Benjamin Fondane : A Poet-Philosopher Caught Between the Sunday of History and the Existential Monday, Hardback Book

Benjamin Fondane : A Poet-Philosopher Caught Between the Sunday of History and the Existential Monday Hardback

Hardback

Description

Benjamin Fondane: A Poet-Philosopher Caught Between the Sunday of History and the Existential Monday examines the life and work of Benjamin Fondane, a poet and a literary critic, a philosopher and a playwright, who wrote film scripts and worked as a director on the stage as well as in films.

In addition, Fondane was active in two cultures, the Romanian and the French.

His existential philosophy is highly relevant to the domain of contemporary Jewish thought, and his literary activities are linked to the twentieth-century European avant-garde.

This book discusses all of these topics and provides background for the Romanian and French cultural scene of the period as well as locating the writer within the context of the dramatic events of the twentieth century.
