Description
Summary:This highly accessible reading of Heidegger's work on technology, art, and ethics provides unique angles on specific works of modern art and architecture. Lack begins with a discussion of Max Weber's analysis of the disenchantment of the world and proceeds to develop Heidegger's philosophy in a way that suggests a "re-enchantment" of the world that faces the modern condition squarely, without nostalgia. The relationships between Heidegger's philosophical analyses of technology, art, and ethics are clearly articulated and connected in a framework for analyzing the modern human condition.
