Our Western cultural conversation, as invented by Plato, is made up of a dialectic between unity and diversity. Plato had thought to harmonize the unchangeableness of Parmenides with the constant change of the thinker Heraclitus. He invented this universe in which we have, up until now, been happily living. Unfortunately, the diversity/progressive side of this conversation has now destroyed whatever unity we could ever hope to have. The universe is kaput.

The End of Enlightenment offers a radical re-evaluation of one of the most important moments in human history. Tracing around the world the changing perspectives of economists, philosophers, politicians and polemicists, historian Richard Whatmore argues that, for figures as diverse as David Hume, Edmund Burke, Adam Smith and Mary Wollstonecraft, the Enlightenment was a profound failure.

En base a acusaciones de despilfarro e inutilidad, ha sido progresivamente desplazada de los planes educativos en pro de una enseñanza enfocada en lo técnico y lo útil. Es por eso que el autor se pregunta si efectivamente la enseñanza de la filosofía carece hoy de justificación y sentido.

Die ungeliebte Kaufmannslehre in Hamburg brach er nach dem Tod des Vaters (1805) ab und übersiedelte zur Mutter nach Weimar, wo diese einen literarischen Salon führte und bald zur berühmten Schriftstellerin avancierte. Seit 1809 studierte er in Göttingen Naturwissenschaften, ab 1811 in Berlin Philosophie.

Mit "Also sprach Zarathustra" hat Nietzsche ein faszinierendes Hauptwerk geschaffen, einen Meilenstein der Weltliteratur. In drei zentralen Formeln fasst er seine Philosophie zusammen: der Wille zur Macht, die ewige Wiederkehr des Gleichen und der Übermensch. "Gott ist tot."
