The first translation of the volumes in Michel Serres' classic
'Humanism' tetralogy, this ambitious philosophical narrative
explores what it means to be human. With his characteristic breadth
of references including art, poetry, science, philosophy and
literature, Serres paints a new picture of what it might mean to
live meaningfully in contemporary society. He tells the story of
humankind (from the beginning of time to the present moment) in an
attempt to affirm his overriding thesis that humans and nature have
always been part of the same ongoing and unfolding history. This
crucial piece of posthumanist philosophical writing has never
before been released in English. A masterful translation by
Randolph Burks ensures the poetry and wisdom of Serres writing is
preserved and his notion of what humanity is and might be is opened
up to new audiences.
