Philosophers are accustomed to thinking about human existence as
finite and deathbound. Anne O'Byrne focuses instead on birth as a
way to make sense of being alive. Building on the work of
Heidegger, Dilthey, Arendt, and Nancy, O'Byrne discusses how the
world becomes ours and how meaning emerges from our relations to
generations past and to come. Themes such as creation, time,
inheritance, birth and action, embodiment, biological determinism,
and cloning anchor this sensitive and powerful analysis. O'Byrne's
thinking advances and deepens important discussions at the
intersections of feminism, continental philosophy, philosophy of
religion, and social and political thought.
