Description
This Czech-language philosophical book explores love, which the author narrows down to erotic love, so much of the book deals with sexuality. He develops his own understanding of love while also discussing writers and thinkers who have addressed the subject, from Plato through Eugen Fink to Eva Illouz. The author sees love as the supreme expression of corporeality. The Cartesian-sounding title makes clear from the outset that love is the opposite of unquestionable certainty, since through love we enter an extremely uncertain yet most important realm. The chapter titles offer further insight: The Burning Uncertainty of Love; Discipline and Beautiful Uprising; Wingless Love; Love Divided Within Itself; Love Feeds on the Fullness of the Moment; Forms of Transformation; Love, Hatred, Indifference; Love as Passion for Love; Marriage Between a Cooperative Enterprise and Mutual Exploitation; Freedom and Commitment; Amo, quia absurdum; Breaking Continuity; and Love Through the Senses.
