Recenzii
Surprising,
illuminating
.
.
.
one
of
the
many
pleasures
of
reading
Calasso
is
to
follow
the
bumper-car
ride
of
his
thinking,
as
he
caroms
off
this
and
that
totemic
figure
dotted
about
the
intellectual
fairground
The ninth in Mr. Calasso's kaleidoscopic series of investigations into the spiritual biography of the secular West . . . the two long essays inThe Unnamable Presentexamine the effects of novel and often dangerous mythologies-democracy, nationalism, Darwinism, race theory- in 20th-century Europe . . . he handles the events of the past with the reverence of a priest, rather than the dispassion of a historian. Material facts are the tangible aspect of hidden truths
A public intellectual in the great European tradition, whose new book attempts to define the era we're currently living through
I love Roberto Calasso's writing: it'srigorous,elusive, andexpansive.The Unnamable Presentcontinues his austere, zigzagging history of the world, but the difference is that now he's examining the supermodern - and this shift would I guess be a moment for pure celebration, were his conclusions not so inescapable and so terrifying
Calasso's erudition is dazzling . . . his assertions come in short, verbless sentences, darting from historical moment to historical moment, alighting on a person, a place, a topic, before moving briskly on
This slim but wide-ranging philosophical inquiry extends the Italian author's series on the roots of modernity, with particular attention to moral relativism
