Reflections on Jean Amerytorture, resentment, and homelessness as the mind's limits /[electronic resource] :by Vivaldi Jean-Marie. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2018. - xi, 147 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

1. Memory, the Jewish Intellectual, and Cartesian Cogito -- 2. Torture and Homelessness: The Horrible Can Make No Claim to Singularity -- 3. Amery and Nietzsche on Resentment, Collective Guilt, and Historical Revisionism -- 4. Amery and Sartre: The Necessity and Impossibility of Being an Authentic Jew -- 5. Conclusion.

This book elaborates Jean Amery's critique of philosophy and his discussion of some central philosophical themes in At the Mind's Limits and his other writings. It shows how Amery 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 Amery's critique of philosophy, which constitutes his own philosophical testament of being an inmate at Auschwitz. This book situates At the Mind's Limits in the context of twentieth-century Continental philosophy. On the one hand, it elaborates Amery's engagement with key philosophical figures. On the other hand, it shows how thoroughly Amery denounces the limits of the philosophical enterprise, and its impotence in capturing and accounting for the crimes of the Third Reich.
