Böcker av Claude Romano

The book critically analyzes the subjectivization of time in traditional metaphysics (Plato, Aristotle, Augustine), as well as more recent thought (Bergson, Husserl, Heidegger), and argues that, instead, the guiding thread for the analysis of time ought to be the evential hermeneutics of the human being, developed first in Event and World and deepened and completed here.

The world into which we are born as the horizon of all our behavior is a world both of things and of events. But what are events? Though familiar to all of us, they are philosophically obscure. This title seeks to change that, to describe what sort of phenomenon an event is and to establish how it can be grasped via a phenomenology.
