Description Readers' comments
The reflection about cruelty and barbarism in a philosophical context sets itself as one of the most significant links in a debate which emerged in France at the beginning of the Eighties surrounding the Western civilization crisis. Such a reflection represents a long wave of a discussion originating in the first decades of the last century among the so-called «Literature of the crisis». The analyses on the phenomenon of barbarism elaborated by Michel Henry and Jean-François Mattéi by moving from mixed and heterogeneous philosophical views, inaugurate two original interpretations which are both distant but close and which allow us to identify the genetic place of barbarism itself through the reconstruction of its historical and remote causes. The comparison between the philosophical devices controlling Henry and Mattéi’s parallel judgements leads towards a horizon where the stakes are not only about the final meaning of barbarism but the destiny of Modernity itself. keywords Michel Henry, Jean-François Mattéi, Barbarism, Historical and Remote Causes Enter a comment for Le matrici filosofiche della nuova barbarie.
