- Title
Crítica da razão idolátrica: tentação de Thanatos, necropolítica e sobrevivência.
- Authors
Castelo Branco, Judikael
- Abstract
Ricardo Timm de Souza's Critique of Idolatrous Reason represents, above all, an effort to understand a "sick world". However, it is important to emphasize that it is not merely another diagnostic exercise of this world, that is, it is not just a new approach to the countless problems that surround it, although this task is always relevant. In the work in question, criticism goes beyond the analysis of a sick world and its conditions; it also points to the "state of suspension" characteristic of contemporary philosophical criticism, in the face of a universe full of ideas, images and actions that have transformed the current world into an "immense and infernal machinery of incessant conversion of qualities and singularities into quantities and generalities".
