Description:This book elaborates Jean Am�ry's critique of philosophy and his discussion of some central philosophical themes in At the Mind's Limits and his other writings. It shows how Am�ry elaborates the shortcomings and unfitness of philosophical theories to account for torture, the experience of homelessness, and other indignities, and their inability to assist with overcoming resentment. It thus teases out the philosophical import of Jean Am�ry's critique of philosophy, which constitutes his own philosophical testament of being an inmate at Auschwitz. This book situates At the Mind's Limits in the context of twentieth-century Continental philosophy. On the one hand, it elaborates Am�ry's engagement with key philosophical figures. On the other hand, it shows how thoroughly Am�ry denounces the limits of the philosophical enterprise, and its impotence in capturing and accounting for the crimes of the Third Reich.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
