Bøger af Raimond Gaita

Originally published: New York: Routledge, 2003.

To see the world through Raimond Gaita's eyes is to discover, once again, what it means to love the world and to remain faithful to it. He tells us that an unconditional love of the world is the deepest form of hope and the truest source of our energies to honour the demands of justice. This is how we learn to be human.

The voices in this volume, those of philosophers from Britain, Europe, America and Australia, speak in different tones of sympathy and criticism of Winch and his conception of human conditioning.

Drawing on a wealth of examples including the Holocaust and attempts to deny it, the trial of Adolf Eichmann, the taking of children of mixed blood from Aboriginal parents in Australia, and the works of Primo Levi and Simone Weil, Raimond Gaita sets out a new picture of our common humanity.
