The book advocates a re-enchantment of the world, a theme already introduced in Földényi’s previous non-fiction work, \u003ci\u003eDostoyevsky Reads Hegel in Siberia and Bursts into Tears\u003c\/i\u003e (2020), and is a logical development of his authoritative \u003ci\u003eMelancholy\u003c\/i\u003e (2016) which gave voice to deep ontological anguish. [Földényi] argues that a fragmentation of the soul is a function of our spiritual disorientation as we, moderns, have forgotten our place in — and connection with — a wider cosmos.\" * Review 31 *","brand":"Seagull Books London Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49406307991895,"sku":"9780857426086","price":20.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780857426086.jpg?v=1730495329","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-glance-of-the-medusa-9780857426086","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
