Book synopsis

This book employs§perspectives from continental philosophy, intellectual history, and literary§and cultural studies to breach the divide between early modernist and modernist§thinkers. It turns to early modern humanism in order to challenge late 20th-century§thought and present-day posthumanism. This book§addresses contemporary concerns such as the moral responsibility of the§artist, the place of religious beliefs in our secular societies, legal rights§extended to nonhuman species, the sense of 'normality' applied to the human§body, the politics of migration, individual political freedom and international§terrorism. It demonstrates how early modern humanism can bring new perspectives§to postmodern antihumanism and even invite us to envision a humanism of the§future.§
