Description
The philosophy of Michel Henry offers a profound reflection on life, challenging conventional understandings and traditional assumptions. Naturalism and objectivity are seen as barriers to accessing the meaning of life.
Henry's phenomenology seeks to uncover a reality that precedes and conditions the natural sciences and even objectivity itself. This book provides an indispensable resource for those approaching Henry's work for the first time or revisiting his ideas, with broad coverage of major themes and new translations of key essays.
The Michel Henry Reader is divided into four parts, each demonstrating the profound implications of Henry's philosophy: for phenomenology, subjectivity, politics, art, language, ethics, and religion. This collection offers a comprehensive introduction to Henry's thought, making it an essential companion for anyone interested in his work.
