Apology of Narcissus
9.99 €
Boris Groys's new book is devoted to the phenomenon of aestheticization of culture and the human being himself, which is characteristic of modernity, becoming more than ever an object of contemplation. The necessity or even obligation of self-design turns today's society into a narcissistic one. Exploring the experience of the ancient Greek myth, Groys revises the simplistic - and often negative - view of Narcissus as a passive contemplator of his body and recognizes him as one of the symbolic heroes of our era.
