BookPublisher: Hà Nội : Tri thức/Nhã Nam, 2017Description: 392 tr. : ảnh ; 21 cm.ISBN: 9786049434976.Other title: Dangerous lives of the philosophers.Subject(s): Philosophers -- Death | Death -- Social aspects | Cuộc đời nguy hiểm của triết gia -- Triết học | Chết cho tư tưởng -- Triết họcDDC classification: 109.2 Summary: One of the greatest merits of Costica Bradatan's book is that it explores a cluster of topics that represent the untold, the unuttered, almost the unutterable in contemporary philosophy: death, dying, sacrifice and self-sacrifice. Ours is a culture of 'happy endings' and, in this respect, most philosophers of today are the spokespersons of their time. Bradatan is a dissenter. His book approaches death head-on. Indeed, what makes this project fascinating is the fact that, while the book purports to be about 'dying for an idea,' it in fact sings praise to life. Death, in Bradatan's view, is something that brings new meaning to life, a renewed intensity to the act of living. Simon Critchley, New School for Social Research, New York, USA.
