western tradition. In this foundational work in Severino's philosophy, the philosopher questions the dominant understanding of identity in Western culture, tracing it back to Aristotle's definition of identity as 'tautótes'. In his endeavour, Severino discusses - with his particular depth - the most renowned philosophical passages from Hegel, Aristotle, Plato and Kant, presenting a radical critique of identity. This book constitutes part of Severino's monumental theoretical apparatus, comprising a critique of Western metaphysics that sets him alongside Heidegger in contemporary theory. This translation of Tautótes will appeal to those interested in the central problems of Ancient and contemporary philosophy, ontology and metaphysics.

La filosofia dai Greci al nostro tempo. La filosofia moderna
Emanuele Severino
La filosofia abbandona l'essere per incamminarsi sul sentiero ancora inesplorato del pensiero. Inizia la grande sfida della modernità, dal dubbio iperbolico di Cartesio all'ordine geometrico di Spinoza, dalla profondità critica dell'empirismo di Locke, Berkeley e Hume alla rivoluzione copernicana di Kant, fino alla grande stagione dell'idealismo tedesco.
