The first translation of the volumes in Michel Serres’ classic ’Humanism’ tetralogy, this ambitious philosophical narrative explores what it means to be human. With his characteristic breadth of references including art, poetry, science, philosophy and literature, Serres paints a new picture of what it might mean to live meaningfully in contemporary society. He tells the story of humankind (from the beginning of time to the present moment) in an attempt to affirm his overriding thesis that humans and nature have always been part of the same ongoing and unfolding history. This crucial piece of posthumanist philosophical writing has never before been released in English. A masterful translation by Randolph Burks ensures the poetry and wisdom of Serres writing is preserved and his notion of what humanity is and might be is opened up to new audiences.

Es probable que haya sido Novalis quien consiguiera llevarlo adelante de la manera más cabal, aportando en igual medida desde la teoría sobre la literatura y desde la creación literaria en sí. En esa intersección, Novalis procuró mostrar mediante ...
