This volume of essays explores the bases and significant aspects of
the thought of contemporary French philosopher, historian of ideas,
and novelist Chantal Delsol. A member of the French Academy of
Moral and Political Sciences, she is well known in France as a
political analyst and cultural diagnostician. This collection is
the first book-length treatment of her thought available in
English, bringing together studies that analyze her work. In
between, essays present her remarkable portrait of human beings
increasingly characteristic of Western societies, as well as her
defense of the human person rightly understood. An exposition of
the virtues of her conception of the family, as well as her
analysis of contemporary "matriarchy," complements those
treatments. The authors highlight her unique mode of cultural
analysis, together with her stout defense of genuine political
life. The volume also includes translations of two chapters of her
fundamental work of philosophical anthropology, Qu'est-ce que
l'homme?, appearing here for the first time in English. A
thoughtful examination of Delsol's work, this book provides new
resources to those studying this French philosopher and author.
