Description
Irving Singer reflects on the trajectory of his thoughts on love and other topics over decades. His earlier work, a three-volume trilogy on love, was initially approached with current philosophical methodology but ultimately drew inspiration from the history of ideas in philosophy and the arts. In this new book, Singer maps the development of his thinking on love, discussing various topics such as romantic love, passion, and its relation to democracy, existentialism, creativity, and scientific investigation. The result is a "partial" summing-up of his lifework, offering insights into his still unfolding views on love. This book provides an in-depth exploration of Singer's thoughts on love, drawing on the work of various philosophers and thinkers, including Freud, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Dewey, Santayana, Sartre.
