THE FACE I CANNOT FULLY SEE: A Philosophy of Love, Ethics, and the People We Never Fully Know - Couverture souple
Livre 3 sur 5: The Boundary Books
Synopsis
You will never fully know the people you love most. Not because you are not paying attention, and not because they are hiding, but because no mind has ever had direct access to another. The Face I Cannot Fully See takes that permanent limit as its starting point and asks what follows for love, trust, and obligation. Moving through friendship, partnership, family, betrayal, forgiveness, loneliness, and grief, and drawing on Emmanuel Levinas, Iris Murdoch, Annette Baier, Hannah Arendt, and contemporary psychology, it argues that the distance between two people is not a problem to be solved but the actual medium love has always worked in. Recurring composite figures carry the argument through a long relationship and a long loss, so the philosophy stays anchored in a kitchen, a hospital room, a funeral. For readers of accessible philosophy and reflective nonfiction who want ideas that touch ordinary life.

THE FACE I CANNOT FULLY SEE : A Philosophy of Love, Ethics, and the People We Never Fully Know
Vendeur : AHA-BUCH GmbH, Einbeck, Allemagne
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - You will never fully know another person. Not your closest friend, not your partner, not the parent who raised you.The Face I Cannot Fully See starts from that uncomfortable fact and asks what actually follows from it. The book's central image is a fogged window, lit from within - you can see a shape moving behind it, but never quite the whole picture. That's not a flaw in how we love people. It's the actual condition of loving anyone at all.Across fourteen chapters, this book moves from the philosophical (why no amount of data could ever tell you what it's like to be someone else) into the intensely personal: what makes a friendship survive decades of silence while another dissolves the moment convenience runs out, why family asks us to stay loyal to people whose inner world we never chose and may never fully understand, and what trust actually is once you realize it was never a rational calculation of risk - it's the decision to stop demanding proof that can never arrive.It doesn't stop at the comfortable parts of intimacy. There are real, clear-eyed chapters on betrayal, on forgiving reasons you'll never completely understand, on the specific grief of losing someone before you'd finished learning who they were, and on what happens when we stop seeing people and start sorting them into categories instead.This is a book for anyone who has ever loved someone and felt, at the same time, the strange vertigo of realizing you'll never see all the way in - and wanted to understand why that doesn't make love smaller, just more honest.What you'll find inside: A clear-eyed philosophy of love, friendship, family, and trust - grounded in real psychology, not just abstractionHonest chapters on betrayal, grief, and forgiveness, not just the comfortable parts of intimacyA close look at how modern life - categorization, algorithms, screens - makes this old problem sharper than ever.
