Seductions of Fate : Tragic Subjectivity, Ethics, Politics Paperback / softback
by G. Basterra
Paperback / softback
Description
If the tragic interpretation of experience is still so current, despite its disastrous ethical consequences, it is because it shapes our subjectivity.
Instead of contradicting the ideals of autonomy and freedom, a modern subjectivity based on self-victimization in effect enables them.
By embracing subjection to an alienating other (the Law, Power) the autonomous subject protects its sameness from the disruption of real people.
Seductions of Fate stages a dialogue between this tragic agent of political emancipation and the unconditional ethical demands it seeks to evade.
