En savoir plus sur le livre

Concentric Space as a Life Principle beyond Schopenhauer, Nietzsche and Ricoeur presents a novel perspective on human experience and the search for meaning through relational space. By reinterpreting foundational ideas from these influential thinkers, it advocates for a deeper understanding of life, self, and other. The book reconceptualizes space as a vital principle for life, revealing common yet overlooked features in the thoughts of Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, and Ricoeur. It provides a fresh spatial interpretation of key themes such as compassion, will to life, Dionysian rapture, will to power, self-overcoming, re-evaluation of values, eternal recurrence, living metaphor, and intersubjectivity. The work proposes a shift from diametric spaces of exclusion to concentric spaces of inclusion, fostering a unifying experiential restructuring. This spatial rereading challenges traditional understandings and offers a unique spatial-phenomenological framework for exploring a life principle. It is aimed at academics, researchers, and postgraduates in philosophy, wellbeing, education, and human development, while also appealing to those in psychology, anthropology, psychoanalysis, and cultural studies due to its interdisciplinary nature.
