This book elaborates Jean Améry's critique of philosophy and his discussion of some central philosophical themes inAt the Mind's Limitsand his other writings. It shows how Améry elaborates the shortcomings and unfitness of philosophical theories to account for torture, the experience of homelessness, and other indignities, and their inability to assist with overcoming resentment. It thus teases out the philosophical import of Jean Améry's critique of philosophy, which constitutes his own philosophical testament of being an inmate at Auschwitz. This book situatesAt the Mind's Limitsin the context of twentieth-century Continental philosophy. On the one hand, it elaborates Améry's engagement with key philosophical figures. On the other hand, it shows how thoroughly Améry denounces the limits of the philosophical enterprise, and its impotence in capturing and accounting for the crimes of the Third Reich. | Reflections On Jean Amery by Vivaldi Jean-Marie, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
