Homo Natura by Vanessa Lemm (Paperback Book)

Edinburgh University Press

Nietzsche coins the enigmatic term homo natura to capture his understanding of the human being as a creature of nature and tasks philosophy with the renaturalisation of humanity. Following Foucault\u2019s critique of the human sciences, Vanessa Lemm discusses the reception of Nietzsche\u2019s naturalism in philosophical anthropology, psychoanalysis and gender studies. She offers an original reading of homo natura that brings back the ancient Greek idea of nature and sexuality as creative chaos and of the philosophical life as outspoken and embodied truth, perhaps best exemplified by the Cynics\u2019 embrace of social and cultural transformation.\n\nHomo Natura\nNietzsche, Philosophical Anthropology and Biopolitics\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail tracked services.\n\nPlease note: the price advertised is as low as we can go \u2014 we do not accept or respond to offers.
