Michel Serres and the Crises of the Contemporary
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-350-16376-8 (ISBN)
This volume is the first to engage with the philosophy of Michel Serres, not by writing ‘about’ it, but by writing ‘with’ it. This is done by expanding upon the urgent themes that Serres works on; by furthering his materialism, his emphasis on communication and information, his focus on the senses, and the role of mathematics in thought. His famous concepts, such as the parasite, ‘amis de viellesse’, and the algorithm are applied in 21st century situations. With contributions from an international and interdisciplinary team of authors, these writings tackle the crises of today and affirm the contemporary relevance of Serres’ philosophy.
