The Culture of Disaster

Bag om The Culture of Disaster

From antiquity through the Enlightenment, disasters were attributed to the obscure power of the stars or the vengeance of angry gods. In this title, the author argues that post-Enlightenment culture has been haunted by the sense of emergency that made natural catastrophes and human deeds both a collective crisis and a personal tragedy.
