Description
A penetrating philosophical diagnosis of our contemporary condition, "After Death" by Francois J. Bonnet, presents a disturbing portrait of a society deliriously dreaming itself as eternal, instantaneous, and infinite. As the body is technologically extended in space and time, we are split between our finitude and our doubled presence in a limitless web of signs. This book offers a thought-provoking exploration of how our hyper-present culture colonizes both past and future, prevailing over any sense of duration or appreciation of the "thickness of the real." Bonnet's analysis raises questions about whether we are living in a kind of counterfeit eternity in which we are effectively already dead.
